remember when new tekken characters looked cool and didn't make you cringe?
i understand harada & co needs new blood for the franchise but c'mon...
Realism in VF? Ya a girl like Sarah can really beat a guy like Wolf lol!
@Ocelot, I think this Tekken game will be the darkest one ever.
If you look at the stages, we've already seen a couple of stages where destruction seemed to have taken place(the Ruins stage, the destroyed New York stage) and a few where the surroundings really look Dystopian/dark (the winter stage and the stage on the rooftop with the Dystopian city in the background). Those four places in the game will probably have a important role in the story.
Also, if this is the Tekken game that's going to end the Mishima saga then I just can't help think that it will end with a happy end.
I have a feeling most of the existing Tekken characters and Mishima's will die in T7 so that the next Tekken installment can make room for newer characters and possibly start a new story. One that starts ages after T7's story and of course with the few remaining survivors of the Devil gene eradication..
So I think in T7's story there'll be a lot of characters dying. ;( Environement-wise, we've only seen a few stages and already four of them had a dark feeling. And character wise, I can't really speak out on that but Kazuya in his trench coat sure as hell looks really serious.
Oh and I'm sure Chloe has nothing to do with the story but is just there to help gather Tekken players from other communities.... Cuz I really can't think what her role would be in the story lol?
What exactly is new about this character? She's just another capo.
Alright guys, sorry for being late to the party, but here's the post you've all been waiting for. Get ready to be (slightly) amused.
Believe it or not, I GOT BANNED FROM THIS SITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah yeah, laugh all you want, but if my little trolling tantrums ware all that was needed to get banned, then alot of others should be banned.
At first I didn't know I was banned, I just thought the site was down or had problems loading. Then it went on for so log time and when I heard the news about this new character and nothing on my favorite Tekken news site, I obviously became suspicious.
So Aris, you banned me? Or Flying Wonkey or AAK or some other mod.
Ok, I get the point, I'll be trolling alot less. I mean I won't be trolling at all. Just serious constructive posts like this one from now on. I'm sorry for my trolling posts. Pleeeeaaase unban me. I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't maturbate, I can't do anything worth living for if I can't access this site.
You banned my IP-address and it was really really hard to turn off my modem so my computer got a new IP-address. I can't reach my modem easily and it's too much hassle to go to sites that reroutes you to banned sites.
It's not that it's difficult to do those things, but it's the message you send by banning me.. I got it. I was being too big of a cunt in my posts. It was just a fake persona.
Come on, Aris, pretty please! Unban me. I'm being totally serious! I won't be posting unneccessary shit. I think I may have crossed the line when I wished Harada would die. Ok, that's going too far! Ok, that was bad of me. I'm sorry! Please forgive me?
Also, can't you see how people miss my posts? Can't you see how they expect me to run wild with this info on the new character? I don't wanna be a cunt, but it's EXPECTED from me. It's all peer pressure man. But I'm not gonna do it anymore. Just serious stuff from now on. So will you unban me?
I have A LOT on my mind about this character and Harada's choice, and it's serious stuff. But I can't say that as long as I'm banned. Then there's no point. It's like if you go to the forrest and troll and nobody listens to you, are you really trolling?
If you're banned from a site and you still troll, it's like shouting in the forest when nobody's around! Makes you think, man, makes you think!!
So I will not troll. If I would just troll, wouldn't I trolled by now, instead of saying I'm sorry?? I have been bad and needed to be punished. Can you unban me? Just do it and see. If I continue to troll, then just ban me again then. It's worth a try, isn't it?
Any-hoo... I'll just end with this little notion about Lucky Chloe; She looks nice. I like her. I like mr. Harada-san too. I don't think he is a pedophile for including her. She looks kinda like Lili with that long blond hair. I got no problems with that. I can jerk off to hot animé chicks. She needed some bigger tits though. It's her voice that I can't stand. Someone posted a link to some gameplay footage. Listen to her annoying baby voice.
