What happens when you dont gatekeep. It should be a lesson to all fandoms

>>715142072 (OP)
yakuza is now nortubel tier

>>715142072 (OP)
>encel problems

the funny part is how they really didn't manage to retain many of the 0fags past porting the remasters to PC

>>715142072 (OP)
I'm old enough to remember when Sega fully remastered Yakuza 1 and released the game for $30, even for the steelbook version
Now the mid-2010s games don't even go on sale for more than 50% as of a couple years ago

>>715142269
what the fuck is 'nortubel' ??

>>715142072 (OP)
LMAO

>>715142172
No, it's what happens when your game and franchise director leaves. There were always real life likeness in Yakuza games, but they always made sense. These cameos are just pointless.

>y0 dc
someone explain this shit to me

>>715142591
Same grift with most remaster-likes: they want to sell the same game on current platforms.

>>715142445
Who is that

>>715142591
They ported Yakuza 0 to Switch 2, and it order to make it seem "worth it", they added a bunch of garbage to it which just made it worse.

>official English dub, with Yong Yea STILL reprising his role as Kiryu
>some of the scenes in that story that had no voice acting and were mainly static images now have a narrator that reads them out loud
>they added a bunch of new cutscenes in, on the request of Yokoyama, which did nothing but make the game worse, because what they do is that they remove whatever bits of subtlety that were in it and treats the players like genuine fucking retards who NEED to be told exactly what the story means since they can't figure it out themselves
>no visual upgrades, in fact, worse graphics since they fucked up the port and you get weird issues like LOD glitches (low quality models / textures loading in when they shouldn't) and the UI and HUD texts and other icons are in 720p and looking all messy and blurry when they should be in 1080p

it's this crazy bitch

Why do billion dollar companies hire these people instead of experienced voice actors?

>>715142974
Because you get to be a billion dollar company by penny pinching. Also, they mistakenly think these people hold any sway or are like movie stars that will get people to play their game. That's not how VA works.

>>715142974
>why do megacorporations focused on profit above all else hire amateurs who will work for "exposure" over people with integrity who know what they're worth

>>715142072 (OP)
JUSTIIIIIICEEEEEE

>>715142943
Fucking hell. Thanks. Haven't bought a game since LaD.
If any of you have it, and a friend, there's a co-op mod for Yakuza 5 that has just come out. It's not half assed either.

>>715142943
why even bother hiring these types of people that you know would use the role you give them as mouthpiece for their propaganda?

>>715142445
>>715142943
Not surprised. SEGA's been competing with Capcom to be the wokest and most pozzed JP company out there in the past few years by hiring, listening, and pandering to the nutjobs.

>>715143639
they did remove the tranny side quests in Y3 too where he tries to rape kiryu in the ass multiple times throughout the game, causing a chase sequence where you're the one running away from it in order not to get your ass raped

>>715143784
So finally got the hostess clubs, only for a whole sidequest to be removed instead

I have Yakuza fatigue. Wake me up when Stranger Than Heaven releases

>>715142072 (OP)
This series really reached the end of its lifespan and just goes on as a corpse huh?
Well the only games that matter are
>yakuza 1 (ps2)
>yakuza 2 (ps2)
>yakuza 3
>yakuza 4
>yakuza 5
>yakuza 0
Everything after that is just garbage including the kiwami remakes.
