Yakuza flopped in the West

>Yakuza blew up as memes on the internet for western audiences.
>The sales tell a different story and are tepid and worse entry after entry, Japan and Asia are indeed the majority of sales and that share seems to increase game after game (despite overall sales being lower overall)

https://www.installbaseforum.com/forums/threads/bloomberg-netease-to-stop-funding-nagoshi-studio-as-it-cuts-back-on-gaming.4452/page-2#post-406650


>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.”

This is why you never trust social media to carry you. Retards only care about the "funny haha meme" they don't give a fuck about past that or even the main thing itself. Dipshits act like Dr. Livesey in the Russian Treasure Island is some sort of badass, but in the actual movie he's a traitorous pussy who doesn't even kill anybody.

They're not related, they're both half breed stowaways that get picked up by Orpheus Dogg. Probably going to be the Tojo Clan and Omi Alliance origin because Yokoyama isn't that creative

I think it's more likely something permanently changes with him partway through the game

>>
>>738349994
Yu is obviously either the Omi Alliance founder or the Daidoji, but they very briefly alluded to the Omi already being in Sotenbori so I'd be willing to bet on the latter

Really cool that they actually made a completely new combat system for this. People were noticing aspects of the game that reminded them of one of the spinoffs, but it seems more like the other way around, this is really big and it has too many mechanics and stuff to be made in a short amount of time. It's more like they develop tech for this game and then shit out a spinoff in a year to make money while they keep working on this.

I'm not familiar with this woman, was her real face never shown? How did she do concerts/events?

>>738349868
Once they tied it to Kamurocho (and now Sotenbori) I knew to give up. Especially since they didn't show the Kamurocho stuff because it apparently has some major tie-in to Yakuza now. I'm still cautiously optimistic, but I know better than to just blindly be happy about anything I saw after fucking Kiwami 3.

Does it really matter when the connection is just the name Tojo? It's only a problem if we end up having a bunch of Yakuza references and ancestors running around, but if not then it's still functionally it's own thing. Feels like you're kinda just looking for any reason to dislike.

>had a chance to distance themselves from the rgg franchise

WHY
>>
>>738352427
I didn't feel like the ties to RGG held Judgment back in any way. The franchise's rep is in the gutter right now so it feels bad to see those connections, but I'm sure it'll be no big deal again.

The problem with Tojo in the series so far is that they're literally a bunch of asshole lieutenants and sub-division leaders but next to nothing actually gets to highlight what made the Tojo who or what they really are. They're generic yakuza thugs with power plays against each other, and only a couple standouts like Sera, Daigo, Majima, etc for personal reasons. That, and Kiryu constantly trying to go straight means we only ever see the outside since he's got zero interest on the inside if it isn't relevant to the plot. I wonder if they'll actually have the balls to make Makoto the kind of bastard that made the Tojo Clan become what it is, given the trailers show his brutality and this one hints he betrays his good friends to make it higher and higher.
Fuck, is this the first time we're actually getting a yakuza focus in RGG that actually is spotlighting the activity for more than just crime drama and comedy?

Never played a Yakuza but I like this period, does it seem like it'll be full of references to previous games or more standalone?
>>
>>738353747
made for newcomers but with some references
>>
>>738353747
Until this video we weren't even sure if it would take place in the same continuity, so whatever references there are can't be too overt or it would have been obvious before. Should be a decent starting point.
>>
>>738353747
Seems like a bit of both. Timeline-wise, this game comes before any other in the franchise.
>>
>>738353747
It's a prequel, so it's setting up everything that would eventually become the later games. Probably lots of references forwards and certain characters set up, but these games are usually so standalone or summarize the gist of what you need to know that the main plots can be played entirely without touching any other games. We have yet to see if that's the case here, but it does seem mostly the same.

I wonder how much self-hatred at being a half-nip is going to play into Makoto's character. The fact that he dons sunglasses which hide his biggest give away, which is his blue eyes, right after 1915 implies that he has a real complex about it.

Both Daitou Makoto and Shinjou Yuu use the kanji for truth, so whenever they put those two names together in sequence, like it happened many times in this video, you have "their truths" face to face, colliding.
大東真と真城優
And Makoto's actor is Shirota Yuu, so the game's Yuu has two of his name's kanji plus Makoto.
城田優 -> 真城優

how would you guys recommend playing yakuzasa games for first timers?
was planning to play kiwami over yakuza 1
>>
>>738358886
kiwami is made for people that started with 0 you either start with 0 or 1
>>
>>738358886
If you can manage it emulate the original for the PS2 and go in release order because Kiwami is just a completely different game entirely (same for K2 and K3). If you're not willing to do that then might as well start with 0 and skip the non-Kiwami 1-3. Don't start with Kiwami 1 either way.
>>
>>738358886
I played 1 and 2 on ps2 and 3, 4, and 5 on ps3
>>
>>738359102
isn't kiwami 3 utter dog shit with cut content?
>>
>>738359375
But it has extra Dark Ties content!
>>
>>738359375
It has a lot of added and replaced content? There's not a whole lot cut, and the combat blows the original 3's out of the water. Most egregious missing things are a couple substories about Haruka and Mikio but the whole plot's there (I platinumed both the original and remake including Dark Ties)

my only main concern is that im still not on board with playing the same games hence i was trying to opt for kiwami instead of y1
but if i play y1, y2 would i miss a lot by not playing the kiwami games?
>>
>>738359650
There's kind of an ouroboros situation where 0 can be best enjoyed with context from 1-5 since it's packed with references to them and was written with being a prequel in mind, but Kiwami which came out right after it has a bunch of additions referencing 0, so either way you lose out. You either start with PS2 and resolve to do K1 when you get back around to it (they play VERY differently, I think it's worth it), or you just start with 0 and resolve yourself to getting a kind of neutered experience to start with.
>>
>>738359650
kiwami is more of a sequel to 0
if you play in release order, you would play 1-5, then 0, then kiwami, then 6
>>
>>738359375
At its fundamentals it's okay like K2, but it's just not Y3. So much shit from 8, so many neutered mechanics that make it worse than the Gaidens or Judgments, so many dumb decisions and cut content, and most importantly the utterly butchered conclusion.

