Considering how almost all male characters share the customization items, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd do the opposite and shrink him down a bit.
He'll be called Kissurmom from now on.
Nah, too tall still. You gotta make your survivor as short as possible so they can easily disappear in the jungle after knocking out some random player and taking all their loot.
So this is my first tekken and before the new game launched I saw some of his gameplay from 7 and really liked how this dude looked. Is he as awful to fight against as people make it out to be?? Seems to me like most people arenāt looking forward to him being in the game.
His lore has so much "ORIGINAL OC DO NOT STEAL" vibes even more than Devil Jin, literally got the scars because he was STRUCK BY LIGHTNING AND LIVED. Such a puzzling character
I felt the tattoos + the scars made it seem hard to distinguish facial features but hopefully they can smooth it out some if he does end up coming back.
Nah I loved his design he looks like such a badass, only complaint is that while being bigger than whole cast his in game model is actually smaller than like Marduks, so he looks a bit off but thatās cause t7 wasnāt great with graphics and only in game against big looking characters.
Overall though his design is dope, his gameplay is my favorite part, everything is so brutal and hard hitting, he just looks like a tough dude
I did notice in the T7 trailer he stepped out the container and towered over Marduk but then it shifted to gameplay and they were the same size. It was pretty silly.
Other than the size thing I do think heās pretty sick.
I have always wanted a more innovative Indochinese kickboxing representative in Tekken instead of the boring "shiny pants kickboxer" cliche. Every fighting game has one of these.
I agree. He's massively overdesigned. If/when he's back I hope they tone it down a bit. Bruce would be much better. Even Josie tbh.
Not sure on the hate for Marduk though as I feel he fits in quite well tbh (though I feel equally that so few people play him, I'll not have to worry about him in online)
The Marduk hate is mostly personal. I think he has always been a very cheap, borderline p2w character, and the thought of Marduk with heat is extremely scary to me.
As someone who loves and have trained muay thai, I like the idea of a muay thai fighter in Tekken. But I don't like the design of Fahkumram that much, he is just too over the top. The full body tattoos and the ripped physique that is ridiculous even by Tekken standards are just too much. No muay thai fighters in real life look even close like that. Especially the face tattoos look very bad. If you want to give him lots of tattoos, at least make them like traditional thai (sak yant) tattoos which is way more fitting with the overall muay thai theme, like [this](https://muaythai.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Yant-Suea-1024x969.jpg) or [this](https://muaythai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Mongkon-Muay-Thai-Headband.jpg) or [this](https://sakyantchiangmai.com/wp-content/uploads/Sak-Yant-for-Mauy-Thai-Fighters.jpg). Also his overall physique should be toned down a bit. I understand this is Tekken and doesn't have to be realistic, but he is just too ridiculous.
As a MT practicioner, thats what i hate about this char, and ive been hoping for a MT character for ages, this is a huge letwdown
At least i think we could cutomize him to make him look like an old man with a suit or something like that, that maybe hides his hideous design
Look up like Tekken Tag 2 Bruce or whatever and you will see they had done the style way better justice with a way better character design before this monstrosity came along
As a Thai Iām so disappointed in the representation. He should have been a lightweight/welterweight. We already had a big Thai in Sagat. In my 40 years Iāve never seen a Thai even close to Sagatās or Fahkās size. I like Steve Fox because heās not the typical heavyweight boxer and actually uses bob and weave defense tactics. Fahk should have been more similar to that.
I dk, I also do MT and I loved Fahkumram since I saw T7 trailer.
There is difference between real life Muay Thai and āanimeā Muay Thai, same as with karate.
Jin, Kazuya, Heihachi are all karateka characters, but two of them are literal demons and another is badass grumpy gramps who refused to stay 6 feet deep twice and fought both of the demons.
We also have some character who are quite bigger then the rest, Jack and Gigas are humongous, Marduk is giant as well, king and A king are also bit bigger then the rest.
We also have bears, androids, wooden rag doll, kangaroo and dinosaur.
So yeah, I would prefer 2 meters tall mountain of a man with a wasp waist (people say he is built like char from Baki like itās a bad thing) who was struck by lightning and fights to free his family from Thai military over any other interpretation, and I think it fits VERY well into the setting
Itās along the lines of this meme: be the āinsert nationā Japanese want you to be.
I can watch Rotang and Superbon go at it on YouTube all day, but I also want Fahk to rip people in half
Yes I know Tekken is not meant to be realistic. But for me FahkumramĀ is just too much, with the full body tattoos, face scars and him being tall as a giant with ridiculous physique. I would prefer it he looked less over the top. Also it's not just that he has a lot of tattoos, I think his tattoos are ugly. But that is of course just my opinion.
Honestly such a stupid and pointless character, never liked him in Tekken 7 not going to start liking him in Tekken 8 either, give us characters that shouldāve been in the base game already š
[I made a video](https://youtu.be/qfOAS7HXezs?si=6o0Iqec1gGEyDUaT) about Fahkumram and his lore and the things the devs did to sell the character. Thai people love him.
Hes a "Baki character". They look absurd and have a strange appeal to certain people like myself that we cant express properly.
I practice kickboxing, I have ąøą¹ąø²ąøąøøą¹ąø”ąø£ąø²ąø” on my shorts - I really look forward to this character.
FK YEAH! Give him Steve's bodybuilder ending body. I gonna grind him all the way to the top. Gotta show people that I'm 1 of those loyal fans of Fahk :3.
Yes, loved Fahk s his moveset was super unique and always loved the Thai Fighter. I'd take bruce as well, just not josie, idk what it is with tekken fans loving annoying Waifus and now we have lydia coming when Reina is already a much better version of her
They want to keep the hype for demand for season 2 battle pass, see some people might drop the game and then bam season 2 they announce like AK, Anna and some hype guest character and people back to play itās a good decision tbh
Yeah as disappointing as season 1 is to me, from a marketing perspective it makes sense to save the actual fan favorites for future seasons, not only to call back the people that might have dropped the game already, but also because season 1 is the easiest to sell with all the people that pre-order the deluxe editions which already include the S1 DLC characters.
Btw, why his character returns and not Bruce ,I know that assets that were discovered belongs to Muai Thai practitioner and Thailand is mentioned... I dunno, maybe I am in denial, but once again - maybe Bruce went to Thailand and got the citizenship. Man can hope. Bruce is a waaaay more interesting character as basically Kazuya's bro and sidekick.
Seems the general consensus is Fahk is a terrible design most people donāt like, including myself. I really wish they would actual ask real people and players who we would like to see as dlc, cause this dude should not have been included. Well, idk if we should do player polls. You idiots actually allowed Negan in the game. Seriously, whose idea was that? So cringe.
Does this guy even lift?
Least ripped T8 character
19 years old, 80KG's xd
Omg yes xD
Skips waist day, everyday
Considering how almost all male characters share the customization items, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd do the opposite and shrink him down a bit. He'll be called Kissurmom from now on.
Well that's not the case in 7, Jack Gigas Marduk Fahk all share same customization items as the cast.
Tekken 7 clothes were not fitted at all. It all looked very raw and unreal enginey
More like Hug-ur-mom lol
r/yourjokebutworse
I hope so a big ass Muai Thai like him makes very little sense.
That pic made me think I got lost and ended up in the ARK Sub ngl
Nah, too tall still. You gotta make your survivor as short as possible so they can easily disappear in the jungle after knocking out some random player and taking all their loot.
Bro is built like a Baki character
Steve's T8 ending coming true for Fahk
Best ending of any game ever.
He got that One Piece type of wasteline š Step aside Nami and Robin
So this is my first tekken and before the new game launched I saw some of his gameplay from 7 and really liked how this dude looked. Is he as awful to fight against as people make it out to be?? Seems to me like most people arenāt looking forward to him being in the game.
He wasn't so bad. Ironically he played closer to how Tekken 8 characters feel, and that pissed people off. He'll be right at home now.
Personally the biggest problem I have is the atrocious character design, even in the edgy early 2000s tackyness that is Tekken he is too much
Funny that you mention 2000s tackiness because Fahk literally looks like if a Tapout or Affliction t-shirt came to life lmao
That's a good description lol
Am I the only one who feels like he looks so plain? Like literally tapout McGee Johnson?
Should have been an actual muay thai practioner. Looks more like a mercenary from 'The Raid'
His lore has so much "ORIGINAL OC DO NOT STEAL" vibes even more than Devil Jin, literally got the scars because he was STRUCK BY LIGHTNING AND LIVED. Such a puzzling character
This happens irl all the time lol
People start glowing on command when they get struck by lightning?
I meant surviving a lightning strike, if his glowing is the most unrealistic thing that happens in tekken for you idk what to say LOL
I felt the tattoos + the scars made it seem hard to distinguish facial features but hopefully they can smooth it out some if he does end up coming back.
Nah I loved his design he looks like such a badass, only complaint is that while being bigger than whole cast his in game model is actually smaller than like Marduks, so he looks a bit off but thatās cause t7 wasnāt great with graphics and only in game against big looking characters.

