I'm more put off by the fact that you keep turning saving women from assault into dating opportunities.

Yeah, the heavy sax in the intro should have been a clear hint that this was very, very noir, with all the baggage that comes with that.

The noir tales of Yagami and his buddy Ryan Acosta the american ninja who hangs on walls.

Bummed to hear about the other 2 romance options. Deffo felt lame that the ones I had gotten so far had sexual assault as part of their story.

What’s the thread consensus on Yakuza Kiwami 2 on PC? Good port? I’ve only played Yak 0 but I liked it.

I found it lovely. Nighttime Sotenbori and Kamurocho at 60 FPS / 4k in the Dragon Engine are A+. Only problems were occasional FPS stutters during gameplay and rare gamepad mapping issues at launch. Played well for the most part.

is there any way i can increase the resolution on textures in kiwami 2 even further? they're pretty good but they get kind of blurry once you stand next to them. already on high settings.

I had to take a break from Kiwami 2 and just got back into working through the Cabaret Club storyline and Youda didn't betray Four Shine after all AND he got Majima back and everybody is happy and together again and it's so beautiful :unsmith:

Just beat Judgment. Can't believe the number of dudes who came at Kaito.:blush:




Also, really enjoyed the story. The game still allowed itself those zany moments, but for the most part it attempted to tell a (comparatively) grounded story and the whole thing was better for it. Great cast, to boot. Saori is too strong.

Was there some sort of Kiryu reference in the game somewhere? I did most of the side content but didn't see any mention of Yagami seeing Kiryu or anything

Maybe I just misread something about the dragon paint job being so expensive because Yagami's a fanboy of him?

How is that handled in Kenzan! And Ishin? Isn't the main characters of those games Kiryu as a famous swordsman? Do you actually use a sword or still just run around punching dudes?

It's been a long time since some goon did the translation LP of Kenzan but iirc in those games Kiryu is allowed to sword guys because he's playing historical figures who definitely killed a lot of dudes.

Either that or they let you sword guys in fights but usually they'll be just fine afterwards, no reason not to since you can do the same thing in the Yakuza games.

Hoshino is a good dude with a surprisingly solid character arc for a tertiary ally who seems genuine in his interest and respect but still does NOT AT ALL deserve best girl Saori

word of lesson learned the hard way replaying yakuza 4: kiryu hates eating worms. he really doesn't enjoy eating worms. if you picked worms from sunshine orphanage and are fighting extremely big loser ultimate r-slur prison guard boss, do not feed kiryu those worms. he will lose a good amount of health.

[ending spoilers] did I remember that scene wrong or does it end with Genda saying something about he can't judge someone for mixing work and love and then looking over at a picture of Matsugane. cause I think that's what happened and that owns

I'm back in Judgment after finishing some quest lines in FF14 and man, this Wareme Mahjong place rules. Fast games, huge payouts, fun times. I cleared the entire place and did a bunch of the girl's challenges in a couple hours and had a blast.

I am specifically referring to the insane length of the final chapter, especially after the game specifically says “yo this is it.”
