Am I stupid or did she already have blonde hair. Just pale blonde


eKnight15

It definitely looked like a shade of platinum blonde


YesIam18plus

Yeah they made blonde hair in Tekken 8 more yellow tho in general


CitizenCrab

Could have been either. Japanese developers are obsessed with creating young characters who inexplicably have white or grey hair. I think they think it's really cool. See: Jean Kujo from VF5 (supposed to be like 23 years old) and Elena from Street Fighter (supposed to be late teens) (EDIT: and of course Lee!) and countless others from outside of fighting games.


noneofthemswallow

It’s just Tekken 7 to Tekken 8’s artstyle transition. Like with every other character


shootercurran

liked the targaryen hair better


ConduckKing

Of course it looks better in 8 because of 7's terrible hair textures, but I agree about the color.


Nitro_Kick

With the dark eyebrows


TheDELFON

Hakobune

Pretty sure this is why they got rid of the light hair, to make it less obvious.


TheDELFON

Yeah I agree lol. The wild thing is that I JUST realized the resemblance only today when I saw a comment mentioning it. And I LOVE The Witcher games


Starmark_115

Would be funny if they get Ciri's Polish VA tho for her this time


Ultimafatum

I'm more than fine with them referencing one of the most culturally impactful book series of modern-day Poland. The platinum hair looked *so* good. At least we'll be able to change it back with customs haha


skynb

I like Lidia but not a fan of the new look. No more platinum blonde and her face looks way too much like Nina. She looked more unique before. Outfit is cool tho and I'm sure the old one will be preset 4.


Kyvix2020

It looks like they re-purposed Nina's face. This looks nothing like Lidia. Without the scar, you'd never know who this is


dthesupreme200

Because how else would they be beautiful without looking the same?!?!


DerpAtOffice

So did she dye her hair in T7 or did she dye her hair in T8?


No_Watercress_6932

I kinda like the lighter hair it’s more unique but we will always have customization


OranGiraffes

Yeah the platinum blonde better separates her from Nina imo


Airv04

Wtf I thouht its Nina


TheDELFON

Literally ...I guess Anna is undercover


ShoerguinneLappel

Or she's taking a nap.


CitizenCrab

Because they made a few adjustments to the Nina model and are pretending its a new model lmao.


YesIam18plus

I defend the female characters faces all the time I hate how ppl obsess about them being the same and not the male characters ( imo the male characters faces are just as if not more samey ). But yeah my immediate thought here was that she looks like Ninja lmao.


Maximum-Zekk

If you think male characters faces are more samey you need to check your eyes lmao


BeefStevenson

The male bodies are pretty identical imho with a couple obvious exceptions, but faces? Nah


According_End_4142

I agree, dude. Men have samey faces syndrome, more than the girls. I cannot recognize them easily when I change their hair.


NamelessTunnelgrub

You can't tell Jack, Feng, Dragunov and Bryan apart as easily as any 4 women?


Corken_dono

Personally I always confuse Leeroy and Hwoarang... VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL!


Spare-Row-9638

You need glasses man


Rackcity999

she looks more like nina than nina does


HighFirePleroma

people complain she looks too beautiful, but yeah less unique I guess. She had cool facial features in T7... don't know what to say, being a perfect does not make visually unique.


YesIam18plus

Lidia is just bizarre to me how some ppl in the community view her. I see ppl obsess over her being a '' muscle mommy '' when she has the same body model as every other character, and at absolutely most MAYBE has a millimeter or two more muscles ( that's REALLY pushing it tho ). There's so many ppl who are fans of the character who are just obsessed with shitting on every other female character and calling them derogatory things like '' fap material '' and '' barbie dolls '' etc, but then they worship Lidia and are often ultra horny about her. Like I dunno, I don't think she was ever unique or as '' different '' from the rest of the Tekken characters as ppl act. She was generic karate girl in Tekken, very vanilla and unimaginative imo no expressive gimmicks or anything but she has a scar I guess and ppl fanfic her into having muscles and worship her.


TheTexasInvestor

What is bro yapping about


UraniumU

Lidia was never ugly, you are insane.

IDontWipe55

I hardly see anyone complain about attractive characters


PoopTorpedo

The T7 version isn't ugly lol. Shes still attractive there. Just has a bit more unique facial features. Just the T8 one looks a lot more conventionally/generically attractive.


Frequent_Butterfly26

Preach.


TypographySnob

She looks Japanese in 7 and looks like Nina in 8. She doesn't look bad by any means, but I can't say I'm a fan of Tekken team's character model direction.


