« This whole thing could've been DLC. Instead they invalidate your old saves and hike up the price of the full game for extra 20 minutes of pointless cutscenes. I love this game, I love this series, but this is a really scummy move. »👎 anonymous review · 42 h played5321« Great game, awful rerelease. The newly added cutscenes do nothing for the story. In fact I'd say some of them harm it. Play the original if possible, but if not then this is fine. Also delisting the original is scummy af »👎 anonymous review · 102 h played1132« just buy the legacy yakuza 0 from gog and it will be only 20 gb and besides its both cheaper and it wont disappoint you like this game did to me »👎 anonymous review · 4 h played5111« Please, can we get a competent voice actor for Kiryu? Yongyea has to be the laziest "Voice actor" I have ever heard. Did he record these half asleep? »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played10632« De-listing for a higher price + more gigabytes? Yeah not for me. If anyone really wants to play this, try to find the original game key, way more worth than whatever this is. »👎 anonymous review · 1 h played2111« un plaisir de le refaire, en plus avec les traductions. »👍 anonymous review · 29 h played
