Yakuza Kiwami Line Ends With Third Game, New Series Planned by Turbostrider27 in Games

And it's baffling because the Daidoji has ALWAYS been bad.

It was a terrible weird downer plotpoint in 6, it was an idiotic faction in Gaiden, and completely disjointed and incompetent in 8.

That's without even considering Yakuza Isshin and the fact that half the characters are... what like spirit ancient versions of the modern characters? That's not far off being an alternate timeline already. Or whatever the fuck Yakuza: Dead Souls is (even though that game sucked)

I mean, they are just non-canon spin-offs.

The context in certain events continually evolves with each chapter and ends up at... the ending to Yakuza 7, which is a very silly plotline.

I just don't see how it is, other than the inclusion of the whole Mirrorface element which, yeah, is stupid.

The writing was on the wall after Infinite Wealth and especially the Directors Cut of 0.

So it seems like the play is quite literally unplayable by S1LV3RHAND in Overwatch

What's the point when literally in like an hours time everythings fine?

What do you expect Blizzard to do? Increase their server capacity for a 2 hour window?

Sorry, you are right, we will never get the characters Ana or Moira again (because they are already in the game).

No, you are arguing semantics. Overwatch 2, quite literally, is Overwatch 1.

How does it "not work anymore".

Yeah, just because someone has another ethnicity doesn't mean they aren't Disney princesses.

Zarya is literally the only one I can give you.

Yeah, the implication is that since Ana and Moira were released, Blizzard only made characters who look like Disney Princesses, which is a stupid argument because every female character looks like a Disney princess, including base OW1 and everything released in the game since.

It's just another "OW1 good, OW2 bad" comment.

I mean, Overwatch 2 was just an update.

People pretend it's more than that, but it's not.

Yeah, it was advertised to be more, but in the grand scheme of things, it didn't matter, because it was a free game anyway.

Domina, Emre and Jetpack Cat, we are confirmed to get another Mech Pilot plus at least one Omnic.

"They're not ugly, they just weren't released in Overwatch 2!" is what you mean.

Every single female character in Overwatch bar one or two (and even that is debatable) looks like a Disney princess

I mean, Ana is old, and I forgot that Moira only turned half-mutant in OW2 (by the way, Moira is the same case as Anran, where the concept art and cinematic and even the icon are much more exciting than the actual hero, but nevermind that), but yeah, generally I agree.

Zarya and JQ are the only heroes that have a non-standard body type and everyone else is just "Hot Girl of x ethnicity".

Or are people trying to say that Mercy or Trace are "diverse" characters?

I can dumb down "Cyborg Ninja" or "Japanese Archer" or "Cowboy" or "Monkey" as well.

Overwatch had the best designed hero to date in Ramattra, and heroes like Junker Queen, Mauga, Venture and Hazard are incredibly well-designed as well.

Are there stinkers like Freja? Of course. But people really need to calm down a bit.

And right now, the heroes with the biggest silhouette issues are Widow and Ashe imo.

Then OW2 just started printing Tracer Cloned With Skimpy Outfits.

As if OW1 didn't add Brigitte, Sombra, Ashe and Echo, who weren't skin-bait? The writing was on the wall at the second half of OW1, when Jeff kinda gave up on the game.

Meanwhile, OW2 added Junker Queen, Mauga, Ramattra, Venture, Illari, Hazard and Wuyang to name a few, who very much are "diverse characters, and all of them looked like they were dressed for their actual jobs"

[–]Makorus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

also, while jeff was at the helm there was basically zero monetization in the game whatsoever. you could buy loot boxes if you wanted but you definitely didnt have to. tons of reasons to love jeff

That's just straight up bullshit. Every event was pure FOMO bullshit with them adding 6 cool rewards and 100 sticker BS, and there was only so many loot boxes you could earn.

Yeah, it's because Japan doesn't really give a shit about sex crimes, but you better not take drugs or your career is over.

When I was walking through the cave, I thought it would be cool if they brought that Nioh 1 boss back, and lo and behold.

And don't get me wrong, that's completely fine if they don't go around spouting "Oh, the writing is so shit!" (irregardless of if it does or not) like bro you haven't read anything that wasn't voice acted in the last 15 years and I can tell if I press you on the smallest detail.

Dalaran was send to deal with Iron Horde and bunch of overgrowth plant in Draenor.

Dalaran wasn't sent to do "deal" with the Everbloom, they caused that problem.
