| The first one is getting a remake the end of August on the PS4 so it's worth waiting for that and zero doesn't spoil anything, so it's a great drop in point rather than going back to play the worst aged iteration of the series.
Yakuza is essentially a game in the spirit of Shenmue but ends up being a lot like River City Ransom as well. The series has always been great and Yakuza 2 might be the best but it's really hard to say. Essentially it's a action RPG where you get into random street fights and also you do whatever fucking random shit the developers decided would be fine this includes but isn't limited to darts, watching porno, karaoke, looking for sparkling shit on the ground, or fighting people. The game is just incredibly dense and really fun and that's all there is to it. There's also a pretty good crime drama baked into the space you make to play the main story between playing UFO catchers and fishing. http://nichegamer.com/2015/08/29/top-japanese-game-devs-talk-aaa-games-ps4-and-the-future-of-the-japanese-games-industry/ The Yakuza series is first and foremost a game for Japan, so you can’t pin all your hopes and dreams on such a Japanese game. The real tragedy of this series is that it's a game that everyone should like but Sega has been convinced that it's for Japanese people and does next to nothing to advertise or hype up the games, beside the first game which was billed as "Japan's Grand Theft Auto" which is ridiculous since it's a much better game. Yakuza is a fantastic game that does the kind of shit that every other RPG hybrid tries at and fucking fails and for some reason Sega has just decided that as few people as possible should play it. I don't think there is a single action RPG that has come out in years that is better than them. |