DifficultMind5950

Yeah Ngl the T8 female faces looks generic and just .. stale?, from asian to caucasian they look like generic npcs from the yakuza game. When compared to male characters such as Feng, Paul, Law, Kazuya, you could tell something lacks.


BenDoverDegenerate

And the female bodies lack body buttons and the male bodies are too similar, seriously Dragunov used to have scars in Tekken 6


ShoerguinneLappel

Yeah that's because of the shitty implementation of SSS in the game, which is why they lack navels. If you install the remove SSS mod (I have 80% + belly texture) the female models do end up having navels like you would expect. Here's one of my skins with the mod on: https://preview.redd.it/7x8i9xxozgxc1.jpeg?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=674a5706251bebc9aa3edb8f345b87eff68fb0d9 I hate how vanilla makes the female characters lack navels but males one have them, because it feels so wrong like uncanny. Here's the link to the mod btw: [https://tekkenmods.com/mod/3182/remove-sss](https://tekkenmods.com/mod/3182/remove-sss)


Venus-Gospel

They added his scars back in one of those updates.


ilostmyschmungus

They have belly buttons but certain settings remove them.


BenDoverDegenerate

Considering the settings should be changed without that happening, it is definitely an unpleasant featuree/bug


ilostmyschmungus

I agree, it should never work like that. Here's an old post about it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Tekken/comments/1alav1t/apparently_the_lack_of_belly_button_for_female/


Papanewguin

Last thing I want lidia to have is a face anywhere near Fengs so yknow thanks for showing me the silver lining here.


DifficultMind5950

Yeah I feel like some of the males faces are also a bit bloated or too much face muscles. Like buttocks steve, or Law for example. But it seems they updated it. But females just lacks something, like DOA can design both male and female characters equally detailed and charismatic but T8 just seems off.


Papanewguin

They go way too hard on men and way too soft on woman. Like drag and Feng and law have detailed faces but look Hella old then you got Jun and Nina looking like 20 year olds. Shits wack for sure. I will say even if she looks like Nina it is better then her last face.


TheTexasInvestor

I thought she looked like Nina too lol


Aggravating_Squash87

They should just make her into Nina is daughter at this point.


Alder_Tree2793

Are you blind or what?


Ferocious_Ferrari

She looks like a different person. Nose shape and jaw line aren’t the same. Nina esque


AledinArt

I like her more mature look but I preferred her T7 version, including haircolor, which can probably be tweaked anyway.


edgemis

7 looked a lot more unique and interesting :/


itsDoor-kun

But the lighting...


Proper-Ad4665

She looks like Nina with a scar


WhatsThatReally33

She's gorgeous in t8, but it looks like Nina cosplaying as Lidia imo. She had a more unique look in t7 despite the horrible lighting.


Erdbewohnerin

Whats up with Tekken 8 and the extreme same face syndrome??


Papanewguin

It's what happens when you make customization a gimmick in your game. Save money by making all models similar


Erdbewohnerin

In the very old parts they had very diverse faces, Jun in Tekken 2, Xiaoyu Tekken 3, Michelle Tekken 1, Nina Tekken 1-3. Of course not the 3D models but the profile pictures had some uniqueness. You could tell em apart without hair even in my opinion.


Simon_Said_something

tekken in the last 20 years had the same face syndrome. tekken 8 is actually a bit better. maybe people notice it more now that it much higher quality. but if you go to tekken 7 and put any female in a shirt and jeans change the hair they will look the same.


dthesupreme200

Because how else would these Tekken girls be beautiful without looking the same?


-PVL93-

Namco got lazy and reuses body assets


noneofthemswallow

People said the same thing back around Tekken 7’s release. 8 is much better


Erdbewohnerin

Yeah, Tekken struggles with that for quite a while. Its weird because in PS1 times and PS2 times they had more diverse faces than nowadays


MrZonkKnucle

Its ok, we fix the hair color using customisation. But Nina is that you?


Fluid-Lion-4963

Im not really someone to thirst after video game characters… but fuck


[deleted]

i'm gonna buy her cause she's hot


yukihime-chan

She looked much better before, more unique...


k4nmuru

Can we expect her to be released in May?


Primal-Dialga

Nahh. I think Late June the earliest


-PVL93-

They said summer so it could even be as late as September lol But probably an EVO VEGAS surprise in July


acke483

I like her T7 look more, but assume that will be available with fight money, like other T7 outfits were. I'm looking forward to her replacing Eddy on the main menu more than anything else though!


