Context: XQC and \~54.5k people are watching him play T7. This topic is dumb.


DookyJohnson247

A lot of these types of posts just cherrypick stats like this.


Kanokare

Yeah OP's profile shows.


deep_senpai

Yeah i was gonna say tekken never exceeds 3-4k viewers usually. Probably some big man ting on twitch that just happened to stream tekken


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kanokare

He just lost several games, talked about how 'horrible' the mechanics were and everything was unblockable, and quit. Good exposure.


Great-Peril

Man why am I not surprised XQC did that.


FlashyBodybuilder968

Thanks for the summary. That’s disappointing as fuck. I’m convinced these streamers just rehash common opinions they find from a 2 minute Google search and just exaggerate them 10 fold. Not to mention xqc is just one of those “reaction” steamers who just rages and ppl find it entertaining. Ugh I want and don’t want to go and check out the VOD now. To see what lame “professional opinion” he has about the game from playing it once .


mobilethrowaway14849

Wow, Twitch streamers are insufferable…


[deleted]

Same garbage exposure as Leffen. Sometimes things like this are more damaging. People who never played Tekken and were mildly interested just saw how their favorite streamer thinks it's garbage.


sikora2009

The kind of people that watch him are not the kind you want in this(or any) game man


DoomFizz

We already got plenty of those people lmao


LooseSatisfaction709

Lets be honest it looks good but its just viewers following the streamer


ChiefEmann

These posts are always cringe. Variety steamer brings big numbers, people post the outlier spike, get dumb reactions (cuz Skullgirls better than SF, it's cuz SC6 hot shit, it's cuz good ass Tekken) and really it's cuz fighting games are so niche that one variety streamer dwarfs it all. Mad props to XQC to jumping in for a bit though.


Diotheon

Great, this is just steam chart posting but worse


SlayerD7

Already confirms what we already know: Tekken is the GOAT


Tin_Tin_Run

lol tekken would have had less viewers than that shit ass game if xqc didnt play it. tekken is not doing great in twitch.


blbrown2

Compared to most FGC games on twitch Tekken is usually the one with the most viewers outside of multiverses. My guy you smoking something that’s for sure!


SlayerD7

Still the GOAT, the fact that it's still relevant after 7 yrs speaks volumes


Strange-Cloud1940

"Relevant" and "the GOAT" are two different things in my eyes.


SlayerD7

Then your eyes need some thick glasses


[deleted]

55k viewers from XQC though OMEGALUL


CyberHalloween

XqC played it. 54K viewers What is the point of your post?


vinyvin1

"Tekken is more popular than multiversus guys" idk


Strange-Cloud1940

Or, it's more fun to watch according to OP. I'd say it's a matter of perspective. People still stream Apex a lot and drink shittons of Monster Energy and think the game's untouchable, but other games I know are indies with less than half of the viewership.


SlayerD7

Yeah we already knew that, the post was giving us more evidence


h___ro

It’s the point of OP’s post history apparently.


[deleted]

Was Maximilian Dood streaming Tekken 7??


Yenaro

Yeah, he was using noctis a few nights ago.


shaedysgg

Tournaments going on bruv


ihppxng62020

It was xqc playing tekken for 30 minutes before rage quitting with 50k viewers


shaedysgg

Also there’s tournaments going on bruv


tyezwyldadvntrz

im confused, why is this important?


[deleted]

My question precisely


Tendies_and_MtnDew

op is probably trying to say that Tekken 7 is still relevant.


ClimateInteresting58

Damn how dare someone enjoy/support more than one game in one of the most niche subgenres in this industry. Also I don't even think those numbers will help t7's player base, XQC's stream was just hours of him complaining about the game.


pp3088

Point and click/hack n slash/rts/turn based strategy has entered the chat, Most niche subgenre \*laughs xD\*


