@@tambettammisto7423 I don't think so, once a poisoned enters your blood stream there's no point. That's why it's not a great idea to try to suck the blood from snake bites, better to just get an antidote then risk bleeding to death. Believe it or not the knife is "holding" the blood in and keeping the wound closed.
Im not an expert. But I think that the knife will drive itself deeper as he moves around. It would be fine if he lies down and does nothing, but if he's gonna move around, then its better to pull out the knife and prevent it from moving deeper into the organs.
This scene gives the vibes of a character ending , usually when a character get stabbed like this it's the end but this is kiryu the main character he can't die
If you ever feel yourself having the worst day of your life, just remember that Kiryu was trying to alleviate his aching heart with a wet cigarette, and get stabbed by some nobody at the same time.
I remember how emotional I felt when I 1st saw this You got your friend that's pissed and you try to help, but it only makes make them more pissed You try thinking about your actions towards set said friend, and you're in your feelings because you feel like you can't do anything You try to give yourself some confront by lightning cigarette, but even that you can do You see someone in need of quick help, so you help them, but in doing so, you let your guard down, and BAM, you get stabbed People around you don't even try to help you. Instead, they run away, leaving you to die alone in the rain
Yo imma be real. No one excepted that Kiryu is gonna be stabbed by a homeless guy and seeing Kiryu taking out the knife is somehow oddly satisfying since remember. HE DOESN’T DIE FOR SOME REASON AND BEATING AT LEAST 500000 people after that
the reason the stabber ran wasn't because he didn't wanted the police to arrest him, it was because he though kiryu was gonna get up and beat the crap outta him
Ngl, I had a thought that made this scene even sadder. I thought that he pulled out the lighter he bummed from Nishiki WAYYYY back in 0. But looking back, Nishiki had a flip lighter.
I actually noticed that too. Most of the yakuza in this game use a flip lighter but kiryu uses this cheap dollar store lighter. If he had the flip one he could have lit his cigarette in the rain xD
I like it, but it just doesn't feel right somehow. Like, even removing the music would improve the scene for me. A version of the scene without the song or the stab sound effect would be perfection! But maybe I'm just a hater 😅
I need new Yakuza games to start adding weather. There's no reason for a game with such a small map compared to open world games not have a proper day and night cycle and weather system. Rain often enhances games to me.
The Yakuza games usually don't do that because they use the weather and time of day as part of the story, so if it changed randomly it would be kinda jarring. They focus more on detail than size or features
@@obscurereference2359 They've rarely used weather as part of the story, lets be honest. In all their games it has barely rained for the story. Also I never understood that logic, Spider-Man fanboys say the same for their game. But the story part plays a cutscene. If it's never raining in the game and suddenly rain happens in the cutscene why can't it simply be raining before the cutscene in the game as well? There's no real logic behind not having it. When it's raining in Yakuza 4 it has nothing to do with story or anything it's simply raining. They just have to add it for specific parts because they are too lazy to add a weather cycle.
You know, this almost happened to me, i messed up trying to help a friend of mine, and they bloated out at me, same day 3 hours later i get mugged by a guy with a knife, if I didnt have my guard up, i could of died
Man I love this cutscene so much. Everything about it is so perfect. Kiryu's emotions, his thoughts, the rain and the damn ost playing in the background. The song makes this scene absolutely amazing.
my only complaint here is the stabbing sfx, because the whole premise of this scene is kiryu unexpectedly getting stabbed. The original's still better imo but this one's also good except for the stabbing sfx.
@@MariusBoss11458 Yeah, i can't see a reason why they had to make the stabbing so obvious, even the guy's hands can be seen thrusting into Kiryu's abdomen. Song is a 50/50 for me, the old one is simply too good, it's moody, gloomy, and i legitimately went kinda emotional the first time i saw this scene on the old PS2 version. New one just feels like it's filled with irony, i guess that could've worked, but not as well as the old one.
People always point out the little things that barely change on how the good the entirety of the game actually is but you're right the stab is too loud even Kiryu should've heard that.
@@MariusBoss11458 facts. why the fuck did they decide this was a good idea. completely butchered the damn scene. about the song, like em both but yeah old one fits better. this knife sound effect tho, shit's revolting.
