I might buy her, though she was the last T7 DLC character. It would make sense if she was there in T8 from the get go. But rather her than Eddy which I didn't buy.

I thought she was one of the better additions in the Tekken 7 DLC. I'm glad she's coming back. Hopefully she replaces Eddy on the title screen.
 
Every trailer has been consistently excellent ever since the game's announcement.

Not a big fan of her face, I thought it looked less doll-like in Tekken 7.
But her outfit is amazing.

Anyway, hope Anna and Miguel make it.

I hate the nationality simping though...
I hate that shit in any fighter.
Street Fighter tends to stay away from that stuff, as far as I'm aware... Dead or Alive too.

Thank the gods, because if Blanka was a nationality simp, I would be utterly embarrassed of being Brazilian...
 

Edmund

is waiting for Starfield 7
My second main and she's soooo pretty! Can't wait for her to release but I gotta admit her rage art looks underwhelming.

She looks great,awesome fighting style. I hate the nationality simping though...

My exact sentiments. In early Tekken games, nationality was more a fun side aspect of the character. However Lidia is literally just Poland. She's not her own character. Her entire gimmick is being Polish and loving Poland. I think it's lazy and tasteless. I don't know why the devs thought it appropriate to give Poland of all nations this amount of wanking since the game is not even noteworthy popular there.

That stage is beautiful. Did fhat come as DLC already or is it coming with her? The sunset lighting was amazing.

Edit oops,I guess it was announced for this summer a month ago. I’m way behind the news on this game now.

They should have made a strong man polish power type charcater instead

I hate that Im playing a Japanese fighting game and in one room 5 different characters are all talking in their own language to eachother. Just looks stupid as if everyone knows 10 languages. I wish I could have all ENG or JAP audio instead with subtitles.
 
I hate this new trend " take my + frame into constant stance 50/50".
Fuck eddy with his +6 move into stance then make you guess low or mid.
FIrst day ranked against her is gonna be a nightmare.

Always thought the girl on the left of this meme was Leelee Sobieski and that it was taken from a movie:

But apparently it's just a public domain stock photo from Spain. So it's unlikely it's her.