Soooooo.. how about it? Unban me? Please? No? Screw you! No no, I'm sorry. Seriously. If you unban me, I'll troll ALOT less and I won't make any death-threats or call mr. Harada-san cunt anymore. And I'll never call you fat.
Big hugs from yours truly

Thanks Dicky, I appreciate the support!
It's not that it's a difficult task to reroute yourself and still come to a banned site, it's the whole thing about a site not wanting you. It really hurts, you know! It hurts right in dem feels.
It's like they don't appreciate you at all. I don't want to come to a site that bans me and don't want me around. Am I that bad of a person? No, of course not. Did I cross the line a few times? Sure I did. Was I being too big of a cunt? You bet.
But was all my troll-rage completely unjustified all the time? I think the latest entry to Tekken has shown everybody that mr. Harada-San (peace be upon him) is a wonderful godfather of Tekken who deserves all the praise he can get.
And seriously, the gameplay of this new character raises so many questions:
What's the time difference between Japan and everyplace else? A couple of months? Because it sure looks like it's April the 1st in Japan already.
Is Lucky Chloe the lovechild of Lili, Ling and Christie? They weren't annoying enough separately?
Is Namco just running out of new moves to give their new characters? Is that why half the moveslist is just blueprint of some of the older characters?
Who is mr. Harada-san (peace be upon his soul) thinking he is pleasing with this character and this moveslist? Newcomers? Oldtimers? Haters? Tekkenlovers?
How big of a problem is pedophelia and child-molestation in Japan? Serious question. Because half their games and cartoons have these little kiddie-girls with visual underwear that dance aroung in small costumes with baby-voices. I mean, is that the sexual fantasy of the average Japanese player?
And you have people like the ones a couple of post above mine that still like T7 because it seems to have 'some really destructed stages and the story will be dark'... go figure!
"No matter the gameplay or the characters, as long as the stages are destructed I'm a happy camper.."
And you people had the nerve to critisize ME for calling Harada a cunt. Now look! LOOK!! Look what's happening to Tekken!!
I rest my case!
(@ mods; this wasn't too trolley, was it? Because I can tone down more if you like, mr. sir!)
I think Chloe is using monkey kung-fi, and might be a joke character. If its only one odd character, than maybe we should ignore it. Welcome back, spade-and-neuteted Cunty McCunt. I don't blame you for past behaviour. Since you thought nobody was modding this site, you let your trolling get the best of you.
@The Cheese; you're a retard.
You see those tweets and come to the conclusion that I*m being "owned up" by Harada but fail to see the bigger picture
or your own cause for concern.
For those interested this was the chain of events.
1) http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sj11at
2) https://twitter.com/Harada_TEKKEN/status/541642431553630208
Here I state that it's not just neogaf who don't like the character design but sites like eventhubs and the commentfield here at avoiding the puddle also.
3) Harada tweets again saying:
"People = that forum? you should read worldwide forum. or your world = only USA? it's nonsense. I said We've more new characters. @Reality2k"
Now why should you care about this? It's simple;
1) Harada is a moron and doesn't see the value if sites like eventhubs, srk, avoidingthepuddle hate the new design, that the reveal video has more disslikes than likes (try to find something similar ever) doesn't matter. He likes idolmaster and sees more value in his favorite korean forum then the entire world. The scary part is then that he accuses ME of seeing things from the smaller picture or being geographically selfcentered while being to blind to see that he's the one doing the very things that he accuses others of. While you laugh at him saying that I'm from the US cause I talked about those forums and I only want a skinhead muscular fighter I'm honest to god fucking scared about his racial profiling and conclusions he draws from me stating a simple fact.
2) Harada is a moron who doesn't see the value, playerbase (only usa I don't care small forum!), or reactions of the worlds most leading tekken and fightinggame forums. He's clueless. Player feedback is useless and he's surrounded by yesmen (look at the people sucking his dick 24/7 on his twitter regardless).
