This division is way better than 7 imo

This is the only division in the entire contest where there isn't a game I actually enjoy. I've never played Galaxy 2 but everything else is a whole lot of meh for me.

How do I buy property that are also shops/restaurants? Do I have to max out their personnel's affection first?

If the property has an affection bar tied to it then once you max it out you'll automatically get the property for free.

Despite just playing these substories and knowing how wild they are, it's still crazy to read them completely out of context.

I haven't played any of the other Yakuza games and that fortune teller substory kind of bummed me out. All I could think was, "ah man Kiryu in prison for that long? This must not end well".

Also everyone on this board is old, no one here grew up in a world with autosaves. We were there to see technology advance for the better and now obviously would rather see a feature that has been standard for over a decade included in our games.

You worded it like this was a brand new game when it's not. Can't believe people who grew up with no autosave are suddenly crying about it not being in certain games now.

Imagine thinking you're cool for saying, "things were worse back in the day and people who prefer modern advancements are bad".

Imagine having a take anywhere close to that!

Whenever the Gwent developers do a stream it's very lighthearted and jokey, and those are headed by the Senior Communications Manager of CDPR itself. It's obviously a different team but they share personnel. You guys are making it sound like they're all living in cages and need to ask their managers if they're allowed to speak lmao

I will say Black Ops is one of my favourite CoD's and if we had five more nomination spots I probably would have given one of them to it.

Maybe Allen wanted series representation from two of the most popular series of the decade? Fortnite doesn't rate on Gamefaqs at all either but it wouldn't feel like a GotD Contest without including it. I feel like the same can be said for a Halo game and a CoD game.

Apparently Majima was tortured for a year but the yakuza torturing him was so impressed that he's not dead yet that he let them into the family. Then they kicked them out. Then Majima wants back in to save his bro, who's in trouble for killing 18 members of a rival family? Did I get that right?

I believe he was already in the family and he was tortured because he wanted to help his bro with the killing despite being told not to, and then was kicked out of the family but not killed because they were impressed with him living.

I just finished the game a few days ago and loved it. The only thing I knew about Yakuza going in was that it was essentially a beat 'em up and that the story was insane, and it delivered on both of those for me!

This caps easily my best performance ever with being on the leaderboard for multiple days and up to the top five for awhile before finally finishing in the top fifty. I'm very happy with where I ended up.

As for the match, it's looking like Witcher will be able to finish with at least 40. It's going to go up overnight before probably struggling again towards the end of the match.

Seinfeld is one of my favourite shows of all time but I think I have fonder memories of Stiller on The King of Queens because of the aforementioned situation.

I've been thinking about it all day, RIP.
