Nice to see the game get some recognition. It most definitely deserves it.

Sorry if this wasn't thread worthy.

Great. It's my GOTY so far. I'm at chapter 11 now and doing all the side content as it unlocks.

I've always wondered how games that have staggered release dates get considered for awards. Does it just encompass everything released since the last award ceremony?

Judgment (Judge Eyes) came out back in December but then had that fiasco with Pierre Taki that caused it to get pulled from shelves/re-released.

Golden Joysticks is UK based so they are using the Western release date.

It's... September...

Edit: it's my favorite game of the year so far, and I voted for it without hesitation, but nevertheless it's September

Eh, I didnt care for it. The detective portions were tedious and unfun. The story was cliched and lacked much of the campus goofy of the main series. Also this is like the 6th ps4 yakuza game which uses the exact same map and engine. It's getting old.

That only happened for the Japanese release. The western version just came out 2 months ago.

Next Yakuza release which is called Yakuza: Like a Dragon will take place in an entirely new city and feature a completely new turn based combat style.

I know. I'm excited and looking forward to it. Hopefully, the turned based combat will be rich and deep enough to compliment the dense environments these games are known for.

Is the game better than yakuza? I haven't started yet, kind of hoping for a pc release...

Congratulations to the team! The first 40% was a bit of a slog, but things are really picking up now. Definitely top tier work by RGS!

Ah, my game of the year... 2018 that is, I was as always too impatient to wait for its release and picked up the Japanese version. Its a great game, and I doubt anything will come close to Yakuza 7 being my GOTY next year (and yes, I am aware what else is out next year).

What a phenomenal trajectory RGG Studio have been on for the last few years. Amazing. Glad to see it. Now release Judgement on PC please so I can play it.

Man, I wish it was for me, as a big Yakuza fan. But it wasn't; in fact, it was a huge disappointment that I had to force myself to finish (I need to stop doing that). I would have to go with RE2 for my GOTY.
