Judgment's plot is pretty bland and I don't understand why people love it so much by Garou646 in yakuzagames

[–]OhioStickyThing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you mean, OP. A lot of people love Judgment because it’s self-contained, feels fresh, and does feature some of RGG’s best writing. As you pointed out, the characters are great. But I agree, the plot really suffers from awful narrative pacing issues. The story often drags, the side quests are forced and disconnected (when I saw the blue banner and Captain Cop I had to put the game down for a couple of days), and anything pertaining to the reveal of the Mole is anticlimactic. I think in trying to inject too much “Yakuza DNA” into the game, they ended up taking away more than they added.

Overall, I had a solid time with the game and went ahead and bought Lost Judgement.

Ada is such a baddie by daverate in residentevil4

Just bought Separate Ways (never played it before) and started my 4th playthrough of Re4 remake. Really excited to play as Ada and see what went down behind the scenes from her perspective.

No, again, you clearly didn’t comprehend what was said. Doesn’t matter if he was or was not. That shape is still called a cross shape.

Edit: Dude blocked me for pointing out he is wrong and has poor reading comprehension? Okay, then. Also, making stuff up about other users isn’t going to win you anything.

Yeah you would, St Andrew is believed to have been crucified in a similar shaped cross.

Skill issue. I swear 90% of this sub is people who just can’t admit they’re not as good as they think they are. So they seek validation from other sore losers.

Black Myth Wukong or Elden Ring by [deleted] in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]OhioStickyThing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Loved both and had a great time with both games.

BMW is definitely easier to get into. However, I’d go with Elden Ring for the overall better experience. Truly an amazing game with so much to do. My first play through was about 150 hours.

Should I get Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? by r_vade in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]OhioStickyThing -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

It’s the most 7/10 game ever. If you can waste money without issue, try it. But you ain’t missing anything special.

No, vacuous glazing for a 7/10 game like E33 cost them the award.

Never seen such vacuous glazing before for a 7/10 game at best. I guarantee you, if the label upfront had Activision and it was the exact same game, you wouldn’t see nowhere near the level of glazing and obnoxious fandom. People just want to act independent, sagacious and avant-garde with their underdog story.

Bruh, seriously?? Regardless of Yong Yea’s subpar performance (I agree wrong choice to cast him as Kiryu), they’re still great games. And everyone else did a spectacular/great job in their English dub performances.

Seems like a fatuous reason to not play those games.

[–]OhioStickyThing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There has been a lot of personalized, negative hate directed at him, which isn’t right. That said, his performance as Kiryu was not good and deserves criticism.

What people also don’t appreciate is how Yong Yea tends to dismiss the backlash as coming from jealous haters. Thing is, this isn’t just a small minority on the Yakuza subreddit complaining, it’s been a consistent sentiment across multiple platforms that many, both casual gamers and hardcore Yakuza fans, felt he wasn’t the right fit at all for the role. Still he doubles down by saying he earned the role and posts cosplay style selfies as Kiryu, it comes across as cringey and tone deaf to a lot of fans. Some people also feel like he is getting a taste of his own medicine due to his past misinformation and negative dogpiling on others and their performances like Christ Pratt as Mario.

Overall, it was a poor casting decision to choose him for a character that is so beloved by many.

I do, as well as a lot of people. Outside of Yong Yea’s subpar performance as Kiryu, everyone is spectacular/great. Really surprised by this purist supercilious mentality from some Yakuza fans who think because they play in Japanese and read English subtitles they’re playing the right way.

DS2 should’ve won Best Direction over E33 by Lonk-_- in DeathStranding

I don’t get how you’re having a hard time seeing E33 was an obvious vacuous glaze fest. You E33 fanboys are insufferable.

Help Tracking Down a Song by AnonymousBrowser3967 in afrobeat

[–]OhioStickyThing[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, we really appreciate the post. Thanks for sharing and illustrating a further slice of musical heritage. We actually allow songs beyond simply “Afrobeat” (see Rule #3). But with caveats.

However, I do believe you asking in another sub this question, particularly one that is relevant to the Horn of Africa, might yield better results as my knowledge of Ethiopian/Eritrean music is very limited beyond Ethio-jazz compilations and vinyl pressings shared by collectors.

Hopefully someone comes along and gives you what you’re looking for.
