    Game Talk: Yakuza w/ Tradehold

    Debuting our new segment, Game Talk! Starting with the Yakuza series, in tandem with the new Yakuza: Like A Dragon release (Time Stamps below for topics)! Because we're not all always available at the same time, it becomes difficult, especially near the end of the year, to schedule a podcast, so Game Talk is a new segment where any of us can host a game topic of discussion and invite anyone else to join, without needing another CS member to be present (though they still can be). This discussion on Yakuza brings up a lot of topics though remains spoiler free to much of anyone listening (for the most part, unless specified). This recording was meant to be published 2 weeks ago but due to many different circumstances including internet outage and editing, but what better day than Yakuza: Like A Dragon's release right? We also have this uploaded on YouTube! Because our guests were out-of-state/country, there was a lot of delay in responses, hence why editing was done (roughly 10 mins of silence was edited out) - there were also spots that sounds like they were edited, but was actually due to mic drop-out. The recording format also of back-and-forth, as opposed to a more lively discussion, was also due to our equipment not built to handle group calls. Time Stamps: Our backgrounds on the series - 2:44 Start with Yakuza Kiwami or Yakuza 0? 6:06 Will they make a Kiwami 3? 8:21 Thoughts on gameplay change for Yakuza: Like A Dragon - 11:40 Will they remaster and localize the spin-off games (some spoilers mentioned here for Ishin)? 22:37 Dubbing - 34:58 Wrapping up - 48:17
