Hello I am very excited to play this video game, The Tekken Seven I think I'm gonna try to break out of my comfort zone in this one a little and go with a char that's not a normie, I'm leaning towards Steve right now. Of course we all know I'll go running back to Lars/Jin within a month, but a man can dream.

Steve is hard right? I'm too scared to play anyone complicated

Dang, I haven't payed these games since 5 and now I feel like playing Tekken. Is using PS Now a good way to play Tekken Tag Tournament 2? Also, the Law in this game is Marshall, right? So what did his idiot son do this time?

While Steve is more technical due to peekaboo stance and his attacks having dodge/movement elements, most of the depth I hear about the Tekken series comes from the many, many small and precise situations that arrive constantly during a game. If you're off axis by a little bit, that one combo you work your rear end off to do might not work right. Recognizing when things are going to be weird like that is where experience comes in. If that statement is accurate, then it's safe to say the game is more about the varied situations than it is about the characters. At least, that is probably true for the kind of play we'll be seeing as we learn. Even if you're playing someone complex, you'll probably do just fine picking up a basic routine of combos and not worry/focus about how to execute all of his unique maneuvers. It probably gets said every fighting game thread, but I've never been too fond of the stigma associated with playing "common, basic" characters either. No shame in switching. It's more important to get a few hours of fighting in on some kind of regular basis than it is who we're using anyways.

Jmcrofts posted:Steve is hard right? I'm too scared to play anyone complicated He's hard in a sense that he has a big moveset and a lot of the moves are very specific. He's a pressure character, so it helps if you know good fundamentals. His punishment isn't great in a lot of situations, so you're reliant in your ability to go forward and force the game His combos seem a bunch easier in Tekken 7 though.

I'm probably going to focus on a new main this time around and Steve is one of the ones I'm looking at. I like Feng's style too, but I don't know much about him.

King seems to have a pretty simple hit confirm into that dash throw and that looks extremely satisfying to pull off. Also, how's Law? I haven't seen any high level play of him, but I might want to check him out too.

If you're off axis by a little bit, that one combo you work your rear end off to do might not work right. Recognizing when things are going to be weird like that is where experience comes in. I think you're half right but it's not the whole story. Yes, super specific knowledge of situations and strings is a big part of why experience matters, but generally when people say a certain character isn't good for beginners, it's for one of these reasons: 1. The character has high execution requirements that are a core part of their gameplay at higher levels (Mishimas, Nina, King, Bryan) 2. The character relies on a complex system of parlor tricks or highly situational moves that work insofar as they subvert what other characters are expected to do (Yoshi, Ling, Hwoarang, Raven, Capos, etc.) 3. The character just has kind of an overwhelming set of options that's a lot to take on as a newcomer (Hwoarang, King, maybe Steve) If you're new to Tekken, characters from category 1 will turn the steep learning curve into a brick wall. If you're ready to just go beast mode on practice and not give up, you can still learn the game and be effective with those characters, especially if you're already pretty good at other FGs. I think Zerp more or less started with TTT2, and saw reasonable success playing Mishimas, for example. Characters from category 2 are just more likely to have lots of goofy poo poo that will distract you from really learning the game right, and as soon as the parlor tricks don't work on someone, you'll have no idea what to do because you don't actually know which of your moves are good. Again, you can pick one of these characters, but someone who says "I've never played Tekken but I really want to be Yoshimitsu" is someone I don't think is ever going to be very good at Tekken. Category 3 is probably the least pernicious, provided you can just focus on getting down some of the basics and be patient about building out your skillset. King has like the biggest move list in the game, but you don't have to be able to iSW to play him at low/mid level, and you don't need to memorize every chain throw or learn every move. Jmcrofts posted:Steve is hard right? I'm too scared to play anyone complicated So with all the above being said, Steve doesn't have harsh execution requirements and he's not a monkey cheese character like Yoshi or Ling. He just has an unusual mechanic in that his kick buttons are dodges, but I think you can totally pick him up as a first or second character and learn to work with him.

Feng is a very fundamentally solid character, who you can get fancy with his autoblock stances if you're looking to style on people.

Is there a story reason Nina is in a wedding dress? Or does that remain to be seen, and for now it's just about people fantasizing about finally marrying the woman they've been dreaming about since she was this

We don't know a whole bunch about the story mode, but she appears to have another, more traditional outfit as well.

Man, the best thing Street Fighter 5 ever accomplished was getting me really excited to play Tekken 7. It's been so long waiting for this loving thing to come out but I'm ready to bash my head into the brick wall and try to learn this. Does anyone know if King kept his Kazuchika Okada attire and Rain Maker from the Arcade version? I'd read that Harada was doubtful about the NJPW content seeing console release but then those customization mode clips from the console build had the NJPW Bullet Club shirt so I'm hopeful. In either case, I'm down for the ANGER of BEAST.

I haven't seen any high level play of him, but I might want to check him out too. The new juggle system has made ending combos with shining wizard easier than ever. Law is one of the best characters in the game right now and can do huge damage if you master some of his stance transitions.

I wish I didn't enjoy Xiaoyu as much as I do because she's great fun but somewhat complicated and I can never find the time to actually learn her poo poo properly.

The only Bronson lore I know is the Viscant story where he talks about an ex-gf or roommate or whatever did a report on him for a college class where he (Bronson) claimed that his skill came from the fact that he masturbated daily

People used to constantly confuse me for Bronson bc motherfuckers can't read so when I was finally playing against him at the local arcade he pulled out his ID to prove to me he was actually Bronson and I scumbag won the round while he was putting it back in his wallet. But anyway Bronson is secretly a cool guy irl who just fucks around a lot and doesn't take games super serious, but when I ran into him at Evo years later he still recognized me and we caught up for a bit. He's a good guy.

Gonna share some generally important lessons for newer peeps that I've learned from playing Tekken and 3D fighting games in general over the years . Some/all of this might seem super obvious but I promise each of these bullet points was a genuine fuckin' epiphany for me at some point:
I hope that's helpful to somebody! Please ask questions if anything is unclear.
