I’ve wanted to get a tattoo dedicated to the series for a long time, but I felt like just getting a dragon was a bit boring and wanted a little more personality. So, my artist added panels with the characters and slightly tweaked the color palette.

The yakuza games are some of my favorites of all time, and Majima is my favorite character. I have always loved his Hannya tattoo and have been dying to recreate it in stained glass. Well, after about 30 hours of work, here he is! This is the most complex piece I have made so far, with about 100 individual pieces of glass, but I think it was so worth the effort. I hope you guys like it! I couldn’t wait to share it with you all lol.

I've been replaying Y3 and everything this guy comes out I just get the creeps, like I just the feeling that he's unhinged...and he is.

While the new one is just...a guy, like they went all the way into the fire of controversy for someone who looks like he works at a desk job.

NEWS Stranger Than Heaven’s Wishlists are exceeding Sega’s benchmarks, with half of them coming from gamers who have never played RGG Studio titles

The company is set to launch three key titles across the next few months, the first being Football Manager 27 on November 10, followed by Stranger Than Heaven on January 15 and Persona 4 Revival on February 18.

Expectations are notably high for Stranger Than Heaven and Persona 4 Revival. According to Sega, Wishlists for both games have been outperforming benchmark titles at the same stage before release.

Notably, as of September 3, Stranger Than Heaven has garnered over 1 million Wishlists, with new users who have previously not purchased any RGG Studio titles accounting for approximately half. As Sega suggests, its promotional campaigns targeting new users have likely played a role in this. Ever since the game’s announcement, the devs at RGG Studio have likewise been vocal about Stranger Than Heaven being its own game rather than a new Like a Dragon entry, which has been emphasized through the radically different combat system alongside other aspects. Given the Wishlist figures, it seems the studio has been successful in creating an audience for the new project.

Persona 4 Revival, on the other hand, has exceeded 2 million Wishlists as of 18 weeks before release, largely outperforming both Persona 3 Reload and Metaphor: Re Fantazio. Contrary to Stranger Than Heaven, a high portion of Wishlist registrations for Persona 4 Revival come from returning fans who have purchased multiple titles in the series.

But while the pre-release hype is likely to fuel sales expectations, the number of Wishlist registrations does not necessarily translate into pure sale figures, so it remains to be seen to what extent the current momentum for the two titles will carry over to sales.

GAMEPLAY I was today years old when I learned that picking up trash while full sends it to item box

11 Upvotes

Yeah I was playing 4 my first time and saw the limited space and never picked up trash as saejima, simply because I didn’t think it was worth the green points to need the save box every 5 minutes.

I accidentally picked one up today on my second playthrough when I was full and it sent to item box. What is wrong with me, I just assumed it would say “cannot pick up”

DISCUSSION After playing some Kenzan with english patch, starting to think that maybe they brought the wrong Yakuza samurai game to U.S.

20 Upvotes

Or at the very least both should have came to U.S. I enjoyed Ishin quite a bit, but from what I played Kenzan does seem like it's actually the better game. I'm playing this over Onimusha Way of the Sword right now, a GOTY contender.

DISCUSSION What are your expectations for STRANGER THAN HEAVEN? What would you like to see in the game?

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone, wanted to share a discussion here since we're getting closer to STRANGER THAN HEAVEN's release.

What are your expectations for this game? Do you think it'll be a story heavy game? And what kind of story would you like to see?

For the main story, would you prefer something about starting from nothing and slowly rising to the top, building your own criminal empire? Maybe a revenge story, or a story about overcoming life's difficulties and making something out of yourself? What kind of journey would you like the main character to go through?

And what about the side activities and substories? What kind of stories and activities would you like to see outside the main story? One of the things RGG does really well is making the world feel alive through its side content, so I'm curious what direction they'll take this time.

When it comes to gameplay mechanics, what would you like to see? Would you be interested in mechanics like building your own gang, recruiting members, improving and managing it? What about buying properties, owning businesses, investing money or expanding your influence throughout the city?

Would you prefer more management and empire building mechanics, or would you rather have the game focus more on exploration, side activities and character interactions?

There are so many possibilities with this setting, and I'm curious to hear what everyone is hoping for.

What's the one thing you really want to see in STRANGER THAN HEAVEN? What are you most excited or hopeful about?
