Downtime was caused by the hosting service's network going down. Should be OK now.

An issue with the Webring addon was causing Lynxchan to intermittently crash. The issue has been fixed.

Which is the most Aethestic Tekken? Anonymous 02/14/2023 (Tue) 23:30:08 No.608
Also fightan vidya thread. Why are fightan vidya dead anons?
>>2010 >even more niggers in Tekken sigh
>>1976 soul calibur VI but I also played ultra street fighter 4 because I wanted to check if it was as hardcore as I remember it being. >>2004 the skintone is more eye-pooping in Tekken 7 while tekken 8 tries to be realistic so the skinetone feels more oily and semi-huwhyte, also the lighting is better but that is probably because of ray tracing? >>2010 >>2011 But there have always been a nigger in Tekken or since 3 because of Eddy was popular, and then they made a half negro lady that could fight like Eddy in 4 if it wasn't tag?
>>2012 >But there have always been a nigger in Tekken That's why I said even more. >then they made a half negro lady that could fight like Eddy in 4 if it wasn't tag? Christie? Yeah she was in 4 but she's some Brazilian mystery meat. More importantly they had Raven in 5. You'd think that's enough niggers for one franchise, now there's one more.
>>2013 at-least it is just one negro instead of them making all of them into niggers. That will probably happen in the next tag game, that all of them can be niggers even the panda bear and the raptor plus the kangaroo.
>>2017 You know how there's body type selection now? There's gonna be a race selection in every game, have the same character in different races so that all promo material for every game would be nothing but shitskins. That's the future, screencap this.

>>2155 Probably thinking "Why didn't I go into vidya INSTEAD?"
>>2156 Isn't he disgusted by 3DPD?
>>2160 What? No, he's both married w/ kids, and he's hired (Toshio Suzuki has, actually) literally hundreds of them at his studio over the decades. His colorist (female, the late Michiyo Yasuda) was with him since they first worked together at Toei Dega.
>>2165 I meant 3D as in graphics.

>the state of fighting games
>>2857 What went wrong?
>>2859 I guess there isn't a way to make fighting games too easy and too woke, so they're just dying out
>>2857 What is the first one?
Allegedly they're rebooting Mortal Kombat. Because what else can you do.
>>2869 Idol(?) Showdown? Never heard of it.
>>2934 Uh, I guess everyone can finally be black now...
>>2941 they already made every female ugly
>>2938 This one looks better due to the industrial setting which is very Tekken.
>>1587 >I can't code >Planned out everything from designs, gameplay, visuals style, "story" etc Story of many here, i suppose devs nowadays are kinda the same hence the use of easy to use engines like UE. Not justifying it because one can push something to look out of ordinary which wasn't the case here, Tekken there looked like MK11 Shao Kahn arena fight. >>2934 >rebooting Mortal Kombat Last game ended up with Liu Kang becoming God and inventing time so it sounds logical for them to reboot. Although have to admit the original concept of that ending was pretty decent, it implied the next story would be about the fighters of old/young versions of the veterans, for example the original Kung Lao being the game's defacto protagonist aka hundreds of years before MKI. Basically a prequel so far behind that it might be a new storyline albeit with the same old figures (elements gods sans Raiden, Goro, Shang Tsung) although the Earth's fighters would be mostly chinamen, natives and medieval warriors like crusaders or some sea italian adventurers.
>>2963 They already rebooted the series with 9, which is still the defacto modern NuMK game so another reboot is just a sign of creative bankruptcy. Not like anyone cares about the story in a Mortal Kombat game but for almost 20 years they managed to weave it in a way just about enough for people to care, but when they rebooted it to be the muh cinematic fighting game it went to shit fast. And now other fighting game copying this formula and it's a complete shitfest all around.
>>2967 >Not like anyone cares about the story in a Mortal Kombat game I do What now Still not enough to make it above what the first and foremost priority should be which is the gameplay >in a way just about enough for people to care This, making it about the story only is absurdity but not surprising taking into consideration MK as a series had always to rely on alternative content like minigames, long story modes or extras, like the gore and graphics themselves dating back to the first game, to compete because in terms of gameplay they were always behind most other series. The fact that competition is now copying them means they don't have the tools to compete with gameplay anymore.
>>2969 >The fact that competition is now copying them means they don't have the tools to compete with gameplay anymore. They do. Any jap fighting game is leagues above MK but MK sells more because of muh story mode, which is what normalfags are interested in more than the gameplay. A technical fighting game where story is just a small flavor is hard and not immersive™, but a casual, story-oriented fighting game with a lot of cutscenes is easy and very immersive™. So japs look at this shit and have to adapt
>>2973 I understand but to be completely honest with you i haven't seen a dude who plays MK for the story ONLY, i liked it at some point but my main meal was the tower/ladder thing. I know japs still make them good but i think normalfags forgot the splitscreen experience other than sports so they either jump into the casual online experience or a single-player mode compelling enough, Soul Calibur had some interesting ones. But that's what i've seen, i don't know anymore because tournaments do not make the market but even so one can see what happens with the upper-tier of users; it's not pretty, a bunch of neurotics coupled with legitimately mentally ill people obsessed enough to be vocal about changing the gameplay instead of trying to be better. I just want a new Bushido Blade-esque game. For Honour wasn't it.
>>2987 >I understand but to be completely honest with you i haven't seen a dude who plays MK for the story ONLY I doubt you interact much with an average reddit poster tbh. Back in the day dudes played MK for the gore and because it was an easy fighting game so you felt like you're a great video gamer. There's still that crowd of course but after the MK9 reboot the amount of NPCs who got into MK due to all the cutscenes in the story mode went up exponentially.

