What's your favorite thing about Lost Judgment Dad?

Lost judgement has the best combat in the whole series, the amount of tricks you can pull off is pretty insane and I especially love the snake style

23:02 "In what other game can you investigate a murder, walk a dog, and skateboard around the city?" Deadly Premonition 2.

Considering that Lost Judgment takes place in a post Tojo Clan environment, I am really looking forward to what Yakuza 8 has in store.

Lost Judgment might just be my favorite game in the Yakuza series. It's combat is phenomenal, it's full of stuff to do and it's a lot of fun. It's an incredible game in general

How the hell is it possible for you to pump out videos like these so frequently? Other channels upload once a month at most. It's crazy. Appreciate you though!

The kaito files dlc has gotta be some of the best dlc I’ve ever played although yes pricey the whole experience was a 10/10

I LOVE Lost Judgement so much. I haven't finished the school stuff yet. But the Main Story starts of "YAWN BULLYING" but by the end WOOOOOOOOOW. I though RK was a hint at where Yakuza might go, could still be. But what put it over the top for me was the Kaito Files/Tales DLC. It made Kaito one of my favorite characters in the series and had probably the biggest scumbag in the entire series as the Villain.

I just recently discovered your channel and have been loving your Yakuza retrospective videos. I'm glad that you also made one for both of the Judgment games. They're really underrated and I hope that this PC release will bring the series the glory that it deserves. I absolutely love these games, probably even more than Yakuza. It's about time the community talks about something other than Yakuza 0 (e.g Kuze and Disco).

Hey Son, it's me, your favorite Dad. Just wanted to tell you I look forward to your videos every Sunday. See you at 1mil subscribers.

Really wasn't expecting Sawa to die when I played

Not only is Lost Judgment an incredibly polished game, but it somehow managed to be leagues better than its predecessor (which was already a good game itself). Most series (of any medium) struggle exceptionally hard just to make their sequels come close to the game before it, but here you have LJ both meeting and surpassing the game before it. It's kind of amazing. While I prefer playing my Yakuza franchise games as Kiryu I'll be damned if LJ isn't the best game in the franchise. It basically perfected the general formula. The best thing about this is that the games in this franchise tend to carry over all of a previous entry's improvements onto the next one, so when we finally get our hands on the next Yakuza game we can probably expect one seriously polished chunk of gold.

Son I must have slept with the flash when you were conceived because no normal human can put out quality videos like these with such frequency.

I'm currently playing through Lost Judgement, so I haven't watched the whole video, but as someone who was bullied for about 3 years growing up, I really like how the story explains and explores how and why bullying happens and how it affects the victims

Lost judgement is such a great game.

23:02 Deadly Premonition 2 may have done the murder solving/skateboard riding/ dog walking detective first, but this game does it way better.

LEZ GOOOO! been waiting for this since you posted the judgement retrospective! Keep up the good work son!

Hey son, just wanna say your videos always bring a smile to my face.

Huge thanks for using the dub for the video specifically, I mostly listen to this kind of videos so it's a huge help

I was waiting for this one, I cant wait to see your retrospective on Lost Judgement

Lost Judgment was a great sequel, but I preferred the first overall. Liked the story more. And this may seem a weird thing to complain about, but I thought there was waaaaay too much to do. Don't get me wrong, Lost Judgment is great value for money when it comes to content, but after a couple months playing it I was like "oh God it's still going." Must have been doing something right though because I did it all

Lost Judgment is also one of my favorite games in the RGG canon, and definitely trumps Judgment in terms of narrative/gameplay. Unwavering Belief is also hands down my favorite boss battle music across every Yakuza/Judgment game, beating out the previous top contender Destiny from Yakuza 6. There's just so so so much to love about this game (which feels weird to say, considering the subject matter). Yagami and Co. have such a fantastic dynamic that isn't really replicated anywhere else, though Yakuza 7 comes close. It's really hard not to gush about this game, it's just that good.

The music at 43:10 is so bad ass. It's not long, and I can't find it expect that in this chapter, but it sounds epic

Yoo judgement time!

*the first 4 Chapters are AMAZZZIINNNGGGG, i loved everything about the school and wished the entire game was centered around it directly. i feel like Yakuza 7 and Judgment were the perfect laid groundwork for us to get this game and it just does so many things well. 2nd best game in the series, right behind Yakuza 0.*

I find it hilarious that Yagami doesn't tell Amasawa "I uncovered one of the biggest scandals in the medical space of Japan history, look it up for your proof". Could've ended the whole argument right there

With this I finally finish your Yakuza series. Thanks to you I'm giving these games a shot!

I don't know how you keep this output son but it's impressive.

I initially bought Lost Judgement just to play Sonic the Fighters. God was that the best decision. And thus my Yakuza/Like A Dragon addiction began

Today is a good day, new Vid from son, LET'S GO!!!

you forgot to mention how OP boxing style is when used outside the minigame

Watched every retrospective video o f yakuza and enjoyed it. Can't wait for the Ishin one. Great job and keep going.

The ending is PHENOMENAL.

I'd really love to see you do a retrospective for first of the north star lost paradise another absolutely phenomenal Yakuza style rgg game.

Not done with the video, it's been an excellent analysis so far and is making me consider replaying Lost Judgement since I only played it once when it first came out BUT the line "Jun ate the card like a fucking Chad" actually made me laugh out loud at the office so, big kudos for that. Im replaying those 10 seconds over and over for the same adrenaline rush

When Judgment 3 gets made, I think it’d be cool is they made it like Yakuza 4 and 5: multiple characters (hopefully with Yakuza 0 style character switching). Obviously, you’d play as Yagami and more than likely Kaito. And seeing as how Gaiden allowed a playable Higashi and Sugiura, that’d be cool as well. It might be difficult considering Yagami and Kaito have multiple fighting styles, but it’d be cool.

fantastic video son. i looking forward the day when we get more judgement, lost finsihed in such a good note what will Jin do next and how the shady goverment side will respond to all these revelations.

