They are nintendrones.
>>329167073
I didn't care that they removed hostess bars and other minigames because I didn't even bother with them in the previous entries.
In short:who fucking cares I still got about 40+hrs in Y3 and I'm satisfied.
>>329168782
Yes, I was expecting to see at least one post like this.
>>329168782
They still removed 20 sidequests out of 120.
>>329170418
Can't you read anon? He doesn't care about any of that.
>>329170656
He doesn't care about hostess and minigames, but they removed more than that. Yakuza 3 didn't deserve such treatment.
>>329170750
I know, but he would know if he cared, which he doesn't. They could take half the game out and he wouldn't care.
>yakuza 4 comes around with less content removed compared to 3 and /v/ calls it a victory
>yakuza 5 has more content removed than 4 and not a single peep
Care to explain this?
>>329171007
You tell me. I'm the one asking why there's so much inconsistency.
>>329171007
>yakuza 5 has more content removed
Name some because I think you're full of shit.
Inb4 some licensed songs or something.
>>329171007
People who bought Yakuza 5 are probably so grateful they even get to play it so they just ignore that shit
>>329171704
licensed music
that's it
>>329171007
Did they?
The only thing i'm aware of being removed were songs, which have been removed since the first game.
>>329171007
5 only had licensed content cut, its a shitty thing to lose but understandable unlike cutting minigames and side quests like 3 did, in terms of straight video game content we got all the great shit we wanted from 5 and are also just super grateful we even got it at all. To boot 5 was also high and far the best translated entry in the series and doesnt desperately try to add tarrintino esque profanity into the script like the first 3 games were so persistant in.
>>329171007
You're full of shit. Only a few licensed songs were removed and we waited 3 years for the game anyway.

One is a nintendo game. Nintendo fans have the mentality that nintendo can do no wrong. They usually don't play games on other consoles so they have nothing to compare it to
>>329173858
The bigger problem is Nintendo fans are actually praising them for removing the "icky" parts.
>>329173913

Some licensing issues i've heard.
How the hell has this series stayed so good over the years depsite being yearly while every other yearly series in existence falls flat on its ass
>>329174056
SEGA also removed him from Japan's release of All-Stars because they couldn't add him in the US release.
>>329174057
I got no fucking idea, i pray every night for it to stay this way.

Yeah, tons of people didn't get angry at all to the point of creating petitions (when the localization was already done, LOL) and a whole twitter movement or anything.
Not like I care anyway.
Keep typing away with your keyboard and fedora with your slacktivism just so you can feel part of something-

Because of that
>>329174394
Christ anon, I was just making a point. Why does that make you so angry?
>>329173802
This, TvC UA is what MvC3 should have been.
>>329174394
actually it was a big deal. kotaku articles and everything
>>329174725
Also, 4 and 5 had the same goddamn content again, just better. The 20 substories were the only actual losses.
>>329174746
Nah. Both are good for what they are, I don't really like X-Factor, but I dislike Mega Crash as well
>>329174823
Yes that's what I was saying.
>>329174738
I'm not mad, just correcting you and the outrcry wasn't as huge as Fates either like you are describing, you didn't see 5 threads every 2 hours about censorship with it.
>>329167073
One is a soulless pachinko machine company, other is a beloved children game making company.
I mean we all know it´s double standard. But it´s actually okay when Nintendo do it.
>>329175471
>>329175370
>I'm not mad, just correcting you
Then I don't see why you had to sperg out about slacktivism and fedoras and all that meme garbage.
>>329175720
Is true. I mean killing in the name of God is okay, but not in the name of Satan. What´s the difference? Whom name you´re killing for. Is still killing.
Nintendo = Free pass at censoring
>>329175871
Because I felt like it.
>>329176160
Just some leftover stress from another thread?
>>329167073
Several reasons:
First: A new 'generation' of people are getting involved in video games. These people, experience wise, don't have anything to compare the newest games to, so they think that they're getting a pretty good deal even if, unbeknownst to them, the newest games lack the amount of content that previous games have.
It's like how SJW's go on about some flavor of the month "stronk woman" character, despite the fact that strong women characters have existed since before their headmates moved in during their (dis)formative grade school years.
Second: Video games are expensive to make. Some people are, reasonably, sympathetic to developers because of this. The problem comes when developers cut corners (content) to increase profit, which sometimes (being generous here) results in dumbing down gameplay and trying to compensate by making a game look pretty.
A pretty game is easier to sell to the masses than gameplay. Even people who care more about gameplay will be tempted to let somethings slide for a beautiful vidya dame.
Just look at Street Fighter 5. There's really no reason why the game has as little content as it does now in comparison to the final version of Street Fighter 4.
Third: DLC has pretty successfully beaten down the idea of unlocking costumes/content in-game. While games, particularly console ones, used to have to but all their eggs in one basket, developers can now easily sell the eggs individually.
Back in the olden days, you buy a game, and that's it. No updates, no DLC; just what's on the disc. Of course, there are exceptions, but it was generally true. Nowadays, developers can simply sell you a $60, and take out all the extra goodies you'd normally get as a part of that price, and sell them to you for $5+ a pop.
Some developers use DLC responsibly, others don't.
>>329176309
Fourth: the media and shills make complaining about a lack of content taboo. Some people take sympathy for developers too far and others are getting paid to hype something up. These people spread guilt, and it infects others.
Fifth: Stockholm syndrome. This ties into reason #3 and #2. Content keeps getting removed and video games are 'meh' on average. So, when a developer boxes above average (whether by adding in content that should have been in the game Day 1 or, shockingly, making an actually good game on the first try) people get a little too grateful.
'Good' or even 'decent' is what should be expected.
TL;DR: New people are generally too ignorant, which makes them easier to please and allows developers to cut out content in the hopes of maximizing on said ignorance. The people who should be holding developers to a higher standard (the Media) more often than not decide to shill for them instead and insult people who are smart enough to see through their BS.
>>329171704
1- Some Licensed songs in Karaoke.
2-Official Theme song of the game removed. (It was sang by a famous JP singer)
3- Wallpaper screen when installing the game from the disc.
4- The sound of slipping noddles when eating ramen. (for some bizarre reason)
5-A japanese Quiz Mini-game.
That's all i remember from the top of my head about removal of stuff in Yakuza 5 western release.
I don't know man
I love me some Yakuza and I still haven't played 3 out of spite
>>329176271
Soccer actually, lost the game because I chocked on goal opportunity I had in the final minutes of the game.

