Familiar and Unfamiliar Spots in Yakuza 0

  • Yakuza 0 is a wacky little game in the Yakuza series. Say, did you know the Japanese name of the series translates to Like a Dragon? Isn't that weird? I kinda prefer the name Yakuza. Or maybe I'm just used to it, so it's weird to start calling a series I'm already familiar with by a different name all of a sudden. Or maybe I'm just stubborn and wanna act like a hipster by continuing to call it the Yakuza series.
    Who knows...

    Being in the Kamuro shopping area always makes me uncomfortable because of the possibility that Mr. Shakedown might wander in there

    Back in the day there were far more yellow lights in cities than there are now too.
    Most yellow street lights have been replaced by bright white ones, that's another thing that makes the world look more like the 80's.

    Kamurocho and all the other districts in this series are so fun to walk around, love the little details and how much they nailed the vibes of their real life counterparts. I've seen footage of 80s Japan and Yakuza 0 was spot on.
    Anyway, great video, I especially appreciate you covering a Yakuza game. Shame it's gotten so little views 😔

    The game must tell you the magazines are real, because I knew they were real but my knowledge of print media in Japan was zero before I played the game, and now it's still zero with a few numerals to the right of the decimal point.
    I love how the dancing animations show these people are workers, they can't dance but they dance anyway, they are having a good time just being brave enough to let themselves be watched by strangers.

      Honestly, maybe I was just being kinda dense at first. The way they're presented, they do FEEL like real magazines. They probably wouldn't have even made the magazine shelf and let you look at all the covers if they were fake.

      @@PretzelYT you can look at fake magazines developed by your own R&D team in MGS Peace Walker, so maybe they would have made parodies. Either way, really cool that they didn't. I knew they were real because they name-dropped publisher names (Kodansha comes to mind, it's also in the video).

    Yakuza built a lot of its attention to detail off of Sega's other series: Shenmue. I have a feeling that if you got around to playing that, Pretzel, you'd have probably DOZENS of videos to make with its atmosphere. Very good video though, Yakuza 0 is so fun to walk around in.

    • @PretzelYT
      @PretzelYT  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I'm very aware of Shenmue, but I haven't played it before. I have an inkling it'd be kinda hard to play as a new player for the first time in the current year. I should give it a try though...

      Please do. Shenmue is such an unique experience, I think you'd have a lot of appreciation (and we'd love to see your video of it).

    The Yakuza / Like a Dragon games easily have some of my favorite atmosphere in games. I've made several ambience videos focusing on areas within Yakuza 0 so far. I'll have to start making some for other games in the series.

    3:24 I dunno, I think that's sushi lol, always loved walking around the edges of the map looking at the out of bounds areas, especially that area across the taxi street. what district would be back there?

    God your criminally underrated
    I might not stop by much (or watched the full video but I promise I will), I hope your videos get more attention because they are hidden gems
    Yes you got alot of subs and your highest view count is a million, but its about the consistency of viewers on each video not the peak or subs

      @PretzelYT  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Yeah it's super sucky how recent videos have struggled to cross even 3000 views. I don't know what I can do, I feel like video quality has been the same, if not better, than my earlier ones.
