Are you excited for Kiwami 3?
>>730874881it's weird to me that people actually play yakuza in english, I guess this is what happens when your favorite series falls into the lap of the hoi polloi
I already played that story, I don't need to play it again>but Dark TiesMine's dead, who cares>but he will return as the owner of a bar in the next LAD!who gives a fuck
Not in the slightest. I'm way more excited for Stranger Than Heaven and Gang of Dragon.
Why do they keep using Yong when nobody likes him as Kiryu? He doesn't fit at all.
Yakuza 8 flopped in the West>sales in Japan and Asia seem to have made up a big part of this momentum, as Yokoyama notes, “The game is incredibly strong in Japan. Sales in (the rest of) Asia are also quite strong, but the momentum in Japan is even greater than in the past.”https://automaton-media.com/en/news/like-a-dragon-infinite-wealth-dev-surprised-by-unprecedented-speed-of-sales-and-big-change-in-sales-pattern/
>>730874881How will they make Mine survive?
>>730875078It's weird to me that people play yakuza at all. The whole series is reddit incarnate.
>>730875495The casting director for the dub and Yong are personal friends. They have convinced Kuoda and Yokoyama that Americans fucking love it and both believe them wholeheartedly.
>>730875575I played 0 and had a good time. Was fun. Was hopeful for the rest of the series but played kiwami 1 and 2 and they sucked.
>>730874881No I burned out on this series after Kiwami 2It's the same fucking game over and over again, /v/ seethed about asscreed being the same game every year but basedjack'd out when it's the same but >japan
The franchise had the PERFECT ending for Kiryu with 6
>>730875795No one is making you play mahjong and eat at every restaurant every game Anon. Also the majority of the series was made in one rush from 2005-2012, it got a lot slower after that.
>>730874881nope
>>730875906I burned out by just playing through the campaignThey literally still do yearly releases if not more, get real
>>730875708>kiwami 1 and 2nta those are bloated and the originals are better
