The way the Yakuza: Like a Dragon PS5 upgrade is working is really dumb and probably means I won't actually take the upgrade and just stick with the PS4 version. I was gonna do an NG+ playthrough after the upgrade but apparently my PS4 version save won't work in the PS5 version, even though I was already playing on a PS5 and it's like, right there

I miss when a new superhero movie was exciting, even if you knew it was going to be terrible. Now it's like you can't throw a rock without hitting one and they've all ascended to this weird purgatory that is neither good nor bad, but in its bland neutrality demands ever more sacrifice from the people's whose culture begins and ends with disney owned IP.

but yeah spiderverse was good

I re-installed over the weekend FFXIV so I can play through the 5.X patch content in anticipation.

Instead of playing my 80 BLM, I played my 25 GLA and tanked The Thousand Maws of Toto-Rak and I forgot that ARR does not prevent you from engaging the boss early if someone in your party needs to watch the cutscene :sweatdrop:

And again, Stormblood has one of the best character moments of the whole game Y'shtola's severe burn on the dude in the Azim Steppe

I think about this moment every time I think about FFXIV. It vaults Y'Shtola to the top of FFXIV friendos stack rankings

Speaking of Yakuza, I finished Yakuza Kiwami 2. It is a really great game with quite an ending sequence. I do think the emphasis on weapons ultimately dampens the experience though.

It also helped me identify some issues for me about Like A Dragon. Specifically, I think Yokohama is just a little too big. I rarely use taxis in Sotenbori or Kamurocho, but used them all the time in Yokohama. The other issue I had is, while I liked the JRPG style combat in Like A Dragon, it ultimately made me dread random encounters on the street because the battle just took longer.

Regardless, both games are great. I immediately jumped into Yakuza 3, and I'm excited to see where this goes, especially because while the core gameplay of the series is there, it isn't remade the way all the other entries I've played thus far are.

The best Yakuza is the one with all the Japanese wrestlers in it

Based on the credits, Kiwami 2 has some affiliation with NJPW, but I couldn't tell you what it was.

Glad I don't care about association with wrestling though

I played a match of MahjongSoul last night, and the match went into South 1 because no one had the requisite points, and I was sitting in fourth place. I proceeded to get a Baiman and felt very accomplished. That's my gamer story from the weekend.

How do I get into beat-em-ups

I used to enjoy messing around with like the old TMNT and Streets of Rage games when I was a kid but I was always awful at them. Streets of Rage 4 looks really good but the last time I played a beat-em-up I felt like I didn't really "get" how they're supposed to work. They feel very stiff to me and I have a hard time avoiding damage so I just kinda get owned.

Is there a One Weird Trick?

I'm certified not good, but I felt like I was getting better by understanding the timings in streets of rage 4 instead of mashing the button on combos.
