Namco should really remake the original trilogy as Tekken: Iron Fist Trilogy with the following: - Tekken 8 gameplay - Tekken 4-like story mode with brand new intros and endings but with the originals as unlockables, and intros and endings for the Tekken 1 unlockable characters too, and unlock Devil Kazuya in T1 by beating him with Heihachi. - Team Battle, Practice, Survival and Theatre modes in all three. - A mode similar to Tekken Force in T1 and T2. - Tekken Ball and Tekken Bowl in each game - Exclude Gon from T3 for copyright reasons if necessary

This has been the best Tekken Lore site I've seen on KZfaq. No snarky commentary, just the rich story that always seems hidden by even the game designers themselves. I hope you continue to do all the Tekken characters.

Like all the other chapters, this was wonderfully done! I love how you not only focus on the main character but all the sub bosses too. Great world building! Michelle is such an underrated character who I feel has gone forgotten over the years. No doubt that Jack is the next chapter since we know for sure that Law and Kazuya are the final battle and Kazuya is for sure the final chapter. Here's to hoping that you do Tekken 2 because Heihachi's revenge so deserves a chapter.
@TheLoresmithАй бұрын
Thanks for the comment! Appreciate it, the idea is to make the tournament a coherent flow from beginning to end, with all the character interactions in between. Jack, law and kazuya left from the main cast!
@candasturan4559Ай бұрын
17:03 This made me really emotional 🥺❤️ Thank you for your in-depth analysis and own interpretations of the fighters as of yet. I love how you honored her family and her heritage by also highlighting that revenge was only one side to Michelle's story. She was one of Heihachi's many victims. But she didn't let her trauma stay in her way. She's to this day one of Tekkens' most determined, fiercest yet still caring fighters. And I'm glad she carried this legacy over to her daughter, who also honors her heritage through her research and through advertising her work. This shows once again how crucial the Changs are to Tekken, and I can't wait for their return. This episode made childhood me really happy. Thank you! ❤️

Michelle’s interaction with Nina is foreshadowing in a way, as Nina would have to deal with the reality of the loss of her own father in Tekken 2. It could be argued that Nina didn’t deal with it or hasn’t had the chance since Ogre possessed her shortly after. Or, could Nina’s cold pursuit of security by money and avoidance of a relationship with Steve Fox be her way of coping with the loss of Richard Williams? Is she avoiding that pain by causing her targets to feel it? Is she deflecting that pain to Anna? 🤔
@TheLoresmithАй бұрын
This is good character stuff! Definitely adds depth to her character, I’ll be sure to incorporate this! Thanks, good stuff! Honestly I didn’t plan Michelle’s father and Nina’s that way but it actually fits.
@BCDC123Ай бұрын
@@TheLoresmith Absolutely! I know most of the Tekken community doesn’t think as deeply about this kind of stuff, but your channel provides the space to do so. Thank you for that! I also thought I was great how you pointed out that Nina’s words impacted Michelle to the point of growth, leaving her to self reflect. Michelle is cool, but Nina is my favorite Tekken character. 😂 I just think she’s written off as “ice cold” by most but there’s a reason she never pulled the trigger when Steve Fox was her target. And although, Nina has had multiple opportunities to k!ll Anna, (especially after defeating her in Tekken 5) she hasn’t. What’s stoping her? Ice cold is a facade. There’s still something there.
