Yakuza's Combat Is Great Because It's A Fighting Game At Heart

TheGamer's James Troughton says: "Yakuza might be a JRPG that sees you exploring the open streets of Kamurocho and Sotenbori, but its brawler-inspired combat feels more like a fighting game. There are the signature eccentric combos, devastating moves that would certainly kill enemies in any other game, and over-the-top introductions to boss fights that even Heihachi or M. Bison would think were a bit much. You’re not just smacking heads and firing off guns like in GTA, you’re roundhouse kicking yakuza and spraying foam into the Men In Black’s eyes while Kuze rides in on a motorcycle with a lead pipe. I can almost hear the announcer yelling, “FIGHT!”"

No. It's simply an excellent beat'em up at heart. Everyone who plays fighting games knows that.

It always bothers me that beat'em ups have become so rare these days that people dont even remember what to call them anymore. I've heard everyone, from journalists, to long time reviewers and fellow nerdy gamers call them brawlers, hack & slash, fighting games, like bruh, it's a beat'em up

Yeah..as a gamer since around 1987 a lot of things in the gaming industry and community are a bit annoying. But maybe we are just purists..and far away from the casual people that call just every game either a 3d action adventure, rpg or fighting game and never even heard the word "beat'em up" before;)

Terry_B1020d ago

However..when we see an opinion article from thegamer..we can be sure there is a lot of bs written there in at least 2/3 cases anyway ...

Very disappointing. He Dew not know De Wey.

"“Sus” is short for suspicious. It was first used in Among Us where players discuss whether a player is responsible for murders in the spaceship." Nope. In use for a century. Simple googling would have done the trick. Funny article, but come on, do some research before you post something as truth.

Good article on "sus"
