Clive feels emblematic of the direction for Tekken 8, in a negative way. More explosions, more particle effects, more enormous buttons that fill up the whole screen, just sound and fury. Michael Bay explosions for people with iPad Baby Brain. Tekken has always had fantastical elements and nonsense, but Clive feels like the developers telling us they have no intention of toning anything down. At least he doesn't have the stupid Noctis haircut.

Clearly y'all put a lot of love and care into the character, and you love the FF source material, but this is not the source material I wanted at all and knowing that I'm going to have to look at all this FF stuff makes me not want to play Tekken.
