Negan playable character for Tekken 7

If anyone can tell me a more out there character for a fighting game let me know, personally I wanna say Sheldon for Injustice but I realize they're both owned by Warner Bros

Maybe Steve Urkel showing up in Mortal Kombat?

I have been done with 'guest characters' since Soul Calibur 4. They really ruin some of the immersion and it bothers me.

Myself in a Street Fighter game.

Is it just me or does T7 look pretty awful for a UE4 game? I mean even if you make concessions for the art style, there are a lot of really bland looking textures and low poly counts on characters. It makes SF5 look like a work of art, and that?s not exactly a great compliment for that game either.

I guess we?ll have to wait for MK11 to see how good a fighting game can look on this engine. Hell, even MKX looked better on UE3 and I?m only saying that as a fact, not a fanboy.

Did fighting games just stop giving a shit?

Whether it's comics, TV or games Negan's whole character always boils down to "desperate hyping".

He did save the TV show though. This charismatic villain was just what the show needed. Excellently cast as well.

Lol never expected him to be in Tekken.

To each his own, I think he's a bore and a drag.

I stopped watching Walking Dead around the end of Season 2. I'll still try Negan out. As far as crossover characters, I was hoping for a Virtua Fighter character. I mean, we already got a character for Fatal Fury and Street Fighter. Having Akira, Sarah, Jacky, or Pai Chan would make everything come full circle.

Depends on who you're talking about (Cross Tag Battle with its horrible DLC). Fighting games have always used crossover appeal to grab new audiences ever since X-Men vs. Street Fighter. At this point, the fighting genre needs it to survive. Look at Injustice 2 and Mortal Kombat X(L), They're the top selling fighting games for a reason, minor crappy DLC and season passes aside.

Ha! That's hilariously stupid.

Is there any other genre of game that does this? I guess there was an SMT game that had Dante from DMC, but that's all I can think of. Why do fighting games always need story-breaking guest characters from entirely different media?

Fighting games are the last place you need to look for immersion.
I hate most guest characters by principle.

Fighting games, the ones I like anyways, often have very interesting worlds and stories I am heavily invested in...and then Darth Vader or Jason walks in and ruins it.

1. Publicity and to attract new audiences.

2. And most importantly...

Good news, you won't see Vader in SCVI. Instead, you get Geralt! Enjoy.
