    Why would I want to remove the improved gameplay and go back to a terrible, poorly designed beat-em-up?

      This. The turn-based combat needed polish, not removal. The beat-em-up shit can't be saved though, so I don't know why people are so desperate to go back to it.

      I will never understand the turn-based mindset.
      >Instead of going in and beating up enemies at whim and triggering heat moves on my own terms at any time, I'd rather sit around, wait for my turn, press one button so I can watch the combat AND the heat move cutscenes without having to be involved whatsoever.
      Makes no fricking sense how people will complain about "watching cutscenes" during a beat-em-up but will applaud 2 or 3 button presses just to watch a psuedo- cutscenes of your guy walking up and hitting the enemy.

      How the hell are you gonna sit here and tell me that is somehow more exciting and engaging than controlling the flow of battle on your own?

    Oh I was gonna make a LAD thread but I guess I'll just ask here

    What the FRICK is wrong with Ichiban? I get that his personality is supposed to be stupid but loyal but him simping for Arakawa for 80% of the game dropped LAD 7 from a 8/10 to a 6/10 for me. It's absolutely fricking moronic how him "believing" in Arakawa is somehow proven to be right even though objectively Arakawa deserved to have his legs broke and left to fricking die.

      He didn't have a family of his own so he projected that need upon his new father (and brother) figure at any cost. This shit actually happens fairly regularly in real life. Kids that suffer emotional trauma or lack of stability in early life will often go FAR out of their way to project some sort of parental normalcy onto their perceived family.

      It's the same reason kids who are adopted, then abused by the adopted family, very rarely speak out about it. Blind loyalty like this is kinda realistic for Ichiban.

      I think you misunderstand the point of Yakuza as a series. Our protagonists were always, and will always be the "old school" type Yakuza that believe in honor/respect above all else.
      If Ichi didn't "simp" for Arakawa NO MATTER what Arakawa did to him, it'd go against the the whole being of the series.

    I don't really understand what the philosophy of 7 even is.
    >Kiryu's story is done and complete and has been so for a while, literally everything they add now feels glued on and pointless
    >they introduce a new protagonist 99% of the playebase likes
    >complete with new combat system that, while in desperate need of some touch-ups, was by most seen as a breath of fresh air
    And now we're hard-lining backwards to boring protagonist with the same dull beat em up combat?
    Why?
    If they do something new and it works well why would they try to walk it back from what they were originally trying to get away from?

    I liked Kiryu, but does anyone seriously need more of him?
    Especially after they did such a great job with the passing of the torch in the last game.

                Then you didnt wander around, theres enemies with crowns that can easily ko your party members. The fight speed is slightly faster than 7 for sure. Obviously its a turn based game so it wont be mega fast but it isnt as slow as 7. The other jobs available in the demo were pretty good aswell.

      You might be shocked to learn that Sega aren't known for their staggeringly intelligent business decisions.
      I think it's going to jade a lot of people. The ones who liked Ichiban and turn-based gameplay are going to turn away at the door when half the game is Kiryu's stoic shit and brawling, while the ones who like Kiryu are going to get bored of Ichibans far more extroverted personality and turn-based gameplay that they probably haven't improved since the last game.

      It'll probably sell well, because 7 sold well and got a lot of new people interested, but it will split the fanbase and 9 will suffer for it IMO.

      They've been literally throwing shit at a wall so it snowballs into Kiryu having to get involved, and there has been no real solid direction for Kiryu since the end of Yakuza 2. 6 was also a failure of a send-off cast because pretty much none of the characters from Kiryu's past really even mattered and instead it chose to focus on a bunch of new characters, a few of them just being excuses to show off the actor they cast, and then wrapped it up in a bitter sweet ending. I feel like 8, at least based on what we've seen and what has been done in Gaiden, is setting up Kiryu to at least be properly stepping aside and finally being done with it all and hopefully getting to spend his remaining years in peace with his family.
      Ichiban probably only has one more major game left as well before the series switches to someone else because Ichiban feels like there is a natural conclusion with him having his own family.

      It's called 7 for a reason. It's a sequel to 6. The first two-thirds are a soft reboot that doesn't really rely on anything from the previous games while the last third spoils a bunch of stuff constantly for several hours and the story's payoff relies on you caring about what is happening.

      Yes. You still shouldn't play above 60 regardless if you use it or not.

    99% of my problems with like a dragon 7 was because of the rng movement. I legitimately spent 30 minutes waiting for a character to walk to a spot where they wouldn't immediately get fricked in the ass the second they used an offensive move. Yakuza 8 fixes this and i couldn't be happier

    Do you have to start the game over?
    How do you raise job stuff, ally xp etc.? Or is that just ripped out? Is there any progression with his moves?

      allies are just removed and jobs were turned into extreme heat modes that changed your moveset based on the job equipped(ex mode in hero equips the bat, bodyguard equips katana, etc.)

          well, it's a 1 man conversion project and watching even one video of the boss fights like kiryu's or biggie/smols kinda shows how janky it is.
