Oh, sorry.

Well, for better or for worse, what you see is what you get with Kiryu. He’s a mental organism designed only for...never killing anyone.

It is absolutely ok :)

And yeah, I am fine with what I see. When I played through all of 0 last year I fell for him bigtime. I love him to bits. 2 is showing me more of it and I cannot help but get giddy watching him (and also why I had a break of a year in between Kiwami 1 and Kiwami 2). He has a nice code, he looks after others at his own expense and he is powerful and thoughtful. I love it :D

Plus I am one of the few people on this forum who enjoys the combat system so that might also be why I am so into the first ones.

I don't particularly enjoy turn based combat but a Yakuza game is a Yakuza game and 7 was still better than 90% of stuff that came out last year, or any year.

I do not enjoy turn based combat at all, which is one reason I am glad Yakuza 7 does not feature my friend Kiryu Kazama.

However at the same time I am a little sad, because it means Yakuza 6 will be my last Yakuza game.

Yakuza 7 spoilers it features Kiryu Kazama

Unless that was :thejoke:

Hi I'm the only person on these forums who played the ps4 version of civ6 apparenetly but it was my most played game of 2020 with 286 hours haha. Anyway, it plays very well imo. Theres a few high level features that are kinda cumbersome/missing in the ps4 version (like being able to type a wonder into a search bar and auto-locate it on the map, if you were for instance trying to see how close an opponent was to finishing it) but unless you're playing on the highest difficulty that sort of stuff wont matter. Obviously i imagine the pc version is probably the better way to go but for someone who loves civ but doesn't have a pc, the ps4 version is great! Go nuts

Thanks Civ console buddy!

OK I will not read that spoiler. Phew! Thank you for the warning.

And as to Ryuji, I remember briefly meeting him in 0 as a kid. However, the meeting between him and Kiryu in the bar was exceptionally tense. Kiryu being all cagey and knowing more than Ryuji but still keeping his cool was pretty fantastic.

I have a feeling the final showdown between them is going to be quite something! :D

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.
Cadence of Hyrule is an amazing game that was a real sleeper hit for me. You wouldn't think that a fusion of Crypt of the Necrodancer and Zelda gameplay would work, but they made something from it that manages to be almost more fun than either. Everything about this game is incredibly charming and the necrodancer-ized remixes of classic Zelda music sound great.

I know I'm not exactly the most prolific poster here, but I'm gonna answer anyway! I'm doing pretty good; yesterday I started a new DnD 5e campaign with a bunch of friends, a significant number of them new to tabletop gaming altogether, and it went well. One of them rolled a Wild Magic Sorcerer and on their first combat turn ever triggered a Wild Magic Surge and started spewing grease everywhere.

I’m trying to rearrange my room at the moment since it looks like I’ll be spending a lot more time here than I expected this year! I have an old tv on a small table for my older consoles but my tv for my PS4 is too big to go anywhere near so it’s just sitting in the middle of the room on top of a bookcase 🤔
I think I rearrange every few years out of boredom.

I think she might be my favorite 'official' Sony character ever. She's so loving charming and I love that she and Raven are effectively magical food lesbians together. Every time I think that Kat might not ever appear in another game I kinda get this weird pain in my heart.

Yeah I recently cut down on the huge bulky furniture I’ve had for basically my entire life and reorganized my bedroom, so now I can just lay in bed and play PS5 or Switch and watch movies on my giant Nanocell and honestly it’s really made me more productive. I’m way more inclined to keep my room tidy and organized, and I look forward to extend gaming sessions instead of feeling like a loser slumming it in a dorm room hunched over a faded 24’ monitor

johnny mnemonic feels like a weird and awesome product of a very specific moment in mid 90s culture where wacky rear end niche poo poo was everywhere and still managed to make enough money to justify its existence. i guess i feel the same way about tank girl and rumble in the bronx.

You should ask about joining them! Tabletop gaming is such a creatively-rewarding endeavour. Giving your friends the benefit of the doubt, they might have just thought you weren't interested and would probably be thrilled if you showed interest. I love getting new people into it.
