I would bust out my salt shaker, but I'm cutting back. I just got the clean bill of health after a blood pressure scare from a few months back.

I honestly thought that they would remove her WS+1 and refine her movelist, which is why they haven't revealed her until now. But she's completely unchanged other than the tailspins.
Makes me wonder why they took so long with her in the first place.
Exact thoughts.
I even remember comments from Harada and/or Murray from way back when stating that her moveset was being redesigned - and that was the reason for her delay. I guess not.
It remains to be seen when people get their hands on the game. My main worry is how much more powerful her evasive stuff becomes in a game that has far more limited movement than before. It really was not fun to deal with in the past game, but it will be extra not fun to deal with in this one.

29 characters is weird. We have to be getting at least one more. Maybe Numb will get Mokujin.
Edit: I forgot all about that red guy. I haven't seen him pop up in any tournaments since he was revealed.

Yes.. I love using Nina.
I'm sure we'll be getting many more. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they went past the assumed 35.

There is still not a single black character in. I'm hoping for Christie and Raven. Maybe I can get Baek too.

So basically, she was Bob, before Bob?
All of this Nina love in here can't be right, nor healthy.
Still? Oh, it sounds different to me. Anyway, it sounds good.
If only Bruce stood a chance.
That's not a Sayah thing. That's an all Nina players thing.

Julia/Michelle are my fav Tekken ladies but I digs me some Nina. Was gonna pick her up in T6.
By the way, what's up with the "1, 2" counting when Jack-7 and Lucky Chloe does a certain move? Do you have to time it to the counting somewhat?
I also hope we get a new character reveal every month from now on.
Michelle Chang is the best in the entire Tekken history. Actually, she's second to Josie now. ^_^

I know Jack's is for his wind up punch that OHKO's at 10.
Idk why Chloe counts down.
Here's the thing though... I haven't seen WS 1 done alone twice. I got a feeling WS 1 1+2 is a super canned string now or WS 1 recovers much slower.
Ding ding ding
It's actually nice to see all of the positive feedback from people in the other Tekken threads. Combined with the massive attention in media (at least Arabic and Filipino media) I have hopes that Tekken 7 can perform better than Tag 2. Seriously, let's hope it all translates to sales.

Its like the weirdess default but it works? idk lol
It's weird to see Nina being dressed so "nicely". Just look at that hairdo. Still strange to see her without any purple too.
Didn't they have a concept for a zombie bride character, which was part of the poll for Tekken Revolution? Kind of feels like they have taken that concept, and applied it to Nina Williams.
[edit]
Yeah, they look alike.

Yeah no Purple is weird but Nina always had fancy 2p outfits if her Assassin outfit wasn't 1p.
Haha omggg, she looks sooooo good.
I wish I could have watched this live.
Great news to wake up to tho.
Yep. It's one of the things that annoys me about the current gen. The world is an ugly place, and sheltering people behind their #safeplaces and #microagressions and #dontoffendmebros is only making things worse. I hate having to avoid stepping on eggshells because people are overly sensitive.
Tact is all well and good, but there's a pretty bold line between being a jerk and being honest or humorous. Oh well.
Well said.
GrayFoxPL, thanks for the Paul tips which are 2 pages back now, lol.
That Nina reveal was HYPE! Didn't expect that at all. And I totally forgot how good FR's graphics are compared to the beta.
And I really dig her new outfit. Makes her look more elegant and feminine and her hair looks really good. And they kept her body the same, which is good!
I'm always hyped for T7 until I notice that we don't have any news about when we'll get our hands on it. Frustrates me everytime.

The location test for FR is next month.
The loke for vanilla last year was Feb and Japan/Korea release was March.
So probably is looking to follow that pattern.

What's your estimation of the console release, Lupinko?
Been playing some Feng/Jin lately and it really feels like I'm working about 50% as hard as with my Alex/Lili team to do damage with a lot of my pokes doubling as ch launchers.
My Jin isn't on par with my Alex yet but once it is, I expect to be winning far more. And Feng? Just uf2 all day when faced with a scramble.

Do you think Fated Retribution will hit the Philippines and other Asian countries by April? I'm so nervous I'm gonna miss out. I'll be in the Philippines on April 15.

So ecstatic to see Nina again and after looking at her outfit some more, I am beginning to really love it. Unexpected look and a nice surprise. Now if Anna makes a return, that would complete the package. I am still thinking we will not see this game until 2017 on consoles though. Hopefully, I am wrong.

You're welcome buddy.
Of course it's disappointing. My hopes that FR will change things are slowly going down the drain. While graphic designers revamp everything twice already within T7 itself, gameplay people copy paste every shit from Tag2! Tag2 gave characters more useful moves and stances then numbered sequel. It's pathetic. The biggest changes for T7 chars come from the fact that they exchanged one bound moves for others. Is this because main gameplay designer was just a tunner for T5? He lacks imagination or some shit? Better to mod an old game then to make a new one?
I really hoped FR would bring at least more new shit to movesets, but seems they just going easy way. Gfx guys are the working ones.
Not sure, but I think it was only Thailand that got it the latest last year. That I know about because Kurokuro mentioned it to me when Toon visited from Thailand.
I wonder when the Philippines got Tekken 7 compared to the other countries. Hmm.
Who was it that said, that Nina had the same voice actor? I'm pretty sure Mary Elizabeth didn't do her voice in past games. Her voice is really different compared to earlier titles.
I really like this new Nina. Unbelievable. I have disliked her since Tekken 1 and now this happens. Pretty dress and soothing voice. Welcome Nina. Welcome!
Her Rage Art sucks though. Too much ninja. Too much luchre dore wrestling style.
