Oh hey, do the Judgment games go on sale as often as the main Yakuza games do? I'll want to pick up Lost Judgment at some point as well. Any of the DLC worth it?

I'll be buying a new game next week, can only get one. I was dead set on getting a new Switch game because I really need to beef up my Switch library before I start hating the damn thing, then I found out Yakuza: Like a Dragon Hero Edition is on sale and it'll end next week, and now I don't know what to do. On the one hand, even the base game is still a bit pricy for me so I'll really be kicking myself if I don't jump on that sale, but on the other hand I really do need to get a new Switch game before I get burned out on the two games I do have. So how often does YLAD specifically go on sale anyway? Still got a whole 4 games to get through before I can even look at YLAD and these games aren't exactly short on content.

It's pretty easy to see. When you attack enemies they block 100% of the time in front. After 3 hits, they counter attack. It's a pattern that occurs and once you see it, it's easy to 100% beat every fight without any real issue. Attack 3 times, they attack back, you dodge behind them and destroy them. Once I saw this the game became much more manageable.

I understand this is how you're intended to fight in Yakuza 3, but legitimate question; what am I supposed to do when bosses instantly turn around and start blocking as soon as I try to punish them from behind? Just eat shit until I learn Komaki Parry? I've seen people claim that Tamashiro was hard when I thought he was easy, but Rikiya was an absolute pain in the ass cause he wouldn't let me punish him properly.

And his hamburger story was A+ material.

Yeah I'll give him that at least, I still look that scene up for a laugh sometimes. And to be fair (haven't played DR1 in a while so IIRC) wasn't there that one point in the story where he kind of tries to step up as a leader/morale booster? So not a completely terrible person I guess. It's mostly his last Free Time Event where I just can't stand his existence anymore. Oh and Chapter 4 I guess, he was pretty shitty there too. So was Toko/Genocide Jill to be fair, but Hiro drew first blood in that scenario so fuck 'im.

Now that you're past the part where Yasuhiro makes you prove that Kyoko isn't a ghost, do you agree with the obviously right opinion that Yasuhiro is the worst character?

Yasuhiro is legitimately the one DR1 character I hated more after doing all his Free Time Events. I don't even hate Hifumi as much as I hate Yasuhiro, fuck that guy in particular.

Ah. Ok. Y0 is my blindspot. I only played like 10-15 hours of it. I guess they decided to make the younger version more sexually motivated. I guess, with that. We could just theorize he became more reserved and mature about it as he aged.

Man you gotta finish Y0, it's such a great game. Kiwami 1 was my first, but I adore 0. Can't really blame Kiryu for getting more reserved as the years go on, can't be easy to have a stable love life when he keeps getting pulled back into Yakuza drama.

That's the most asexual way someone could talk about sex lol. It's like it was just any other activity. Like he would just do it cause it's what she wanted and he was fine with it. But there was literally no sexual excitement on his end. You can be asexual and not have a broken dick.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoBzO79FAT0

He was literally fantasizing about having sex though? And one of the side activities is him jacking it to videos of scantily clad women? Romantically interested in two women in the first two games? Kiryu likes women dude, literally not asexual at all.

What I have:

Devil May Cry 3
The Tenth Line

My semi-basic bitch wishlist:

Metroid Dread
Coffee Talk
Haven (will probably buy on PS4)
Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Definitive Edition
Fire Emblem Three Houses (is the DLC worth it?)
Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2
Octopath Traveler
Breath of the Wild (is the DLC worth it?)
Super Mario Odyssey
Star Ocean First Departure R (getting this on PS4)
Monster Sanctuary
Spirit of the North

Anti-wishlist (games I'm explicitly not interested in getting):

Dark Souls/Soulslikes: I don't like being punished with death over a single mistake, it's just not for me man. I play games to unwind, not be stressed out.
First/Third Person Shooters: Already not my favored genres, and definitely not something I want to play in handheld mode because I haven't bothered with setting up the dock yet.
Danganronpa: Already have the visual novels on PS4 and Danganronpa S just doesn't look interesting to me.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons: Played the GameCube game a while back for nostalgia reasons, so hot take incoming, I think the dialogue peaked when some personality types were allowed to be rude to you. Also I learned I don't like games that feel like a daily obligation anymore.
Pokemon: I'm so burned out on this franchise that I still haven't cared enough to finish a Gen 7 game. Someone @ me when Spike Chunsoft is allowed to make a new Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game. And on that note...
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX: I didn't like the story when I watched a let's play, and I don't care enough to experience a story I already don't like first-hand just because it has a shiny new coat of paint.

So uh, clearly I already have a solid grasp on what type of games I like and don't like, I just need recommendations for games I might not have heard of or games I just don't remember actually being on Switch.

Foxtail
https://tapas.io/series/Foxtail/info

Came for the foxgirl, stayed for the humor, now I'm emotionally invested in the characters. Hope it updates soon, I was a little sad when I saw it hasn't updated since January, it's a pretty fun comic with characters that make me laugh sometimes!

The Ink Apprentice
https://tapas.io/series/The-Ink-Apprentice/info

Gonna be real with you, I don't actually know where the main plot is going right now. But the artwork is pretty and the few characters that have been introduced have a really fun dynamic. It's just fun to look at whenever it updates.

Bichi Mao
https://tapas.io/series/Bichi-Mao/info

It's a cute cat comic that makes me cry sometimes. Doesn't really have a main plot, it's mostly standalone comics.

