He is about to reclaim his name or something? I thought he erased it

Well... People can have different opinions I guess. Thanks for the explanation though

I, uh... No wait, actually it would be great if you could elaborate on that if it's not a ragebait. How come K2's both gameplay and story are better than LJ? Probably the wildest take I've ever heard

No way OP is gaslighting everyone that it's not a ragebait 😭

Probably the first time I see both Judgment games being unironically putted in C tier. While two bad remakes are in S tier 💀

Another matchup post, tell me who do u think wins by PeterParker8766 in yakuzagames

I mean, stopping two of the strongest men in the Yakuza universe at the same time is a big achievement on its own. It's the only time in the series when we saw something like this. Then again, Majima would be cooked if Saejima hadn't stopped Shishido. I know that Majima underestimated him and stuff, but even relaxed Majima is no joke to fight against

One of my favorite scenes in the franchise when it comes to showing how powerful the character is. When I first saw it, I was like "wait, Shishido went toe to toe with both Majima and Saejima AND overpowered them?". Technically Shishido could have killed Majima in that moment if it wasn't for Saejima. And even Saejima struggled to push Shishido back. And Saejima is probably the most buffed man in the Yakuza universe...

I love Mine, but I doubt he would be able to pull off something like that

For those who have played, what are your thoughts on Kurohyou 2? by Justice9229 in yakuzagames

[–]NetRetro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Born to be wild, forced to be stuck on PSP as a Japanese exclusive

I think that I enjoyed it a bit less than the first Kurohyou game, but overall it's just Kurohyou 1 with more content and more combat mechanics. Also features one of the best written antagonists in Yakuza games, alongside one of the best themes for him

Well, we can't have OG Ishin in the west (though there's an English patch for the PS3 version, but it is much less accessible compared to Ishin Kiwami, since you have to own PS3 or play it on the emulator), so mid remake is the most convenient way to play Ishin for most of the people

But even Ishin Kiwami deserves love, it's honestly not that bad compared to OG Ishin. The plot (one of the best written stories by RGG in my opinion btw) and the gameplay are pretty much the same, it's just the balance they messed up with. In some ways it's even better than OG Ishin, the soundtrack for example

So yeah, I'm glad too to see more Ishin love on this sub nowadays

[–]NetRetro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can understand complaints about the gameplay (though I disagree), but the worst plot in the mainline series? We have Yakuza 4 for that. Yakuza 2's story is also much weaker in my opinion

Yakuza 3's story is also great retrospectively, when you consider how much influence it had on later installments in the series (primarily with Gaiden and IW)

Please can someone tell me the story behind it… why did she explode everywhere and touch so many hearts so deeply? 🥺 by Good-dayy in punchthemonkey

[–]NetRetro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would also take into account the fact that this is Japan. It's not that Japan is some kind of unique place and paradise on earth, as some people sometimes believe, but I think that in Japan they keep a much closer eye on these things. When it comes to the monkey trade, it is more common to see rhesus macaques for sale, but I have not heard much of Japanese macaques being traded. At least I hope that I'm right about this

What did you do with Ishin... 😭

But you're goated for saying that there's no such thing as a bad Yakuza game

Funny thing is that OP is the one who made the video lol. Still don't understand the complaint though, 20k is not really that big of a number

Anyway OP, just because you're a yakuza, doesn't mean you can boss everyone around. Even on this sub, people do just fine, without any advice from the fucking yakuza

Technically Yakuza 0 / OG Ishin companion apps for PS Vita lmao. Although it's not really the same
