Realistic asian masculinity vs delusion

>>719253687 (OP)
The bottom one was never supposed to be "realistic" though

>>719253687 (OP)
Yeah Kiyru fights two tigers at once, of course it’s a fucking delusion

>>719253687 (OP)
Wei shen is literally more masculine tho
Kiryu is bigger but he's a pussy cuck

>>719253687 (OP)
wait
asians don't actually have magical powers???

Wei Shen's game failed to sell. That's why he only has 1 game while Kiryu has over 10.

Kyriu is a massive cuck

>>719253687 (OP)
Yes, that's why they brought in Yagami.

>>719254610
He's both, lol

>>719253687 (OP)
Wei shen has brutally murdered people without hesitation, kiryu doesn't even kill people except accidentally

>>719253687 (OP)
very true

Sleeping Dogs is kind of like a movie with realistic acting
Yakuza is more like an anime

>>719253687 (OP)
wei is a badass

Both franchises suck but Sleeping dogs is especially shit.

>>719255119

The acting in sleeping dogs is absolute dogshit outside of Wei, immersion is also totally ruined by the fact that they all speak an horrible blend of english and cantonese

>>719255265
>immersion is also totally ruined by the fact that they all speak an horrible blend of english and cantonese
That's realistic for hong kong though

Who the hell is the guy at the top?

>>719254610
yagami is so cool, I want to be more like him
on top of that he canonically fucks unlike forever oneitis kiryu

>>719253687 (OP)
Wei isn't even Asian.

>asian masculinity

>>719255265
The game takes place in Hong Kong and that's literally how people speak there since it's still somewhat of a British colony.

>>719255352
kiryu isn't jomon LOL more like mongolian

>>719253687 (OP)
actual kiryu looks like a realistic asian guy, nu-yakuza is just shit

>>719254610
How old is this guy? He looks 30-40.

Chad "I fought the law and the law won" vs Virgin "Baka Mitai"

Does Yakuza also have weird vestigial gun mechanics that are pretty much never used for most of the game?

>>719255620
He's 38 in his last game but motion capped by a guy in his 50s

Could be worse. Majima's two most well known songs are one about how much he loves a woman and another about how he's totally fine with that woman not loving him

>>719254610
looks like a shitty j-drama actor
the living proof of these games being made for women now

>>719255749
I like how he included some images of actual sleeping dogs

>>719255620
The actor himself was 46 back in 2018

>>719255858
This was Nagoshi's last major project with RGG. And he chose Japan's "sexiest man alive" for it. Downright peculiar

Sleeping dogs and 龍が如く are both fun But it's sad that the latter got no sequels or nothing. Can I please get a captcha what the fuck is wrong with this site.

pork buns aren't even that good

I think the Yakuza games play better than Sleeping Dogs (though Sleeping Dogs is also fun), but a big thing that bothers me about Yakuza is the no kill rule. It makes the games feel juvenile despite being games about organized crime.

I think you're out of touch.

>>719255497
Yeah he looks exactly like Keanu Reeves

>>719254610
My favorite part about him is that his argument against vigilantes is not his parents who were brutally murdered when he was a teenager but a woman he knew for like two weeks being murdered

United Front is dead and Square Enix has no interest in any of their Western IPs anymore. Sold most of them off even.
Sleeping Dogs will never get a sequel.

Japs say that Kiryu doesn't look like a jap at all and he's probably some immigrant bastard.

>>719262761
I didn't say official sequel
I just want more games like that

>>719253747
Tons of people miss this point about a lot of Japanese games (sometimes, I suspect, intentionally).

Kiryu will never be in a Fighting game because he doesn't fight girls.
Not even in Virtua Fighter.
What a White Knight.
Jesus Christ.

hopefully we get a new MC in the next game
they ruined ichiban and kiryu was always shit
I don't care if Ichiban is still the new guy, make him a side character or some shit, im bored of him

>>719262571
He looks more realistic with his hair down in Y8, but he's supposed to be a human God. A man that stands out amongst the crowd that everybody reveres and fears.

>>719262919
Kiryu slaps at least 2 women off the roof my my head

>>719253687 (OP)
Kiryu is a gary stu with no real personality

>>719254610
I have a filipino friend who looks like this

>>719253687 (OP)
Wei is more masculine, Kiryu literally gets cucked by an American and his adopted daughter grows up to be a whore, he's also a tranny enabler.

>>719263294
>>719253894
this

>>719253687 (OP)
Wei sleeps with white girls, which is way more unrealistic than anything Kiryu has done

>>719262828
This. His facial features are too European.
Is there any mention of his parents' past at all besides Kazama killing them? I don't recall.
He could be the child of an American stationed in Japan during the reconstruction after WWII.

>>719263235
Now post the real one.

>>719255187
Yo Wei last year I Bond burgered your sister!
>Wei gets mad

>>719263294
He was orbiting a literal prostitute, even Majima made fun of it in the very opening of Y1. Then in Y0 it was Kiryu who proposed that Yumi should come and work as a hostess for Reina.
Also mandatory reminder that he was really upset about Riona not wanting to date Mitsuo because he's half-nigger.

>>719263147
>everybody reveres and fears
Random thugs keep picking fights with him.

>>719263559
Thank you.

>>719263483
>Is there any mention of his parents' past at all besides Kazama killing them? I don't recall.
Nothing at all. But if Kazama was ordered to kill them, it means they were threatening Dojima in some way. Either they were criminals affiliated with some rival organization, or they were wealthy civilians who had the means of resisting the protection racket.