Oh buddy are you missing out. Yakuza 0 is a fantastic game, easily the most fun I've ever had while being emotionally kicked in the dick. The entirety of chapter 1's climax is really freaking hype, honestly most of this game's major fights are really freaking hype too, and when the story wants you to feel emotions other than pure testosterone badassery it really makes you feel those emotions. My first game was actually Kiwami 1, but 0 really cemented my love for the series and sent me on a single-minded campaign to buy most of the main games up to 6. I'm on Kiwami 2 right now and still having a blast. Definitely get started on this series when you have time.

It's a bit too much reading for me, but it's some good scifi.

Both of these links gave me a page not found screen so I had to go to the home page and look 'em up myself, so that was weird. I'll check 'em both out though!

Since I also mentioned liking Yakuza 0, any good crime dramas you could recommend? Having the goofy juxtaposition of tone between serious main plot and hilarious subplots would be a welcome bonus, but not a hard requirement.

By DLC I of course mean extra downloadable content, haha. I plan on buying Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology, Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies and Spirit of Justice, and Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns. At the very least I'll put the latter 3 games down for having what I'd consider "essential" DLC, what I'm most hung up on I guess is whether or not Radiant Historia's DLC is worth it, especially considering it's a remake of what I assume was considered an already complete game as it was. And while I was easily able to just look up how many blocks were needed for the games themselves, I can't find anything on how much is needed for the DLC. As far as Radiant Historia's DLC is concerned I'm also really only interested in whatever adds new sidequest scenarios. So for anyone who does have the DLC for these games, how many blocks does the DLC take up? I've already worked out that I'll have 3,386 blocks leftover, so if the amount of DLC I want ends up taking up more than that I'll have to buy a new SD card which I don't particularly want to have to deal with.

For some reason I was obsessed with renting Evergrace just because of the boxart when I was a young little brat. Then when I did finally get a chance to play it I didn't understand what to actually do in the game so my goopy goblin little kid brain almost immediately lost interest, lol.

My issue with remakes is that in the games industry they're used to replace the original rather than compliment it. Demon's Souls didn't get a remake because Sony had something creative to say with the property. It was remade because they wanted to cash in on the franchise name but didn't want to deal with the rights issues tied to the original. We will never see another official release of the original Demon's Soul on future consoles cause Sony got their new shiny version with no kerfuffle to just fart out every generation now.

Will we ever see an official port of the original non-shitty Spyro PS1 games rather than the crappy remakes? Certainly more likely than the Demon's Souls situation. Maybe on the Playstation 7. But probably not.

Remakes in video games is essentially a cancer to video game preservation and appeals to some lame desire that apparently exists within the gamer culture to replace rather than preserve. At least in the movie industry remakes tend to actually do things different than the original film they're based on, and if they don't, they tend to get shit on (see: Gus Van Sant's Psycho remake). In gaming there's some sort of weird fetishization that a remake has to be "exactly" the same game as the original, but with shinier graphics and probably some control or camera updates to erase all trace of it not being a brand spanking new game. As if PS1 graphics are not part of the charm and identity of something like Crash Bandicoot.

Your Yakuza example is actually the opposite to me. I want to get into the Yakuza series, but I'm not going to until some way to play the original games is available to me, be it by Sega actually porting them instead of just replacing them with the new remakes (which will likely never happen), or I get a hold of a PS2 and play them on that, which is definitely way in the future.

Honestly, while I have no intention of playing the FF7 remake until the whole thing is out, the fact that it actually does things to the story structure of the original game (even if Sephiroth showing up in Midgar is a decision motivated entirely by how absurd it would be to release FF7 media without Sephiroth in it to cash in on the Sephiroth fanbase, rather than any creative narrative decision they have for the character) and has a gameplay system that sets it apart makes it one of the more compelling video game remakes in, well, ever to me.

Fair enough, I respect that you put actual thought into your position. Your Spyro example really resonated with me in particular. The remakes were my first real exposure to that series as well and while I actually do enjoy the remakes, I was also curious enough to try the PS1 versions, and I actually ended up preferring how the PS1 games handled. Movement just felt so much tighter in those games, made me feel more in control of where I was actually going, especially while swimming and flying. And Bentley's persistent over the shoulder camera in the 3rd game's remake? That was completely unbearable, especially when it didn't change for a certain minigame that would have really benefitted from a more revealing camera angle.

None. Fuck remakes.

What's actually wrong with remakes though? I never would have played the first two Yakuza games if they weren't remade, and while I have played Odin Sphere on PS2, the remake version is so much better that I could never go back even if I wanted to.

I haven't seen this in modern games at all, but back in the day it really bothered me when a game kept track of how many times you saved. It always felt like the game was being needlessly passive-aggressive about how many times you had to save to beat the game.

Another thing that bothers me more recently as someone who has shit to do outside the game is when you pause the game, but the in-game playtime is still counting up and there's no way to fully pause the game to stop the playtime from counting up while not actually playing.

AND ANOTHER THING is when a forced tutorial forces you to use resources in a way that you don't want to use them yet. No Fire Emblem, I don't want to promote Wallace in Lyn Mode. No Persona 5, I don't want to fuse anything when I haven't had a chance to register my Personas yet!

It's very fun! And it does have guns, but the only acceptable time to use them is when farming Mr. Shakedown for money after already proving you can kick their asses with an incomplete moveset.
