I love the sub stories in this one. I just helped some kid get his copy of Dragon Quest 3 that his father stole (??) and lifecoached a yankee band on how to be super huge posers. I only have like 4 hours logged but it is already my favorite Yakuza. It has social links. Social Links!

Someone needs to capture the dramatic zoom it does.

Finished Yakuza 3. well that was a bit underwhelming. since kiryu's still alive and well i'm assuming that knife was made out of rubber
edit: well the game didn't let that thing hang for too long


Barely 10% completion rating, what the gently caress
I loved how pretty much pointless that was :v:

wait, isn't that where the takoyaki place usually is? they turned it into some ice cream dairy death dump in the future? that's some loving bullshit, man.

also love how you can recognize street locations like your own actual home town. yakuza is the best.
And in 6 there is nothing there at all :(

The only thing I remember about Dead Souls is the characters and the lovely controls.
If the lovely controls got fixed would it be decent?

My least favorite series boss is actually that dance instructor from 5 who isn't much of a threat but just keeps spamming a low damage takedown move on you. So loving annoying. At least he has a completely unique moveset.

Japanese celeb gossip isn't exactly an interest of mine so I had to look up what happened behind the scenes and drat, Tanimura's actor got the short end of the stick there.
My quick Google said he maybed drugs and like... that's all :shrug:

I'm not sure why Jagi even thought he had the slightest chance of becoming the successor. Toki was a one in a million prodigy who could beat him even while dying of radiation poisoning and Raoh was a loving monster

Ishin used Unreal 4 (and was a test run to establish an Unreal pipeline/experience at the studio, they're worrying about Dragon Engine's age)

Gaiden uses Dragon Engine
It might be Unreal but it still handles like the old engines. Nearly every door being a loading screen, the street<->battle transition.

Poor Rikiya. Instantly forgotten.

If 5 had less bloat I'd rank it over 4 but it just keeeeps going. The plot is just as dumb but it takes even longer. I did like the cocaine cop's fighting style in 4, that was fun though.
The comments of 6 having a silly needlessly twisty story, that's pretty much all of the games outside of 1 and 2 :v: I view the stories of these games through a lens of 'manly' day-time soap opera.

a beat-em-up where you play ichiban would necessarily ditch most of his friends. outside of ichiban's reality distorting dragon quest vision, i kind of doubt the retired traffic cop, homeless nurse, office worker, or bartender are really that good at fighting.
Could a Waffle House exist in 8? You could get a pretty powerful person there.
