looking back i think i only like the games where this guy was ACTUALLY a part of the yakuza.

yeah shame he kept getting kicked out

>>716091753 (OP)
You mean the opening twenty minutes of Yakuza 1 and the first two hours of Yakuza 0?

>>716091753 (OP)
I liked the Yakuza that had Pocket Circuit
Come to think of it I only really liked Pocket Circuit
Why doesn't someone make a stand alone Pocket Circuit game? That shit is dope.

>>716091906
kicked out of the yakuza 109 times, but it was never his fault

>>716091956
pre-fucking-cisely, that's the only time he had a semblance of character outside of stone wall gary stu

>>716091753 (OP)
Kiryu would be a shitty yakuza. He has too much honor, actual yakuza are supposed to be thugs. Kiryu won't even punch a woman.

There were loads of them in the 1990s up until the PS2. Actual Mini 4WD is pretty cheap too.

that's wh in japan it's called "like a dragon", they only called it yakuza in the west because they thought it would make people interested

i feel like there's a reason why the series was called "Like a Dragon" in japan.
On that subject, is Maxwell Paynewell /ourguy/?

>AHHHH DAIGO YOU'RE NOT RUNNING THE TOJO CLAN RIGHT AHHHH I NEED TO HELP YOU
>t. man who ran the Tojo Clan for like two hours

At least in Ishin he's more or less ride or die with the Shinsengumi.

I looked into buying some of those little stock car things during corona because I was going kinda crazy from the lock downs. Evidentially there is like on company in Japan that makes all of them and they were sold out.

After thinking about it I wouldn't want to have the actual toys because it would just be more clutter and I already have so much shit in my house. Just a vidya with the ability to design and build tracks, customize your car would be cool. If they wanna make it online slop that would be kinda cool too. They could have tourneys put on by the dev where rare parts would be the reward. Like you could win ingame currency competing in comp and use that to buy booster packs with random parts and even have a trade section in the racing store where you could trade your parts for in game currency or other parts.

I think there's a mobile game that is what you want, can't recall its name though

>>716092715
>>716092727
they only named it 'like a dragon' so you can sympathize with the fish guy

>>716093198
>>716093109
It's called "Mini Legend"

>>716093198

Ta lad, I am off to see if I have a new obsession

Did they add pocket circuit to the 3-4-5 remakes?

>>716093602
Why would they when you can manage a cabaret and play thythmn games?

>>716093602
No, Pocket Circuit Fighter gets a gf and gets married, then works on Dragon Kart before becoming its CEO by 2020

>>716093835
Because you can do that in Y0, kiwami 1 and 2 and do pocket circuit as well. Why not? They put the pocket circuit guy in 6 and they added a bunch of Y0 elements to LAD Ishin. When they remake games they usually add the stuff from the newer mainline titles.

>yakuza 2: daigo you can’t run from your responsibilities to the tojo because I want to run away from my responsibilities and the last guy I picked was secretly korean
>yakuza 3: how dare you offer me millions of dollars to move my orphanage to save the tojo clan, you are dead to me. Now that you are awake from your coma good luck funding the tojo after I wiped out your top earners lol
>yakuza 4: did you really attempt to save the criminal empire I forced you to run by committing crime? Guess I will have to teach you responsibility as the 30 second head of the tojo clan by beating you unconscious
>Yakuza 5: how dare you come to me for help, I won’t help you or the tojo clan avoid a massive war, until it personally affects me
>yakuza 6: daigo plz lose face for me I always thought of you as a son

Kiryu is a huge piece of shit to daigo lmao, granted he learned how to be a parent from kazama, the biggest asshole in the series

>>716093916
That is revealed in Y6.

>>716094045
He was an annoying preteen. This made Kiryu decide he deserved it

>>716094045
>Daigo for some reason got shat on by the community until the fucking covid years where people went 180 on him
As someone that was a part of this fanbase for 15 years, i never understood why people made fun of him.

>>716092727
>Maxwell Paynewell
He's definitely ahead of the curve when it comes to his analysis videos. The only youtuber that had previously tried going in depth with explaining the combat and mechanics was Snowiest Angeman, but his style is much more just showcasing instead of analysing and critiquing.

Truth be told, while most Yakuza Tubers have great production value on their videos, I'd say Tehsnakerer and Maxwell are the only ones that actually make videos worth watching every single second

Devilleon has some bangers, but quite a few duds as well. Snowiest can be very shallow and condescending. Gokudoni is much like Devilleon, but in his case, I'd say his videos are much more satisfying to watch if you haven't experienced what he's talking about. For example, his Shishido video is pretty good, but he didn't reach any conclusion that I also hadn't after playing the game and rewatching some of the cutscenes.

tl;dr: Froob = Tehsnakerer = Maxwell > Devilleon > Gokudoni >>>>>>> Snowiest

>>716094792
I wouldn't even say that I agree with MP on a majority of his takes, his content is just actual effort and critical thinking. But yeah all of this seems about right to me.

>>716094307
Daigo is a good guy, a would be proud to be his stepfather. Seriously how the fuck did his loser dad pull a top tier woman like daigos mom?

>>716091753 (OP)
for me, it's Akiyama. The best Yakuza protagonist. I even ask for extra Akiyama sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.

>>716091753 (OP)
he never really leaves, he's always "kicked out" as some grand keikaku

>>716091753 (OP)
I just played judgement and it felt like I was more apart of the Yakuza than a detective.