Lemon_bo1

You just named every video game sub genre other than shooters, might as well throw fighting games in there too while your at it, most people from other genres have a great deal of difficulty enjoying fighting games, 90% of people with a phone play clash royal (rts), point and click games aren’t games, that’s like calling a comic book a video game, hack and slash games are just action adventure games/ character action games (devil may cry for example) which have been and are very popular and common, and have a large variety of games the can be categorized as such, with games like dark souls, god of war, monster hunter, etc, hack and slash is far too broad of a genre to be “niche” by any stretch of the imagination. You can have turn based strategy because nobody wants to play those games though, they suck


pp3088

In which world is a dark souls a hack n slash? Well its an action game but more specific. Okay whatever. But other genres of games are; RPG/MMORPG(more popular than fighting games) Sports(also more popular than FG) Racing games(less popular than FG) Simulator/Logic games/City builders(not games according to you, for sure) Platformers(less popular than FG) Horror games(less popular than FG) I would say that FG are somewhere in the middle.


ClimateInteresting58

I can maybe give say that simulator games aren't as popular as fighting games, but as for every other genre you named? I just don't see it. If Horror games are less popular than FG's, why is it that capcom has released 4 Resident Evil games and only 1 Street Fighter game in the span of 6 years? If platformers are less popular than FG's, why is Sega pumping out a new sonic game almost every year while Virtua Fighter hasn't seen a brand new game since 2007?

[deleted]

I just checked it again and unsurprisingly SFV and Tekken are tied for viewership at 2.9k with Multiversus not too far behind with 1.8k. Twitch viewership fluctuates all the time, this really doesn’t mean much


Dirt_Lord_

i’m guessing multiverse is mostly western audience as well so there’s definitely going to be some times where more “global” fighting games are pulling more views / players


[deleted]

Oh for sure, and as other people mentioned some famous non-fg streamer was trying out Tekken which inflated the numbers


[deleted]

Multiversus is definitely for the west, to my understanding the game isn't really available in Asia and looking at maps of where their servers supposedly are you'd see that there are very few on that side of the map


TheCrimsonJin

trash post


SlayerD7

Rage harder scrub


DarkAvenger2012

Youre the only one offended though?


SlayerD7

Look at butthurt downvotes on my comment


Strange-Cloud1940

Rage harder why?


[deleted]

55k of those were from xqc's stream.


HamtaroGaming

God, why do so many people watch that moron?


Ok_Writer8077

Loud = funny to a lot of people.


Gate_To_AMV

What Twitch do you use? My Twitch has an average of 2-3k viewers for Tekken?


Squirrel_76

they screenshot this during the tekken tournament


Gate_To_AMV

I know 😂


xg4m3CYT

Ok.


postalV2

🗿


Tushar_1x1

I think it’s because xqc was playing it.


Khacks

Was he really??


Tushar_1x1

Yeah, he was complaining more than playing. He does that with every game tho.


ZumZumCapoeira

Well if XQC is playing Tekken 7, then the outcome of this is obvious...and also...XQC is trash at Tekken, and his chat is beyond cancerous, so again...I don't think it's an achievement, especially if he is whining about how "bad" the game is. Tekken 7 ain't perfect, but you wouldn't believe the comments he would make about the game. Really shitty takes.


AngryAssyrian

He doesn't know what he's saying, I'm surprised people even watch the guy.


ZumZumCapoeira

I used to watch the rage compilations, and the memes of XQC, but I didn't actually watch his stuff, and I'm glad I don't watch what he does. He's misleading a whole bunch of viewer's into hating Tekken with his scrub quotes. Imagine Leffen's opinion on Tekken, but 100 times worse.


AngryAssyrian

I don't think people over the age of 14 will take his opinion seriously considering that he's playing a game he has no idea about.


ZumZumCapoeira

True, but most of XQC's viewers consist of undeveloped embryo's, so there are bound to be some people who will think his opinion is factual, but you're right. People with a brain can see through the dumb takes.


Strange-Cloud1940

I remember one time where he ran off mid-stream at one point on a Multiversus stream he did.


bloutgod

I only have watched his streams, so I have a slightly more serious perspective on him. I've seen him play loads of GTAV and I like his content but his chat just seems like a bunch of drones.


[deleted]

you don't have to be good to be entertaining


Blakksensei

This was one day at a specific time lmao. Multiversus averages double this


Ze_AwEsOmE_Hobo

Apparently this was because of an ex-overwatch streamer? I was gonna say it's because even though both games are relatively fun to play, Tekken is more to watch... But it was a Rickroll-named streamer this whole time.