Thanks for rewriting history, faggot.
>>329173969
This.
I understand having loyalty to a franchise or a creator, but I don't get fanboying over an entire fuckhuge company like Nintendo.
Some people were mad about both
Some people were not mad about either
Some people were mad about one, but not the other
The world is not black and white
>>329176928
You're welcome!
>>329176309
>Third: DLC has pretty successfully beaten down the idea of unlocking costumes/content in-game.
I find it incredibly hilarious but even moreso incredibly depressing that the WWE games are the only games I've played in the last five or so years with an insane amount of unlockable content that you get simply through playing the game and not through buying DLC.
Though I also find it hilarious/depressing that for just $2 you can pay to bypass all of that. God forbid people actually play the game to get the cool content that you can unlock, I guess.
>>329171007
I know yakuza isn't a very popular series but that's still no reason to blatantly lie m8
>>329176309
>>329177158
I think the worst part of DLC is it isn't permanent. If companies take their old consoles' online marketplaces down and don't bring all the content for them back, it's just fucking gone, meaning if you didn't play it while it's available you'll probably never experience it.
Anybody from now who hasn't played MvC3 but wants to won't be able to play as Jill or Shuma, or get any of the costumes.
>>329175065
Substories in 3 weren't even that good either. I think a bunch of them were just one single encounter.
>>329177871
This.
>tfw no X

You are cherry picking reactions and ignoring the obvious reality that there are heroes on both sides. Only a sith deals in absolutes

>>329176309
>Just look at Street Fighter 5. There's really no reason why the game has as little content as it does now in comparison to the final version of Street Fighter 4.
Street Fighter 5 has less content than even the first version of Street Fighter 4.
>>329178634
Okay, so I wasn't the only one who thought that comparison was underwhelming.
the difference is that one of them is a nintendo game, it's okay when nintendo does it.
There's only one important question regarding the yakuza series.
>ZERO WHEN!?
picture fucking related.

2017 fampai.

"Coming soon"

I was waiting for Isshin, but I guess that isn't happening.
And here I thought I was going to have a collection of all the Yakuza games.
>>329167073
Because Nintendo fanbase is the equivalent of a battered down wife
>>329178812
>tfw hoping for a Yakuza Zero PS4
>>329167073
Yakuza is not on Nintendo consoles.
Nintendo has a wierd fanbase that defends them even when they're shady
>>329178634
>>329178694
Well, yeah, but I was going for the "they could have just ported these characters and modes over instead of trying to make things prettier and gimmicky" line of reasoning.
Capcom, apparently, wants Street Fighter 5 to be a slow burner; keep people interested in it with "free" content updates like Splatoon. Seems like it's just backfiring.
>>329179268
It technically is, butonly in nippon
>>329179506
They put less content in because they wanted to push it out earlier.
>>329178634
It's actually, the SF with less content ever, even compared to SF2 initial release. It's really barebones.
The only thing good thing i can tell now is that the balancing is really tight, that's about it.
>>329179947
Well, at least the future content is free.
