Summary

Tekken 8’s menus and matchmaking frustrate him: repeated loading screens, confirmations, waits, rejected matches, and AFK opponents undermine “quick” play. He finds graphics adequate and gameplay familiar, but Lily’s somersaults, low kicks, juggling, and practice sessions make matches entertaining. Unfamiliar modes, keyboard layouts, reversed inputs, and perceived recording lag compound frustration; he ultimately loses to Law after nearly winning.

Insight

He repeatedly rejects flashy games when friction and limited novelty outweigh immediate entertainment.
