The A.i. is cheap in almost every old school arcade fighting game. These games were designed to suck as many quarters out of childrens pockets as possible.
Holy hell. After just starting Yakuza Kiwami 2 and having to tear my hair out trying to win 6 consecutive fights against the AI in Virtua Fighter, I feel vindicated. The CPU opponents are fucking bumper cars.
And yet a certain website call hard games "Nintendo Hard" despite Nintendo made games are usually fair to beat with dedications. Others like SNK, Namco, and Atlus, expect AI that doesn't play by the rules.
Fun fact this was one of the first games on a console to support 16:9 widescreen. Just select squeezed mode in the options menu then stretch the image via your tv settings and voila, you can witness true uncanny horror but wider now.
Fun fact, when the AI does those knee attacks while you block, it's doing a frame perfect input. Here's how it works: you press kick and guard at the same time but let go of guard exactly 1 frame after pressing it (which you have to press at the exact same time as kick). If that wasn't enough that's the input for every game after VF1! The input in VF1 is the same BUT YOU DOUBLE TAP FORWARDS BEFORE PRESSING KICK AND GUARD AT THE SAME TIME AND LETTING GO OF GUARD EXACTLY 1 FRAME AFTER PRESSING IT. JUST FOR ONE MOVE. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!!?!

I watched this video on Saturday and have just been randomly saying "Seba" ever since.
You know it’s hard when Dunkey says “that’s me losing” and not because it’s his little brother playing with a usb steering wheel blind folded.
Holy hell. After just starting Yakuza Kiwami 2 and having to tear my hair out trying to win 6 consecutive fights against the AI in Virtua Fighter, I feel vindicated. The CPU opponents are fucking bumper cars.
Very few times do people notice, but I think Sega hates anyone who buys their games. Sonic or not.
And yet a certain website call hard games "Nintendo Hard" despite Nintendo made games are usually fair to beat with dedications.
Others like SNK, Namco, and Atlus, expect AI that doesn't play by the rules.
Fun fact this was one of the first games on a console to support 16:9 widescreen. Just select squeezed mode in the options menu then stretch the image via your tv settings and voila, you can witness true uncanny horror but wider now.
This man spent nine and a half minutes going "BOuUunG!" for us 5:05
This was one of Dunkey's funniest videos! I was crying with laughter!
It really is great and funny yeah
Fun fact, when the AI does those knee attacks while you block, it's doing a frame perfect input. Here's how it works: you press kick and guard at the same time but let go of guard exactly 1 frame after pressing it (which you have to press at the exact same time as kick). If that wasn't enough that's the input for every game after VF1! The input in VF1 is the same BUT YOU DOUBLE TAP FORWARDS BEFORE PRESSING KICK AND GUARD AT THE SAME TIME AND LETTING GO OF GUARD EXACTLY 1 FRAME AFTER PRESSING IT. JUST FOR ONE MOVE. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!!?!
This really was the first "stranding" type AI after all
It has that stranding vibe
cool to see someone cover a yakuza minigame in its entirety
Yakuza dislikes this comment lol as truthful as it may be!
3:18 How I felt trying to beat it when it gets included in Yakuza games. Even 'easy' mode was BS.
Lmao what is up with Yakuza games and including random shit to do like play Virtua Fighter and optionally gawk over softcore pr0n?? My friend told me that second part and it cracked me up. I’m definitely playing Yakuza when I buy a PS4 or PS5
@@caseys2698 they're on PC too. Usually on sale for really cheap and on Game Pass too. I put well over 100 hours into Yakuza 0
@@caseys2698 All the yakuza games are great just don't play yakuza 3 on hard it turns into a blockfest.
@@caseys2698 Because it's a Sega game and inspired by Shenmue which always had a classic Sega arcade game in the world itself. It helps root you to the time period of the story.
@@caseys2698 if you google the girls in the softcore vids, you can find their hardcore vids too, this breathed a new life into yakuza 0 for me recently
