My birthday last year was around the time Tekken 7 came out. My friends got together to buy me the Collector's Edition for my present, the one with the Kazuya and Mishima statuette in. I was so touched.
But honestly... after having played TTT2, Tekken 7 felt like a disappointment. And I honestly haven't played it all that much, and I feel rather guilty about it, considering it was a gift from my friends. There's just something about Tekken 7 that feels... lacking. I can't quite put my finger on it.
I usually main Nina who has been my favourite character throughout the series. When Lars joined, I grew to like him as well. And they are both really cool in T7 (though I wish Nina had her black biker suit available, like she does in Story Mode). But in TTT2, I fell in love with Kunimitsu, who is of course nowhere to be seen in T7 (which makes sense since she hasn't been in a Tekken main game since T2). So maybe that's what is lacking.
I'm not a big fan of any of the new characters... and Master Raven I absolutely hate, more or less just being a clone of Raven who I liked so much better. Or maybe I'm just being a bit salty that she took the "female ninja" spot where I'd rather have it was Kunimitsu. Either way, I'm not a fan.
I have long thought of giving it another go, especially now that Noctis is a guest character. I'm not usually a fan of guest characters, especially not when knowing so many Legacy characters are being requested... MKX made me hate guest characters even more... But Noctis is actually a character I like, as I'm a big Final Fantasy fan and I enjoyed FF15 a lot, so yeah... maybe I'll give T7 another chance.
