    For some context: the reason that the main characters in the Yakuza games canonically don't kill anyone (or, at least, don't kill anyone except in self-defense) is because the creator of the series emphatically does not want to promote crime or make it seem like killing people is cool. This is also why the characters never initiate fights on their own, they only fight in self-defense or on behalf of someone else, because if they did it would go counter to that message.

      It also ended becoming a meme where everything the protagonists use is non lethal. Going from rubber bullets to rubber explosions.

      Really? I kinda figured it was more a translation thing, where it was actually "Kiryu never MURDERED anyone." I dunno how many of you remember the original RDR, but "there's a difference between killing and murdering."

      @@TacticalHatchet Nah, other yakuza members actually make fun of Kazoo in some games in the series because he is in organized crime but never kills anyone. I guess they wanted to romanticize the idea of a rogue sympathetic "bad guy" who cares about being honarubrrruu above all else even tho he is in fact in a criminal organization..and also not promote murder probably 🤷‍♂

      @@TacticalHatchet That's basically what I meant. Kiryu has killed people to defend himself or others, but he's never killed in cold blood or murdered. But there was a mistranslation and got memed into KIRYU HAS NEVER KILLED ANYONE and now it's just a part of the general mythology of the series.

    The Yakuza creator explicitly wanted the series to not be like GTA with killing people and even driving vehicles (also so the players can't run over people). Beside lore reasons, he wanted the players to immerse themselves with the culture of Japan and being a GTA character prevent that.
    He was so uncompromising on his vision of Yakuza that when the higher ups worried the game wouldn't sell outside of Japan for the differences in culture, thinking of cancelling the project... that the creator straight up bet his career on it success, that he would resign if the game failed.

    It's a big plot point that Kiryu the protagonist get's framed for murder and wastes 10 years in prison because of that one death, so if he went around killing people casually that plot point and few others would fall completely flat.
    Goro Majima on the other hand (eye patch guy) only doesn't kill in this prequel, this game tells the tragic story of why he's batshit insane in all of the other games.

      Well... Unless i'm remembering it wrong Majima was already known as the Mad Dog before we meet him in Yakuza 0 as a host. He was just trying to lay low and leave that life until he was pushed back into it, then embraced it moving forward. I may be wrong but pretty sure I remember when he goes nuts someone says something like "oh shit, it's the mad dog", implying he was already known but enough time had passed for him to not be recognized at first

    Some scenes in this video are actually taken from yakuza kiwami 1 and 2, with 2 for some inexplicable reason being made in the more modern dragon engine, with 0 and 1 not, 3, 4 and 5 were 'remastered' for PS4 and need patched to use the original music and cutscenes from their PS3 versions as there's rather obscene compression artifacting in the PC and PS4 cutscenes, yakuza 2 needs an fps/physics patch as does 3, 4 and/or 5. 0, 1 and 2 also need music patches. Also kiwami 2 actually gives some semblance of closure for majima regarding makoto, the blind woman, in the majima saga.

    The “never killed anyone” is a mistranslation of a statement that said “kiryu has never MURDERED anyone” as in, he only kills in self defense.

  • @drakke125Channel
    @drakke125Channel Год назад +1

    "I haven't killed anyone"
    Basically a game has a story and cutscenes. When you're forced to fight, you're in an 'area' of combat, like a fighting ring. Even if you snack their neck or slice something or shoot them to death, it just requires you to get their hitpoints (HP) to zero. By satisfying the requirements of 'defeating' them by beating them to 0 health, you can progress through the story/cutscene where they're still alive. "How" you defeat enemies isn't important, what's important is you finish, er, defeat them and watch the next cutscene. That's video games for ya lol
