Yakuza: Like a Dragon gameplay livestream (NOW)
- Thread starter Son of Sparda
- Start date
Oh baby, let's do this. I'm very interested to see how the overall game flow looks with the new battle system. Maybe not something we'll be able to get a good feel for in a live demo, though, since presumably they'll be talking through each step of it.
The protagonist is as big change as the combat mechanics. It’s brave of Sega to go this direction, I hope it pays off for them.

Still lots of cutscenes, too much spoilers for me to handle. I'll watch the recorded version later so I can skip around.

First the Shenmue 3 stream with the actors for Ryo and Shenhua in costume and now Ichiban, where is Sonic's actor? or new Sakura's?
Anyone who is upset about the RPG mechanics is eating crow right now, it looks like the same game with HP AP and a leveling system tied to the current same exact combat system.
Translation issues and we don't get the same names all the time in the US.
It is being localized as Like a Dragon. It’s still Ryu ga Gotoku 7 in japan
Was that a character class system? And Ichiban's classes were Samurai, Host and Dancer?
Jo Amon's specialty.

Amon's been doing that since Yakuza 3. I'm not surprised Ichiban gets it in a game with summons.
How is it the "same combat system" if I'm not inputting combos and moves etc and just choosing from a menu....
Anyway, gameplay looks fun so far, i want some showfloor footage asap :)
Edit- just watching the combat live. Still seems a bit too slow, drawn out etc, plus lack of skill based/action based means no dodging attacks or blocking (?). I'm definitely more interested in giving it a go though, things like the guy getting hit by a car during combat look great.
I dont unterstand a single word. In combination with some scenes looking ridiculous, this feels like an April's Fool. Yet I do look forward to this game
It seems to be Bouncer/ Bodyguard (Yojimbo), Host and Dancer so far
I am SO IN. Most fun-looking, eye-catching RPG system I've fallen in love with since Paper Mario.
