Yakuza: Like a Dragon (PS4/PS5/XB1/XSX/PC)

[Kingshango]

New protagonist looks good but going from brawler to turn based RPG?

 

[Wiles]

Why not action rpg at least



Turn based? Imma try it I guess

*edit

The video actually looks dope tho imma cop day 1

Nikkas crying in the comments
I love turn based

 

[AnotherRoute]

I know I am going to cop regardless..., but damn man why get rid if brawling

 

[The Mad Titan]

That's a radical switch, but I happen to love both so I'm good.

This tells me Yakuza is really picking up popularity. Crazy for a game that debuted over a decade ago

I forgot that the turn based combat was an April Fools joke this year.

This makes me hyped for it love turn based gameplay and when do we ever get a turn based jrpg based around crime drama

And tbh yakuza’s combat was never that great. I play these games mainly for the setting and story. They could’ve turned this shyt into a stealth and wouldn’t make me feel no way as long as that story is lit I’m good with anything.

This is probably just an optional mode in the game

Nah
You know how much work that would be?

Have you played other Yakuzas? They've done this before. They always have side mission chains that are completely different from the main game. They have whole business sims, racing games, RTS and sports minigames as optional side missions.

This is probably one of them.

 

[Uchiha God]

turn based? ionno about this one

 

[Brer Dog]

But why not just make a spinoff? This is going to alienate the people who played the games for the combat system.
