We're getting closer and closer to CGI graphics as gameplay.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

It doesnt even look a generation (10 years since Tekken7) above Tekken7

Like I said in the trailer thread, underwhelming graphics, but kind of expected from current Namco.

What matters most for a fighting game is stable framerate, not graphics. So they will always be a bit « under-optimized » to keep some framerate room.
Tekken 7 looked waaay worse than that especially the XBO version (720p and every character looking like it was covered in Vaseline).

Yes, there are definitely some lights not casting shadows. I'm not a fan but it can be many reasons: it's still in production, it's a look they are going for, and it's more performant than if every light cast shadows.

What specifically are you looking for in regards to the franchise?
Assuming this isn’t a troll thread, I feel that it’s better to just ask you directly rather than play this song and dance of ‘proving you wrong’ that everyone else is doing.

Not on pc.
Blame Namco for that horrifying Xbox port. Doesnt mean Tekken 7 doesnt look great and performs flawlessly (bar the idiotic loading times)

I dont know, why is it up to me to think of new stuff? Isnt that up to the devs

This isn’t what I was asking if you. Let’s be earnest here. Assuming you’ve played prior Tekken games, you could easily answer my question. I’ll make it easy for you:
Do you want a separate single player campaign? Like SF6 is doing?
Do you want mini games like the older Tekkens?
Do you want an MK-like crypt mode?
Do you want a more involved tutorial system?
Do you want new cast members?
Do you want a complete change in mechanics like Tekken 4?
Do you want a tag system?
Or more projectile based gameplay like guest character Akuma?
Do you want more guest characters?
All I ask is that you throw the thread a tiny bone so that we can have a decent conversation, instead of a thread that will vanish within 24 hours.

I wish Soul Calibur got the budget Tekken gets. I thought it looked impressive.

And the talent pool is gone too. They rely on third party engines. IMO it's part as to why Tekken has lost its unique visual language. Each Tekken game used to be a visual paradigm shift up to and including T5. T8 looks like they just settled for the bare minimum and then overdoing the particle effects and hit stuns to obnoxious levels. I miss when Tekken was a bit more grounded and toned down.

You might have just answered your own question...
That said, doesn't it feel weird how SF6 seems more of a "next step" than Tekken 8 does from 7? Just something I noticed.

You mean graphically?
imo tekken looks better and a bigger jump graphically.
I mean "In totality" (thus far).

Because the animations and joint rigging is recycled. Most of the 3D meshes are reused. It lacks the unique aesthetics the series is known for.
The male characters look like roided out Hobbits. It does not even try to create the illusion of fighting in a world instead of a circular or rectangular stage. It would be interesting to see anatomically correct character models with interactive stages like Dead or Alive 4.
I really do not get why movement has to be gimped to put back dash canceling on a pedastil. Also, all the mechanics they keep adding overpower existing mechanics instead of being in line with them and parts that need refinement get neglected (like strikes hitting air and connecting or strikes going through characters and missing).
As far as content is concerned, they need to bring back survival and ghost battle. A nine stage arcade mode with character interactions and fmv endings relevant to the characters like Tekken 5 would also be nice.

Before I saw this video I had the same opinion as the OP. Definitely a generational leap in terms of graphics. However, fighting games have become stale to me.

These graphics are a generational leap, as well as the game system getting a complete overhaul, adding shit like meter and a system that changes your character's moves to guarantee follow up pressure. I don't know what tf anyone is talking about saying that this game is "Tekken 7.5" - probably people who don't pay much attention to how the games play?

Well the previous Tekken did look like a PS3 game.

Look, I'm critical as can be when it comes to Tekken 8 but can we please not with these fuckin' low effort threads? Something that you could have just posted in any of the existing ones? Fuck.

SF6 looks great to me, but what make a big difference is Tekken 8 having more variety of stages designs Arena with walls, bigger arena with walls, some have balcony, and they'll probably be more varity like floor breaks etc, while in SF6 all Stage are basically the same and only difference are the looks and asthetics (still looking forward for SF6 though)You mean graphically?
imo tekken looks better and a bigger jump graphically.
