Hey!

As promised, here's the second new video for you! Major apologies for the delay but I sincerely hope the wait was worth it. 

With re-releases of Yakuza 3, 4 and 5 doing away with the Kiwami remake treatment in favour of remasters, we get to experience the games in more or less their original form. Ten years on from its original Japanese release, I examine how a decade of subtle changes leave 3 feeling like the series' awkward middle chapter. Let's get rollin', Kiryu-chan! 

Thank you so much for your patience and continued support. Your pledges are what makes this channel possible. Hopefully you get something out of either this video or the comedy games video. They both took a lot of work but it feels really good to be able to share them with you. Thank you again.

Every time you release a Yakuza video you annoyingly remind me how desperately I need to push through all of this series in one swoop. I restarted 0 again recently after showing your video to someone else too, and I've now essentially put 40 hours into a game I don't seem remotely close to finishing.

Also, Yakuza video and a quirky one? Great month for Writing on Games.
