Yakuza series on PC when?

>>376496674
never ever

>>376496674
Never, despite the fact that they would sell the most in the west on PC due to PC being a lot more open to niche stuff. Also because PS4 took X360's spot as "Dudebro Console" this generation so niche shit like this doesn't do well on it in the west.

every consolefag spontaneously combusts when?

Yeah because VC totally didn't outsell it's PS3 and PS4 releases, totally. Oh wait, it did.
It's almost as if PC players like unique niche games or something and don't like AAA trash because it's generic as fuck.

>counting those people as "PC gamers".
No anon, they are only as much PC gamers as women are hardcore gamers for playing Farmville 70 hours a week.
I don't even know why the fuck are you trying to start platform wars shitposting. Gaming would be objectively better in general if all games were available on all platforms so nobody would feel left out, faggot. Not to mention competition between hardware creators would give rise to better hardware since they wouldn't be able to lock shit behind exclusivity wall anymore.
And this applies to PC exclusives as well, where I wouldn't mind them being playable on consoles at all, considering consoles do support USB mouse and keyboard.

Glad I got my ps4 since Yakuza 0 is probably the game I've had the most fun with on it so far.
Haven't played any of the other ones so I'm also looking forward to Kiwami, although it seems like it's a shittier version of 0.

>Gaming would be objectively better in general if all games were available on all platforms so nobody would feel left out, faggot.

If you lived in this reality and not your magical land, you'd be wrong

The reason why some games exists is because a company paid to produce it

As in, bloodborne
WAAAAAH WHY CAN'T I PLAY IT ON MY PC AND XBOX!

Because if Sony didn't pay for it, it wouldn't EXISTS

At all

This is like complaning that game of thrones is ONLY on HBO
Like yea it would be "objectively" better if it was on everything, but that's not how this reality worls pal

And besides, consoles are as cheap as dirt

>>376497304
>this reddit spacing

Sure, many of these games that were funded on exclusivity may not have existed, but we'd have different games in their place, you corporate dicksucking moron. Brand loyalty is cancer incarnate and you should neck yourself for rallying behind any specific brand/corporation.

And you never owned a console? Seems like you only started to play games recently, grow up man.
But hey... maybe in 10 years you can emulate them?

I'm glad this thread isn't full platform shitposting yet

I own a PS4 but I just prefer PC, I'd definitely buy Yakuza games on steam if they got ported.

I want mod which allows you romance with Yuki-chan instead of retarded blind whore

>>376500153
The thing is you could complain about everything, hardware wise for me PS4 is the worst console I ever owned, very laggy/slow console but it starts to get more and more good games (at least in japan)
Sure it would be best to have all games on one platform but that's not how it works, all those companies need money plus they are already fucking over both console and PC users left and right nowadays.
Back then at least consoles got some quality remakes or ports now it seems like it's just a cash grab especially for PC.

>>376499519
Outside of 2 getting reworked I don't see why we need a remaster of 3-5 yet. They all still hold up graphically and mechanically whereas 1 and 2 really show their age at times just from the fixed angles and all the loading screens alone.

Yakuza 0 made by Sega? Or is stuff like baionetta 2?

Prety much this.

I have zero understanding why any of you buyfags pay for PC games. We live in the world of FREE VIDYA.

Maybe it's an age gap, but I do remember buying computer games... up until me and my friends realized we can all chip in on the game and burn it onto floppy disks/CDs.

Now this shit's on the internet, and you Steamfaggots are begging to pay money like your dad didn't beat you hard enough.

>>376501272
They have been "opening up" to PC for years. They still see it as nothing more than a dumping ground for old games while consoles get top priority. Take Valkyria Chronicles. It "sold well" on PC, never mind the fact it was dirt cheap for most of its life, yet Sega is making Azure Revolution, a game inspired and funded by the success of the PC port, for the Xbone over the PC.

Sega is just Japanese. Japan hates PC, it's almost as if computers bombed them or something.

