Oh my god that’s a good bundle. I almost caved and bought Yakuza 0 this weekend and now I’m really glad I didn’t.

The Yakuza series have some of the best and funniest writing in gaming

I’m partway through 0, my first Yakuza game, and I’ve really been shocked at how good it is. Aside from a couple clunky titles that I assume sounded better in Japanese (“The Pleasure King” cracks me up every time I hear it) you can’t even tell it’s translated. It has a very Japanese character but I never feel lost even though I don’t know a whole lot about Japanese culture.

I'm holding off on 6 until Kiwami 2 and 3-5 HD come out in the US so I can play in order. I hope I don't have to wait too long

Me too but I can only pray that my willpower holds out and I don’t crave more Yakuza so bad that I crack :pray:

The most humiliated I’ve ever been in a game was when I accepted the old shogi player’s challenge to a game in Yakuza 0, told him I was a beginner so he said “great, then I’ll try to play like a beginner too!” and then watched as he completely blew me out in a matter of minutes

I completely forget what was going on in Y6 and wasn't that far (I think I made it to a little past where you meet Beat Takeshi's character?) maybe I'll just play 0 then and come back to it later. Thanks all. And thank you sega.

Yakuza 0 is the best game I’ve played in years, you should really go for it.

Kiwami’s really great too but it lacks something I just can’t define compared to 0, probably just something about it being a remake of a 13-year-old PS2 game. I still love it a lot but I appreciated it more the longer it’s been since I beat 0.

I stayed up way too late to beat it last night and now I’m miserable at work for nothing since I didn’t even make it to the end thanks to Majima jumping out at me with 5 health bars every 3 steps. It’s going to be a rough couple of weeks waiting on Kiwami 2 once I finish it off tonight.

It’d be cool if there was an exhaustive list somewhere of what was changed for the remake. Some of it’s really obvious, like the side story about reuniting the Pocket Circuit kids, or when Everyone’s Idol Goro shows up and makes a bunch of references to 24-Hour Cinderella. But there’s some things I wonder about, like Majima kind of casually mentioning that he used to run a cabaret club in a throwaway line before moving on to describe other jobs he’s worked—was that added in because of the cabaret club mini game in 0, or was that whole game and storyline added to 0 based on a throwaway line from 2005?

Majima trying to distract a crowd so a guy performing as a living statue can run off to take a dump was really good too.

I also like how like half the sub-stories in 0 and Kiwami are just Kiryu falling for obvious scams because he’s the most credulous dipshit alive.

Kazama Kiryu has never killed anyone, but the innocent teenage store clerk probably has

Is Kiryu never killing anyone canon? I know in the street fights people just stand back up and go “ngh... he’s so strong!!” even after getting a knife roundhouse kicked through their stomach or whatever but the vehicle sections in 0 and Kiwami where he shoots the driver of a car full of gunmen and then the car flips 4 times and explodes seems a little harder to brush off like that
