They made a Severe and continuous lapse in judgement

That is not why they got rid of tribunal. They got rid of tribunal cause it sucked and people were clicking random shit to get rewards.

And saying they don’t care is weird after all the backlash lately they’ve been getting for all the anti-toxicity measures (backlash is cause they otherwise limit communication)

It’s just an Evo build for play at lol worlds. It’s not an official marketing push or anything they just let people play the game locally in Korea for a few days.

Does this in any way move the story or is it just a wacky side-adventure?

Wtf I’m a WBG fan now

especially compared to other recent fighting games.

I feel the opposite. It still has that shiny Tekken 7 look just at a higher fidelity while other fighting games are doing super interesting things with their styles. Tekken basically looks like Tekken 7 with UE5 coat of paint.

Not that it’s bad, but recent fighting games are MK1, SF6, Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising and if we go a bit back you have other arcsys games like the DFO fighting game and Strive, all of which look way more interesting than Tekken imo.

You know the year is great when even niche communities like the FGC agree that the new release (Street Fighter 6) might be the new peak for such a long running franchise.

We are eating so good. Not to mention amazing indie games too like Stray Gods, Shadow gambit (rip studio), Bomb Rush, Chained Echoes, Sea of Stars, Chants of Sennaar and I am sure many more that are escaping me rn.