>>376501506
The PC fags are forgetting one important thing.
All Sega games sold very good in Japan alone, the best one to mention would be Yakuza series which sells so much in Japan that they shit out those games each year.
Plus Yakuza series always had some licensing issues in the west so porting it to PC would be even a bigger problem.

>>376496674

>Another day another kek begging thread
Like clockwork. Repeat after me: NEVER EVER.

Don't overhype Yakuza you bastard, it really isn't that good.

This is what playing a Yakuza game is:
>15 minute cutscene
>walk through the streets for 2 minutes
>30 seconds of combat
>15 minute cutscene
>walk through the street
>play boring minigames
>get bored of them so continue the story
>15 minute cutscene
>30 seconds of combat
>15 minute cutscene
>walk through the street
>30 seconds of combat

They are bad games.

It's okay to like Japanese soap operas, just don't pretend that it's a good video game series. Yakuza is absolute garbage as a video game. All you do is direct Kiryu to the next cutscene and occasionally mash some buttons when he gets attacked. Do you not see this? Are you so blind?

Im genuinly sad that other platforms don't get to experince Yakuza and i have been playing since release in 2005.

Yakuza 5 left me feeling jaded and as tired as Kiryu looked, then Yakuza 0 came out and it was EXACTLY what the series needed. Kiryu needs more YOUTH stories. We need to have Yakuza focus on Kiryu and majima again and not "a bunch of rando civilians" like Yakuza 4 started the trend of.

Yakuza 0 made me feel alive for vidya again, i got fucking chills when KUZEEEEEEEEEEE happened. The Yakuza series is all about "what is the essence of a real man" its dramatic and awesome and eternal hype once again.

Its a fantastic series in its own niche and i wish you could all experince it because i know when a game is exclusive to one platform its easy for people to just say "it was shit anyway, keep your shit game" but it really is fuckig GOAT tier as a series.

>>376508705
>We need to have Yakuza focus on Kiryu and majima again and not "a bunch of rando civilians" like Yakuza 4 started the trend of.
Why? Akiyama was fantastic and completely on par with Kiryu (Hana coming back to Akiyama and him having that entire moment with her was 10/10), and Tanimura/Saejima both had their pluses and were enjoyable to play as. It was nice to see them take the center stage with Kiryu getting to live his life before briefly getting whisked into everything again. The man needs a break, not to constantly get roped into the Tojo Clan's dilemmas over and over again.

I'd rather have them make a new protagonist and have Kiryu be the equivalent of a Komaki to the new person than anything else since he's already in his 50s by the time 6 rolls around. Kiryu's already been in seven games, one of which isn't canon, why does he need to be the only main character of the series when it's clear they want to be done with Kiryu's story and need to find really absurd ways to get him to come back yet again? They've shown they can easily do new characters from 4 alone and make them likeable, we don't need to sit on Majima and Kiryu's stories forever.

>>376502196
You can say this about anything a miss the "essence" of why a lot of people will tell you, that you are wrong. I could just say:

>dark souls is shit, it's literally just rolling away from a giant boss for 12 minutes and poking him ith a poorly animated stab and then rolling for another 12 minutes. Its an ukemi aimualtor and its shit don't invest into it.

And there would quite rightly be an army of people to tell me im being a shitter.

Because he's just too damn good a anon. He is the best there is. The problem in 2005 was they started with him already being too old after he got out of prison. Yakuza 0 madee realise what we had been missing all this time. The young buck Kiryu.

>>376510083
>Because he's just too damn good
Yeah, he is, but at some point you have to let him rest. Plus, 0 was the origin story, you can't really go any farther back since 2 somewhat shows his life with Fuma and 0 is his entire early Yakuza career. There's nowhere for you to work with it outside of him being asspulled into a random story during a very random time during 0's events or something directly before 1 but after the end of 0 that not a single person every recalled happening in 6 games.

We have to let a new guy get a chance.

>>376508705

Yakuza is already over, Kiryu's story has ended.

Just get Kiwami at this point. The one guy behind the Kenzan/3 fan patch projects commented he tried doing the udub for 1 but it had problems with them being unable to extract the voices or something? I can't remember what he said exactly.

