I make videos sometimes, I think.

TK, SF, SC, FF, VF, FV, DMC, DP, EDF, SMT, uh... Doom... Undertale... video games :)
I return to say that have achieved basic competency at Tekken 8. 😀

Which to be honest was more of a mental endurance thing more than me learning anything new or getting much better.

You want to rank up? Sleep at least 6 hours and 45 minutes a night, eat regularly, and never EVER salt queue.

And ANOTHER ad. How much did this cost lmao?

It's weird seeing the amount of ads Fatal Fury is getting. I know the Saudis are funding this... but why this much? See my pfp, I like Fatal Fury, but there's no way it is making this money back. Do they care? Or does the Prince just really like Fatal Fury? Guess we will see. Game will be good tho.

Give Tekken 8 a few days. Maybe you'll like it more, maybe you'll hate it more. But at least give it a shot other than seeing a bunch of up arrows and complaining. And play online too, don't just do practice for an hour. There have been comprehensive system changes. It will take time to learn.

The new Tekken 8 season has a lot of buffs in it, but if the sidestepping/walking has truly been made better in all aspects then I think we're good. It's just that people will have to adapt. Also it 'seems' that some characters have crazy damage but everyone seems to ignore gray health. It matters.

Kingdom Hearts 2 still holds up. I should play it more and practice my combos.

Girlfriend got me a Tekken Tag board for our anniversary. So happy for this. Should be a ton of fun.

It's remarkable how well playing Tekken informs me of just how stressed I've been that day. If I'm good, I am calm playing the game. If I've been stressed, then I just want to smash something on the ground.

It's not always easy to tell if you're just one annoyance from a rage you get stuck in.

Modded Fightstick #4

Custom ArcadeShock Traveler

8 30mm Sanwa-OBSF - 4 Black/4Orange
2 24mm Sanwa-OBSF - Black
4 24mm Qanba Gravity - Red
Old Sanwa-JLF w/ 2 lbs Tension

Created quickly to imitate cheaper arcade sticks. I move parts on this case frequently as modification is easy. More info below.

"Don't call her bear". What? What? You mean "Kuma" right? translating it makes it sound so stupid you don't even realize that this image says Jin has "serious daddy issues".

Mad Catz SoulCalibur V Arcade Stick SOUL Edition (Xbox 360)

8 30mm Crown SDB-202C - 4 Red & 4 Blue

2 24mm Sansa-OBSF White (Stock)

Seimitsu LE EVO 2024 LSX-NOBI-01 PRO

Got this cheap. Was working perfectly, but suffered some color damage and the inside was... odd.

Modded Fightstick #2:

Tekken 4 Hori

6 30mm Sanwa-OBSF Vermillion

2 24mm Sanwa-OBSF Dark-Hai

Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT

I call this the "TK4 Fake Real Arcade Pro". Hori was making garbage at this time, sadly. Mushy buttons and a loose lever. I replaced both with the real arcade counterparts. It was hard.

8BitDo NS Ver.

2 24mm Smoke Crown SDB-202Cs - MX Speed Silver

8 30mm Blue Crown SDB-202Cs - MX Blue

Sanwa JLXD-TP-8YT Detachable Lever

Lever easier to mod than Xbox ver. Wireless makes it great for casual play. Larger sticks are better, but this is great for couch play.

Pro tip! If you're considering getting a leverless controller, get one of the metal Haute42 options. Not only do they feel better than others, but they're also durable. So when you spike the fucking thing on the floor because he should HAVE NOT BEEN PLUS THERE... it'll stay in one piece. 😀👍

This is why the Saturn failed.

When people say "Jim Kazama", this is who they are referring to.

I was getting super frustrated as Bryan playing Tekken 8. I never played Tekken hardcore online before, so knowledge checks worked super well on me and I lacked fundamental knowledge. I decided to get 10 other characters to Garyu as a personal goal to learn. It is done now. Hope this helps. 👍

Posting gilded age swole villain (he tied a woman to the train tracks) Bryan Fury as a test.