@@swagman2001 I personally hate how it starts compared to Crazy Ken's song in OG Yakuza 2, it just sounds like some AMV you'd see in high school. The part at the end that starts playing as he's pulling the knife out is great, but they also screwed up the stabbing by adding in a super obvious "Stab" sound effect, when it was much more ambiguous in the original until the camera panned down, which fit Kiryu's initial confusion at the guy not taking the can back.
I don't understand how people can say that this scene was ruined in kiwami 2 compared to the original. They're both very good. I genuinely liked this cutscene so much, let alone the song being super good.
As for the scene, for someone with no nostalgia and checking this clip and the original I like this way better. It was dumb as hell to hear absolutely no sound when you clearly could tell that something happened.
This song is honestly perfect for setting up hearing it again in the end. I've listened to the original ost didn't care for it much. Gave me Italian mafia vibes which I never want in a yakuza game.
@@anormalguy-t42 sounded too much like frank Sinatra. I instantly thought of him. Your comment actually made me go look up the scene in the ps2 version.
@@ChampDietingAndFitnessbro frank sinatra sounds nothing like crazy ken have you ever heard either artist's music 😂 The jazz music in question is supposed to invoke an old timey noir-esque feel to this scene which works well given this point in the game as opposed to the weird choice of music they used in the remake
@@toplel1860 the music in the remake is one of the best songs of all time. It also fits perfectly for the end of kiwami 2. It's a bittersweet song. This one is trash. Also the music vibes has a frank Sinatra mafia feel. Not their voices if I need to clarify.
Por eso esperaba, con la carita empapada a que llegaras con rosas CON MIL ROSAS PARA MI por que ya sabes que me encantan esas cosas, no me importa si es muy tonto soy así Y aún me parece mentira que se escape mi vida imaginando que vuelves a pasarte por aqui
I actually this version more than the original's. It's a lot more dramatic and intense. The OG is like "Yo, Kiryu got stabbed," and this is like "Oh shit, Kiryu got stabbed!"
I think this music's better than the original. I get the complaints, but I like the use of cheesy emotional rock here. The original track seemed kinda weak tbh.
I wonder, how do first timers think of this scene. Cause I played the original, and way prefer that over this. By a lot. Purely because of the music choice and the sound design
i agree with people that the knife sound effect wasnt necessary but i like the music here way more, and the cinematic quality of kiwami 2 makes it so much better imo
probably because the k2 version just feels so weirdly abrupt and has the extremely goofy stab sfx along with unfitting j-rock, the ps2 version did this scene so much better, sucks to see they didnt at least use the same song from the original.
legitimately baffling how bad this scene is in comparison to the original even though the only things that changed were the music and sound effects, and the timing of them. Just goes to show the importance of good audio direction.
I'm so glad the licensed music restoration patch exist for Kiwami 2. The awful knife sfx giving it away so soon, the music fitting more a teenager upset they can't go to the concert, the song just being so off for the tone of the scene itself. It doesn't fit the crime drama atmosphere the game has gone for up to this point, and Its so out of left field with the music from the rest of the game. It doesn't even fit the music Sotenbori has during random encounters. Its what I imagine someone listening to Spotify while playing the games with the volume turned down would happen to be listening to. Not the actual score for the game. The original PS2 release was so much better, and the fan made patch for Kiwami 2. You can tell this was an issue with Sega not wanting to pay the licensing fees for the original PS2 version's songs. I'm really glad fans put in the time to fix this, but I'm also glad you documented this cause I wouldn't have appreciated the work the mod put in without seeing the original scene.
This song and the stabbing sound effect really ruined this scene for me. The entire series has so many bleak scenes, so I'm at a loss of words why they directed it like this.

a quick tip from me:
if you get stabbed, don't pull the knife
Yeah this is just what i was thinking... Why did kiryu pull the knife? Is it acceptable to pull the knife if it is poisoned?
@@tambettammisto7423 I don't think so, once a poisoned enters your blood stream there's no point.

This scene man.. it really made me feel kiryu's pain like i felt my heart being broken and think about my own relationship
I like how you edited out mashing the A button after the stabbing.

This just shows how much weaker he is in cutscenes...