>>376512439
Shimano, Yuya, and GARY BUSTERRRRRRRR HOLMES all had great choices for voices. I just can't unsee The Joker from Majima and it doesn't work for me compared to the eccentric "Kiryu-chan" even though everyone else seems to love Mark Hamill as Majima. Kiryu and Date are both really weird after hearing the JP voices for so long as well, Kiryu kind of works but Date sounds really off.

>>376514003
I'm pretty sure the only game with major censorship/content removal was the third game, and the rest kept a large amount of the content from the japanese version.

The western version of 0 even has the softcore videos and catfight den

>>376514003
1 and 2 were uncut if I remember right but you were forced with a dub in 1, 3 is http://forums.sega.com/showthread.php?322120-Full-list-of-cut-content , 4 just had Answer x Answer removed which is understandable because it has to do with (At the time) current knowledge of Japanese modern affairs or something like that, or something to do with idols, either way it would be nigh impossible for most foreigners. no clue on Dead Souls or 5 but I believe they were uncut, and they went out of their way on 0 to tell everyone it was uncut.

>>376514003
After 1 and 2 every game has cut songs, mini games and some sub stories, but it varies depending on title.
From 5 to 0 they only cut licensed songs.

Should Kiryu make it into Tekken 7 as a DLC character, I hope they use either 5 or Kiwami Kiryu. 0 Kiryu is also fine.

>>376514367
What substories got cut from 4 onward? 4 isn't missing anything but the song and Answer x Answer and has 63 substories in the JP version according to http://kouryakutsushin.com/ryu4/, same as the English one. 5 has the song missing and I also think Answer x Answer and has 78 substories in both EN and JP (http://dswiipspwikips3.jp/ryu5/substory.html), and Dead Souls has 60 just like Of the End (http://kouryakutsushin.com/ryu-oftheend-wiki/)

Only 3 has cut substories like the one guy trying to either teach English or asking something in English, I'm not sure, the suicidal guy and his girlfriend, the Taichi nude mag stuff, and there's one other substory I'm forgetting.

>>376515105
I doubt they would go with prequel Kiryu, from what I've heard he was the #1 suggested character for the guest fighters, I'm already considering buying Tekken 7 but Kiryu would seal the deal for me

>I can't remember what he said exactly.
Pratically every audio line is not an unique file on its own, multile lines lies into another files and those changes when you load the game, turning into a mess.
When he undubbed with the automatic (and common) way, used on most games, he spawned like 25 female bartenders inside the bar just by loading the game.
Each file has to be manually modified and there are like +1000 files, it would had taken months or more.

Yeah, I'd say for a stage they could either go with the Tenkaichi street entrance or some part of Millennium Tower

Yakuza only exists because of Sony, since no other platform wanted the game in 2005. Also the one attempt at porting it to another platform (1+2 HD for Wii U on Japan) was a total failure.

the series has always been PS-only and will always be, unfortunately.

And just so we're on the same page. With "better" you mean the clunkier and outdated one? Because thats what it is. Clunky and outdated.

You can play the remake on PS3, like I said before I'm not saying it's shit but it doesn't hold up to the original game, it's that simple.
I enjoyed it before Y6 but it has the same flaws as original one plus creating new ones that the old one didn't have.

>>376520368
The original didn't even hold up on its own. The series didn't get good until Yakuza 2 and Yakuza Kiwami finally made the first story good enough to actually recommend to people other than the most die hard Yakuza fans, but stay mad Kiwami made Yakuza 1 obsolete.

>>376519492
>Yakuza only exists because of Sony, since no other platform wanted the game in 2005
>unfortunately.
Make up your mind schizo.

>>376496723
PS4 isn't a dude bro console. It has plenty of Japanese games on it.

>>376520593
But all Yakuza games are identical, not sure why would any Yakuza game be obsolete.
What do you mean that the original didn't even hold up on its own?

