It's when you drink them to feel normal that you know you got a problem 😂. I used to drink so many a day. I stopped for months and the withdrawal in the first week was horrendous. I'm back on them now, but that's because I'm currently getting no sleep for weeks on end. Palpitations for the win init.

Ah I didn't realise that! What did you make of Romulus? I quite liked it. I can see why some people don't like it though.

Ah cool, I didn't realise it was picking up traction again. That's cool though. I'll definitely look into it though lol.

Ah that's so cool haha. It's got me feeling instantly nostalgic for it again. I'm big on physical media as a thing and like to collect things and movies are definitely one of those things for me, alongside games. I might hunt around for VHS players 😂. Though lack of CRT. I'll look into that after.

Great documentary. I love the fact you got VHS on the go too. Makes me want to buy a VHS player now and dig out some old tapes! I'm curious, do you have an old TV setup for it, or do you use some kind of converter for modern displays?

Solid IPs there. I'm all about that Yakuza/LAD. To the point of unhealthy obsession.

Ah yes, Yakuzatigue I call it. I guess this at least once a year hahaha. I remember playing 3 to 5 back to back and I was done for a while.

I literally joined yesterday. I had long abandoned twitter and saw this as a good opportunity to start over. I'm really enjoying it so far, it's like you say, chilled and slower - more laid back.

It was a shock to my system 😂 - having never played the originals back on PS2/PS3. My introduction to the series was Zero and I've been hooked ever since. But man, if any games deserves a touch of paint, it's definitely 3 haha.

It does! Though it's still not as polished as say Yakuza Zero. I started with this, then went to Kiwami and so on and by far, Yakuza 3 is probably the roughest. If I recall, Yakuza 5 is where it starts to play and feel more like Zero and Kiwami.

Agreed, growing up, this never felt like a focal point for me. It seems this is now a big deal to some. I'm what would be labelled as a "millennial", based on when I popped out me mum. It's silly, silly like avacodo toast init. Don't stereotype me and put me in a box mate.
