Sleeping Dogs combat>>>>>>>>Yakuza

>Bamham combat is good now

That's why we have Dragon Engine now that shits on Sleeping Dogs.

Thanks, SD has a little more freedom in terms of being able to perform grabs and charge certain attacks but it's basically, sure it looks nice but it's not that far off from being one long QTE.

If Sleeping Dogs should be compared to something it's Bully, not Yakuza.
GTA style game with a hand to hand combat focus.

Beaten the main story of Sleeping Dogs for the second time, the other day. Combat sucked, after a while. Grabbing is supposed to be the block breaker, but there's only like one enemy type that isn't immune to grabbing when they aren't almost dead. So you have plenty of fights where you are just waiting to be attacked.

dragon engine is the same shit with ragdoll physics

Yakuza is just an interactive movie.

Imagine having a majima gf

and yakuza's combat has depth?
if enemies don't have heat, you just lock them in an infinite combo
if they do have heat, you either a) play extremely passively which makes fights take literally forever or b) sip sip sip

The game tells you if an enemy blocks a lot you should either use a guard breaker, grab them or get behind them. Guard breakers tend to be too slow to combo out of, so all you'll do is push them back & force them to start blocking again. Grabbing them doesn't work on any heat enemies. Getting behind them just makes you get hit by an instant 180 counterattack or they just 180 block instantly

Movie>>unlosable chase section it which you just push forward followed by a walking sequence in which your run button is disabled.

Hit yourself with a bat 5-20 times a day, and you'll get a similar experience.

We can never have yakuza threads without shitposting on nu-Yea Forums

>grabbing doesn't work on heat enemies

Mash that mf circle button. Usually works if you're fast enough.

I never said it was DMC or Virtual Fighter but it's very strong for realistic style action RPG.
The simple fact that more people unlock the extra grindie trophies
like Haruka's Trust than beat the quick to finish but hard Climax Battles shows that combat's skill ceiling is too high for a lot of players.

bamham has more depth and that's saying much

Yakuza combat is actually really good, its a shame the game has 0 difficulty but mechanically it has a lot of similarities to tekken minus launchers ie, its a shame the game never sets any kind of reward for using less health items or playing better overall so most casuals just mash square and heal, on the other hand sleeping dogs had that batman combat so casuals easily find the flashiest stuff better

That's correct though. You don't have to like Sleeping Dogs' combat to think this, Yakuza combat is just an even more braindead version of Musou combat with some QTE stuff thrown in.