>>376520368
>>376520045
>but it doesn't hold up to the original game
lmao. You're gonna have a lot of fun once Kiwami is released in the west. Because you gotta work overtime to shit up threads then

>>376520593
Pretty much this. No reason to play 1 anymore, unless you're a nostalgiafag. But truth be told there are lots of nostalgiafags on /v/, so I'm not surprised to see them sperg out in this thread.

>>376520674
well i'm glad SOMEONE allowed the series to exist, but it's shitty that i have to keep buying Sony consoles to play the series

also being multiplat would allow the games to find a wider audience, especially in the west

>>376521096
This. Its not like we all bought Yakuza 1 in 2005 and thought "god that was shit, i sure wont be buying any potential sequel now"

i was fucking glad for the orginal VA in Yakuza 2 though. It is still the perfect Yakuza game.

>>376496674
why would you want this shit series? i played the last one to be released on the ps3 and it was legitimate trash.

>>376520948
But that is the retarded aspect of your comment and brain process algorithm.

You stated it yourself that its because of Sony that EOPs get the game at the west at all because nobody else wanted it.
A) Because of Sony it made it over
B) Nobody else wanted it
And now that its made it over its unfortunate that it happened?

God forbid we have nice things for once.

>>376521284
Yakuza 1 in 2005 was decent and showed potential, which the sequel reached. Going back to the original is pretty painful, especially the combat. The fact that Kiwami fixes the original to make going back to that story actually fun is great.

>Jap games that should be on PC but aren't: the comprehensive list
Yakuza series
Persona 5
Tales of Vesperia

That's it. Any games not included in the comprehensive list are either shit or can be emulated well.

To be fair, the original's fighting is kind of clunky. You do feel like you're fighting the controls at times to have R1 lock on properly. Still, it has one of the best Amon fights and is a great place to start even if it doesn't have the improvements of the later games. Plus it's fantastic to see the game progress, you have no idea how it felt going from 1 --> 2 --> Kenzan and feeling that awe and wonder when you get dropped into Gion and you can just look around and do whatever without fixed angled or anything. It was magical.

Going for 100% in Yakuza 5 is one of the most painful things I've done. I do not recommend this.

>>376521781
It's impossible for it to be worse than Kenzan I guarantee it simply from the coliseum grind. Most of what I've seen of the list is tedium rather than anything being that difficult.

>>376521664
Yeah... Resident Evil 2 was WAYYYYYY better than RE1 but that doesn't mean i call it shit now because 2 was better.

So far 5 is my least favorite of the bunch.

Kiwami is a better game but they really fucked up the music and no bullshit nostalgia will ever tell you otherwise.

>>376522834
So the original is better? Got it.

>>376501506
Sega is definitely an old school Japanese business but they definitely have nothing against PC. If PC was where the money was then that's where they would go. Because they know they can make more by selling on consoles and not have to worry about piracy then they will produce games for consoles.

It's just business and unfortunately the PC is not a good platform to make money on unless you're an MMO or MOBA that requires constant online connection/in-app purchases.

>Make Game 1

????

>>376523017
>b-b-but music

The moment a fanbase goes to the music category to claim a worse game is actually better, you know they have no taste and can easily disregard their claim that even the music is better in the original. Kiwami has rocking music and better than the trashy bad j-rock of the original.

>>376522834
>but with IMPROVEMENTS to it, yeah, there's no reason to play the older unless you're a nostalgiafag
That's some dumbfaggot opinion I've seen for a while

>>376496674
Sega's been pretty receptive to porting older games to PC recently, and it seems that sales are good.
I'd say its a possibility for us to get something Yakuza related, but I'm not gonna get my hopes up until they make an announcement.

>>376523285
>make game 1
>it's only okay with bad combat

You shouldn't judge games if your standards are just 'muh nostalgia".

Still has the improvements of the other 12 titles though.

>>376523554
Can you explain in detail why Yakuza 1 is bad and Yakuza 2 is good?
Both are identical, just have different story and few tweaks, by your logic Y2 should be dog shit too.

>>376523640
Yeah but Game 15 came out and now every other game is shit because Game 15 has all the new stuff?

Why are some people so threatened by Kiwami? Its not like the original Yakuza ceases to exist.

