SPECIAL TOURNAMENT ALERT 
I am planning an h/kappa TEKKEN 8 WEEK 1 TOURNAMENT 
I am pretty excited for Tekken 8 
For those not in the know, T8 releases on January 26th 
and it is looking FEATURE RICH 
I have seen many people over the past year mentioning that they play Tekken (why aren't you neighbors signing up for the monthly /h/kappa tourney? 
)
Consider this me putting out the feelers for this (potential) tourney; T8 will have crossplay, so platform is not an issue.
If you are planning to pick up T8 on release, even casually, please make yourselves heard in the comments 
/h/kappa didn't exist yet when SF6 came out AFAIK, so this could be our FIRST HUGE TOURNEY FOR A BRAND NEW, MASSIVE RELEASE 
I don't have details for the tourney yet, again I'm putting out the feelers, but if a decent amount of people are down, I will start planning the bracket (and collecting prizepool donations )
The tourney would be a week after release, so somewhere around February 2-4
IT'LL BE FUN GUYS, COME ON

Because I didn't want to spend DC on a ping
Also just assumed that with such a big series as Tekken, there's probably casuals who aren't subbed to /h/kappa, so more reach in the vidya hole

Mentioning MORON KOMBAT in a thread about Tekken is disgraceful and blasphemous
Both are shitty series in their own cute ways, but Tekken is still a super complex and respected FG, even if the community is maybe the most r-slurred out of the entire FGC
Seriously though, I skipped MK1 as well, and I don't blame anyone for not picking up a 70€ game, but Tekken is super popular so I figured I'd ask

Thanks for the games!
On 4rd strike... It was originally a joke mod released as a parody of the actual mod 4th strike, due to it's beta being notorious for being ridiculous with it's changes. Both were announced around the time of online edition was revealede. 2010 there about. Development of 4th strike ended early, as the guy gave up on it, and instead 4rd strike tried to become a serious mod. That's how 4rd strike arranged edition came to be.

We usually play on fightcade (see the recent tourney thread on /h/kappa from
@Geralt_of_Android16), it's all free and you make an account on fightcade.
For T8, we would obviously need to use our steam/playstation accounts though, but that's not too bad of a doxx is it?

We don't even play Tekken in the /h/kappa tourneys, we play random old 2D games on fightcade
In December we played 3rd Strike, it was SOOOO fun
The vast majority of players in the /h/kappa tourneys are dog water at FGs as well, we just wanna have fun and bring the coomunity together!

I like Tekken a lot hands down one of my favourite games as I've played it since Tekken 2 but I don't play it much not even unlocked all the characters on Tekken 7.
Kazuya Devil Heaven's Door best move ever.

I have literally never played a match against another human being in Tekken, I only have about 5ish hours in T7 purely fricking around in training mode
All skill levels are welcome! It's a week 1 tourney so almost everyone will be butt anyways, I literally just want to know if there's interest in a tourney like this
Also, Kazuya is looking VERY strong in T8, people have already found some disgusting tech in the demo

Wtf people play Tekken on there own
I've only ever played VS mode and some story on the earlier ones I wasn't aware it was even a thing.
I don't watch trailers it's just the best bits really rather just see the general consensus or try it myself.
All the best though hopefully the tourney works out

I looked it up and it looks like this is one of those dumb fighting games? Do they ever improve on them or is it the same "mash buttons and watch your guy punch the other guy" thing from decades ago?

You confuse FGC for smash
Smash is boring and never shower, FGC is the hypest shit around. Now get out old man, I bet you only play single player too

Why would I ever want to spend hour after hour after hour trying to perfect the timing on a combo of a video game? Literally pointless. I unironically have better shit to do with my time, as does just about everybody, including losers who care about being competitive in fighting games of all slop lmao.
imagine literally practicing a video game. not something that will actually help you in life or that's interesting. you're just REALLY good at pressing 2 directions and an attack button or something.

Also, fighting games are literally inherently competitive...? What do you mean trying to be..

The only good way to play fighting games is when everyone involved is drunk and you're just fricking around. They're inherently unfun when you get competitive because there isn't anything interesting about them. They're okay at being background but nothing else.
