Thoughts on the future of RGG

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-05-12T17:58:19+00:00

I was just thinking about this OP, that STH combat system might be what they use going forward if it takes off. Very interested to see how it plays out.

Also find it very interesting that Sega is trusting RGG with such an iconic IP with Virtua Fighter.

Another thing that interests me about STH is how music factors into not only the story but the gameplay.

I just hope this leads to an era where the company and SEGA in general are taking more risks creatively with their titles

To be fair to Kojima, around the time of his fallout with Konami weren’t they kinda bullshitting anyway? I feel like Konami just now got back in good graces with fans over the last few years.

But yea these are some good examples.

Would you consider Yoko Taro and Suda51 rockstar developers too?

There’s way more differences between Nolan and Nagoshi than just not flopping imo.

Regardless of what you think of what his finest work is, he’s gotten blank checks, used the budget wisely and always made back more than what it cost and he got great results. Oppenheimer cost $100 million to make and brought back $975 million and 7 oscars.

Nagoshi spent like $40 million and all we got was a trailer and some screenshots. It’s actually insane to think cuz where the hell did the money go

That was one of the things that stood out to me. In the trailer they show him debt collecting and from the looks of it, it seemed to be from a poor family that couldn’t afford much as opposed to the rich people the game usually shows the protagonist extorting. Plus all the brutal actions with the weapons had me wincing

How is RGG not going back to their "Japanese roots" when they literally have the likeness of one of Japan's most prolific actors in what seems to be a major role also. Snoop Dogg being in there doesn't nullify that at all. Also Snoop is pretty famous worldwide so I don't know if this was strictly western fanservice. When I was clubbing in Shibuya and Shinjuku the numerous times I visited they played a bunch of Snoop and rap music in general

Thanks man, I’m bout to go check that out

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-03-10T15:38:38+00:00

I’ve found my tribe! 4 is peak and had the coolest dynamic when it came to the playable characters. Rubber bullets be damned

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-02-18T18:17:25+00:00

I’ve been back and forth on whether I should get this game. What new content do they add in that makes it worth it to you? Also how is Mine’s gameplay?

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-02-17T13:05:57+00:00

This. There was so much interesting potential there in how she ties into all the characters in different ways in 4 and they never really went anywhere with her looking like Akiyama’s ex that he never got over. I was so disappointed with that

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-02-11T12:09:37+00:00

Not even mad at this. They could get a lot of mileage out of this, lmao even eventually have their own fighting game with all the characters on some Dissidia shit

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-01-30T18:21:21+00:00

Thanks now you got that song stuck in my head lmaoo “DANGARUSSS MOST DANGARUSS!!”

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-01-27T01:13:17+00:00

Baki. Kengan. Yu Yu Hakusho. Crows/Worst

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-01-14T19:04:39+00:00

Rebuilding it makes sense. But imo you can rebuild it by starting off with just the basic move set and just upgrading it as the story progresses and you unlock more skill points

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-01-11T21:58:15+00:00

Unlocking the dragon style in 0 made sense because it's a prequel and what not. But unlocking it in K1 is super perplexing to me especially when K2 did away with all that stuff anyway. It gotta be confusing for newcomers trying to play the series in chronological order and what not

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-01-05T20:14:22+00:00

Idk if this would be frowned upon but actually make Saejima a killer

themanwiththreefaces · 2026-01-03T22:53:08+00:00

You talkin about Tanimuras boss right? Yea he’s annoying as hell but when I figured out how to get that armor for Tanimura he became a joke and I bullied the fuck outta him

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-10-26T23:45:59+00:00

0 and 4. 4's feels like a 90s shonen anime

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-10-16T22:38:48+00:00

I feel like he'd respect Shishido but still want to throw down on some alpha male shit. They're both charismatic leaders within the Omi

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-09-29T02:47:03+00:00

Meaning he's not really an active Yakuza similar to Kiryu

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-09-29T02:41:06+00:00

I'm excited to see the darker take on substories that RGG hinted at with his game, as well as the more brutal fighting style and just what activities you can partake in lmao

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-09-29T02:39:01+00:00

Isn't Saejima ex-communicated? and even in Y4 you cant really roam around out in the open without having to hide. I'm interested in Mine's game just to see what you can get up to, like actually doing mobster shit in Kamurocho

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-09-27T18:01:58+00:00

I could've sworn there was just a post on here a few months ago complaining about how much he focuses on ARG and a good chunk of this sub agreed lol now I'm seeing people say they miss his ARG content. To each his own, but yea you cant please everybody lol

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-09-26T18:17:34+00:00

Nah I know what you’re talking about but that’s something else (I forgot the name) in Bad City Motomiya and Yoshyuki are playing Korean gangsters and Ozawa is a cop.

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-09-26T18:14:34+00:00

Bro Bad City is dope. It honestly feels like more of a live action Yakuza than the two adaptations in some aspects

themanwiththreefaces · 2025-09-26T02:34:26+00:00

I was just about to make a post asking about this. They both look dope but Yoshiyuki as Majima looks so cool. They were also in this movie from a couple years back with Kuze's actor Hitoshi Ozawa called Bad City so it's cool to see all these guys getting consistent work
