"Namco did justice for the character." Well actually... Namco gave Negan a fleshed out fighting style, something he didn't have in TWD. Negan's moveset is everything I'd hoped a Tekken character fighting with a bat would be (and more). So brutal. Bamco continues to "show off" by taking literally any character, even a real actor from a TV series, and put him in TEKKEN - with a playstyle that offers something unique to the actual game (to boot). Negan isn't just DLC to be DLC... He adds to the game. Imagine that. Nailing Jeffrey Dean Morgan's likeness & voice in the game? Icing on the cake.

I was a fan of TWD S1-S6... but Negan's entrance to the series is when I stopped watching because the writing became so lazy and lame. Ironic that a character I hated would end up being in TEKKEN. Even more ironic? I ended up liking Negan. Namco helped me cope with the hatred I had for Negan. I now respect the "Negan swag". The dude actually knows Karate, and knows how to use a baseball bat. I get it now. Negan is such a good fighter, part of the reason he rose to power as the leader of the Saviors! (canon) lol. By far, Negan is the most chatty TEKKEN character. His hilarious battle cries and quotes are comedy gold. Hearin' "SHIT" and "DAMN" while being combo'd is incredibly entertaining shit. Finally, the Negan episode of TWD S10 was a good watch and fleshed his character out! Negan was a gamer before the events of TWD? You know he was a TEKKEN player.
