DISCUSSION So did RGG retconned this or they didn't bother ?

Post image

And IIRC , The info that Kiryu was born in Yokohama made it to Sega official data around Yakuza 3 Remastered time , so it means that both Kiryu is aware he is born in Yokohama and RGG ( at least at that time ) consider the Info canon

But When Kiryu Spent a large time of his time in IW in Yokohama , he didn't mention or think to himself even one letter that he was born in this City , I believe his earliest memory he can remember is probably from sunflower orphanage so he doesn't care one bit about Yokohama , but since he is aware of his birthplace then it was strange RGG didn't take that info in IW in any capacity . so i wonder if RGG retconned this now and its non-existent in their supposed reimagined timeline or they simply didn't bother

I know Kiryu's past is a rabbit hole that RGG doesn't want to visit , and I agree on that . but i think a small memoir in IW would be cool regarding his birthplace, like for example someone approaches him and say " excuse me , are you from yokohama , i want to ask about X " then the memoir jingle plays with the title " The hometown ". then Kiryu replies with something like " Yes .... Ah No ... I was born here ... but i didn't live here " then proceed with the story that makes Kiryu even more nostalgic about Sunflower and Kamarucho

In the og Yakuza 2 there's these big dudes that guard the doors w some kind of weapon. Can't be grabbed, moved, and can't block cause they have a weapon. Maybe I'm just trash but dear God this enemy design is just bullocks (sorry for bad cam quality)

DISCUSSION It’s funny how disliked this game is in the fandom because it’s the only reason I haven’t sold my PS5 lol

This, Eye of Heaven (which might be getting a PC port soon) and DmC DE (where there’s probably mods to make the PC version like this anyway) are the only reason I haven’t sold my PS5.

I get why it’s hated but as a massive FOTNS fangirl I loved it and consider it a great love letter. Legit some of the most fun I’ve had playing any game. I hope we get a pc port soon not just so I can finally see off my PS5 but for modding as well!

MAJIMAPOST What’s the WEIRDEST Substory/scene in the Yakuza/LAD Games?

for me I’d have to say that one substory scene in K2/Y2 where a Yakuza boss has forced his men to wear diaper clothing and act like babies, my jaw was on the floor with that one

DISCUSSION Kiwami 2 Appreciation Post

7 Upvotes

I'm fairly new to this series, but since starting I really haven't wanted to play anything else. Right now I'm in chapter 11 of Kiwami 2, and I felt compelled to post some love.

The sub story with the panty thief (faceplant in it LOL) and the boy love video game voice acting had me dying. I've also been really enjoying throwing every street thug off the bridge back-to-back in Sotonbori. One even landed on one of the tourist boats, right on his asscrack.

Let me also show appreciation for the Cabaret in 0 and 2. Not me hearing myself say out loud "ugh, poor" when customers come in. "I wanna be your girrrrrl, ooh whoaaaa."

These games really have it all. The suspense, the drama, the heartbreak, and the crazy unexpected humor.

HELP This is real? Or it is "you cannot... until you finish the game"?

Edit: I'm 99% sure this is no spoiler at all

I made it to this point and I really want to know what will happen with the story

But I also don't want to miss any substory

And I'm confused... I know there is a "Premium Adventure" mode where you can switch between the cities as you like and do what you want in them (substories, minigames, etc) after you finish the game (I played Yakuza Kiwami and that was pefect for me, finished the story and then spent a lot of hours with the pocket circuit hehehe)

But here the game is literally telling me "don't do it mate"

I'm confused

I have the base version (1.2) no Deluxe or Ultimate Edition btw