If you feel nostalgic about the original and dont like some of the changes in Kiwami, stick with the original. Same goes the other way around. I dont understand why everything has to be a fight.

>>376523685
Yakuza 1 combat was clunky
Yakuza 2 made it a bit smoother when fighting multiple enemies(your turns arent long and sluggish)

story in both games are top tier however and graphics are the same

>>376523685
the story is MILES better, it has stellar characters, combat was improved a lot, another city to play was added, the sidequests are better and overall there's just way more memorable moments

So much worse than the adrenaline pumping music of Kiwami.
And keep your fantasies in Yakuza, faget. The only ass you'll be kicking is your own once I force it up your ass.

>>376523807
So Yakuza 2 is shit but a little smooth in one aspect?

>>376523880
That's subjective, for me the story in 2 was more generic, combat didn't have that much improvement to the point that you can say that Y1 is shit and Y2 is amazing.
Also funny enough PS3 version of Yakuza 1 has all improvements of Yakuza 2, plus improved visuals and additional content, does it make this game amazing now?

>>376524067
The only good kiwami remake you posted was the boss battle one, that one they didnt fuck up but however pray me is inferior and you didnt even post a good yakuza zero song

>>376524159
No what are you saying? Are you implying 1 or 2 are bad?

>>376524159
Yakuza 2's combat is a massive improvement over the original. Controls are smooth as butter, tag teaming enemies with your partner is a great addition, you aren't locked in one direction when you attack enemies making the combat a lot smoother. Yakuza 2's combat is so good, it's still among the best of the series despite how many sequels it got afterwards. Y1's combat is by far the worst of the series.

I hope so.

Have they said anything about it before? Wasn't Binary Domain, by the same devs, on PC?

Don't tell lies about games you haven't played, anon. You are talking to Yakuza fans who actually played those games.

Anon plz

>>376524931
>Now the PS3 version of Yakuza 1 has also those improvements
It doesn't, there is a noticeable difference when going from 1 HD to 2 HD in targeting because in 1 HD it continues to stay in the direction you're looking when you beat a guy and hold R1 and move around whereas in 2 HD it will slowly re-orient you into the position of the enemy. Punching or kicking will also snap you closer to the next enemy in 2 HD whereas in 1 HD you will just keep kicking ahead of you.

I should know since the HD collection was my first time fully playing through these games.

>>376496723
PS4 is anything but a doodbro console, you fucking nyukka.

>>376526020
I love REmake but i ALWAYS give up on getting the different endings and always go for the Jill/Chirs/Barry/Rebecca endings.

Soon. There will be a yakuza teaser in the vanquish files, and once yakuza is on PC there will be a persona teaser in the yakuza files.

>>376525331
I played it and it is improved

>>376526334
Targeting was never good, but compared to 1 and 1 HD it has improved

>>376527023
If you have played it, then don't tell lies. The Y1 combat doesn't have the Y2 improvements to combat, even if there was the slightest and hardly noticeable attempt to make it less shit in the Y1 HD version.

>>376527023
>but compared to 1 and 1 HD it has improved
Okay, so what changed then between the two? Because I have played both and it's the same on both the games. HD was literally just them upping the resolution, adding item storage to the phone booths, and making the load times nil.

http://ryu-ga-gotoku.com/hd_edition/
http://dengekionline.com/elem/000/000/554/554263/
Even the official site or press release doesn't mention them changing the gameplay to be like the later games in 1 or 2.

Would this make everyone happy?

I feel tempted to pirate and play the HD version of 2 on my Wii U instead of plugging in the PS2 again and being unable to play off the TV

I know people often do it since some of the games aren't ever translated, but i fear I'll ruin my experience by constantly pausing the game to check whatever they're saying in Japanese

Is there a guide for these sort of situations?

>>376529845
The way I did it was have a video walkthrough of the game in English on my second monitor and just have the sound muted and sync up the cutscenes. It worked out really well, the only thing you miss out on are the random passerby comments and the equipment text so you don't always know what the accessories you're equipping do.
