Find a flaw
5 was mostly shit.
>>385551326
is 0 really the best in the series
>>385551737
by far. the multiple fighting styles alone made it the best on top of majima being playable in the mainline series
>>385551519
>5 is the hardest yakuza game in the series
>people shit on it while everyone else likes it
only casuals complain about 5
>>385551326
Does the reaction mean you thought Kiwami was good?
Not shitposting I kinda can't the meaning of the reaction
>>385552423
Kiwami basically remade a bad yakuza game into one of the best so the reaction is crying happyness
i feel gay for writing this somehow
I started with 0 and bought the reprints of 1-4. Should I start 1 or wait for Kiwami?
>liking Yakuza Dead Souls
>liking Yakuza Kiwami
>not thinking Yakuza 2 is best in series
Could you be any gayer?
>>385552790
i have all the yakuza games including spin-offs. i started with 2 because i couldn't stand 1. get the kiwami version. its pretty good but expect a very fucking bad boss fight

>Kiwami is bad guis! they made 2 songs shit, therefore the whole game is bad
whats wrong with 6?
just curious
Why exactly makes 6 so bad?
Imagine thinking 2 is better than zero
Lmfaoo

Lack of content compared to past games, characters people like are hardly in it, big performance problems which feels like a step back from 0 and despite being "Kiryu's last chapter" it ends with a terrible boss and ending.

>>385553420
>plot is so fucking bad it makes dead souls look like a masterpiece
>Combat is floaty as fuck
>NO DANCING AT ALL
>Amon battle is lackluster and doesn't require doing all substories to unlock
>Has lower content than Kiwami
>80% of the characters are chinese literal whos
>fps drops below 20
>>385553338
Since its a new engine, the game feels more like a prototype or a beta of what could've been a better product
hows the psp games?
>>385551326
pretty much agree, but the difference between translated and japanese 3 isn't that big dude. it's still a great game despite the cut content.
>>385551931
>5
>hardest
What?
It's easy. Even 0 is harder.
Not to mention Ishin.
>>385555253
Good, surprisingly.
They were made by the same guys who made Def Jam: Fight for NY.
And fighting system is pretty cool.

I've just started Yakuza 5. I'm a bit into Saejima's part and this is easily the worst Yakuza I've played. The writing is absolutely terrible. It's so fucking boring and drawn out. They seem to really be stretching to make this game as long as the others.
>>385553792
Dead Souls plot was alright, better than 5 and 4 (and 3 too).
>>385555667
and great OSTs

oh ok then.
why is yakuza a good game? it sounds to me like a gta but with only melee and high focus on minigames?
>wanted to start this series
>the OP keeps sending me mixed messages
Why are there two Yakuza 3s listed
I thought 4 was kinda shitty. Hated switching characters and only playing them for a couple hours. Been hesitant to start 5 after that.
>>385557784
>gta
It is nothing like GTA. This is the comparasion people who never touched Yakuza like to make.
>>385557784
how the hell is it like gta?
>>385557849
JP version and NA version. lots of cut content in the NA version
>>385557784
3D beat em up with good characters, fun gameplay, and lots of content.
>>385557849
NA cuts out hostess bars and turns them into shitty sidequests, cuts a good portion of mini-games and a few sidequests.
It is still good, especially if you don't know enough about the franchise to be bothered by these changes.
Start is also incredibly slow, which can be a turnoff if you don't know the story.

thats because i have never played any of them and im trying to get some info about the game
>>385559354
Alright i'll fill you in
Yakuza 1 is ok at best but it has a horrible dub and a pretty clunky combat system, but has a good plot. all of that is improved in Yakuza 2 along with more content
Yakuza 3 starts slow but its a major jump in improvments, but has a shorter story
Yakuza 4 once again bumped up by having 4 playable MCs but its almost the same as 3 expect it doesn't start slow.
Yakuza 5 is pretty much the same as 4 but with more content
Yakuza 0 introduces multiple fighting styles which made it the best yakuza game in the series. also has the best karaoke
Yakuza 6 is a major disappointment due to the lack of content and a flawed engine because they never finished it
Yakuza kiwami is a complete remake of Yakuza 1. it fixed all the issues in the original because it uses the 0 engine.
Yakuza spin-off games like Kenzan and Ishin are really REALLY good but was never released in the west because they were made to test their new engines.
Yakuza Dead souls isn't close to a yakuza game but its a nice Dead Rising clone
The PSP yakuza games are basically Def Jam mixed with Yakuza theme. i recommend them.
hope you enjoy them. i spent 250 bucks buying all the yakuza games plus pre-ordering Kiwami and it was worth itand despite 6's flaws, im still gonna get it because its the last game that has Kiryu
>>385551326
This is the true taste
>>385551326
The fighting gets repetitive due to being too frequent.
>>385560373
it's basically Japan's COD. its always released each year and bundled in consoles. only difference is that each game is good (until 6)
I'm seeing mixed opinions about kiwami. Should I get it over the original? Yakuza 0 was my first game and it's fun as hell.
>>385557784
its modern shenmue
>>385561748
Same here. Any advice people have about it would be neat.
>>385561748
yes
the original was good for its time, not anymore
Honest question, I know Yakuza takes alot of gameplay from the Shenmue games and with S3 coming out will Yu just emulate the current Yakuza games?
>>385555681
Wait until you get to the rooftop battle royale which makes no sense
