The commentary is so much more better then the NLBC one.

Leo is actually not that bad. I never really used the character that much in T6 and Tag 2 but he/she seems like a good Julia like character.
Should just hide the name while you're at it but neat change
One of my favorite Lili buffs in T7 is that piece of shit got reassigned to u+3+4. Every time I would get that move by accident trying to input another 3+4 move I would end up on sudoku watch.

could never
Good.
I think Leo is considered one of the strongest right now.

Going through the ending movies from past games, I've come to two conclusions:
- The story is absolutely ridiculous. I don't know where this "Tekken is more serious than Street Fighter" stuff comes from, both are bonkers in their own way.
- Lee Chaolan is a motherfucking baller.

Mishimas are pretty heinous. They throw family members, including children, off of cliffs, into volcanoes, into dungeons for years, murder their wives, scientists working for them, start wars and murder tons of innocents. And all of this is shown in game.
Meanwhile Dictator is pretty screwed up but most of his crimes are done off camera.
Just say they
Very good. No more hiding.
Just got back to Grand Master again with Heihachi, fuck Lucky Chloe.
It's very good. So glad they added it.

That's not as heinous as it sounds, at least on heihachi's part. He had reasons for
throwing kaz off the cliff
killing his wife.

I didn't know the Bayonetta artist designed Kazumi

Tekken actually has a story, and can also be bonkers. Street Fighter is cute because it pretends like it has a story.

Anyone else preorder but not get a DLC code? I tried contacting the store but they don't know what it is, and Namco support with proof of order and purchase but they referred me to the store. Come on. Unless I missed something, I'm getting sceptical that I'll get it...
On another note, the gameplay is very good.. But the mode options seem pretty bare bone. The biggest omission for me is team battle. Have they talked about that? It's probably my favorite mode, and a franchise stable.

If you're in Europe it should be on your receipt. If you're in the US there should be a code inside your box.
After playing Tekken 7 and Street Fighter V's story modes, as well as playing all the numbered entries of both series, I think both have a story that's equally nonsense and inconsequential.
The biggest difference is Tekken is a little less vague and they'll state things definitively happened even if it doesn't matter too much. The core of every Tekken game is that this family of superpowered martial artists/CEOs keep attempting fratricide, which fails, and then who runs the zaibatsu and/or tournament switches hands a game.
I think Namco cares more about Tekken's plot than Capcom does with SF but the result is roughly the same: barebones and uneventful. SFV is doing what Tekken has always done which is connecting dots and filling in details so up until SF3's timeline everything is pretty concrete. Doesn't make it feel any less like the story was cribbed from G.I. Joe, though.

I'm in Europe. My only receipt is a order confirmation mail, and a order shipped mail. Neither contains anything that looks like a redeemable code.

Everything makes sense now.
Trying to find juggles off of CH 4,1. This one is stupid hard, doesn't feel practical, and not sure how to end it, but I love getting consecutive knees in combos:

Mari designed Josie too. Great looking characters.
The T7 Hori stick is awesome. The Razer Panthera is great. Qanba Obsidian is nice.
Super high end would be the Qanba Dragon and the Hori VLX.

Dragon and VLX are HUGE, so might not be what you're looking for. I'd personally recommend the T7 Hori. It's one of my favorites. I haven't played on a Qanba, but friends I know with them think they newer models are good.

Thanks. The T7 looks solid, think I'll grab one of those.

Same results definitely. Tekken just feels more cohesive than whatever lore that SF is trying to hold.
Everything will be alright when Capcom reveals how Ryu, Alex, and Akuma teach everyone how to parry before the Third Strike reboot comes out

The T7 one also has a headphone jack if that matters to you.
Personally I prefer the case of the T7 one, but I'm not sure if it's $30 (plus they increase shipping for me because of weight) better.

Cool, thanks. Can't find the T7 in stock anywhere other than the US unfortunately.

Tekken 7 is the first main line game in the series I've played since bailing on 4, and I love it. It's probably my favorite since 2. Even the rage arts, which I was iffy on, are a great tool for balancing out a match.
And I just have to say... I can't help but shout "Tiger Uppercut" in my best Sagat voice every time Kazumi does a literal one.

When in doubt just block high. Low attacks don't usually leave you open for juggles.