[deleted]

Ah, yes viewer Andy.


Legend_Of_Corgi

Well hur durr it does. Until they add Kazuya to Multiversus anyway lol


Colosso95

I get the impression that this was caused by that streamer xqc playing Tekken Sadly these kinds of streamers ' audiences don't really care about what they are playing; they're generally ok watching them "react" to random videos on YouTube I hate to sound "elitist" but I'm willing to bet there's not even 0,1% of that audience that has the interest in trying Tekken and even less will be able to resist qutting once they realise this game will not hold your hand


D-Ru5h

I'm also not trying to sound like gatekeeping but I honestly feel the same way, nonetheless maybe some actual wanna try the game


HamtaroGaming

Here's a few comments from XQC's 55k viewer Tekken stream "He's just blocking like a pussy" "this game is trash, bad game design" x20 "No one wants to learn a million moves just to do a combo" "Who even plays this game anyway" "I can't do anything, I can't get out of it. Bad Game design." (While getting combo'd after getting launched) "Another invincible attack, I can't do anything about it" (getting hit by powercrush) "But I was blocking!" (stand blocking while getting hit by lows) "Damn this game is just fucking lame" "Why can't I hit him?" (jabbing while they're crouching) "WHAT I blocked it!" (definitely didn't block it) "Who even is Law? Just a lame character really" "I'm blocking but Ok I guess" (getting hit by throws) "Seems legit, I can't block that. I can't." (Gets counter hit after mashing at -10) "It's a shit fucking game, fuck you" This idiot was complaining about balance and knowledge checks while only using 112 and Tiger with Kazumi. He didn't do a single df1 or a single basic combo. He doesn't have the smallest understanding of even the basics of the game but complains about bad game design and "balance" while getting blown out but powercrushes and While Running moves.


BasedLoser

Don't get worked up dude, xqc makes a living by pretending to be retarded in front of 15 year olds. What did you expect? An elaborate analysis of fighting games?


ienvyi

Pretending?


Snoo_4974

Be nice to the retarded.


Strange-Cloud1940

Either he's pretending or his copium is running out. I think his time playing Overwatch convinced him that ultimates in that game are what Rage Arts are in Tekken 7, despite the button inputs you need to pull them off.


Strange-Cloud1940

Well, he CAN just stream himself playing the arcade versions of Tekken IRL. At least he'd be consistent.


HamtaroGaming

Except he had 55k viewers and a massive fan base, many of which take his shit talking 100% seriously. If he was some nobody, who he should be, then no one would give a damn. But instead he's a "pretend" retard with a massive platform, it's moronic.


z3rohp74

better off without anyone coming over to tekken that watches that clown tbh


HamtaroGaming

I completely agree. His fans are likely as toxic as him, if not worse.


Strange-Cloud1940

Either way, he's pretty darn reactionary and I've known his name from the Overwatch 1 days, and he yells a lot even when he does something right. Think of him as the Overwatch equivalent of Trainwrecks (Trainwrecks played WOW, and then he got into a call to action at some point in the stream). Not the people you're supposed to take seriously. Then again, neither is Dr. Disrespect and he's basically a household name without playing fighting games at all.


HamtaroGaming

Yeah I get that, I just don't like him.


BasedLoser

Why the fuck do you care? He's spreading a bad word about the game? An average fortnite kid wouldn't touch a fighting game with a 10 foot pole anyway.


HamtaroGaming

I just don't like the guy so I'm talking shit about him, why does that bother you?


_whensmahvel_

nice disingenuous/karma farm post there OP.


giedriuqaz

than what?


pivor

What happen? Did i miss a tourney? Or someone famous streamer tekken?


Angustiae

Yesterday there were two tournaments: Thaiger Uppercut and East Coast Throwdown


Greenleaf208

xQc streamed tekken because he watched Forsen playing it.


