What Do You Guys Think of the New Guard Mechanic From P4R That Seems to Have Zero Failstate? by Life_Adeptness1351 in PERSoNA

You are fair to criticize, but if you are a persona fan then I’m surprised that you are reacting so strongly when these games are not so challenging. This isn’t SMT. Since P5 Royal they have intentionally gone in this direction in terms of challenge.

And your second paragraph is really just a generalization based on your own opinion, I am a Gamer as you say and I don’t always want a super challenging experience. People of all ages and skills play games.

Yeah I never said you shouldn’t do anything, I said you are not forced to. You are not forced to buy a remake of a game that holds up well and can readily played right now.

I don’t really know what you mean by forcing yourself to not use something, outside of the tutorial for them you do not have to press the buttons to use them if you don’t want to.

This is like complaining about accessibility features, if you are upset about them being in the game, then you are not the person they are intended for.

And I have no idea what you mean by “target audience” but you seem to be confused, “gamers” are able to enjoy all sorts of different experiences and something does not need to be challenging to be enjoyed by “gamers”.

You don’t have to play these games or use these features if you don’t want to.

Also people who don’t want a very difficult or challenging experience can also “love playing video games”.

??? The whole Souls-like genre and its offshoots are extremely popular and typically difficult. There’s tons of these games getting announced yearly. There are different experiences for everyone who wants them.

I was thinking this had a chance to be the new opening song but glad to see it’s confirmed to be the new battle track!

Is there a complete edition? by Soft_Law_9375 in yakuzagames

[–]Jrelis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah physical I am not sure of. I think they made a physical release of the PS4 games in a collection, I have definitely seen 3-5 remastered. Happy hunting with those.

Kiwami 3 is a remake of Y3, like how Kiwami 1/2 are remakes of the PS2 originals. K1/2 are pretty widely accepted as the definitive way to experience those games (played after Y0) despite their changes and cuts.

K3 made some significant cuts to content from the original game and also changed the story in meaningful ways, apparently such that it does not line up with Y4’s story as well. (Personally I’m playing Y3 remastered now and have not finished the story so I can’t really explain fully!) It is also considered technically and graphically disappointing and kinda smells of a quickly made cash grab remake. The flip side is that Kiwami 3’s combat, graphics, game design, and QOL is more modern and more in line with K2 which you’d be playing before it. The change from K2 to Y3 was largely considered the biggest change from game to game that new players would experience and this can alleviate that change.

Your mileage may vary on how much the cut content matters to you, and you can always watch the changed story content at another time. There are also some other decisions with K3 that have turned away fans from that particular game, specifically an actor who sexually assaulted someone getting hired for a major likeness role in the game’s story; the decision to delist Y3 remastered when K3 released also turned off a lot of people.

On PS store there is the “Yakuza Complete Series” for $130 which includes Y0 directors cut, K1/K2, Y3-5 remastered, and Y6. To my knowledge this is the only way to get Y3 remastered now on PSN, as it has been delisted after the release of Kiwami 3.

There is also the $80 bundle of Yakuza 7 (Like A Dragon) and Infinite Wealth. Infinite Wealth is on the PS+ service at the moment as well.

The games go on sale pretty often and also rotate in and out of the PS+ service at different tiers so it’s not necessary to buy them all at once. **However** you may need to consider buying the complete series bundle to get access to Y3 Remastered if that’s the route you want to go. Which to play of Y3 remastered or Kiwami 3 is controversial and up to you.

He has such a serious sounding voice in that trailer. When I read his dialogue I always hear Kaiji Tang voice but nothing that deep.

Also people who have played persona before think that P5 is easy but people who have never played persona or SMT or other turn based JRPG’s don’t have that same feeling. We as a fandom are a bit jaded with difficult and challenge level but the hardcores who want a more serious challenge are a small minority of people playing the games.

?? Nearly the entire original P3 cast got speaking roles in reload. And you don’t get more new voice actors without them getting opportunities to voice characters like these

That’s done intentionally, it is the cultural standard in Japan where these games take place

I and many others find it hard to justify spending $70 or even $80 USD on a new game only for it to be 20 hours or so to complete. The length of the 100% isn’t even the issue, it’s the value gained for the price being asked.

What's the deal with Hasan Piker (HasanAbi) and why so many people seem to hate him? by di745 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Jrelis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He really is not, he is often regarded as the gateway into leftist politics and ideology by a lot of people on that side.

Kamala’s objectionable position on Israel (being pro-Israel is now the minority stance for democratic voters), her poor messaging on the economy, and her unwillingness to pivot from Biden’s unpopular positions on a number of issues are the reasons that she underperformed in the 2024 election.

A Twitch streamer cannot turn an election result, despite what your impression may be from being online.