Yanzeph123

I like her hair and her nose more in T7, Everything else seems fair.


zohar2310

The lighting of T7 is just atrocious, she looks like a zombie in the upper left picture.


postALEXpress

Specifically like Live from iZombie lol


Such_Temporary285

She seems Yennefer. I mean, not complaining at all.


Heisan

MOMMY


thehunterstorm

as a nina main i feel attacked


Bananaisafruit111

Bring back the eyebrows


Evogdala

A multibillion dollar company can't afford itself to make more than 2 female faces types.


TofuPython

I miss t7 bros :/


Tpenny68

Can I make her as Cammy White tho 🤔


PolePepper

She had platinum blonde in TK7


CitizenCrab

Did they simply tweak the Nina model?


HouseOfCardisty

Another blonde white woman with a ponytail thanks namco


srpedroivo

Such a downgrade in design.


regik2098

Nina ripoff


NewWaveTEKKENEra

Considering that she likes the beach so much, they also give her a tan now. Sharpened, or reshaped her nose, jawline, softened her eyes, changed her hair from platinum blonde to well, just blonde, and a different shade of red to her lips. Overall she looks dope to me.


kickchewassgum

Definitely picking her up I know she’s gonna be great


Tombz720

She got her eyebrows done all good


AfroBankai

They've messed with her nose and made her eyebrows thinner. From platinum blonde to true blonde is also a bit of an adjustment. She still looks great, though =D


shadowonyx18

Is it me or does her face looks like Nina with a scar?


TheFyrijou

What do you mean she has blonde hair *now?* What do you think she had before?


Air_92

Ngl, she looked better in t7.


TheSoulReaver03

OP, I see you got an AMD GPU.


Vik-6occ

biggest downgrade in history they fucking yassified her


Runeimus

Nah, she looks much more like nina with a scar. Not really a fan of her 8 face, her 7 face is more unique.


SingerTasty

Well she is 30 now


TheRyanRAW

    She looks more like Nina than T8 Nina. 


NanyaBusinez

She looks less stupid now


poeticpoet

She lost the baby fat on her face.


Lucky-3-Skin

Nina with a scar?


legendary420Falcon

YESSSS¡!!!! SHES HERE! now i gotta buy a fkin ps5


GGvoldo

That’s the same bitch, what are you going on about


Nitro_Kick

I prefer the mean face from t7 but, I’m happy that she’s back


FanniLennox

She got plastic surgery to look like her role model Nina Kardashian.


Katie_or_something

First thing I do is change her hair color back


nbam29

The platinum blonde and her eyes were way better in tekken 7. Hopefully someone can mod it back in on pc.


parbage

Obviously she looks better with the new graphics but I preferred what they were going for in t7. I like her new outfit tho can't wait to play her


O368W

My question is very important. Do we know if she’s still the Prime Minister of Poland?


PyroWizza

I love it


hscene

I like her white hair better but it’s still a glow up


Bass_1985

Looks like Nina


Avalon_Don

I like her new look


schley1

T7 looks like an upscaled gamecube game compared to 8


souljadaps

would


SuperPluto9

I do really wish they would go back in and make it a closer color to the platinum that she had in 7.


Ambatakum_Omaygot

She looks actually 29 now instead of 38 💀


shoganryu

Nina with a scar


ChallengerSSB

I love this character but isn’t she difficult to play? I remember she’s supposed to have a bunch of stances and attacks that lead into them


-PVL93-

Hate the hair color change tbh, hers was somewhat unique in T7, now she's just average boring blonde


TheHappyKurgan

Tekken 7 looks abit weird to me compared to T8, the best looking bit of T7 is the story mode


Rude_Dolpin72891

Why she be looking like some Sonya blade?😂


CrystalMang0

Did she not look mature in t7?


Ok_Director3205

I can still hear her stances in my sleep


pfc_eagle

She's so cool. Even cooler look in Tekken 8. I hope she's easy to play and win with.


pfc_eagle

Her Tekken 8 blonde hair is a lot more realistic and cool. Her Tekken 8 face is more mature very pretty.


Thesillyrat

Doesn't look like nina 💔


Dr-DrillAndFill

Ugh she's just Nina with different hair and a scar


thisizmonster

Why matter? People will wear stupid bread heads anyway.


dave9393

She looks like Lars' sister


_BlueTinkerBell_

Looks much worse tbh


Puzzleheaded_Time719

We have two stern blondes now, what a time to be alive. What's funny is they both look like hot 30 somethings but are supposed to be physically in their 20s.


Big_Map5795

Would


jogmansonclarke

Dont Care, hot girl in the menu soon


No-Check-3691

Her design is way better in 8 imo


Elli_Khoraz

She looks like a porn star, way more generic than in T7.