>>2994 Never thought about it that way, yeah i concede i think that might happen way too often in that userbase, they are the ones who spend the most too, blindly often, so i guess that's why shit gets catered to them. Makes me wonder what happened to the dudes who were very deep into waifu/RPG-Fatlus/otaku scene that spend a pretty penny for even low-quality posters, they practically financed the RPG scene of the late Gen 6 and some stuff of the early Gen 7.
>>3003 >Makes me wonder what happened to the dudes who were very deep into waifu/RPG-Fatlus/otaku scene Just like with everything else, it diminished to a small niche. You can still find games like that that are Japan-only, some obscure releases, mobile shit and so on. Even JRPGs are made to resemble western games now, in looks and morality, so the golden age of weeb vidya culture is gone.
>Mortal Kombat 1 >all about muh cutscenes and story >this is super serious now >not a single white person Here's your Mortal Kombat reboot.
>>3029 >2 minute long trailer >not even a sign of gameplay
>>3029 Looks like that shitty movie they made a few years back. I wonder if these are related.
>>3029 Yes, pretty much confirms what everyone thought in MK11 >Raiden giving Liu Kang the Earth's God status and reset time >Old Kung Lao being the co-protagonist while surprisingly his new buddy is someone reminiscent of what Raiden was >Young Shang Tsung being the original Earth's bad guy like shown in MKII >Due to time reset/God intervention Sub-Zero and Scorpion being buddies now >Story ending practically being spoiled already in the trailer Very interesting but nothing surprising other than the Raiden being a farmer thing now, most of these were already known in the past game. Looks pretty good... for an intro cutscene like Deception had, no fucking gameplay at all unless some of these were fatalities which still is no gameplay as those are pre-rendered. Also this is supposedly 500 years before, what the fuck are Scorpion/Sub-Zero doing here and what's the gameplay innovations now? not everything is story mode, at least past trailers in the old era showed what would be the new thing. >not a single white person Intriguing but to be fair it is fucking chinatown, half the roster in old MK games were magical chinamen but they should've at least made an european wizard soldier and a prehispanic injun warrior. We can also say >nothing but chinks >>3030 >not even a sign of gameplay Such is current marketing, no sign of the real thing until you go and buy it, even food is starting to become like that aside from old soda commercials.