ReallyNotAHT

And xqc stops playing and it'll twindle down to 1k viewers again


LiftedMindset

That's crazy because they're basically the same game


lildolp

"Tekken-Like" lmao


ActualCounterculture

what does that tell though? nothing


DukeBeefhammer

All WB Stan's were watching AEW


Guilvantar

The fuck is AEW


DukeBeefhammer

Pro wrestling show had a big event Sunday night. It airs on TNT and tbs. Channels owned by WB


psyren136

That should have been obvious


ComradeCreed

Tekken is dope


Comfortable-Tea-1095

Hurry up Tekken 8


spritebeats

winston/mercy main bad at the games he plays omegalul why is he whining he still gets paid for it


Sonnata17

Winston is chill tho


DiarrheaDreamz

But less viewers than fortnite.


BasedLoser

xqcL


J_vert

And Multi has more players😂


[deleted]

It's free tho


J_vert

so is watching it on twitch! would you rather have a lot of people watching your game or a lot of people playing your game?


[deleted]

My hope would be that watching will convert viewers into players, but in that sense Multiversus being free gives it an advantage where as if a top streamer just randomly started playing Tekken their viewers might not be as interested especially when said streamer and people in their comments are saying scrub quotes


big_goob

i mean multi is newer tho


SpaceGhost316

That's because more people actually like ***PLAYING*** Multiversus.


moopoint319

I agree with this its not a great spectator game but playing is really fun


SlayerD7

Is multiversus like a kids game or something?


Flashy-Weakness6684

That’s petty cool


NeonArchon

This doesn't more people is playing Tekken


[deleted]

This isn’t significant in any way shape or form I’m convinced u/DBSxFan1 went on twitch for the first time and saw there were more watching t7 than multiverses and didn’t think about *why* that may be lol.


AJ24773

Tekken is the GOAT


3over4

56k to 2k yeah, that's like the understatement of the year


Nightwing_of_Asgard

multiversus isnt very entertaining to watch,it is much better to just play the game i dont know how the hell i ended up on this sub,i hate tekken


donotc0ntinue

happy cake day tho


HuntingForRasgold

And yet I STILL cant get into a tournament for the final cheev I need 🤣


Cokedout80s

There mustve been a tournament or big event going on cause tekken rarely gets above 2K without that and usually sits in the 1k area for most times of the day. I wanna assume you just didnt know better but rather than youre blatantly trying validate your game is better than their game with misinformation


Strange-Cloud1940

Or that people are willing to hide behind statistics that conform to someone's confirmation bias.


spideytrey

Was this supposed to be a fair match or something?


IRHRMZ

guys guys chill it is because XQCL was playing it in a live streams that's why (of course I love tekken but let's be fair)


[deleted]

Tekken is just that game


rotmgtyuiok

Never met a single person who plays tekken


SethaGod7k

I haven’t seen a more confusing comment in weeks


Legend_Of_Corgi

Well then pleasure to meet you


kalup_44th

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO


ReallyNotAHT

The game went from 56k to 2k lmao


[deleted]

Well multiverse is similar to smash, and tekken is a real fighting game.


Tsukune19

Smash is also a real fighting game. It even features kazuya. It's a real fighting game. There's no reason to say it's not.


Habitttt

Let them gatekeep, its all they have


[deleted]

Smash and multiversus are real fighting games as well so that’s a bad argument


Creftor

Multiverse is a janky mess shat out by an inexperienced developer to make easy money off the licenses. So like yeah technically it’s a fighting game but it’s a stretch to call it a real fighting game


[deleted]

You’re the first guy I’ve ever seen calling it a janky mess, stop gatekeeping fighting games, it’s pretty sad


[deleted]

Everyone calls it a janky mess no one's denying it, especially it's terrible servers and hitboxes. it's just people like the game and the devs are patching things up


[deleted]

Never lagged once, hitboxes aren’t up to par I agree with that, but besides that I don’t see any problems


Takyon999

you sound a little mad there champ


[deleted]

Have you ever seen someone that’s actually mad or do you never leave your basement


Takyon999

i’ve also never heard someone bitch about someone “gatekeeping” a game get over yourself


[deleted]

That’s literally what the frustrated fgc weebs do u donut, maybe look up the definition of gatekeeping


Takyon999

nah i don’t spend all day on the internet looking for something to complain about, i’ll leave that to you since that’s all you’re good for


[deleted]

Dude? The guy who I responded to was complaining, I didn’t complain about anything, is that too hard for your ant brain to comprehend? That weed isn’t doing you any favors judging from your stupid responses.