All in all there was a time when you looked forward to new fightingstyles being introduced to the game. Now those styles are crawling on the floor as a spider, flying through the air as a robot, fightingstyle being "dance" with flips or belly flops or full blown anime lasercannons. Now lolis and kpop dancers. It's not the exeption anymore; it's the norm.
Watch this video to see how veterans feel about tekken now and new characters - it's genuine and you feel the pain;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsa6mPoL-VM
So the case in point is if Tekken is in deep problem and the managment doesn't listen to the opinion of players; they're doomed. I've seen this before it was a nostalgia game called Virtua Fighter on the recieving end then.
I gotta say Reality, I really do respect your opinions and most of your posts and the stuff you say about Tekken is on point.
But while KingJae is a really good player, I don't think the points he made in his downfall video were all on point. It's more of video where he whines and bitches about Tekken not being catered to his own personal taste...
I really like KingJae but recently he's just being so negative, giving Tekken a really bad name and shoo'ing newcomers to Tekken away .
@Cunty McCunt
Fuck you, you hungry catterpillar-looking piece of shit. You got enough warnings before being banned and this is the punishment you get, unless you're pretending you got banned. Now we all expect you to do the most extreme shit talk and you disappoint us. Trolling is -21 on block. You should have known better. You're still posting things anyway, so what's the problem?
You're my bitch calling this Thursday. I will never be on ATP live but I will be at home calling you a bitch. Kappa
On another note, Chloe has really made the Internet go absolutely berserk. I'm surprised!
Why-fu I don't really care about King Jae as a player or know him enough as a person. I just feel my heart break or bleed when I see someone showcase emotions like he does, it's clear loves the game and isn't happy about what's going on - as many of us are. Found his channel by accident. Believe me I've defended this game to hell and back, Aris can testify this. But I just don't know any more man. It's just the decisions over and over and over. I feel that Tekken tries so much to change itself according to times now in order to increase sales while ignoring the possibility that they are moving so far away from Tekken being the actual reason behind why people are leaving the game. So many people are saddened by this game by now and the sad fact is that a lot of top players play the game for nostalgia most probably at this point. Maybe I'm just emo this week and I'll cheer up soon.
It's just that fucking nagging feeling of that this game will be dead if evo finals 2015 are between two Lucky Chloes' or that as a sort of testament to how far of the mark we are at this point. If you thought tekken died quick after Evo bobfest just close your eyes and think about that for a while. That feeling of that those supers will still be lazy rehashed animations in the full release etc, stuff like that.
I
So mr. Harada-San (peace be upon his soul) says this new character is only East-Asia and Europe exclusive. And that North-America will have other characters. Is it true or is this him trolling us now??
Has the trollie become the troller??
http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sj1aq3
Well played mr. Harada-San, well played! *puffs on my pipe*
@ Ocelot:
I really was banned. For three days it just showed 'No access' everytime I tried to get to this site. So I got myself a new IP-address. But it's the message they sent me; don't be trollin' or you get the ban. I can't be a huge cunt anymore, sorry!
Besides, trolling basics 101 says you can't rage over something that is obvious and is enraging everybody! That's being mainstream. A good troll LOVES everything everybody hates, and HATES everything everybody hates.
My main problem is all the crushing and evading moves are just really difficult to play against. The real skill of the game and the challenge just gets thrown out the window because even if you learn the frames and set up a +2 on block or whatever, some random evading or crushing shit just ruins your christmas. What's the skill in that?
For that reason only I might just main this character.
Reality, most of the people who are saddened, didn't even play the game yet. I know, T7 is not like the older Tekken games anymore but I'm optimistic that this game will still have the same old Tekken feeling. Part of the reason that I think this way is because I haven't heard a single bad thing coming from the Japanese players who have already played the game.
I also read something about Harada saying that he possibly will release different characters in each region.
If that's the case, then I don't see these characters like Lucky Chloe accessible for tournaments.
