...lose.
In the latest edition of the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences Game Makers Notebook podcast, Harada discussed with PlayStations Shuhei Yoshida about the Tekken series. https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/tekken-boss-says-younger-players-prefer-team-games-so-they-can-shift-responsibility-if-they-lose/ It's kind of funny that this is Harada's way of saying the younger generation is soft in comparison to the more competitive side of the older generation, because I kind of share that mentality of learning to take a loss. But at the same time, Harada does have a point that the most popular games right now are mostly team based games: CS:GO, DOTA 2, Apex Legends, TF2, LoL, Valorant, Rainbow Siege, DbD (playing as survivors), etc. Many people hate the feeling of losing and that's a big problem in fighting games in general. There has been steps in trying to help with the anxiety of going online, but the biggest hurdle has been the 1v1 aspect. With online netcode getting better (because the Japanese devs are now FINALLY putting in rollback netcode into their games) there's only soo much you can blame "lag" or "inputs" until you realize that the main reason you're losing is simply a skill issue. Whether it's motion inputs or pulling off a combo consistently, Fighting games has been the one genre that never sees the level of popularity that the other genre's sees, with the exception of Mortal Kombat and Smash Bros that is primarily driven because of the IP not because they are fighting games. Do you agree with Harada that fighting games need to evolve to a "multiplayer" game in order for the genre to survive? Is this the next step to make the genre more accessible? A lot of fighting game players (especially the pros) greatly disagree with Harada, but I know plenty of casuals that would love a team based system into fighting games to help take away from the anxiety and blaming others for their loses. --- DI MOLTO! ...

Jokes on him, ill just blame the developersThis honestly. From what I've seen, the hip thing to do when you're losing is to suddenly become an expert on what is and isn't good game design. --- Still waiting on that third threat ... Copied to Clipboard!

This honestly. Very true as well, you're seeing a surge of Tekken 8 players getting off the "honey moon" phase and saying the game sucks because of the heat system lol. --- DI MOLTO! ... Copied to Clipboard!

With online netcode getting better (because the Japanese devs are now FINALLY putting in rollback netcode into their games) there's only soo much you can blame "lag" or "inputs" until you realize that the main reason you're losing is simply a skill issue.Even if it's rare, I think the uncertainty is what bothers a lot of people. What if you're in the middle of match and lag is what costs you the victory? It's very frustrating. Not only does being in a team soften the blow a bit, but also 1v1 play tends to be shorter, more intense matches where every second counts. So even a small amount of lag could conceivably cost you a match. I think a lot of people just don't want to risk it. Also when it's 1v1 I think people want to be able to see and interact with the person in real time more. Playing with random strangers that you never meet can be lonely, but feeling like part of a team makes it less so. --- "It's Dyin' time." Captain Bruce Diehard, Die Hard ... Copied to Clipboard!

I definitely have friends that only play team games and of course when they lose it's never their fault

Hes not wrong but theres still a ton of 1v1 or heros in team games. Theres a reason people are considered greats even in teams and its hard to pretend the newer generation doesnt focus on being the superstar which is the opposite problem that plagues the scenes (and main contributor of the bad team mentality)

The necessary ratio of practice:play for traditional fighting games can feel really skewed toward practice if you're genuinely interested in appreciating how the game works, and it's not as simple to make it a shared social activity as queueing together in a shooter.

This is just basic deducing skills if you look at like a decent amount of twitch streamers with a focus on multiplayer games like overwatch then they switch to Fortnite solo and then go back to overwatch so theyre secure theyre not to blame its the random teammates. My cousin blames his friends on cod and when he plays with randoms he blames the randoms whatever game he does its never him by himself its so noticeable

Harada is silly. When I lose it's obviously because the other guy is hacking.
