No Tifa? Are they actually retarded?

 

[NeverYouMind]

Please close this thread. Everyone in Tekken thread is already grieving.

 

[ByWatterson]

Can he come to PS5 Pro already?

 

[Synless]

It’s been said, but how did they fuck this up?

It was Tifa, always fucking Tifa… no one asked for this fuck.

 

[Sub_Level]

I liked FFXVI but should have been Tifa lol. Dumbasses.

 

[CosmicComet]

Clive is my favorite ff character of all time. But this is just as stupid as Noctis being in Tekken last time.

Both characters are fit for Soul Calibur

 

[Cynexius]

Licensing Tifa or Cloud would have been too expensive. Clive was probably on discount.

[Agent_4Seven]

Duuuuude! Clive? For real? GTFO! Benedikta or Barnabas could've been a much better fit if they decided on XVI.

 

[Doom85]

 

[DoktorCoktor]

It's for exposure. FFXVI is the latest entry and they want more people to buy it.

I hope Tekken 9 is a reboot focused on street fighting and martial arts. I love FFXVI and T8 but I really hate the direction that Tekken is moving in artistically.

 

[Griffon]

Why...

 

[RayHell]

Next stop, the most beloved character from the Zelda Franchise

Spoiler: spoiler

Navi

You'll have more gods and fights in space in Tekken 9 and you'll like it!!! I miss the more grounded martial arts feel of the series aswell.

New VF has real potential though if it is a success maybe Harada will dial it down for T9 fingers

 

[Barakov]

Whaterver, Square. WHATEVER.

 

[Paltheos]

Joining the chorus. This is dumb as fuck. Who the fuck wants Clive? Why do you do this, Square-Enix, why?

Tifa fits Tekken like a glove.

 

[consoul]

As if they're gonna wrap up season 1 with Tifa.
That's how they get you to buy season 2.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Clive would have made more sense for something like Soul Calibur. Tifa would have been a perfect fit for Tekken. Square being Square and continues to make dumb decisions.

 

[EruditeHobo]

Just about the worst possible decision IMO.

Very, very disappointing.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Yeah this is just lame, like Tekken 8 itself.

 

[Hyet]

It took a miracle for them to include FF stuff in Smash but seems like it takes no effort from Tekken. Tifa will probably come in a new season to maintain interest.

 

[Truth Be Told]

Complete surprise, lmao!

But the Tekken team has put it in the work. The character and the stage are spectacular.

 

[Danjin44]

I still think Tifa which much more about hand to hand combat fits better in Tekken than Noctis or Clive.

[Unknown Soldier]

Yes, adding a sword using character to a game where people fight unarmed is a good idea

Too bad Soul Calibur is dead and they couldn't just add Clive to that

If I played a modern Soul Calibur I would be equally pissed that they added an unbalanced character that has the particle effects meant for unplayable bosses.

P.S. All the streamer personalities are embracing trashy content for engagement as it improves their bottom line.
