    Every competitive player in every fighting game has a meltdown over huge patches. Tekken veterans haven’t been happy with how aggressive Tekken 8 is compared to 7. Sounds like the new patch has many buffs making characters even more powerful to run their gameplan.

      Yeah it sounds like a lot of people were hoping they would buff defense options. They gave a slight buff to sidestepping and then proceeded to buff offense even more.

        Tekken 8 already being an aggressive game, it’s crazy that they’d double down on that idea. Some feel like defensive play & neutral is a lost art. Players think SF6 is also too aggressive with drive rush but I don’t think it compares to Tekken 8.

        Playing roulette & hoping the dev doesn’t ruin the game you put hundreds of hours into lol. I’ve been playing Third Strike & Killer Instinct lately. No patches coming for them!
