Yakuza: Like a Dragon TGS trailers (Gameplay + western story trailer)
- Thread starter Son of Sparda
- Start date
Kokekokko - yep that is nugget :)
Both are licensed and therefore almost certainly won't be used. So, no offence but those picks were only ever setting yourself up for disappointment. I'd love to get Scud Racer and Daytona 2, but that was never happening either.
More realisticly I wanted Monkey Ball and Spikeout, games which don't actually have licensing to get in the way of things. We might see more arcade games revealed later, Judge Eyes did after all, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
I just wish they'd take that, the semi sequel they included in 4 and Gunrhein (in 5) and plop them into this. No need to add anything, I just love those games loads. I was really disappointed when 5 only featured Gunrhein.
Yeah I know about the licenses, I would have liked if they replaced the licensed stuff with different fictional models like what they did in Outrun 1. This way they would future proof the games and be able to rerelease them without issues.
This game looks so good but not knowing if I'm going to like it sucks!
The logo is interesting. Makes me think they want to push away the "Yakuza" and may call the next one Like A Dragon 2.

Haven't played any RPGs with job systems before so I was surprised by that.
Alright, I'm sold. I was apprehensive about the changes when it was announced but those story and gameplay trailers are amazing.
18 years later ... looks exactly the same. Love it!
I just started playing Kiwami 2 (my first Yakuza game) and I am super excited for this.

Yeah, I'm not really liking the look of the combat still, so I'll just hope we see some classic brawler Yakuza with Judgment or future sequels.
Everything else looks pretty good though.

you should also start a youtube series comparing the real life location to the game versions.
then stream the games on twitch....
keep the memes alive.

Feeling better about the combat changes after seeing this and the trailers.
Looks extremely not for me. I'd still get it since I'm a Yakuza fan and everything apart from the combat looks amazing...but I just don't like not being in control and not moving around fast all over the place doing whatever I want at any given time. I really hate the changes more and more with every new clip I see.
LMAO - I will - Ill also spam you endlessly until you admit my videos are the greatest.
Looks great and looking forward to trying the new fighting system. It also has a space laser so can't wait to check it out.
That's probably too much effort for a mini game for another game. Only reason Outrun 1 was included in its edited form was because the work was done ages ago in previous ports. Its extra time and work the devs probably don't have going by how tight the deadlines on the games seem to be. Or maybe they don't want to edit them (as no other ports of stuff like Sega Rally have been done in ages). Who knows, either way I'd not get any hopes up for licensed games to appear in any Yakuza game, current or future.
This all looks incredible!
I hope the Kart Racing has a storyline to it, with an antagonist and a bunch of quests.

That dude was heinous
Very true.
I will settle for a Golden Axe Revenge of Death Adder then!
Hopefully Yakuza 8 has it.
Ryu Ga Gokart for sure. I loved the taxi missons in 5 so this looks like my thing so much.
I have yet to play a single Yakuza game but by the gods it looks like they turned the knob to 11 on this. Crazy!
I mean, where the heck is the port on that game? Hopefully the Sega Ages event this week has it as a port is way overdue (should have happened on the Saturn dammit). I'd love Planet Harriers as well, though I get the feeling that's a rather niche game that me and 10 other people are asking for.
I heard they were going to make a port for the saturn but dropped it due to the Dreamcast. I hate life sometimes...
As for other games they should bring, Give me Dynamite Deka and Zombie Revenge for that brawler goodness!
Never played Planet Harries. I might have to change that when I get the time.
Looks amazing, I'm sold. Although I am slightly concerned about the story repeating familiar tropes. Also, 18 years in prison and he doesn't change at all lol. I know I shouldn't be surprised and it's almost like a defining aspect of Japanese characters, but still.
They showed different clothes for different "jobs".
It will probably end up being like the classic Final Fantasy where they have different outfits depending on what job you use.
After.
The series is pretty crazy with it's plot twists so who knows if that is him or not.
I saw that (and it looks very cool), but I'm talking more about being able to find and buy gear that you can equip that'll give you passive stat boosts and other bonuses (like inmunities to status effects and stuff like that). Like in your traditional Final Fantasies and such.
You mean helmets and stuff?
I heard something along that line but I forgot where. It is very possible it is in.
Everything looks great. Still worried about it being an RPG. I wonder if this is their attempt to actually rebrand Yakuza in the west to get more market appeal? So the next game will be Yakuza: Like a Dragon 2.
That sort of stuff, yeah! Hope it's in, it won't be a proper JRPG to me if I can't obtain gamebreaking gear through trickery and/or grinding.
Equippable gear like that is in yeah, you always had that stuff in old Yakuza games and they've confirmed you can get gear by buying it (and Kamiyama's modding is probably back).
Well you summon characters via your phone, and most are "normal" characters you meet in the game - several of which are nods to past characters in the series (Nugget, Diaper Guy, Ono Michio, GBH) but some are... strange indeed.
Does the story trailer contain any Yakuza series spoilers? I only played through 0, Kiwami and Kiwami 2 so far.
Thanks, I've seen some... familiar faces in the gameplay trailer so I was scared lol
