Is this just Shenmue, but with actual gameplay?
>>12536575Its Resident Evil without zombies
Its super mario kart without karts
People told me to skip the ps2 Yakuza games for some reasonI don't mean their super good but it's perfectly fine best em ups
>>12536578Who are the evil residents then?
>>12536575it's more like river city ransom than shenmue, way less focused on immersion and interactivity.
>>12536575Shenmue, but you have to do the 70 Man Battle every time you walk to Tomato Mart.
>>12536606it's a pretty repetitive beat em up with a horrible camera
>>12536575The combat is worse than in Shenmue, and Spikeout didn't get better until the second game. I don't know, maybe it's something to do with the new engine.
>>12536680The camera works fine, and yeah it's repetitive but personally I think all beat em ups are repetitive. It's in the nature of the genre of just punch a bunch of guys a lot.
>>12536578They're not even remotely similar
It's Shenmue minus soul. Very soulless series that only appeals to GTA loving mouthbeathers.
>>12536606The OGs have much better atmosphere and now that there's a JP voices restoration patch there's no excuse. Only 0fags think otherwise.
>>12536575yes Yakuza is Slopmue but actually good, fun and kinothat's why Slopmue fags hate it
As someone who has only played Yakuza 1 and half of 2 (because save corruption) on PS2 only...Can anyone qrd me on WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK happened with this IP?
>>12537062you know how Resident Evil IP became a milking cow for CrapCum? well Yakuza is the same for Sega
>>12537025muh atmosphere
>>12536606I played the first one like ~10 years ago and really enjoyed it. The localization in particular is like its own breed of camp.
>>12536575It's Shenmue with a shit ton of advertising. Gotta buy suntori product give it to someone to complete quest. Want to boost stats, buy products. Listen to goofy advertisements while you are buying products. It is an awful game. The story is meh too.
No real time clock so it’s better.
>>12537037Although Yakuza 2 is one of the top games of the franchise, they didn't approach Shenmue's level of quality until Yakuza 5.
>>12536575Is this game's story a mess or am I just stupid?
