Katsuhiro Harada and co. talk arcades, simplified controls, and coriander.
Tekken 8 preview
A preview in late November finally gave me some insight.
And Harada-san’s also not a fan of people posing on Macs, Ikeda has discovered.
For a Tekken character, she actually seems relatively easy to pick up.
Victor immediately felt strong to me.
Ikeda-san clarified that this narrative focus was a deliberate reaction to the demise of the physical arcade scene.
Not just the atmosphere, but in the conversations you have with the NPCs.
As Ikeda-san explained, “A lot of attention went into this, more so than people probably realise.
So, is Tekken 8 set to continue Bandai Namco’s hot streak?
From what I played, almost definitely.
After some debate amongst Michael, Ikeda and Harada, Michael finally replied “I don’t remember that.
Did that really happen?
Harada used to just say, “it’s pending.”
That was the official answer.