Best thing actually to do is have patience and wait for a chance to play it yourself. I'm sure it's just persistant negativity around this game that has changed your opinion about the game! Just stay positive. (:
You're right Why-fu. It could have been much worse. I really believe supers, specially if multiple and reanimated, will at the very least make new players play the game.
Btw can't believe people haven't said she's a Eileen ripoff already Kappa
Still think it's 0 for 3 with the new characters though
She looks like the lovechild of Taokaka from Blazblue and Felicia from MvC3.
Also, still nobody that has actually played the game has tweeted anything negative about the game. I am glad I trusted mr. Harada-San (PBUH). I actually like him now and am looking forward to this game.
Think about it. No more learning of the frames. If the opponent tries some fancy frametrap set-up, just crush his ass and ruin his christmas.
So many people are crying about how the sky is falling when its only 1 character. We already have 2 more serious types so whats the harm in having a goofy character? She is better than Alisa at least and will have more appeal than adding some lame ass old fuck like Dr. B or Sebastian. Cutesy pop girls grab attention and sell plain and simple.
Her stance and some animations/moves resemble a re-worked Eliza. They are re-using art and animation assets for what they probably think is a more appealing character than a 'meh' vampire chick. Its actually pretty smart since they can add a new character for hype instead off re-using Eliza.
The hardcore Tekken 'purists' got their game with TTT2 and it almost killed the series. If Lucky Chloe is on the cover of every Tekken 7 marketing page and shitloads of people buy the game thinking its some type of fan service/DOA cutesy game but instead get a solid Tekken game then its only a GOOD thing for the series.
The hardcore fans needs to understand that Tekken needs an image change. The core game and iconic characters are not going anywhere.
@reality lets say the engine is not an issue and lets say harada or namco try to makes this game appeal to any audience. the real problem is that the people who play tekken seriously are the one who keep this game alive most of them are in there 20 to 30 the youngster are really low in numbers specially the ones who take the game seriously like us. do you really think a growing young adult will take a femal bitch** like this one seriously and learn her options because we are gonna face her in tournament hell nooooo i'm not gonna waist my precious free time on a characters that is not inspiring you can create fantasist character but stay in the root of tekken zafina is a good ex we don't know her fighting style but at least she brings curiosity ,she looks mature those aspects give respect to your main audience i know its a video game but dude we need purpose we are not in a stage where we press boutton to press boutton we press them with passion for what we see in the screen the appealing the enjoyment of watching the moves over and over so in the end we can analyse those moves and use them effectively.if namco lose there cor fan base its done no tournaments, no tutorials people will not care like we do. so MR HARADA you better need to know which side you chose.
It is unfortunate so many are turned away from Tekken 7 over this. Especially since I feel Chloe was created to welcome more otaku into Tekken and to be a lovable character, a character created with good intentions. I really thank Namco for her as well, I am very excited to play her. It is difficult to accept comments stating characters like Chloe "are what Tekken has become". Chloe is not Tekken. Chloe and the rest of the cast who becomes forgotten in an instant are Tekken. I do not think it is fair to the classic staples to be treated as if they are not in the game just because of Chloe, her addition has no effect on their presence. Chloe does not change Tekken.
Given so, what person has the right to tell someone "No, you cannot have this character, because I do not want her in this game"? Tekken is for everyone, including the extreme-otaku.
I feel as a community, we really need to work on accepting other's tastes, especially moving forward as there will always be characters created that are not to our or someone else's liking. Yet still, it is important that we can just simply accept those characters as being someone else's cup of tea rather than becoming hate-filled and bitter towards an entire franchise.
@Divty
It's not a matter of choosing a side but getting both together. I'm sure Harada knows the sales demographic better than most people here so Chloe is probably meant for a specific demographic where most of us don't belong obviously. Tekken community needs more culture!!!
Harada also stated that there still are going to be new characters. So I still see new serious characters coming.
And when you look at which existing characters he has chosen to put in T7, almost all of them are serious characters.
So Harada, imo, couldn't have done it better up til now you closed minded potatoes.
@Quartus Veritas
I like your mindset!
