Not sure who was realistically expecting Bruce to return (sorry BH). Bryan was his 'successor' back in TK3 and Bruce's place has always been a bit iffy since then. Didn't think he'd make this round or roster cuts.
Is it me or her head so small?X_X Oh DJ... You never get of dat annoying evil laugh of yours, aren't ya'?
My god is that a terrible bad design choice for a Bruce replacement. If the game in general would still not be super fun I would stop playing the series already. Does anyone else think that their character designs are going downhill or is that just me and I am getting too old for something like Lucky Chloe, Claude or Josie?

Harada really is a miserable fucking prick, I can't believe himSpoiler: Don't get me wrong, though (click to see content)The design's good and all, but here as a replacement for Bruce is a terrible, terrible idea Bad News GBK said, March 29, 2015, 01:54:03 pmMy god is that a terrible bad design choice for a Bruce replacement.

Josie is ehhhh, and Lucky Chloe is too cutesy to be in Tekken, but whatever I guess.
I don't see why she's a bad replacement for Bruce. Bruce was bland anyway. Not saying he wasn't likable or he was bad, he was fine, but he was "just an archetype" with little uniqueness going for him as a character, the most you can say against this is "she replaced a character I really liked", which is only a subjective reason to say it's a bad idea to replace Bruce with her.http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2015/mar/29/jin-devil-jin-josie-rizal-kickboxer-philippines-officially-unveiled-tekken-7/Jin, Devil Jin, Rosie official trailers.Uh, the "power crash" moves can be held ? And keep blocking several hits ? Is that right ?

Maybe we'll see Bruce and all those who got left out in Tekken 7: Noxillium Ultimatum or something (I couldn't find anything that rhymed with Dark Resurrection or Bloodline Rebellion)
I like the new generation. Yeah I know the joke was about clipping, not great choreographing there.Power Crush moves can absorb multiple hits as long as none of them are lows, can't be held though. Should also take the time to mention that all rage arts register as one hit now and doesn't scale on multiple hits.

I need to start paying attention to these things.And speaking of Rage Arts, hopefully the new characters will have some impressive ones. IIRC, The Arts for Chloe and Katalina were shown, but did they unveil the ones for Shaheen, Kazumi, and Claudio by any chance?
jafar said, March 29, 2015, 04:12:36 pmYeah...... "The new generation"What can anyone do to "fix" that issue?
bruce was a bland looking motherfucker and i won't miss him. i think her design is alright except for the snow white tribute palette
Niitris said, March 29, 2015, 11:26:18 amNot sure who was realistically expecting Bruce to returnThe ones that got to several Grand Finals in Tag 2 I bet. Oh well.Am I the only one that feels Katarina is slowly becoming forgettable? She's barely getting any kind of noticing.
She's planned to be for beginners and button mashers, those she's aimed at won't make videos of her but if she works out for what she's meant to do, you'll see more of her on console.As much as Bruce is nice to play as, Josie already has more personality than him with the same moves (probably). The only bad thing is that she's another typical young girl. But I'm fine with her design if she can show some skills and confidence in it.

Mgbenz said, March 29, 2015, 10:12:57 amWhy kickboxing? The country has many martial arts of it's own. And Bruce already exists.Because there is an actual specific Filipino style of kickboxing called Yaw-Yan or the 'Dance of Death'. I don't know how much of a role that plays here, but I'm assuming that is part of her style.Seeing her in action for the first time... I think she's OK. There's nothing that really makes me want to go 'Wow. She's an awesome character' despite the fact that she looks really cute. I don't think she'll replace Bruce, but you never know.
