      DUDE, how could you miss the most reused heat action ever - the baseball bat one. It's the exact same in most Yakuza games I've played (I am completely sure about Kiwami, Kiwami 2, Y3, Y4, Y0, Y6) - the character hits the opponent in the legs, then does the batter pose, winds up a bit and hits the opponent straight in the noggin.

I don't even care if we didn't have nothing to do there besides beat people up(that's the fun part) and eating at the restaurants, just like it is in Y7.

    Back in the day, did any of you watch that one Assassin's Creed music video for a song called Beautiful Lies? It was fanmade, with all the cool transitions between the three different characters (watch it right now if you haven't!)? The heat action part of this video really reminded me of that but with the RGG boys instead, and now I wanna see a whole video dedicated to that sort of thing. Really great work there, not just on an editing level but also on doing the legwork for recording the footage. I think people tend to really underestimate the amount of work that goes into that stuff as well.

  • @treyplayx3
    @treyplayx3 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I have noticed times where I would see a heat action from an older game show up when I'm playing a newer one, it's quite fun to see them still even if you've used it a million times previously in another. I don't mind RGG reusing heat moves/fighting styles from older games since personally I barely notice similar fighting styles and it's always a treat seeing a returning heat move. As always, thank you and I really enjoy your videos and can't wait to see what you cook up next. Also, I really like that little detail where you made the Y7 logo transparent to show the skill's name. I love little details like those when I notice them. Thanks again.

      Yeah, I really liked that. By the way a little addendum, I have to replay Y7 since my save data corrupted due to an unfortunately timed power outage last night. And actually, the huge traffic cones do exist in Y7, however as far as I know only in the very beginning when you chase down Ushio. So, between that and 18 years later something happened to the cones, or that RGG is using an older version of Kamurocho during that timeframe before Ichiban's arrest. But I like to think Kiryu destroyed all the huge traffic cones.

    • @treyplayx3

    RGG studios asset reuse is called out a lot, but in todays landscape where we find out about these ridiculous budgets and staff layoffs, its so apparent that the highest level of production values in AAA games comes with a great cost.
    Sony first party studios like Naughty Dog and Insonmiac are a good example, they will impress the hell out of you, but we are finding out their budgets are unsustainable. RGG studios cheaps out on a lot of things like this video shows, but in hindsight, they are smart and efficient with their money, maybe the industry can learn a thing or two from them.
