00:00:00
let's
00:00:01
[Music]
00:00:11
go tekken is changing it might not be
00:00:14
changing the way you were expecting but
00:00:16
it's going through a lot of changes i'm
00:00:17
not one to like dissect and uh dulge
00:00:20
into the majority of patch notes fdx
00:00:23
exists please go check out his channel
00:00:25
to learn about a lot of the stuff that's
00:00:26
going on here i'm just going to
00:00:28
summarize it the way that I know and
00:00:30
talk about what is happening with the
00:00:32
game long story short this Tekken patch
00:00:35
is not what we were hoping it to be
00:00:37
straight up but this Tekken patch
00:00:39
couldn't have been what we hoped it to
00:00:41
be there hasn't been enough time the
00:00:42
fact that it is something is good it is
00:00:45
moving in a positive direction if
00:00:47
there's a progress bar of like you know
00:00:50
ultimate happiness at the end of this in
00:00:51
the game that most people are expecting
00:00:53
and kind of want this is like a 10%
00:00:55
progress you know it's there but the
00:00:58
good news is that this patch isn't like
00:01:00
"Okay so here was season 1 down here
00:01:03
season two is a completely different
00:01:04
bar." They didn't make a completely new
00:01:06
bar completely new idea of what the game
00:01:08
could be which is kind of what they did
00:01:09
in season 2 no they went back to like
00:01:11
season 1 and season 1 kind of went back
00:01:13
a bit that's a good thing that we're
00:01:15
moving in this direction because
00:01:16
ultimately speaking a lot of the changes
00:01:18
for characters are not fullbore tone
00:01:21
down the crazy powerful you know homing
00:01:23
plus onblock mids and [ __ ] that is not
00:01:26
completely gone a lot of the egregious
00:01:27
stuff is gone but some of the really
00:01:29
annoying [ __ ] is 100% still here dude
00:01:31
characters are still doing really
00:01:32
annoying things really powerful things
00:01:34
some characters have some really
00:01:35
aggressive tools the game is still
00:01:37
knowledge check heavy as hell we could
00:01:39
not have expected them within 2 weeks
00:01:42
less than 2 weeks of the season 2 patch
00:01:45
to approach everything it was an
00:01:47
impossible ask instead it's more of a
00:01:49
commitment to the developers that this
00:01:51
rendered [ __ ] a sunder so bad that they
00:01:54
really have to reapproach everything and
00:01:56
we're they even say this this is the
00:01:58
best they can do at the moment they have
00:01:59
to go to rehab first before like you
00:02:01
know fixing everything just revert the
00:02:03
patch i get it just revert the patch is
00:02:06
the easiest idea ever but game builds
00:02:08
exist so if you were to just revert the
00:02:11
patch Anna's gone you had people that
00:02:13
paid money for the game and the thing
00:02:15
that they paid for is now gone so making
00:02:17
an entire new build of the game that has
00:02:21
like a functioning Anna with fixes and
00:02:23
the other characters that have the fixes
00:02:25
will take three times as long you can't
00:02:27
just delete said thing and then just go
00:02:29
back without everything else also
00:02:31
getting reverted you know that doesn't
00:02:32
take take away from the fact that
00:02:33
there's a lot of good stuff in this
00:02:34
patch that did fix certain things what
00:02:37
we're looking at here is things moving
00:02:38
in the right direction and my dude I'm
00:02:40
just going to say I'm not going to talk
00:02:41
about big things my [ __ ] ass is out
00:02:43
here oh god i want you to look at this
00:02:45
my character lost 22 frames in one move
00:02:50
in one move my character lost 22 frames
00:02:52
should it have been that way from the
00:02:54
get-go no but my character arguably lost
00:02:57
more frame data than the majority of the
00:02:59
roster combined so I am saying that's
00:03:01
good i'm saying that's good these things
00:03:05
moving in this direction for the
00:03:06
majority of characters are good does it
00:03:09
fix all of the problems no we have to
00:03:11
wait about a month i think it's just a
00:03:13
commitment from them that this is going
00:03:15
to take time and we did talk about this
00:03:17
before we didn't know how much time it
00:03:18
was going to take expecting this patch
00:03:20
to be the end- all beall of this
00:03:21
situation was unrealistic and to be real
00:03:24
if you were expecting this to be that
00:03:25
and this isn't that and you're wildly
00:03:27
disappointed I understand this is like a
00:03:30
season 1 patch where at the end of
00:03:32
season 1 they were making a lot of
00:03:34
conscious well-educated choices of where
00:03:37
the game could go how they can tone down
00:03:38
[ __ ] where things can move and yeah
00:03:40
it was it was actually pretty good man
00:03:43
to be real most of the stuff that was
00:03:45
moving in season 1 felt right so again
00:03:48
not everything in here is genius but
00:03:50
they are clearly admitting and now
00:03:53
showing okay so yeah this has to be
00:03:57
going in this direction and clearly not
00:03:59
the other direction and to me it's like
00:04:01
cool guess what this makes me want to do
00:04:03
this makes me realize that this game is
00:04:06
going to change every month bro the
00:04:07
competitive integrity of this [ __ ] over
00:04:09
the next like year or so in this entire
00:04:12
season is probably going to be screwed
00:04:14
not going to be the solidified game that
00:04:17
you want it to be a patch in May will it
00:04:19
be time for EVO Japan i guarantee you
