I've played games for 30 years. I know what it means when somebody hangs around a game or series before the launch of a new game and says specifically similar things as you just said. It's similar to certain types of sports fans.

You won't admit it, not to anyone here and maybe you can't recognize it yourself. You WANT this game to flop. You want it to get bad reviews and sales. Why? because you will feel justified in your opinions.

As I implied, I don't expect for you to admit it. Quite frankly, I wouldn't care if you did. I just think it's sad when people do this and the series is better off if you moved on to other games/series.
Don't try to analyze me pal I've spent 3 years spamming rggs twitter about this game :lmaosubwaydog: I bought a Japanese copy in 2016 hoping to play it
I want this game to succeed so we can hopefully get an unadulterated localization of kenzan
You don't know me so don't pretend like ya do

Nope, in this way, I do. I've seen far too many people like you who repeat the same behavior. You aren't unique, pal.

Your profile is filled with hentai and anime, so who cares about your taste


tko. its all over, folks. hes down and out

Yeah and I bet you're "30" years of sitting around gaming really qualifies you to be a psychiatrist you're a troll that's all you are
Feel free to believe what you want but I don't see the icon next to your name that indicates you own the game

You don't have to be professionally licensed to state common denominators or when something is obvious. As a comedian once said, paraphrasing, "I'm not a pilot, but if I see a helicopter in a tree than the pilot messed up". It's a tongue in cheek comment, but there is a point behind it.

"I don't see the icon next to your name that indicates you own the game".

........Are you well? I never said, implied, or made any kind of remark that suggested that I did. I stated my belief, just like how you stated yours.

Well probably more fun than you are. Anyone who grew up on western games and played modern western AAA games can instantly see how janky Yakuza games are. Nothing really changed in years. Even the most modern Yakuza i have played, Yakuza: Like a Dragon feels like something straight from year 2000.
Like a dragon plays like crap because it is crap literally the worst game rgg has ever made :lmaosubwaydog: I can see why the creator and all of the senior developers left the studio these new devs suck and they're doing everything they can to ruin the franchise
Like a dragon is the second best game they have ever made only beaten by 0, and I have played all RGG games

I'm not fun because I called the gameplay janky? oh okay, lul

I like the yakuza games, I've played them all, including this (ps3 original), including kenzan (way back in 2008), including the psp games that never came to the west

But they are janky, and in many ways that's part of their charm. people wanting something more refined and modern might not like them
Who the ♥♥♥♥ plays Yakuza series for its combat? We play it for the story, combat can ♥♥♥♥ itself.

i have to say in Yakuza 0 i hated ALL the side quests, so annoying when it forces you to play them, i skipped them where possible.
Krezzing Feb 6, 2023 @ 2:47am 
it is dw its just game journalists sucking ♥♥♥♥ at games

Gotta agree that the last thing I'm concerned about in a Yakuza game is the combat. It's nice if it does well, but it won't make or break my decision to buy it. Japanese immersion, story, and characters are what we are here for.
So this game is effectively way of the samurai and yakuza?

yakuza games have this cut and paste lazy mentality about them all, they all feel heavily recycled and the combat is no exception, it's stuck in the past

boy oh boy I bet you're fun at parties, you do you really, you're entitled to your opinion and I get that, I just don't see any sense behind your take.

Well he's extreme about it, but not exactly wrong. Take Kamurocho. It's been so overused that it's absolutely crazy

the kamurocho bit I totally get, having played all of the localized rgg games I'm sick and tired of kamurocho, but the "copy and paste lazy mentality" bit is just stupid, do people realize that recycling assets its a healthy game development habit that should be normalized? reusing assets brings the production cost and time it takes to make a game by a LOT, and it makes it easier for us consumers to wait less and not pay absurd amounts of money for a game like for example FF7R :er_wave:

FOR ME THE SHREDDER the best ninja in the galaxy it will be much better because i kill all of my enemies very brutally and i have decades of experience fighting and killing enemies with nijitsu and ninja weapons. I will also upload some gameplay so evryoen can see how a true ninja master like me brutally kills the enemies. I recomend you to watch them then when it releases!

Your first mistake was expecting a game journalist to play well