>>3033 > to be fair it is fucking chinatown, half the roster in old MK games were magical chinamen Literally everyone in the original games were played by a white guy. Even down to the first reboot most characters were still white. But between then and now they got really addicted to soylent and now the entire roaster is muh minorities, chinks and niggers. They're okay with "muh fantasy" bullshit excuse to shove niggers into European settings but a reverse of that? Oh no no, not allowed. And of course nobody is attractive anymore, nobody has huge booba and wears sexy outfits.

expecting any western game to have white people at this point is a folly
>>3034 >Literally everyone in the original games were played by a white guy Let's see: Shang Tsung is a magical old evil chinaman, played by Ho Pak, a korean. Inspired by the typical chinaman magic evil guys, most notably White Brows who was ethnically a chinaman but also Lo Pan from BTILC although he was a manchu. Liu Kang is a magical shaolin renegade chinaman, played by Ho Pak too. Inspired by Bruce Lee and Lik Wong/Riki-Oh, a chinaman and some chinaman mystery meat with probably some flip blood in him. Sub-Zero is a magical chinaman ancient ninja/dishonorabru shadow warrior, played by Daniel Pesina, a mexican. Inspired by the elemental ancient ninjas from chinaland. Scorpion is a magical chinaman ancient ninja/dishonorabru shadow warrior, played by Daniel Pesina too. Inspired by the elemental ancient ninjas from chinaland. Raiden is an ancient chinaman deity, played by Carlos Pesina, a mexican brother of Daniel. Inspired by Lightning in BTILC, chink actor and chink character. Johnny Cage is a martial artist-turned actor with an ancient bloodline which makes him possess supernatural power, played by Daniel Pesina too as a parody of JCVD. Sonya Blade is a special forces bimbo, played by Elizabeth Malecki who was an athletic natural blonde chick picked by Daniel Pesina at a gym. This is the only girl and indeed white, inspired by Cynthia Rothrock ("the kicking ghostly girl" like how dog-eating chinamen fans call her) Kano is a supposedly half-japanese (aka Hapa) half-american super mercenary former green beret in charge of a criminal racket, played by Richard Divizio, an italian-american. Indeed white unless you had another story for the italians. To be fair i don't remember the inspiration for this dude. Goro is a half-human half-draconian thing used by the hell realm to bash the fighters from Earth, he is a clay puppet. So 9 characters that, in fiction, 2 are whites and 6 are asians along with a fucked hybrid fucker. In reality you have 2 asians, 4 spics, 2 whites and a puppet. Because "fiction" is what matters then you have triple the chopsticks than hwite men so yeah, it is chinatown. >Even down to the first reboot most characters were still white Do you want me to keep playing? i don't recall that but perhaps i might be surprised. >But between then and now they got really addicted to soylent That i cannot dispute, the actress who portrayed Sheeva in MK11 was very compelling in terms of acting but downright not visually attractive, the thing about Sheeva is her very nasty look that still arouses more than suspicion if you know what i mean, she's supposed to be a demonic, a paler Grace Jones with 4 arms to jack your limbs off. The MK11 girl is simply an eyesore which doesn't reflect the demonic allure of the MK3 version that in the comics was implied a royal jack-off master. I honestly agree with your sentiment but MK is one of the last media products i would focus my anger, it ALWAYS was chinese-oriented since day one, it is a rip-off from hong kong kung fu movies. It's two elemental ninjas, Bruce Lee/Lik Wong Riki-Oh, White Brows and the thunder god from BTILC (Big Trouble in Little China) along with Jean-Claude Van Damme and Cynthia Rothrock (both the biggest white action stars working in HK) plus the addition of Kano which was a late addition to counter the figure of the american military girl. This game is like getting angry at Jackie Chan movies for not having more white people, why not getting angry for the writers making the new young characters annoying and coalburners, not attractive (you did indeed point this out very well) and downright different canonically from their pre-MK9 iterations (Kabal being always a criminal rather than a cop in 9, Kano being an aussie in tribute to that one actor rather than a crazed hapa, etc)
>>3059 >So 9 characters that, in fiction, 2 are whites and 6 are asians I don't give a fuck who they are in fiction, I said played by a white guy. Raiden, Kitana, Sindel, all ninjas, Quan Chi, even Shang Tsung was played by a white guy in MK3. Etc. Literally the only actual chinks in the entire roster of 4 original games were Liu Kang and Kung Lao. This is what people grew up with, this is the world of Mortal Kombat. But no, now everyone in MK is a chink, even tho like I said it's okay to shove niggers in European settings where they never existed because muh fantasy but can a white guy play a god of thunder in muh fantasy? No no, not allowed, he's super chinky chink now.
>>3336 still looks so bland
