I had the exact same impression but they had a long string of remasters to churn out for PC. Gaiden is more like a standalone expansion but swings like a main installment in content.

I am very curious to see how the release schedule changes with devs moving into full blown top seller JRPGs instead of story focused beat-em-ups.

The canon series order is basically:

Yakuza 0

Yakuza Kiwami 1 and 2

Yakuza 3-6

Like a Dragon

Like a Dragon Gaiden

Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth

But fuck SEGAs shitty DLC practices, I buy Yakuza games at half price or less as a personal rule.

Fuck that I wanna die from taking a direct 155mm shell to the face in the civil war after taking a dozen fascists with me

It’s gotten so bad over there, they put Yoshi-P on a mainline FF game while simultaneously heading arguably the #1 MMORPG in the market lol

Shoutout to when I parked my Python on the Gnosis and never logged in again.

I like to imagine a huge hangar full of cobwebs and a rusted skeleton of a ship.

This is why I chose the deck. Least powerful in the segment on paper but those Windows handhelds are not going to age well lol.

It’s mildly fun if you use CE to give yourself good gear/money to skip the 50 hours of literally useless “gameplay” grinding in a single player RPG

It’s financial damage, by intentionally causing third party controllers to be unusable when they otherwise work just fine. This gave the manufacturers a consumer impression of being shit when, again there was nothing wrong with the hardware.

You should have seen the fucking starfield subreddit before release lmao. One guy on there was genuinely convinced this was “something special” and would revolutionize the gaming industry.

The basis for that claim? The way Todd fucking Howard was acting, and the marketing material for the game.
