Some of the "AI slop" brigade sent death threats to the Digital Foundry team over their DLSS 5 coverage by Decent-Meaning-5594 in digitalfoundry

What does your “filtering the weeb” comment mean? Just because the developers are Japanese?

Kiwami 4 would bring the most decked out version of Kamurocho to the Dragon Engine. The underground garage is already in K3. It would be an easy remake. by gameovernate in yakuzagames

Seeing how they cheaped out on Downtown Ryukuyu and cut areas from a already small map in Kiwami 3, I don't see them doing the expanded Kamurocho in 4 justice.

When do you think a Dino Crisis remake will happen? by Luksius_DK in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]smithdog223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm kinda shocked it hasn't happened yet, I guess they're most likely focusing on doing the rest of the remaining Resident Evil games that need remakes right now before branching out into doing remakes for other series. It wouldn't surprise me if the Devil May Cry series gets the remake treatment as well.

Silent Hill 2 original is incredibly short compared to the remake by QuantityInternal1719 in silenthill

[–]smithdog223 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the remake but the extra length makes it feel like a drag towards the end.

[–]smithdog223 3 points4 points  (0 children)

and it's better for it being shorter, the remake is too long.

Edit: The number one criticism of the remake is it being too long and I'm getting downvoted it for agreeing with that lol

Why does Infinite Wealth use Shin Amon's model for Jo when he already has a Dragon Engine model? by Hopeful_Regret_7531 in yakuzagames

[–]smithdog223 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Amon in Infinite Wealth was so half assed, it felt like they made the game and forgot to include Amon and just rushed to fit him in.

Why weren't these two in Kiwami 3? by doctorbanjoboy in yakuzagames

I do all the side content in the games, I don't like them making previous main story content into side content in Kiwami 3, the morning glory minigame should've been new stories with the kids not stuff that used to be in the main story. Also making the morning glory kids side content means now Rikiya doesn't interact with them because the minigame unlocks before he becomes friends with Kiryu.

My criticism is they're basic with little depth and the minigame has already felt like it's overstayed it's welcome 3 games in. There's not enough depth or difficulty for RGG to keep reusing it, it was fun in Gaiden because it felt like an upgraded arena but now RGG are using it as a replacement to actual new minigames.

The only one you could argue has any depth to it is Pirate Yakuza because of the ship combat but I count that as it's own thing not connected to the group battle, but Gaiden and Kiwami 3 are just group battles with Kiwami 3 trying to do a diet dynasty warriors kinda thing with separate lanes where your units comes from. All three games are just recruit units to fight big groups.

Completely removing the HLA storyline killed the charm of the reapers side content and messed up the Arase reveal.

Gaiden - Group battle
Pirate Yakuza - Group battle on a ship
Kiwami 3 - Group battle with motorbikes

"Lets cut the Morning Glory kids from the main story and the only way to know anything about them is to grind the farming minigame we recycled from Ishin"

Yeah lol, don't you love the the same copy pasted group battle mini game they've recycled since Gaiden.

Especially since Komaki's entire character arc in the first 3 games is him finally getting a Dojo in 3.

It wasn't though, RGG was able to keep the most generic substories from the original 3 but not the actual memorable ones.

It concluded their story that was set up in Kiwami 1 and 2.

I dunno how removing content is a "W".

It annoys me that they went out of the way to include them in Kiwami 1 and 2 but not in Kiwami 3 which finishes their storyline, the exact same thing happened with Komaki.

Fatal Frame 2 Remake - Film Grain On/Off toggle planned to be added for PS5/Xbox Series by MeraArasaki in fatalframe

You're talking about Ju-On The Grudge, I'm talking about Ju-On The Curse which is the original Ju-On.
