NuRedarc shows just how good the original melty arc was, although it's not quite the same, they've added a long slit because they just have to show off her legs and her sweater seems to be molded to her breasts for some reason

Oh dang, really? I don't get that impression at all from the trailer they released, it looks like she's got cool dashy combos and dunks people into the ground with her air throw

Guess I'm less interested in her then unless they've changed that

So I guess Red Arcueid is the equivalent of Orochi/Riot Iori?

He's touched on it before and mentions it in that thread but BN straight up hates him. He puts out probably the best guides/content I've seen in any game regardless of genre and BN hate his guts for it.

arcueid is one of the most powerful vampires, but she tries to restrain her bloodlust. thus she sleeps for hundreds of years and only wakes up to go beat up noted evil vampire roa whenever he resurrects, because thats a thing roa can do.

red arcueid is her fully giving into her vampiric side.

red arc is a zoner but she doesnt stay at full screen, her deal is that she uses zoning to get in on the opponent via controlling their space. red arc is strong zoning, the best air-to-air normals in the game, and insanely strong pressure, with the weakness being her ground game and ability to get out of the opponent's pressure, rather than just 'good at zoning, bad in melee.' so the cool dashy combos and dunks are a big part of her gameplan even in mbaa.

at least this is true of c-red arc who seems to be the moon this red arc is most based on

what does it mean for bandai-namco to "hate" someone?

genuine question because i know absolutely nothing about this situation or the tekken community. is he like, barred from tournaments for stupid reasons constantly or something?

Oh dang ok, thanks for the info. She sounds like the kind of character I'll have to try out then.

I love playing strong pressure characters with flashy conversions and stuff. Right now I'm thinking the characters I should try are Noel, Akiha for the set play and red arc. Maybe that Roa dude for his apparently crazy mid attack game?

Honestly though I'm really just looking for someone who plays similarly to Wagner in UNIST (and UNICLR too though she's pretty different there)

IIRC, it's because, and don't quote me on this, I could be incorrect, the character designer, and this is just a guess on my part, but I have a strong suspicion about it, loving sucks.

EDIT: Also it just occurred to me that Roa's full name is Michael Roa Valdamjong. Meaning everyone calls Roa by his middle name, which in some cases is fine, but Michael is also a perfectly fine name to call someone by, and you can even shorten it to Mike.

Mike the Vampire.

Yeah he basically made the best tekken content with great editing and production. That thread is wild, talking about massive corporate corruption and how BN doesn't like their podcast (which makes sense because its a terrible podcast, but who cares?)

This seems more like a personal issue and it's sad he's dropping the game because its some of the most helpful content out there

I actually don't know why people use Roa over Michael but it's probably because he was called Roa 99% of the time in Tsukihime?

i dont think anyone even uses roa's full name in tsukihime, im pretty sure it was only revealed in an infobook years after the fact. same with nrvnqsr's real name (fabro rowan)

He has a vod from a stream he did a few months ago that I can try to track down later where he gives specific examples of lower level bamco employees expressing interest in having his content put on official TWT streams instead of those stupid "blast from the past" sets to have short tutorial content as the breaks between games, and as soon as it gets up the chain a bit it gets completely shut down. Also, Harada and the Tekken twitter account now and then retweet that some random Joe Schmoe is streaming or like a youtube video or something but have never promoted his content. The way he described it in the video was that upper management take offense to the fact that he makes tutorials of their game and they feel like it shouldn't be necessary because Tekken is perfect and explains itself just fine.

A lot of it boils down to he feels like bamco should be promoting him and helping him out which is a matter of opinion and they're under no obligation to do so, but they probably should have by now. I'm obviously heavily biased in his favor because he makes great guides that are the primary reason I made it past the initial hump of getting the game and bamco is a company.

And the "inner circle" he keeps talking about is absolutely ten/o and everyone involved with them. If you aren't ten/o, bamco won't work with you.

I'm not familiar with the situation at all and I don't watch any Tekken stuff but I feel like there are perfectly good reasons for higher ups to not want to put a random youtuber's content in official streams that aren't them holding a weird grudge.

Nazzadan
Jun 22, 2016



Yeah I agree, idk if he's going to elaborate more. In that VOD I mentioned (that I now can't find), he said there was stuff he couldn't/wouldn't talk about so not sure if that'll ever surface. I'm just bummed hes done making content for Tekken, but I'll watch whatever he puts out just to pass the time and see well produced videos.

remember when they pissed a bunch of people off by giving Some Influencers™ access to a big patch early, except like half of them weren't tekken players, or even FG players at all. that was weird. namco does weird poo poo sometimes.

No one man should have all that Psycho-Power.

No company owes you anything if you are an influencer, yet I do know it can really sting and suck when you see yourself getting passed over for the pre-ordained company favourites/"inner circle" as it were.

From my experience Bandai Namco is the absolute worst of all the FG companies though for dealing with the public/content creators.

It’s basically the same as the guy pissed that disney didn’t invite him to Star Wars land eventhough he’s been a fan for a whole 5 years

Okay not quite the same since that Star Wars guy didn’t produce anything of worth and was FAR more of a pathetic baby about it, but same basic principle.