Honestly, I would play 0 because it is really fun, then play Kiwami versions, they're good, don't get stressed over missing content, you are going to forget most of it anyway, either because it is too much or may get burnout, it's a franchise that you get to enjoy slowly. However, there is the option to watch 1-6 on YouTube (kiwami or not) or just the ones you feel like not playing, but do play Gaiden. IF you want, you can play the Ryu Ga gotoku 7 and 8, that's where you start with Ichiban and is an excellent entry to the series too IF you skip the Kiryu games, I would say you try them even if it is not your kind of genre.
If you just don't give a fuck after 0, you could play Judgement instead, skip the whole Kiryu and Ichiban games. Then play Stranger than Heaven. It's fun to understand the references, but I think it's not that important anyway.

I don't expect much from it being a prequel, honestly. 0 technically sets up how 1 came to be, but they had virtually zero interest beyond Nishiki and Dojima drama in doing actual prequel things that mattered. Unless this is the Yokoyama era where self-referential nightmares are abound and thus they can't help themselves from tying into every little thing.

The first judgment depict yakuza the best compared to mainline. The series is too afraid to portray them as the criminal scum they are. I also liked that they didn't try to go too deep into kaito's pov post banishment, he's just an ex-yakuza with no expertise to go legit and that's all there is to it.
I'm pretty whatever on the main story (pretty shitty for a mystery desu) but I enjoyed judgment's worldbuilding better.

What really bugs me about the Tojo is how eventually they just stopped even trying to keep the relevant families consistent between games.
The Nishikiyama family was resilient enough to keep appearing in 2 and 3 despite the massive blow of Nishiki's death. Soon enough after that, every family only exists to be a part of the story for the game they're introduced, then they disappear.

It's written by Takeuchi, a genius writer recognized by Yokoyama himself. Also known as the guy behind the additional scenes in Yakuza 0 DC and Bushkuza 3.

>"Mako Daito is actually Kiryu's dad" theory
Wait, wouldn't that make Kiryu the true heir of the Tojo Clan, making at least one of the games(that i remember) occur purely due to Daito's lack of communication?
>>
>>738365746
Just like how Ichiban is Arakawa's true heir?
>>
>>738365746
At least half of the drama in this series is based on a lack of communication or a misunderstanding.
>>
>>738365426
If haruka didn't have a woman moment it could've been a great finale. Like, she could've just quietly retire after all that, she has a plausible reason as the head of her agency died in the office.
>>
>>738365746
>Kazama was actually trying to prevent Kiryu from following his father's footstep, that's why he killed Makoto and was very hesitant about Kiryu joining the yakuza
Makes sense
>>
>>738365746
In that case, wouldn't Kazama be the one to blame?
He is the one who killed Kiryu's parents after all.

I just finished 6. Played 0 - 6.

Some basic bitch takes -
0 is the best.
6 is I think is the runner up. The themes of parents and children were pulled off spectacularly.
5 has the best side content but the most retarded story. I thought they couldn't beat rubber bullets but "Let's kill each other to reveal the villain" was worse.
Akiyama the best
Majima is overrated by the fanbase
Park is the most underrated and underutilized character in the series and the fanbase's irrational hatred of her is proof that they shit themselves and cry over actually nuanced characters and can't stomach anything more than lol funny yakuza character!
Also proof the writers are hacks and just repeat the same shit over and over.
>>
>>738366008
>Also proof the writers are hacks and just repeat the same shit over and over.
Yeah, as much as Yokoyama fancies himself a creative writer with infinite shocking twists up his sleeve, he's actually a one trick pony. He was already beginning to run out of ideas in Yakuza 2.
>>
>>738366008
Majima was intended as a one off villain, but since people liked him and the game doesn't have many characters anyway, they brought him back.
Post 3 majima is basically a different guy anyway. He completely stopped being a clown.
>>
>>738366283
Post 3 he was relegated to propping up other characters and their storylines, like Saejima and Park. He was only back to his older, independent self in Dead Souls.
>>

Haruka's section in 5 and her relationship with Park made me almost have faith. I was genuinely interested what the story was going to do between them.

I think he's actually supposed to be blonde in that particular section of the game, you can tell in the trailer when his hair is getting fucked by the outdoor lighting, but like in >>738366000 they're firmly indoors and his hairdo is also different
I think the joke is that's during the Sotenbori arc and he's supposed to look like Ryuji

Tori Kelly is a very underrated singer. Definitely deserved more fame compared to who got popular and especially over the ones who won American Idol.

I understand what they went for. That sweeping Kiryu under the rug so she could be famous was wrong to her. Maybe she didn't need to be theatrical about it, but I guess there's some idol culture shit going on where she wants to be transparent with her fans and not just disappear.

There's nothing like this in the idolshit culture. Yokoyama already explained that whole chain of events between 5 and 6. He said he actually has no idea how to write female characters, so he decided to write Haruka as the female Kiryu. And Kiryu has a long history of taking the most retarded routes in spite of everyone around offering sound advice and begging him not to go full retard.
