Imagine a game being as good as Yakuza 0

I think that's probably it. Life sims aint for me.

Finish zero and then stop. It's all downhill from there.

> It's all downhill from there.
Why do people use this phrase to say the games get worse? "It's all downhill from there" means it gets easier, not worse.

Except you can if you win the telephone club game. But you were probably an incel even in Yakuza, huh?

don't listen to all the 0babbys responding to you. theres plenty more great games in the series.

Kamurocho... home...

wait Mr Libido is real?
WHO IS THIS GUY AND WHAT DOES HE DO

I've been playing Kiwami 2 and I don't know if I prefer the new or old combat, I feel like something is missing and heat actions feel really lame in comparison to 0 and there's less of them

Airhumping every girls he came across the street.

they're all great but 0 has the strongest story. imo it's worth playing the whole series and the only weak one is 3

You're right but it has nothing to do with the level of difficulty. It means you've reached the peak and there's nothing else to look forward to.

how long until hard gay gets face scanned into ryu ga gotoku

Controversial opinion but yeah, the games are way too verbose. Nishitani in the police station for example.

I love the series but I think that's the main reason you have to take breaks before playing the next one. You're doing all those sub stories and each and every one has you absolutely hammering that X button.

I hated the side missions.

>Me and my girlfriend got into a fight help us make up
>I need me dad to see im in a relationship
>Gotta make money for x sad reason
>Kid with shitty parents needs a favor

Maybe its because the characters looked like gooks, but this was one of the first games in a long time where I just started skipping side quest dialouge and felt bttter for it

I didn't mind most of them, but the only one that made me livid was that crossword puzzle one.

The fucking "catch the sea turtle, eel and salmon" one

I've only played 0, kiwami, and kiwami 2 but I think zero's karaoke songs were the best. The songs in each kiwami game haven't matched 0s.

>start cyclops saga
>expect a short hastily thrown together thing
>suddenly there's an intro cutscene with voiced dialogue and shit
>then it turns out to be a hastily thrown together thing
It's okay for what it set out to do but fuck. My biggest complaint is how limited Mad Doggo moveset is. It was limited in 0 but it had that dash that consumed heat which you could do after dashes/strong dash attacks and then zip around generating even more heat with your attacks while dodging everything that's thrown at you, it was fun to use despite how small the moveset was but here you don't even have that sprint shit. Breaker was OP but i really miss Memejima's styles from 0, even Thug was so satisfying to use. I heard that 3 or 4 have multiple characters with each character representing a style, like one of them being Kiryu's rush one. What stuff is there and are they as good as to use as in 0?

I can imagine a better one and it's called Yakuza 5.

Yakuza 5 story is shit tho

all yakuza games seem shit after 0.
Thats why 0 should be played as the last Y

Y5 is alright but you're literally out of your mind if you think it's better than Y0.

or just play 0 and save yourself 600 hours you could use to play better games, or even spend doing something worthwhile with your life

I don't get this meme. I played both 0 and Kiwami 1 and loved both.

And I played also Yakuza 1 and 2 for PS2 and loved them a lot. Currently I am playing Kiwami 2 and it's pretty great so far. So I don't get this meme of Y0 being the best, in my opinion Y2 is the best game in the series so far.

I can't wait for 3-4-5-6 to be ported on PC.

HE'S REAL?

>leaving out where he mocks the western fans as being losers guys with skin issues
lol, so alpha

Dead Souls unironically has the best, then Kiwami probably

Also if you haven’t heard Akiyama sing Baka Mitai you’re doing yourself a disservice

Yes and so is 0's. The stories in these games have never been particularly good. 5 has like twice the amount of content as 0 and it's all way better than the shitty real estate and cabaret minigames.

>I don't get this meme of Y0 being the best
You don't understand writing, cinematography AND combat mechanics then. Don't lie to yourself, you "understand" everything, just won't admit it because of pure contrarianism

I dunno, user. If I have to pick the weakest experiences would be Yakuza 1 and Kiwami 1 pretty much. 0, 2 and Kiwami 2 are all a blast.