00:04:21
bro the
00:04:22
esportsification of this game is not
00:04:25
important right now straight up tekken
00:04:27
tour plans Evo Japan Evo Vegas whatever
00:04:31
these things are now small beans in
00:04:35
comparison to what is important this
00:04:37
game is unfun and nobody likes it so if
00:04:39
it means that they have to release
00:04:41
updates and change stuff without
00:04:43
consideration that we need to meet the
00:04:45
obligations of people that are
00:04:47
practicing and stuff then you know what
00:04:48
then that's just the case because to be
00:04:50
real the game has to go through these
00:04:52
changes it has to go through this growth
00:04:53
period to be honest the esports aspect
00:04:56
of it will return if you have a great
00:04:58
fun game that a lot of people like to
00:05:00
play and watch the esports part of it is
00:05:03
going to be there next year this stuff
00:05:04
isn't gone personally speaking I think
00:05:07
we're going to get a lot of these micro
00:05:08
changes over this year and there's going
00:05:10
to be a lot of development there's going
00:05:12
to be a lot of changes and there's going
00:05:14
to be a lot of reversions and there's
00:05:15
going to be some stuff where they go too
00:05:17
far they don't go they don't go far
00:05:18
enough this is practically like we're in
00:05:20
another beta you know is sort of what's
00:05:22
going on right now instead of making me
00:05:24
like not want to play the game in any
00:05:26
way guess what what it makes me want to
00:05:27
do i actually want to play it now after
00:05:29
this patch came out we play a little bit
00:05:31
and I'm just kind of like I'm good on
00:05:32
this [ __ ] man you know what i'm good on
00:05:34
this stuff but to be real there's enough
00:05:36
changes in here between like heat
00:05:37
engagers and especially health where I'm
00:05:39
like genuinely curious what kind of game
00:05:41
is this now wherever this is going I I I
00:05:44
want to know how I feel about this and
00:05:45
the only way I know how I feel is if I
00:05:48
play a bit of it it's not much different
00:05:50
i guarantee you if you're at like you
00:05:52
know purple ranks or below you will see
00:05:54
zero difference there will be no
00:05:56
difference in terms of how this game
00:05:57
overall feels or is played and most of
00:06:00
the characters have their same annoying
00:06:01
[ __ ] but you cannot look me in the
00:06:03
eyes and tell me from the people that
00:06:05
have been playing this over the last 24
00:06:06
hours that it's been out matches look
00:06:08
different heat engagers which have been
00:06:10
severely dominant look different the
00:06:12
casino around heat engagers is mostly
00:06:14
gone characters live way longer matches
00:06:17
are lasting significantly longer than
00:06:20
they ever have those will feel like
00:06:23
inconsequential changes to the majority
00:06:25
of people that are just like hitting
00:06:26
buttons and doing big moves those things
00:06:28
will really change the pace of matches
00:06:30
so that's what I want to experience and
00:06:32
play i'm like damn bro this is Here's
00:06:34
the thing that's only 10% this is not a
00:06:36
big change this is like we're shifting
00:06:38
things we need to start messing around
00:06:40
with like what their ideals are for
00:06:41
Tekken without it being super annoying
00:06:43
so the game has been shaken up again yes
00:06:45
100% the game has been shaken up to
00:06:47
revert back on all the crazy [ __ ]
00:06:49
that happened in season 2 this is
00:06:50
clearly the right direction but not what
00:06:51
everyone wanted it to be if you're just
00:06:53
waiting I'll just wait for them to
00:06:54
eventually figure it out then don't play
00:06:56
you know this is not the time to play
00:06:58
there are plenty of other Tekken games
00:06:59
there are plenty of other fighting games
00:07:00
just go play other things if you're
00:07:01
waiting for them to figure it out this
00:07:03
is like a learning process i kind of
00:07:04
want to see how that how what that plays
00:07:06
like how does that shake up and my
00:07:07
character's been nerfed to ass maybe not
00:07:10
nerfed to ass but some very powerful
00:07:12
moves were severely toned down you know
00:07:14
I want to try it i definitely want to
00:07:16
try it from Nikatu who's the game
00:07:17
director thank you for the continued
00:07:19
support i'd like to offer my heartfelt
00:07:20
apologies as game director for the fact
00:07:22
that the recently released season 2 did
00:07:23
not meet expectations and caused
00:07:25
inconvenience due to critical issues we
00:07:26
take all of your feedback and comments
00:07:28
very seriously the entire team is
00:07:29
working together with full commitment to
00:07:31
resolve this stuff and deliver a better
00:07:32
gameplay experience we will continue to
00:07:34
make steady meaningful improvements one
00:07:35
by one and to do our utmost to regain
00:07:37
your trust like I said we're not there
00:07:39
completely yet but this is the point
00:07:41
where you can't say things you actually
00:07:43
have to show and the first bit they
00:07:45
shown is moving in the right direction
00:07:47
mike Murray also responded "Here's the
00:07:49
patch notes this is just the first step
00:07:50
in many changes to correct the balance
00:07:52
of the game our apologies and thank you
00:07:54
for your patience in dealing with these
00:07:55
issues i will continue monitoring the
00:07:57
community post and constructive feedback
00:07:59
things are definitely changing
00:08:08
