Introducing myself here bc why not

I’m eclipse (Alex), a non-binary #TEKKEN8 competitor from Kentucky & former written content creator within the FGC

- Tekken player since 2016 (bears)
- former Echo Fox/UYU/independent content work
It's genuinely unreal how good the Oblivion remake is

I cannot believe this was just announced and dropped same day lol

Haven't posted about it over here yet but my God, Tekken 8 season 2 is an aggravating experience and terrible sign of clueless devs.

I enjoy having new things to learn, but these changes are so fundamentally jarring and detrimental to character uniqueness (ironically contradicting their PR talk)

good morning y'all

Looking ahead to TWT 2025, I'm still very interested in opportunities to collaborate with another FGC organization for any communications roles available. Prior written content experience with UYU & Echo Fox; professional resume and portfolio available.

Reposts appreciated

Guess who has yet to jump ship from the other hellhole app

I really can't wait for T8 S2 at this point, the game is so stale and uninspiring right now

Half Life Alyx time?

Playing more Claudio recently has really given me this odd perspective of Kazumi-esque neutral with even more ignorant small Tekken tools

I guess it could kinda make sense considering two characters built for T7-era game design philosophy though

Ended 2024 prioritizing self-care a ton today, really hoping to maintain that momentum even when my usual work schedule resumes lol

Grinded Clive to Tekken King but I def think that's my stopping point with him for right now. He's got some cool stuff but this character doesn't suit me at all lol

The ongoing struggle continues to balance Tekken improvement and setting realistic expectations 🙃 I want to keep learning and enjoying the game, but there's so much that puts me off from investing more into it at this point

homemade chorizo tacos went crazy today

Lowkey thinking about continuing to learn Azu for a pocket character. She seems incredibly slept on rn after early nerfs and I'm honestly pretty eager to see what she gets in S2

Really hope more people continue to migrate to bsky; it's getting so tiring to see right-wing content constantly promoted on Twitter

new collection stuff

Day 1 learning Hwo has been extremely challenging but informative

Kinda see the vision though

Consistently stepping Hei df1:2 is so tough for my pea brain

Investing time into T8 Eddy again this week and I forgot how enjoyable he can be when you're not just trying to diceroll every interaction; I think I overall have a much better idea of how to approach his gameplay so far

Still miserable to fight a competent Eddy tho

Can you not save post drafts on bsky yet?

I really wish online tournaments felt more enticing for me to join. I know they'd probably help tremendously with improvement but I just don't think I'm built for dealing with the challenges that seemingly come up every single time (connection issues, needless wait times, etc.)

Leroy labbing is like, my sole interest in T8 right now lmao

Granted, delay timing on 3,[3] extension blows up uf1, but it's extremely nice to know it's an effective option for shutting down 3,[1+2]

Think it may be time to budget for therapy again lol

Collection grows (got a crazy deal, just glad to have access to the Switch library again)

Feels like I’ve spent the past month playing nothing but Leroy, and my bear gameplay has absolutely suffered because of it

Really gotta fix that soon but I’m also glad to push myself by branching out and further developing a solid secondary; Jack was definitely not the move in T8 for me
