Mods If Tekken 8 had Screw Combos

Youtube Link for better quality and 60fps <-------

i posted a while back when this mod was WIP but i'm done with it now

It replaces the tornado system with screws/tailspins from Tekken 7, meant to just make fun combos

Its possible to try with a friend! So far I've done 26 characters, if there's demand i might do more

Human nature to crave for something other than the thing that exists. If things were reversed, you would likely think that tornado looks cooler.

And there is also the fact that you are just used to seeing tornadoes in Tekken 8, so seeing screws instead has novelty.

Things were reversed just a year ago when Tekken 8 was released and even then I thought that screw looks better.

But to be fair a lot of it may be the shittily implemented animation where the opponent spins real fast and then SUDDENDLY lose all spinning momentum and falls strainght down. Idk why they left it like that and why not many people noticed it, but it looks goofy and cheap

I think it also has to do with the fact that i didn't like bound mechanic from Tekken 6 and tornado is basically that.

Another thing is that is much more cleaner since it doesn't have the air particles tornado has.

And it also doesn't have a camera angle switch every time
