地獄の花 said, December 13, 2015, 09:54:51 amGenesis said, December 13, 2015, 05:55:53 amwhat if TXSF takes place before T7, and whatever happens in TXSF is why Akuma is indebted to Kazumi?just a random idea.nah the debt they were talking about happened decades ago, if txsf happened before the debt thing gouki is talking about then most characters would be in a diaper.The debt is this:He's there to repay for that. Shoryuken article was implying he wasnt the last street fighter that would be appearing.
and im not really a fan of that. i mean i don't mind akuma as a guest character in tekken, but why include him in the canon? thats gonna open up alot of questions about continuity, universe sharing and whatnot.for example is he gonna remember all the things that happened to him SFxTK? did this "debt" happen in it's events? is SFxTK now part of the tekken canon? cross overs should be self contained imo.
its a good move to get people excited for TK7, since yknow, it was very lackluster. adding Akuma along with dem sweet new costumes and graphics is a good marketing strategy that works well with both Capucahhm and Namco.

I like to pretend that SF x TK never happened in any form. Yes, even when a SF character literally joins the Tekken cannon.

How do you expect anyone to have a clear cut answer to thatShoryuken does seem to think so, but no official word give any hint about that.
I hope a lot more that at least 6 older characters like Nina Williams are part of the update. And maybe 1-2 new guys that are more about real martial arts styles than the last handful of new characters.

Yeah, I think most of the T5 endings showed him get disintegrated or absorbed. Shame too, he came out as an alternative to the Devil lineage, slightly showing why Heihachi had it in him to stand up to the Devil power despite being human. It would have been interesting to contrast that source of power to Kazumi in T7. But hey, we still have to see why Heihachi wouldn't trust Kazumi's powers and why Kazumi was sure Heihachi would end up throwing the world in disaster and war.
