I adore the setting, my only slight gripe is that I wish it embraced the Japanese Samurai movie traditions like Hanzo The Razor, Lone Wolf & Cub and Zatoichi (the Shintaro Katsu interpretation, I like Beat Takeshi but he just isn't Zatoichi) and adopted a far bloodier aesthetic but then again you can't have everything.
I wanted to help give this one a head start and thought y'know what? sure lol. It's funny too, the early watch time on this vid def shows a few people showed up just to see no beanie then leave, plenty of other folks sticking around though which is great!
always appreciated your game coverage on the made channel, but knew down in my heart that other folks only tuned into gaming tech vids. glad you're able to find a middle ground to do both.
Thanks! Yeah it's always been the stuff I've been more excited to share, but the tech side of things just kept working better on the main channel since that's how the audience grew lol. Looking forward to building this new home this year!
@@NextSideQuest Shot in the dark but I also know you're big into TTRPGs, that something you might jump into with this new channel as well or are these mostly covering games?
I've actually been really heavily debating that! TTRPGs are definitely near and dear to my heart, but honestly I just haven't thought of what I'd want to do for them from a content creation standpoint hah.
Judgment, especially Lost Judgment, really shouldn't be compared to mainline RGG as it's a spinoff on it's own with it's own combat identity IMO. OG brawler RGG games have always been more methodical in execution and less about what LJ brought to the table. This game definitely has it's own identity as well that sets it apart from all the other games so I'd say literally take it 'as it is' and don't go in with 'other game' expectations at all.
Hell yeah! More Kevin content and this time you actually came up with a name for the channel, instead of naming it Kevin Kenson 2 lol. Ps, when I saw your post about going "beanie free" I honestly thought you were trolling us and it would be audio only or you would be wearing a baseball cap or something else instead LMAO

i literally cant wait until this game comes out! i remember playing it at my step dads house not knowing japanese so i just did whatever until either the story progressed or i asked him what i had to do lol it'll be nice to finally know what's going on hahaha
omg that's amazing! I knew of the original but have never gotten the chance to play it, after getting into Yakuza I dreamed of this getting ported and am so hyped this remake is happening.
I've been interested in Ishin since it released in Japan, I just never imported it. I loved the way of the samurai series, so seeing Ishin come to the west was BIG for me. I liked Yakuza games, but not as much as I liked way of the samurai.
Even tho this is coming out and I'm gonna 100% it and beat on every difficulty hard and up (heard there's a new ishin difficulty!) I'm probably gonna end up getting a PS4 and getting the original ported over eventually. But for now Ishin releases this Friday and I can't wait
yeeeeeah, only so much I could learn/remember on the fly since it's been a bit since my last non Dragon Engine RGG game, plus it was early game so a lot of late games moves and abilities weren't available yet. Can't wait to go more hands on with the full version later this month
@@NextSideQuest i dont blame u one bit! Thats why i reccomended for People interested in seeing the full potential of this fighting to look for late game stuff I also can not wait for the full release Gonna play that for weeks
Awesome! I think this one's gonna be a good place to start (will know better once it's fully out), though I'd also heavily recommend checking out Yakuza 0 if you get the chance, incredible game.
Get ready for the journey, it's an amazing one and they're amazing considering the price, they almost always are on sale and they only cost like 6-8 dollars, definitely some of the best content packed games and easily one of my top game series I've played. I started with Fist of the north star Lost Paradise cuz I was a fan of the anime series, loved it, and started the main series with 0 when the Baka Mitai meme was going around, figured I'd get it just because the meme was funny, and the game was amazing.
Literally the day before this remake was revealed my wife and I were talking about how cool it would be to be able to play this some day, the PlayStation State of Play that revealed it just completely blew us away lol
I would say for the current price of the game, I wouldn't pick it up but hopefully down the line when sales hit, it would definitely be a perfect time to pick up Ishin. Honestly tho, can't wait for it. Completed all the games now I just need more to just satisfy the Yakuza thirst 😂
Oh there's gonna be some JRPG reviews for sure. Might go back to FE Engage to get something done a bit late, but def planning to review Octopath 2 later this month (though the video would likely be in early March)
Looks really good, Kevin. I'm curious: With fighting styles, do you get to change them on the fly mid-battle like in Ghost of Tsushima or is it selected outside of battles similar to JRPG's?
Awesome, thanks! I rewatched and it looks like there’s a four-way selector on the HUD that shows which you’re using, so that’s my guess, too, that it’s on the fly. Super cool idea; Loved that aspect of Ghost of Tsushima.
on the fly! the four styles are available at all times and all you have to do is tap one of the 4 directions of the dpad for which one you want. Bottom left of the HUD shows which ones are mapped where.

