Tired

I did it! 40 years old this year. Since Tekken 8 dropped, my results have been rough. People said I was done, washed up, too old to compete. I didn’t even make it to TWT Finals for the first time. I was frustrated with the game and honestly, I still am in some ways. But thanks to the dev team’s hard work, it’s been getting better. I just couldn’t adapt. Last year was the worst of my Tekken career. I felt lost, unsure of what to do. But the answer turned out to be simple: just keep going. When you do, the right path starts to reveal itself. Be thankful for your teammates, friends, fellow players, and the fans who support you. Believe in them and in yourself. That’s how you stand back up. I hope I’ve shown that there’s still hope for gamers in their 40s. Let’s keep pushing, even when the path is tough. Thank you to everyone who celebrated with me! #drxwin #EVOJapan2025
