Yakuza 1

Alternate answer: Go out and buy a copy of Yakuza 3 to appreciate being Best Dad before beating up people that really deserve it.

You'll never play an older game if you start on a later one. Going from 5 to 3 was torture.

Start with 0, that way when you're done with it the 1 remake will be out, and then you just have to hope they're going to announce 2 and 3 remakes soon.

I mostly disagree. I started with 5 then went back to 2 and then 3 and I'm about to start 4. 5 is really an excellent showcase for the series, and if I'd started with 2 I doubt I'd have continued. But it sure was nice seeing how things loop forward going from 2 to 3.

Haven't played 4 yet, but 5 while really good and fun most of the time kinda turns into a slog because it's too freaking long

Like the the second character you play as you spend a bunch of time in the woods and it's way too long and boring and it should have been cut out imo

Saying HP as a resource is unique to metroidvanias is only as ridiculous as saying checkpoints and challenging combat are unique to dark souls :shrug:

2 was as far as I got, starting from 1. So I can agree with the sentiment, it pretty much totally put me off from playing the rest of the series

I got regular SUPERHOT, seems fine. It's the most innovative shooter I've played in years.

Human Fall Flat is a big hit with visiting family. Two player splitscreen, essentially zero death penalty, and plenty of opportunity to mess around with your friend. Plus it has a freeform structure that people can creatively sidestep challenges. Worth a look on sale

So, I'm having a bit of a problem here. I'm looking at Bloodborne + expansion and Dark Souls III+season pass right now. I pretty much only have time to play one of them, which one gives me the most bang for the buck?

Dark Souls 3 is much longer even if you go for a platinum trophy in Bloodborne. I prefer BB but they're both good.

BB is better, and lasts longer. So it kind of kicks DS3's rear end. DS3 is still good though.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


DS3 is also always available on PC and plays better there if you have a system that can run it.

Thanks everyone, I've played a few hours on both games but I never got very far into them before my daughter decided to play discjockey with my physical PS4 library. Decided that digital was the way to go after that.

I feel like those motherfuckers are trying to get me to buy The Order so they can put it on PS+ shortly after. I will remain resolute!