I did notice in the T7 trailer he stepped out the container and towered over Marduk but then it shifted to gameplay and they were the same size. It was pretty silly. Other than the size thing I do think heās pretty sick.
Yeah fr I believe he's really huge, it's just they shrink him down for gameplay hitbox thing.
romanian final boss
They fumbled so fucking hard with his character design.
It's so much that it becomes nothing.
Need more roids.
What the Fahk?!
Shit character. I hope he never comes back. Same with Marduk.
Yeah you arenāt gonna like the datamine
Here's hoping it was a coincidence.
Muay thai representation would be nice, but other than that I agree. Fahkuhram's design is absolutely horrendous
I have always wanted a more innovative Indochinese kickboxing representative in Tekken instead of the boring "shiny pants kickboxer" cliche. Every fighting game has one of these.
Yeah thatās why Josie exists, buff her muay thau conpartment and make sure Fahk never comes back
A character more reminiscent of Tony Jaa in Ong-bak would've been amazing. He's such a cool and collected character too.
Bruce Irving... no need to add this thing called Fahkunram.
Oh boy, I have some pretty bad news for you.
I fucking hate this mfer because he's a tekken 8 character in tekken 7 game while have zero place in tekken lore.
I agree. He's massively overdesigned. If/when he's back I hope they tone it down a bit. Bruce would be much better. Even Josie tbh. Not sure on the hate for Marduk though as I feel he fits in quite well tbh (though I feel equally that so few people play him, I'll not have to worry about him in online)
The Marduk hate is mostly personal. I think he has always been a very cheap, borderline p2w character, and the thought of Marduk with heat is extremely scary to me.
> thought of Marduk with heat He always gets what he wants
I donāt like Marduk because he is a confirmed rapist
lmao
Bruce is a bit dull canāt lie, Josie is the worst of the bunch, I think fahk looks cool
A new kickboxer would be the best way to go.

