Too bad Kiwami is shit.
2 is a lot better than 1
I have heard kiwami is as good as 0
It's not, substories are much worse, story is worse, Majima everywhere was a failure, lacks some minigames etc. Also doesn't have anything like this:

You heard wrong.
It's a stripped down version of 0 with different cutscenes and enemies who don't play nice with the style system.
why are npcs like this? what kind of world are you living in where you don't know of the existence of yakuza
Majima Everywhere should have been a Premium Adventure thing.
Fucking PC fags leave my favorite series alone
It is not. I played Kiwami after 0 and it was pretty much a stripped down, visually boring version of Yakuza 0.
>he plays at 30fps
lmao
I played Kiwami, and will play this, and then pretend the rest of the franchise never happened.
Yakuza games are all on sales right now on playstation store and I've never touched that franchises. where do I start and which one should I buy? I don't really have the time to play all 7 but I was thinkg about buying 2 or 3 games for now.
2/4/5 > Kiwami
just play 0 dude, it's easily the best one in the whole series, and it's also the best entry point story wise
that's the right choice because the rest of the games are just "how can we get kiryu to do thing."
nah. Y0 is in my top 5 favorite games, I couldn't even finish Kiwami. If you want the Yakuza 1 story play the original. Haven't played 2 though so I can't comment on that
I played 0 a year ago and I'm currently halfway through Kiwami. This thread makes it sound worse than it is. It's fine.
Coming off 0 it just feels like I'm playing some pretty good 0 DLC or something.
I mean they definitely cheaped out on it compared to 0, but I guess they did that to make 0 better, which is fine overall.
>I don't really have the time to play all 7
Just play 0.
Kiwami 2/6 have a cool new engine but aren't as good.
if you want the best get 0, K2, 5, and Judgement
At least play 2. You can pretend Kiryu settled down with his policefu.
I've only played the ones on PC so far, and for me it's 0 = K2 > K1.

The Kiwami experience.
4 > 5
More content =/= better.
>halfway
Have fun with the colosseum and late game bosses, fag.
>block block block block block
That's the 3 experience. Kiwami is
>low level grunt gently taps you
>Kiryy falls flat on his ass
The game tanks around chapter 7.
5>4
More content with dogshit story>Dogshit story
You're forgetting the annoying as shit boss health regeneration mechanic
Bosses are nearly 3 levels of blocking, it's aggravating as fuck. I'm cool with them countering moves and blocking spam, but they don't interact with the 0 styles at all. Rush is awesome fun in 0's boss fights and a pain in Kiwami's.
> 4 > 5
Beyond based. 5 has been the second worst experience out of all these games
whelp
full disclosure I haven't touched it in 2 weeks after getting bogged down in the arena
I was still planning to pick it up again on the weekend and just skip that shit.
Been playing Kiwami and I've been loving it so far, so you guys are telling that 0 is like Kiwami but better?
Well paced and funny dogshit story + awesome substories > Horribly paced dogshit story with meh substories.
The substories and pacing are 4's greatest strengths. Also the underground actually felt good to explore and made going around Kamurocho more fun. Fuck the rooftops though, holy SHIT.
I'd completely forgotten that mechanic even existed, who thought it was a good idea.
>have to fight mad dog majima multiple times before the game lets you learn the specific attack to counter his health regen
those two redbros and the gunfags are possibly the worst fucking boss fights ever made
Yes, the setting is one of the reasons I like it a lot, and the game is full of charm, and great story
How is this not the entire franchise?
I beat 0, but I'm literally struggling to even make it halfway through Kiwami.
I'm very interested in the cast, but the gameplay is destroying me.
But it has this
youtu.be
But for real tho, Kiwami is underwhelming but it is a remake of a already rather underwhelming game.
Almost every substory is accessible in chapter 6, so just do that and bumrush the second half with an inventory full of Staminan Royales. The boss fights are annoying as fuck from this point on and the game spins its wheels hard. You're gonna want to get to Premium Adventure ASAP.
...
There's no way the PS2 version is more playable than Kiwami.
I think you're exaggerating / have nostalgia.