How is 0 any way better then the rest of the series where each game has microscopical differences between them?
Even spouting shit like "styles" doesn't really matter as 4 and 5 was basically the same shit, bland characters that were slow, fast, grabby kiryu.
Story was never good in those games to begin with, each had nonsensical asspulls because the writer is a hack that watched too many korean dramas aimed at teenage girls.
The only real highlights of the entire series was always just the soundtrack and the ability to explore Japan's red light district in (current year the game was released), other than that it was a subpar action beat em up series like dozen others since PS2.

>The songs in each kiwami game
No fucking shit. They were so lazy they don't even bother copy pasting the Otomei my life karaoke animation from 4, a slideshow of screenshots is good enough for the good boys keep buying their quality games.

They're all the same but 0 does what Yakuza does best. It's still boring as fuck after 30 hours but at least that's better than being boring as fuck after 10 hours like every other Yakuza game.

Shotenburi are so fucking boring.

I like it, but they keep bringing it back without really changing anything. Kamurocho tends to change a fair amount with each game, but Sotenbori in K2 is essentially just the 5 version without the park and a touch of verticality that’s only really apparent with the acupuncture place and Karaoke bar. A bit of a letdown as Onomichi in 6 was great and felt a lot more “real” than Sotenbori ever has imo.

It's the second best one, only loses to 2.

So what you're telling me, Nagoshi, is I will get mad pussy if I go to nippon and chat up the bitches about Ryu Ga gotoku.

That’s Kiryu’s VA, Nagoshi is the golden god

fucking zero shitters. kys.

Didn’t seem too bad for them after FotNS’s dub

I loved this game but know nothing about Japan. Realistically, how much fucking is going on at a hostess club? Are they literally just prostitutes sugar coated for the game or is it actually classy?

Attached: maxresdefault.jpg (1280x720, 115K)

all depends if you have game and money. just like in irl.

as good as the girl from the car racing mini-game who becames Kiryu's gf

I’m not an expert but I’m pretty sure they’re just bars with overpriced food and drinks where girls sit at your table and talk to you for an allotted amount of time. Sometimes people go on dates with the girls afterwards but thats probably as far as it goes

They work in the club as your date while you drink over there. IF you got the money, she may do "dates" outside the club, and you can arrange a hostess session with your favorite before going to the club, or picking her up and go to the club with her.

is this the birth of an epic maymay?

situational as fuck, like most of 0's upgrades

When people throw shit at you I guess

>that final sequence on the yacht when guys just deplete your entire health bar in half a second from all the way across the level by shooting you with guns when the entire game was a brawler up until that point

Love this game there is some shit from the dark ages of design in it

I like the more contextual combat in the Dragon Engine games, personally.
Tossing a fucker 20 feet after a finishing blow will never get old.
I'd still say 0 is the best, but Kiwami 2 especially is also pretty damn great.

The tone of the sidequests are a very specifically Japanese choice. The point of the series is Sega noticed that Japs were outgrowing gaming in their mid 20's so they made a super serious mature story driven game to lure them in and then threw the side quests in for younger players. If you want a grown up game with no silliness you can just play the story and skip the side quests.

The side missions were by far my favourite part

Kenzan in the west when

When you press f12 (or whatever button you have as screenshot) it switches the button icons over to KB+M until you hit an input on the controller to put it back.

I'd agree that zero is the only good one, and it's barely good at that.

He says he likes men with femenine make-up, and the closest thing Kiryu knows about that is the Angel bar. There is a okama who looks like a girl, so the korean enjoys it, yet not Kiryu.

Who in their right mind would want to do all these? Jesus fucking Christ talk about padding

Because 0 was the 1st Yakuza game for the majority of the current fanbase. What followed after compared to Y0 didn't help either. Yakuza 6 was the first Dragon Engine game and had a shit ton of content missing that was featured in previous previous games. Kiwami 1 was a lazy remake. Kiwami 2 was so so. And Hokuto was just shit. Next is Judgement which is actually a great so there's that at least. But then there's Yakuza 3 remaster which some people like while others don't. 4-5 are alright.

It's pretty good the only thing that I thought was gay is how you can't use the Dragon of dojima stype right away, you pretty much have to beat the game have it and then when you finally do who gives a shit the games over

Once Nu-AKI stops working on Style Savvy games

>but they don't get flack because that's what the game is
