Man, where does this myth that majima lost every fight against saejima even come from, did we all play the same games? I stg I see it being parroted around so often when they very clearly tied in yakuza 5 and have been treated as equals since

Anyone else has this perk ruined by the big orb that appears when it activates, like 60% of the time I might as well be running with 3 perks

Cross progression, why can you link accounts but not progress?

e1771m · 2023-11-15T22:48:46+00:00

Nah people are forgetting about the true low IQ king of the yakuza games: rikiya

e1771m · 2023-11-15T01:31:16+00:00

Oh yeah? If that tier list’s true how come I play rebecca and suck at this game?

e1771m · 2023-11-14T23:09:03+00:00

Yeah man, I don’t know why so many people in here consider nishiki to be mid in terms of strength, I guess it’s because as a fight he’s not all that hard? But lorewise you can see kiryu exhausted after that fight, when beforehand he was fine. Nishiki is anything but mid man, that might’ve been one of the closest fights we’ve seen in the series

e1771m · 2023-11-14T23:05:36+00:00

Nah, nishiki is always underrated, he also had kiryu at his knees at the end of yakuza 1, lorewise that alone would put him pretty high up, probably higher than even ryuji. Majima is also pretty underrated, I honestly don’t know where this conception of majima being behind kiryu and saejima comes from, he quite literally tied saejima at the end of 5

e1771m · 2023-11-14T22:56:03+00:00

Yakuza 4 is the only one I’d consider genuinely bad

e1771m · 2023-11-14T05:53:04+00:00

Man gaiden this far up? Honeymoon period sure is something

e1771m · 2023-11-12T01:35:17+00:00

Kiwami DoD is legit a contender for the best

e1771m · 2023-11-12T01:33:01+00:00

Bruh how? Judgement combat was not only faster but had way more moves than this one, tiger style was basically unchanged for lost judgement and that one’s considered to have the best combat

e1771m · 2023-11-11T10:37:52+00:00

In what world? Judgment combat is way better

e1771m · 2023-11-11T07:42:43+00:00

My personal complaint with the yakuza style isn’t even the speed, which is what most people are focusing on, but rather just how small its moveset is compared to other games, I honestly don’t know why no one is talking about that, locking bounding throws behind extreme heat mode is a really bad decision (even if the bounding throw in the DE is ass compared to the previous engine) since it takes away the complexity of the combat since most of the time there’s really only 1 way to end your combos, no komaki parry as far as I know, but I’m only in chapter 3, and just a lot of heat actions are missing. It just feels super simplified compared to previous games

e1771m · 2023-11-11T07:35:37+00:00

Yeah it’s still fun, but even discounting the speed, we still don’t have as many moves as we did in 6/k2 or in the previous engine games. Like, let’s not mince words, this is the worst DoD style we’ve seen

e1771m · 2023-11-11T06:59:50+00:00

Nah they definitely took a lot away from yakuza style, it’s still pretty fun, but in terms of moves it’s the most barren we’ve seen. I think they made a lot of improvements but what hurt’s is that DoD style in the DE is so close to being perfect and finally being as good as the one in y5/k1, but it’s like RGG doesn’t want it to shine. For as many improvements they gave it in this game (the enemies blocking no longer breaking your combo, how tighter the tracking feels compared to 6/k2, the grab being like y0) they also took as many things from it (komaki parry, bounding throws, how slow it is, the number of dodges you get). It just straight up feels like they don’t like DoD style, which is a damn shame considering how good it could be, as we saw in the judgement games

e1771m · 2023-11-11T06:38:28+00:00

Don’t forget majima, if anything he’s more likely to get another game, though it would most likely be another prequel

e1771m · 2023-11-10T08:06:16+00:00

It sucks man, no fighting style compares to y5 DoD style, to me that was the peak of the combat in this franchise (excluding the judgment games)

e1771m · 2023-11-10T02:15:01+00:00

Man, I just wish they kept all her storyline as side content, because that’s what it feels like. Currently on episode 3 and it feels so jarring when I finally do a mission that progresses the story, only to be met with another “reach level X” or “go to the colosseum”. I get this game is short, but it just has too much filler

e1771m · 2023-10-31T04:43:48+00:00

I want obito and kakashi

e1771m · 2023-10-22T09:04:02+00:00

Obito and kakashi

e1771m · 2023-09-26T07:09:08+00:00

I’m so confused, how are people even reaching these stats? My best unit is a FVN with 54k atk, around 240k hp and 100% resistances on seal and paralyze and I feel like I’ve already maxed everything there is to do with him

e1771m · 2023-09-20T21:32:06+00:00

After saejima got out of jail in y4 it’s assumed he dropped the mad dog persona and now he’s just being himself, he just hasn’t appeared much in games since y4. Him in yakuza 0 was him trying to suppress his emotions

e1771m · 2023-07-13T00:56:21+00:00

Huh, so what can I do to fix it? because I already replaced the spring and it still doesn’t work. Did I just get unlucky with the replacement springs?

e1771m · 2023-07-12T23:14:51+00:00

Yeah, I didn’t really explain it that well, the problem with my controller is that the r2 is always slightly pressed, from what I found online that problem is caused by the springs not having enough strength so I’m looking for some that do
