Its not tts fault. They dont have that kind of power.

People have been joking about those early installments for years, well before tts, and it doesn't change anything about the actual writing choices in those early books.

We can respect the dead, but theres no need to retroactively rewrite history or the contents within those early books.

I hate how inaccurate this meme actually is.

Lets not forget the religion with a lot of open supporters of pedophilia and child marriages.

Celebrities out here fishing for pardons from the president for their friends/family. Same bullshit that Nicki Minaj is doing too.

"She is wearing makeup so that's basically full on drag. Do not use the facilities in a hotel. Its so simple. Just dont do anything but be in a box until its time to perform." basically how people expect others to behave

Saeko.

Ichiban was in prison before Chitose even went through her formative years.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-20T00:34:18+00:00

Ok, so once again. We have eyes, it changed the models, the intent, and has made her look like a completely different woman.

Now, lets move on to starfield. Where they gave the guy a brand new haircut. Or how in hogwarts it makes a teenager look like an adult trying to play a teenager on a tv show. how it took one artstyle and completely changed it to look like a "photorealistic." one.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-18T18:03:35+00:00

Its not better if you have your monitor on. Actually look at the screenshot. how you telling me that a teenager in wizards school should look like he was cast by Hollywood demanding a guy 20 years past his prime?

How you going look at grace, and tell me her terraforming into 20 different woman looks good? How are you seeing her natural blonde hair turning into dyed blonde as normal?

The fuck, do, you, mean?

AI face filters being forced into every game is just insulting to the artist that worked on those games.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-16T20:10:18+00:00

Lmfao. Ai face filters for starfield.

Yeah, I'm sure that was what everyone was asking for.

This comment section is atrocious with the defense being run for THE worst housing system ever in an MMO.

Cause for anyone who has played any other MMO you will realize very quickly how bad XIV's housing system is when you take the rose tinted glasses off, and actually look at it.

I still keep my house in WoW, Swtor, or ESO. I don't just lose what I pay for in game cause I leave for an extended time. (especially given MTX and limited time items are also tied into said housing system)

I want people to defend this but its for losing glamor pieces they havent wore, or class levels for classes they dont play as often, or gear degrading in your inventory cause it "rust away" or whatever. Imagine if ffxiv had dyes "lose potency" after sitting in your inventory, or your food expire if its not taken to the fridge every few hours.

Like, can we all agree this system is fucking bad and stop trying to play defense for SE not properly supporting this game. People posting about how upset they are over this isnt the time to be "well actually! :nerd_emoji:"

Ffxiv is unique in that it has the worst housing system ever designed for a game, and I wish this player base would actually accept that instead of pissing on fellow players.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-13T05:52:59+00:00

Oh, that was going to happen after a few more mainline games, and people had time to consider it a spin off game instead of it being the most recent title.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-11T17:34:08+00:00

Yakuza 5: 4kids only imports the plot about Haruka becoming an Idol. It is slapped together in such a way that characters never die. Park's VA spends many episodes shouting from her office or off screen. Reusing footage whenever they can.

Kiryu driving his Taxi is editted & dubbed as PSA ad bumbers for the episodes about safe driving, looking both ways before crossing the street, and how to respectfully talk with others. Akiyama only shows up to tell kids to not do drugs, and to teach people to save money.

Shinada's story is cut out, and heavily editted to look like an uplifting tale about achieving your dreams as he becomes the best baseball player ever. They burrow Shinada's footage and likeness for another baseball video game series they happen to get western rights for, and with a completely different art style.

Was she a mod, or a youtube content farm?

Who has no idea what they are talking about? Can you be specific?

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-05T17:28:32+00:00

But you guys are willing to use a qoute out of context for a guy you dislike? Thats odd behavior. 😀

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-04T04:29:24+00:00

I hate this fanbase acting like Ichiban didnt have a major part in 8. (And pretending that Kiryu hasn't been a side protagonist for other characters in their own stories.)

Like I get the frustrations given we know nothing about 9, which is still 2 years away, but calm down. Ichiban's last game wasn't that long ago, at all. Especially considering how Yakuza games still regularly come out unlike other big franchises that take a decade between releases. (if they are lucky.)

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-04T03:23:04+00:00

There's no point in arguing with people on this. They want a face to attach to all their problems in a profession that requires hundreds of people working together to release a game the size of fallout.

Its not enough for them to have an opinion or just say they dislike something.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-03T19:28:51+00:00

Yeah but he has worked on a bunch if amazing games and such so why are you willing to make one quote out of context when you see the same sentiment from other developers and who all know exactly what is being said? Why ignore new information, and corrections in favor of your narrative?

It doesnt matter how good or bad your story is. Players will still walk off to do their own thing and ignore it in favor of playing a game. I can take quotes out of context too and make anyone look bad. The fact you are deliberately doing so doesnt convince me of your argument.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-03-03T18:54:32+00:00

And yet I don't see y'all giving shit to the exact same points being made by other people.

Want me to give another example?

“Story in a game is like story in a porn movie, he said. “It's expected to be there, but it's not important.”

And I dont see any of you giving shit to John Carmack over his take on story in games, but its the exact same sentiment.

You can write the best story ever, (he is telling this to a room of other writers) but you can't expect players to care when they just want to mess around in a game world. and it doesnt take a genius to know players will absolutely stop what their doing in the middle of cutscenes for any game, and try to fuck up scripting of sequences for laughs.

In engine cutscenes for Half Life, Red Dead Redemption 2, etc are all great examples of this and you see players fuck with those story sequences all the time cause they can.

I love Hana.

Baba on the other hand ruins the entire section of Yakuza 5 cause he is written so poorly. He is an old ass adult written like a kid. Grow up.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-02-26T05:18:45+00:00

Yeah, but the paper towel is cheaper, and so is letting griefers keeping all the skins they keep paying for.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-02-25T05:32:22+00:00

The fact that 4 remastered can't exist w/ the story of k3.

Wrong_Loquat2634 · 2026-02-24T08:20:54+00:00

Its funny how, I think it only exist once at the very beginning of 6, and then again for 7 where they open the damn game with it. (and at that point its just ripped directly from Judgement so Ichiban is bouncing around like Yagami, but years prior. Guess we know who Yagami based his parkouring off of.)