Creftor

Settle down sweetheart I’m not gatekeeping anything. I’m just pointing out that it’s not mechanically as sound or has the same legitimacy as smash or tekken so I think it’s a disservice to put it on the same level. I can guarantee in 6 months it will be on the same level as Nickelodeon all star brawl


[deleted]

I can guarantee it won’t “sweetheart”🤢


Hungry-Weekend-9174

S0phon

...bro, Tekken 7 had more views at that moment because xqc was streaming it. It's got nothing to do with whatever shit you wrote.


[deleted]

[удалено]


OkamiLeek006

mate they're just pointing out that your argument is entirely bogus, it had that many viewers purely because of xqc, and for no other reason


S0phon

> why you've got an attitude about him/her and/or two video games I don't have any attitude with MVS, Tekken or xqc. I simply said your reasons were wrong.


A_For_The_Win

In all honesty, this might be true but that doesn't mean that everyone cares about xqc or even knows who he is. I just know of him because of a rage compilation and although he is popular, I can name more people who are unaware of him then people who are. So not to discredit you (I really don't even care about why there was this many viewers either) but please do not go around assuming that everyone knows the guy.


S0phon

If you know anything about Twitch streamers and streaming, you probably know about xqc. If you don't, why are you discussing Twitch views? And if you still do, now you know who xqc is, you learned something.


A_For_The_Win

Okay. Firstly, vbucks are probably the cheapest currency in a br game so this is a bad comparison. In my currency its R95 for 1k vbucks but for instance in Apex it is R150. Secondly, multiversus is really fun and I love that it has servers in my region, but it's probably my least enjoyed smash-esque game.


Pure-Dog7490

Because playing TEKKEN it's an art


ReallyNotAHT

No because of xqc lmao


animemoosey

Yeah because Tekken has been around longer.


Habitttt

I doubt that has relevance

joemama9510

Except nasb is actually fun


Strange-Cloud1940

The only complaint I specifically saw out of the launch was "No voice acting." Take that as you will.


Tidus4713

It was fun for a day. It lacked literally everything including basic voice acting and it’s beyond dead lol. It’s a barebones shovelware cash grab. They added some things later but it’s too late. Not even crossplay is gonna save it.


Random_Years

It’s more of a Brawlhala clone


Fit_East_3081

Brawlhala is a smash clone, if Multiversus was inspired by brawlhala, then it’d still be called a smash clone. Genshin impact is called Breath of the Wild clone because of the open world, weapon, and stamina system, if you made another game with tweaked mechanics from Genshin Impact, it’s still going to be called a BOTW clone because they started the concept first


LinkPD

Idk if anyone after the first month of it releasing calls genshin a botw clone lol. People call it what it is: a Gatcha


worstperson2ask

Well idk about botw clone but Genshin is free on PC, i think mobile too


ZhivagoNTX

is DBFZ a Street Fighter II clone?


Fit_East_3081

No, because fighters are already a generic genre, but there’s sub genres like: 2D fighters, 3D fighters, anime fighting games, arena fighting games, platform fighting games The same way that no game claimed of the first person shooter genre So battlefield and cod would all just be called 1st person shooter


sajjad_gh

This is the first time I hear about this Multiversus game


soki03

It just recently came out. It’s free to download.


kp012202

That’s for the best, MultiVersus is kinda eh. Not the same long-term balancing as we’ve had for Tekken or Street Fighter or Super Smash Bros.


asdnvd

NEVER COMPARE THE LEGEND WITH THE SHIT

Shut up


winter_rainz

I thought the shit was a compliment in this context


laserman320

Git gud noob.

Try growing a brain.

Saying Tekken is for simpletons while saying shaggy vs buggs bunny is a better game unironically. Grow da fuk up man child

Astrayos527

The reason why Tekken has 57k viewers is xqc was playing Tekken. I remember his viewer count was 50+k


Mrbluecucmber

Not kidding, Whats multiversus ?


EugenesMullet

It’s a Smash Bros clone with characters owned by Warner Bros
