My take on the shortcomings of Noctis' inclusion in Tekken 7. I see a lot of parallels with other newcomers and guest characters that the Tekken team could take example from to improve in the future.

I was sick at the time so forgive my course voice

Necrid is a good comparison imo. Both are guest characters made by creators outside of Bamco who have the ability to manifest an assortment of weapons and lack story inclusion within the host game.

Watch and comment on what you think or talk about other guest characters.

Also if you are on pc then check out NiceKun's Noctis mod that makes him the old, much cooler Noctis that was scrapped for the weesh boy band version. https://youtu.be/4-iTJLe57dQ
