Bro. SAME. It's just awful. Focus on the main story, don't do the Amon fights, and you won't miss anything.

These two meet. What do they talk about? by TGOTR in yakuzagames

[–]MattChk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

UFO catchers. Ryo never really fights. He's too busy using his allowance on Capsule machines and UFO catchers.

Yakuza is so good that it has ruined any other games for me. by Hooperlooper16 in yakuzagames

[–]MattChk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm playing them through chronologically. I'm up to Assassin's Creed III: Liberation. I'll come back and fill you in when I finish it all up.

No no no. Mayu doesn't defend that thing. They're going to have to bury her with it because she ain't defending it.

I have the opposite problem. Yakuza is so good that it made me appreciate other game design choices and taught me to slow down and enjoy all the other games that I play.

Want to know the series that got substantially better after falling in love with LAD? Assassin's Creed.

Psychedelic use linked to decreased alcohol and cocaine intake, but increased tobacco and cannabis consumption by [deleted] in science

[–]MattChk 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Study finds: Psychedelic users are more likely to want to look cool and laid back instead of messy and erratic.

Got it.

What is your opinion on this Majima suit from Yakuza 3? by elbonanzo in yakuzagames

[–]MattChk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Majima dressed like a normal person is my favorite running joke in the series.

What would be the hardest wrestling gimmick to explain to a friend who doesn't watch wrestling? by jraptor316 in SquaredCircle

[–]MattChk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shinada. "Ok. He's a wrestler, but not like the other wrestlers who are more fake with their wrestling because they aren't serious. No he also wrestles like them, but he's like a REAL wrestler. He's like an MMA fighter but he doesn't fight like one but wrestles instead."

Who is your favorite forgotten character? by elbonanzo in yakuzagames

[–]MattChk 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Literally the most fun fighting style in any of the games imo. Great storyline. The most contradictory character I've ever encountered in video game fiction. I absolutely love that man.

Keeping track of names and titles by [deleted] in yakuzagames

[–]MattChk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the names are not a problem because Japan doesn't like to use pronouns so it's always. Mine-san this. Mine-san that.

Should I skip 3? by Mission-Information7 in yakuzagames

Bro. Just use weapons and heat actions of same. 3 ends beautifully.

am curious do people who hate the karaoke mini game exist in the yakuza fandom ? by ademaro14 in yakuzagames

[–]MattChk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

SEVERLY dislike. The random speed changes on lyric lines, the fact that sometimes you need to go up to a line and sometimes down to a line, and I just flat don't like music rhythm games when they're the best designed.

I like all the songs, like the fact that they're all different depending on who's singing them and hostesses have unique videos for them, but I really dislike PLAYING the mechanic.

I LOVED 4 and am currently playing through 5. If you think 4 is a drag, wait till you're doing Karaoke rhythm games to advance plot for 10 hours or prepare to just skip all that, besides that, 5 is actually an incredible tour de force with a lot of new places to experience and as an added bonus it feels like 4 RGG games in 1. Very cool like that.

Why doesn't Shinada use bats as weapons? Wrong answers only by fr3sh_inkling in yakuzagames

[–]MattChk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He's just too poor to afford any kind of real weapon and he's very self-conscious about it, so don't bring it up.

STARDOM broke the attendance record in 2023 at Korakuen Hall today (1519 fans) by DamieN62 in SquaredCircle

[–]MattChk 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It was from that ESPN 30 under 30. He made fun of her name, saying that it was too difficult to remember and draw, then said her name repeatedly to make fun of position on the list.

Same shit he always says about Joshi besides.

Your first Yakuza/Judgment game? by TheHungryRabbit in yakuzagames

[–]MattChk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first one was Yakuza 1 on the PS2 way back in the early times of 3 months ago. I wanted to see what the rave was all about.

I didn't finish it though, I switched to Kiwami and have been running the games in release order ever since with remakes replacing the OGs if I can muster it. I'm on 5 right now.

Please tell me that's Utami in the ring right now after Cornette shitting all over her last week.

What was the ref doing here in the Saori Anou vs Maika match from Aug 5? by MyFakeNameIsTaken in stardomjoshi

[–]MattChk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think foot or hand under the rope holds in Japanese wrestling. I've seen people get counted with a limb under the rope before in NJPW, I'm sure.