>>719262919
Wasnt it just nagoshi that was pretty firm about that or are they stlil going to respect his wishes anyway?

>>719263483

It's Jomon features, ancient Japanese people were European. Ghengis Khan was a red haired celt.

He just eats a lot of Smile Burger which at some point will turn his hair blonde like the bad guy from Yakuza 2. Trvst thv plvn

>>719253687 (OP)
Sleeping Dogs was simply too good. Yea, the combat sometimes felt like a cheaper knock off of Arkham Asylum, but the game was still fantastic.

>>719263958
It's my favourite GTA-like

Now that we started talking about facial features... Anyone else thinks Saejima looks kind of Mongol?

Yep it's definitely a Jap delusion

>>719263958
Square Enix was really knocking it out of the park on the Western front back then.
Sleeping Dogs, Deus Ex Human Revolution, even Tomb Raider's first reboot was pretty good for an Uncharted knock off.

>>719264213
wtf, they brought nishiki back??

>>719264118
No, Mongols have fat heads with tiny eyes.

What do you think happens in all those fade to black moments at the end of hostess dates?

Kiryu is the type of guy to protect random tranny strangers with his life even if he has never met them before

>muh realism
Who cares

>>719265006
Kiryu is also the type of guy to demolish a whole city district and ruin countless people's lives just because he's looking for a whore's child.

>>719265134
Since the Yakuza devs try to recreate Kabukichō 1:1 and facescan 90% of their characters, I'd say they do.

>>719265006
well i mean, one of them is a cucked jap "man"
and the other one is a chinese guy who grew up in america

>>719265006
>>719265074
Kiryu is the type of guy to raise another man's child free of charge then let her get impregnated by the Chinese Triad and further end up risking his own life to save her child from her own fuckups.

>>719264404
According to producer Masayoshi Yokoyama, Kiryu is a virgin. Makes sense because he turns down girls in the main story. Which means the side content dates are not canon.

>>719265006
Lol
Man I miss those gore executions, I need to replay sleeping dogs

OKAY FINE FINE
FUCK

>>719253687 (OP)
I'm so hyped for this

>>719265420
>Which means the side content dates are not canon
Strange, because side content often gets continuations in future games. So I guess just the hostess dates aren't canon? Because even Yagami remembers Tsukiko in Lost Judgement and fondly reminisces about fucking her, but then again, she's not a hostess.

I FAWT DA RAW
AND DA...
RAW WAN

>we will never have another sleeping dogs again
>even if we did it would probably be sanitazed as hell

>>719253747
i mean they have accurate looking japanese actors in the games so it's not like they're not going for realism

>>719265574
Even Han Joo Gi (the original one from 6) made fun of Kiryu and other japs for paying to just talk to hosts and hostesses without being able to lay a finger on them.

>>719265586
It was a different time. The last moment before the modern woke era.
Even the 2014 "definitive" edition had censorship like making it so you cannot find female NPCs at night.

>>719266056
Someya's statement comes after 5 so it's clearly more real.

>>719265623
Yeah, and it was a fucking MISTAKE because actual japs look inherently lame.

hong kong 97 remake when?

>>719265574
Even the song Baka Mitai is alluding to Kiryu. It's basically the women's POV describing his thick headed and prude demeanor.

>>719266147
The best face scan character might have been DD in Dead Souls. You just know that troon is the real villain from the first glance.

This. He better murder at least half a dozen people canonically, or I'm not buying.
So sick of this "good natured criminal" shtick.

>>719266409
For more than a decade it was repeated that Nagoshi is the one who imposed the no murder and no violence against women rules. But he's been gone for years now and not only we're not seeing any deviations from these rules, the rest of violence was turned into cartoon bullshit. All the way from Yakuza 3 showing you thugs being badly bruised and missing teeth after a fight to weightless ragdolls that fly several yards and schizo imagination bombing people with orbital cannons.

The most aura-maxxed character in the franchise

>>719266692
Nagoshi was keeping the series sane. He had some stupid ideas and rules, but he still understood what made for a good crime drama. With Yokoyama at the helm, it's only going to get worse.

>>719266409
His game might have at least two endings or some sort of morality meter. seeing how you can spare or kill enemies.

>>719266692
The new guy killed people in the STH gameplay trailer 2bf

>>719266836
>morality meter
What is this, 2007?

>>719266818
More like the most forced character in the franchise. Not tough, not cool, keeps flipflopping and yet he's always shoved in our face like some great villain

>>719267017
He will be the mastermind of Yakuza 9.

>>719266043
what the fuck is that the actual snoop
guy does any job for 3.50, are things that bad at RGG

>>719265623
They did this for marketing purposes. The same reason Kojima is filling his shit games with celebs

>>719266874
Kiryu kills or renders quadriplegic almost everyone he uses heat actions on, but he's the good guy, ok?

Is this a Yakuza thread or a Sleeping Dogs thread?

>>719267206

>>719267404
0 wasn't made with international audiences in mind. The original Ishin also has some locally famous actors playing Kondo and Hanpeita.

>>719267194
it is actually snoop dog, yeah.
they face scanned him into the game and got him to apparently rap some parts of the soundtrack or something like that. he will show up eventually at some point in-game, though we don't know when and to what extent.

>>719267507
He barely even looked like Danny Trejo. He was way to big to be him. I honestly didn't even know it was him until after I played.

How face blind are you? He looks exactly like Danny Trejo, is voiced by him in the English dub, and he uses machetes which are a staple of Danny Trejo.
