English dub is really good in this game.

Get the undub patch, even if it's a little too good at what it does because it makes the shit localization choices in Y2 and Y3 more jarring than usual. Only faggots unironically recommend the le ironically edgy meme dub.

>>718340649 (OP)
No. Subs only.

I started with the cringekino dub and enjoyed it but its probably better to play the undub version, as well as all the translation fixes for the other games. Though I'm not sure OG2 has one yet.

it's a really fun dub

The meme dub makes the mediocre plot actually tolerable and I genuinely wish they kept doing ones for the ps3 games. Especially since "muh yume the game" already has a particularly terrible plot anyways. A dub wouldn't make it any worse and at least let me get some laughs out of it.

>they brought kiryu's EN voice actor back for 7
>he didn't want to do any more so they got that e-celeb

Why can't you just stop playing if you hate the story in a story-focused game so much? Why do you NEED shitty ironic meme dubs to keep playing games you fundamentally hate?

Just play Kiwami, no one cares about the two ps2 titles anymore except turbotists.

I think the undub is the better experience, and the patch is really well done. However, experiencing the eng dub has some merit for entertainment and historical purposes (it's how many of us played the game back in the day, after all). You might be able to get your fill of it from youtube, though.

there's a mod with japanese custcenes subbed and also uncensored content with accurate translation
so you must try that

>>718340790
The guy who made the Y1 undub patch also made one for 2 to touch up the translation.

>>718344532
Shut up, bitch. Release order is the only valid order.

I've been playing the series well before that video existed and probably when you were in diapers. The video is a direct comparison between the original and kiwami using the exact same scenes. Kiwami is an absolute butcher job of the intended tone. Watch it if you actually want to know what you're talking about when you wander into these threads.

The dub is better.

Yeah I said it.

He acts like an actual Yakuza in this one and not some good hearted saint.

It's character development and you can tell this by Kiryus voice softening when he meets Haruka towards the end.

So yeah play it it's worth it

No. form your own opinions.
>I've been playing the series well before that video existed
Yes, I know you started playing since 0. but does that really matter?

That's not actually what happened, he wasn't replaced by an e-celeb, he was replaced by an Asian (Korean). I am not making this up, for the social brownie points they essentially preferred to do "they all rook the same" than have a better voice actor for Kiryu.

>>718348117
Is Yongyea Japanese?

>>718348364
No, he's Korean, I literally said that in the post.

>>718348117
>We hired a Korean-American to voice the Japanese character because Asians
Chances are a Japanese person would be more offended that they went out of their way to get a Korean than a more suitable voice actor regardless of ethnicity.

Play Yakuza Kiwami. It's a upgrade of the ps2 game.

Kiwami ruined Majima