@@NextSideQuest thats actually not so bad, being that this was made in unreal engine instead of the dragon engine i kinda expected this. thanks for the quick response
My question is this. I'm not completely sold on combat: Does it have a parry/dodge system...you know...something actually technical? Because everything else looks amazing, but if the combat is simply "mash mash mash" I'll have to pass on it.
That's what I said. Yakuza is an immersive game. Seeing those numbers completely took me out of experience witnessing that. Guess this was when they were making their rpg transfer?
1. We don’t like the same games at all! However I like your videos on your other channel and I’m interested in seeing games reviews etc.. from you. 2. I was playing halo while listening so I didn’t see anything until after my match and you took the beanie off. I was so shocked! It’s been a long time coming. Now we can get headphone videos without the cups being over your hat lol
Oh I gotta keep that joke alive on the main channel for sure, it's just too silly looking lol. But yeah over here? Beanie free. Glad you came over to check the channel out! Don't worry, I don't plan on it being *just* RPGs (though there will be plenty lol)
It's going to be exciting to fight against Amon of this game, in original it was not easy and required a lot of focus as he'd pull out moves very unknown to you.
I never got a chance to play the original, excited to know there'a another Amon fight though as there should be hah. Can't wait to see all the later game content
Always considered the main channel to be gaming at its heart, but yeah, much more tech focus on the main channel as far as gaming hardware/controllers/etc lol. This new channel is where all my game focused coverage is gonna live!
@@NextSideQuest cool go on .. we supporting you .. oh and please do playthrough on big games talk about the games .. podcasts ,, you can do it 👏🏼 2023.. you are coming
The demo I played (and the footage captured here) was on an Xbox Series X, when the game launches I'm planning to play and review the PS5 version to see how it compares.
hah, it's a remake of a PS3/4 title, and it's releasing versions across both current gen and this past gen so it's targeting a little older. Overall still looks solid though and the gameplay is awesome so far!
@@FunLobsterFacts Even though I'm still playing and finishing Kiwami 2, at the same time I've started to play through the ones I've already beaten, trying to make them harder and thus more enjoyable, starting with 0, only using 1 style in the ones with multiple styles, never upgrading, on Legend. The plan is to beat it 3 times Using brawler and thug, rush and breaker, then beast and slugger. Kiwami 1 4 times with those 4 styles, then Kiwami 2, 5, Lost paradise. I'm excited to do Ishin no upgrades only using brawler considering most enemies use swords, so not a lot of blocking will work. Edit - For what it's worth, I forgot to mention I beat every boss in the story, including the ones you're supposed to lose, example being Mr. Shakedown in 0, first Majima fight in Kiwami 1, etc.
Been playing the original on hard, from my experience it's one of the hardest in the series. Enemies take a lot more advantage, when you have your back turned and alongside bosses generally deal much more damage, seeing as they're usually carrying weapons. The game is also less generous with checkpoints during long battles and there's also much less healing items if any at all during them.

As someone who got this game really early... this is a BANGER..

all the other videos showed repeated gameplay and trailers. Im actually thankful you showed more gameplay
Looking forward to seeing videos on the new channel I’m sure they’ll be just as amazing as the last!
Thanks! Really excited to go all in on making content for both this year!
Immediately sold on you saying it closest resembles 0, Y0 was so so good and had my favorite combat of the series.
I've been hyped for this game for a long time. I like the fact that the card system & number data are wholly optional. I adore the setting, my only slight gripe is that I wish it embraced the Japanese Samurai movie traditions like Hanzo The Razor, Lone Wolf & Cub and Zatoichi (the Shintaro Katsu interpretation, I like Beat Takeshi but he just isn't Zatoichi) and adopted a far bloodier aesthetic but then again you can't have everything.
