What games are y’all playing? Suggestions/Reviews/Thoughts? Hyped up for anything and want to share? I’ve been devouring Dragon Quest XI and Little Witch Nobeta, needed an RPG fix badly! DQ actually greatly benefits from whatever graphic engine they are using, the cartoony style for Toriyama design is great (although he keeps reusing the same faces/archetypes for everything). Nobeta actually harder than dark souls for me, I can’t parry to save my life and am still stuck at the second boss. Also picked up SinOAlice because why not, peeps are still in quarantine here anyway.
Also, can we get a Vidya tag, please?
I wonder if they already have Kiwami-ed the rest of them? They are sellling a Yakuza Remastered collection on PS4 now. I haven't bought it because I'm not ready to play 3-5 yet so I figure I'll wait for a better price.
The release order so far is:
Yakuza, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 0, Kiwami (remake) 1, Kiwami (remake) 2.
As far as I know, Kiwami 3 is up next, but I could see a Yakuza 0-sequel at some point. There are a few years between the end of Yakuza 0 and the events leading up to the original Yakuza, I think.
I wouldn't mind a Yakuza pre-prequel with the older generation, either. A game focused on Shintaro Kazama, Tsukasa Sagawa, and Masaru Sera could probably work, and it would allow for another change in setting - men in their 50s or 60s in the 1980s would have their gangster days in the 1950s, in a very different Japan.
