So I've never played a Yakuza game before, do I start with Zero, then Kiwami, then Kiwami 2?

PC only.

Its hard to say. Kiwami has less content than Zero and is the “worst” out of the 3 despite still being great, and going from Zero to Kiwami can be considered a huge step down.

Personally id recommend Kiwami > Zero > Kiwami 2 but you do what you prefer. Kiwami is the first game tho and is still good for first timers.

Guys, don't forget to post about good deals and hidden gems, or just random recommendations, in our summer sale suggestions topic:

metacouncil.com

Community - Steam Summer Sale Purchase Suggestions

Figured I could get a thread on this started even though Steam is dead at the moment. What are some games that are currently on sale that you love and want more people to experience? A few of mine would be... If there's any casual gamers out there...

So far, we haven't even filled a single page of posts. :unsure:

General question folks, whats the ratio of combat like in Shadow Of The Tomb Raider compared to Tomb Raider/ROTTR ? I'll be honest here and say I really enjoyed both of the previous Tomb Raider games and their general heavy combat focus (with a bit of exploration) but I don't really care about puzzles so was just curious.

SoTR dials the amount of combat back a lot, and that which is there is a bit more predator-stealth focused than in the other games.

Righto, thanks for the reply :) I'll still get it eventually but nice to see where things stand with it.
 
I am curious if Max Payne 3 counts towards these point things. I played it for more than 30 mins. and I should've at least gotten a few points from it.

But I realized I'm not really in the mood after a bit, so back to Yakuza it is.

I bought it a while ago due to its soundtrack by Steven Wilson. Hope it's decent haha (both game and music)

Kiwami has many references to 0, so I'd suggest starting with the latter just for that.

Be aware that the game will probably crash at start-up after you've saved once.

Fix:

steamcommunity.com

Possible solution for the crash bug :: Last Day of June General Discussions

You know, the one where you can start the game only once, see other threads. I fiddled around and none of the proposed solutions worked. Then I did this: - Go into the game's install directory - Right-click on game's .exe -> Properties - Compatiblity tab -> Chose Windows Vista compatibility mode...
steamcommunity.com steamcommunity.com

The game's structure also means you'll repeat parts over and over and watch cutscenes over and over. Kept my review negative even after fixing the bug.

Atelier interview: Finding the proper mixture for a niche RPG

The Atelier series of role-playing games focus more on mixing and crafting and exploring than saving the world, and that's just fine for Koei-Tecmo's fans.

Wow. PC is “dominating” Atelier sales in Asia. (Probably China)

That explains why Koei actually pushes PC versions of their games in Japan. Definitely sounds good for the future of Koei and Atelier on PC 👍

This is great to hear and makes me think that Koei will keep supporting PC for the long term.

I just wish they would get better at their marketing game. They should try to better utilize Steam for hype, marketing, and SALES! It's seriously so rare for them to do sales. o_O ... but they could probably stand to make quite a bit more money from PC if they would just discount things every now and again.
