    Eddy is the first of four DLC characters for Season 1 of Tekken 8. And… what’s this? The next character was just announced this morning. I don’t want to have to make a whole separate news post for that. So look:

    Lidia is Tekken 8’s next DLC fighter. She’s coming this summer, say the developers on Twitter.

    Honest lazy journalism, hahaha.

    part of the reason this happens is because Tekken (and Smash) are popular to casual audiences, many of which often are one trick ponies and disconnect when they lose looking for another player to attempt to beat with their one trick, without attenpting to learn arguably the most important skill in fighting games, adaptation. its a large factor in why the online experience in both games are kinda trashy, because a decent chunk of them dont take losing gracefully.

    Just saw a match between the bot and someone who made his Feng character look like Hitler, and I was glad to see at least the viewers wanted the Hitler looking Feng to lose; gamers possibly getting better?

    Eddy Gordo has been this way since his inception in Tekken 3. We had a house rule banning him unless you were someone’s much younger sibling.