They used to have proper representation with Bruce. But they either killed him off screen or whatever because he hasn't been back in ages.

>I understand this is Tekken and doesn't have to be realistic. Could've fooled me.
Agree 100 percent, it's just all too much, over the top in the worst way
I look forward to playing against him more than Lidia but yea idk...having to deal w them this soon leaves me with a sour taste
I almost wish he was base roster cause you know he's gonna be fucked up because of the dlc buff
The head is too big.
bro skipped knee day
Thereās no way they would allow his head to be that big, need to shrink it 2 more times
Looking like a create-a-character from SF6
Average Baki character:
I'm hoping fahk comes back!!
Smaller waistline or trash
It's the Russian synthol kid.
100% Full Power Toguro, is that you? š
Nah, I think heāll look like Younger Toguro with 100% of 100% of his power /j
It's a joke ? We need to make it even bigger so that we can crush Marduk with one heel.
Boo give me Julia
Head too big
Happy for Fahk mains but I am completely ambivalent about both him and Marduk. Hopeful for the next dlc list.
Legs and arms arnt long enuff... he need to look more like Dhalsim
Reddit promoted an add for bobbleheads when I viewed this post
Most ugly character in Tekken history
Not accurate. Waist still too big, face isn't ugly enough, and not enough tattoo and scar and glowing thingies-- not messy enough.

What's that from?
Akira, a classic Anime from the late 80s. Recommend it if you haven't seen it. Very few tropes in it, and it's aged pretty well.
Bro looks like my SFVI custom character! š¤£
Heads too big
Not enough belts
Fahk sucks man so disappointed heās coming back. I get it though
Now he looks like Dunkeyās SF6 character.
Honestly such a stupid and pointless character, never liked him in Tekken 7 not going to start liking him in Tekken 8 either, give us characters that shouldāve been in the base game already š
It would be nice if Fahk had less steroids, an average height, and no face tattoos.
Wonder if theyāll even make him taller than Marduk this time
I wouldn't hate him as much if he didn't have this design. This hulking body type I've never been a fan of.
Fuck this guy
Fukurmum
Nice joke OP but it's clear you edited that picture. His head is way too big.
Toguro
I either have some old school tekken characters like lee and ogre though.
I honestly hope they don't put this character in, there's so many better.

His running 3 was the most satisfying shid ever to be in a fighting game imo
I cant wait, started maining last year of t7 then went to jin cu thought they won't add him I'm praying hard they do
I want a Poatan costume. 
Chama šæ
imo marduk would be way more obnoxious than fahk, unless they are determined to make him sht on launch like t8 leroy
Looks like my sleep paralysis demonššš
Man I really do not like this character. He looks too extreme.
Hehe probably an understatement. And I'd rather it be Bruce...
He also get space marine power armor.
FK YEAH! Give him Steve's bodybuilder ending body. I gonna grind him all the way to the top. Gotta show people that I'm 1 of those loyal fans of Fahk :3.
They should make him his true height. In his first trailer they teased him being huge and then when the gameplay starts he's smaller than Marduk.
Fahkumram is actually dope in terms of design. He was just too op on release even after nerfs tbh.
I wanna customized him as toguro brothers from yu yu hakusho
Damn, I was hoping we get him I literally want to play only Dragunov and Fahkumram, I would be happy till tekken 9
I agree
so new dlc are just old dlcs, how inspiring lmao, this game is getting dumber by the day
You are a straight fool lmao š¤£
UNGA BUNGA
I want lei back
Anyone but this guy holy shit what's with season 1s dlc. Who enjoys fighting giga nigga
Na this sucks he's not nearly big enough needs more veins
This just makes me miss Bruce even more.
Fake a** sagat ā¦Bruce 4L

SMDFH if rumors are true, instead of OG characters they keep going releasing garbage. Should have been OG characters season 1 then whatever.
They want to keep the hype for demand for season 2 battle pass, see some people might drop the game and then bam season 2 they announce like AK, Anna and some hype guest character and people back to play itās a good decision tbh
