Yakuza 3/Remastered is not without its issues but if you ever plan on playing it solo or on a series run please get this version and not the Remake

A reminder: this is an Irishman with valid papers speaking about how he's being held in US concentration camps. If you don't have to go to the US, do not go to the US. "GDC" is not "have to go". One denial at the border is going to mark you for life, and that's the best of the bad outcomes.
"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.

Romeo is a Dead Man is messy, oblique and sometimes old fashioned. However, those flaws paired with its constantly shifting art style, its singular weirdness, and the fact that it is just so god damn cool is what makes it deeply human.

If you're gonna read any quote from an article on the game, let it be this one, because I think it sums up a lot of the feelings of fans pretty succintly
![“In a word, it’s grief,” Yakuza/Like A Dragon Wiki “Chairman” Masu told me. “If you’re a longtime fan or even if you can see yourself becoming one, if the series has resonated with you, it’s hard to come to terms with the idea that maybe its driving principle of chivalry is just a power fantasy to be packaged and sold and not a sincerely-held belief. And if you’re a survivor like I am, it’s even harder to lose faith in creators you hoped were in your corner when most of the world isn’t. A lot of us are being forced to close a chapter in our lives [that] we never wanted to close.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fih2jbqfmjrza7yqgbtn5phi/bafkreigs7vvyitkf77yiu4ytu3cghqyojcmfqwajzktyymakgftxmjq434@jpeg)

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.

Anyways go buy the original Yakuza 3 on GOG so you own it forever before Sega delists it in a few days.
I haven't finished Yakuza Kiwami 3 so I'm hesitant to give a "final opinion" but also I think it says a lot I haven't been feeling the motivation to keep playing.
At its best its a low quality effort remake of a personal favorite from a series that has a high bar for remakes.

Excited to say I've been promoted to Associate Reviews Director at IGN! I'm now formally running the game reviews show from top to bottom.
As someone who grew up wanting to review games while reading stuff like IGN, Nintendo Power, and Game Informer, it's quite a surreal place to have found myself!

No because any black scholar, feminist scholar, (writer, thinker) could tell you it’s never been about gun rights, constitutionalism, states rights, or whatever other bs
The only consistent underlying ideology of the right is the violent and material oppression of marginalized people. Period.

The right is arguing that federal agents should be allowed to summarily execute you if you are carrying a firearm—after years of warning crazy people that federal agents would come and seize your guns.

Genuinely the only thing keeping me going—but it really is keeping me going—is how good it is to see people link arms and push for this to end.
I cannot stop thinking about how much love people can have for their neighbors, and how much work and money is poured into breaking that love apart.
