That said, l'm just basing this on my own experiences. Not saying it was the same for everyone else. I've always been a VF fan, more so than Tekken, but l've enjoyed both series in addition to other FGs over the years. However, if l'm not feeling something, regardless of how much l've enjoyed previous iterations, l'm not going to stick with it. It could be the next VF for all l care and l would drop that shit if it didn't meet my expectations. And it should... After all, l'm paying for it.

Then once I got a console I wanted to get into the scene... but there was nothing except tekken. The game may have been good but we also didnt have any other option till much later during the T6 Era.

If you want to talk about a game that rewarded time put in and had a well-balanced cast, that was it. You were rewarded for good movement and spacing, and the game ultimately felt less about combos than it did about pokes and mixups. I can't speak for anyone else but l loved that game; not because l had no choice but because it was immensely fun and rewarding to play. It was the last Tekken game l thoroughly enjoyed playing. If T6 had been anything like DR, I probably would have spent more time with it.

You lost to a random joe is entirely your fault because you don't know how to fight an alisa, capo, whatever? I don't know why it's not as popular in Cape Town. But from the mails, it's simply they were interested in other games and Tekken wasn't their first choice anyways. T6BR was probably more popular in CT because it didn't have a lot of competitors in the fighting game industry when it came out. I don't see anyone say it isn't much fun as BR or anything like that. I think it's the same for the west. More options for fighting games. Nothing to do with TTT2 being ass.

The game died in the West because Eastern players were better at it? I don’t know about that. I think TTT2 failed in the West because people in the West don’t like the game. It’s that simple. Why do you think people in Cape Town didn’t play it much? It is because we were upset about the nerfs to Bob, or the skill gap between us and Koreans? No, it’s because the game just wasn’t as much fun as the previous ones. People weren’t put off by the fact that they would dump a massive amount of time into the game and then get bopped by Knee. They were upset that a random joe off the street who’d been playing the game for 3 months, would rock up and random his way to a win.

Every top player loved TTT2 because it's the most balanced tekken out there. Sure there's some crazy stuff like Capo's b+1,4 but top player don't see an issue. They barely eat that CH. Those who eat b+1,4 are just spamming mindlessly and deserve to be punished with that. I don't think TTT2 died because the game sucked. T6BR was already suffering with the release of so many new fighting games. TTT2 also have a higher learning curve than the generic BR where the west just spams one move until they win. TTT2 you can't do that...TTT2 really showed who are the top players and who are not. Simply because SS got better, spammable moves don't exist. So the west quit. Bob can't spam d+1 until he wins...all his other shit is getting SS'd or SW'd. Way to solve that? learn to SS and SW...but they play Bob like
