And I GUESS, because people seem to fucking forget:
I have spent the last decade covering the FUCK out of this series. Almost EVERY SINGLE VIDEO I've done for Yakuza is full of well-balanced, well-evidenced critique. If you can't see that, you're being ignorant.

It only becomes more clear as time goes by that all of the series issues have only tripled since the exit of Nagoshi and the original Amusement Visions staff in 2021. An already growing wave turned into a flood once they were gone.

If you think that Yokoyama image that's going around is absolutely wild, I highly encourage you to go read more of his interview quotes in the last few years for a rollercoaster of a ride. And if you REALLY want to be even MORE confused, go check out interviews from 10-15 years ago.

HOW DOES IT KEEP GETTING WORSE
What's further upsetting about the removal of that substory in Yakuza 3 is that the character model for Ayaka (and her voice) were the likeness of the VERY REAL transwoman Ayana Tsubaki. So the game just erased an actual trans woman.

My friends introduced me to YAPYAP today. It's a game where you cast spells by saying them out loud, and the goal is to invade a wizard's tower and cause as much property damage as possible within a time limit.

Survival crafting games will let you build amazing houses, but god forbid they ever give you decent furniture options. Y'all GOTTA get an interior decorator to look over your in-game setting and aesthetic, so they can consult you about furniture ideas.

I think it bears repeating that I don't sub or vague post about people I know. I'm almost always posting about shit I see on in the Internet in mass.
When I wanna talk shit about someone, I just tell it to @cullenforever.bsky.social 's face directly.

Some folks don't like art. They just like keeping busy. Probably to avoid thinking about the stuff that inspires art in the first place. Damn shame.

Hey everyone, just wanna let you know that ROMEO IS A DEADMAN releases the same day, is $10 cheaper and is an original game.
Review: Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties is a remake built on disdain, not reverence, looking to fix a game that wasn’t broken, and ending up with little to show for itself.

If I sound like a downer sometimes, it's because I'm 38 and I see everything coming at least a year away.

Forums are nostalgic to people of exactly my age, but I think they just have a different combination of the weaknesses of chat clients and social media. I think what ppl miss is having a small, close-knit community, and that's increasingly hard to replicate as corpos own it all.

Big feature about the #RemoveKagawa movement and fans feeling that the bloom has been off the rose for the Yakuza/Like A Dragon games, with this latest controversy being a last straw for many.

Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties Review - Short Fangs
Kiwami 3 is the boldest remake of the series to date, but it makes for an uneven retelling that threatens to taint the series' legacy in the process.

I often hear people, even people I respect asserting that the RGG series is all wacky all the time and has always been and it's like
Yeah bro you can tell they were having a laugh a minute writing the scene with Nishikiyama and Kiryu in the woods in Yakuza 0. Not a serious bone in that office.