Loved this game so much

My personal favorite game from RGG

How far had you come, son, I remember starting following this channel with the 3 hours long Legacy of Kain video, thinking "great work, hope this guy does fine", and now that video has over 1 million views, and you are close to covering the entire Yakuza series, all in the span of less than a year, really curious about what retrospectives are you working on, and the future of this channel. Anyway, would like to know your thoughs on the future of the Yakuza series, if maybe RGG might be milking the series too much, considering in less than two years they are releasing a remake, another spin-off, and a mainline title, without mentioning bringing Kiryu back, and whatever they are planning for the 20th anniversary of the franchise in 2025.

Kyoya sadamoto is the villain I hate the most after Iwami (Y6). Glad to see he got what he deserves after ruining everyone lives

I finally finished lost judgment and though I loved the game, I don’t entirely share your sentiment on the school stories. I did like a lot of the mini game aspect of it (minus robotics), but in a future entry if they do large side content like this can they be centered around adult characters? I feel like the “how do you do fellow kids” meme is like the underlying feeling of so many of these stories.

I stand by the fact that the boxing minigame will be the closest we will have to an official kurohyou translation

Fist of The North Star: Lost Paradise and the Judgment game were my first real introduction into the Yakuza franchise as a whole. Lost Judgment alone is not only my favorite of the two games, but also quite easily one of my favorite games of all time. I've only now just started to play Yakuza proper because of the Judgment games, and am currently starting with 0. The moral dilemma between Yagami and Kuwana is excellently executed, and Kuwana is easily one of my favorite antagonists in fiction because of how sympathetic I found him to be. I will say that you missed out on one big factor coming out of the School Stories: that Boxing is the fourth style for Yagami and is not just for the Boxing portion of the Stories. I found it especially useful when I fought Kuwana in the finale boss fight since Kuwana's style is essentially an amalgamation of Yagami's Crane, Tiger, and Snake styles. So beating Kuwana with "The Sweet Science" was quite the advantage. Overall, this was a great retrospective into quite possibly one of the best games made in the last 10 years. Hopefully this is not the end for Yagami and company and that we can get at least one more game in the future.

Just finished both Judgement games and came here to say that Kaito is my favorite supporting character out of any RGG game.

Do you have any thoughts about Kaito not having an irezumi? It kind of took me out of it with the 1-2 punch of the jacked doctor and inkless Kaito.

love your vids even tho ive already finished all the yakuza games

Hi son it's me, your favourite Dad

25:07 iirc, you didn’t *technically* have it from the beginning in Judgement, the game forces you to unlock it as part of the skill-buying tutorial

You living legend

I know I don’t say this as often as a father probably should… The thing is… Yeah, the thing… It’s just that.. Damn, I didn’t think it would be this difficult. This was always YourFavoriteMothers field of expertise! But she’s gone now… For at least another hour. Said she’ll pick up some Micky’D’ on the way ba- NOOOO! DARNIT! … Look, son, what I’m sayi- what I’m trying to say is… … That… … I’m proud of you, son.

Did you ever buy the boxing style dlc? It's easily one of the best styles the entire series has seen.

My dude if you put a sponsored link to buy this game here I'd buy it right now. You need to talk to Sony.

I legit am at the warehouse fight, i got to the last enemy but died because i was tryna be cool so here i am spoiling it for myself

Man, the moment the sentence " the whole system " with patriotic sad song it reminds me MGS

Your workflow must be insanely optimized to have put out judgement the other day and then lost Judgement today

Can you explain whether judgement series and it's characters know about kiryu and the clan?

Fist of the North Star Lost Paradise next or waiting for another installment of either the Judge or Yakuza Like A Dragon franchise or Binary Domain or Ishin?

1:31:04 not true! You have to upgrade the boxing minigame skilltree to upgrade the boxing fighting style that you use outside of battle

Hi son, I’m your favorite dad. Wait what….

Hey Son, any plans to do Like A Dragon Ishin? Would love to see you do a video on that

You know, if you are being bullied, endure. Silently record everything that happened to you. Bullies usually do things with some habits. Maybe they will bully you in the bathroom, in class, sports field, etc. Notice it and plan your recording accordingly. If you can't record video, record audio is fine too. Take the pictures of all your wounds. Record the days and time of your bully if you can. While you are doing this, start training your body. Just some simple stamina training and pushups daily is fine. After you collect a decent amount of evidence, I say you have two choices. First, you can simply upload everything on the internet along with your school and the teachers that didn't do anything even if they knew you are being bullied. Then simply watch the chaos unfold. Second, you can upload all the evidence online with a timer (say, make it upload during the time for recess). Then you can FINALLY retaliate when the bullies start to bully you again. Physically retaliate that is. Whether you win or lose, that doesn't matter really. All that matters is that you release all of your pent up frustrations at them. Don't do anything too violent though. You don't want to be a criminal. Then, watch the chaos unfold as your evidence went up. That's what I'd do if I was bullied in this modern days. In the past I could only do the violent thing lol. The bully stopped bullying altogether for me, so it works fine. I'm lucky I guess.

Hi son, I'm proud of you - Dad. This game is almost perfect, in many ways easily the best RGG game to date, but it's marred by some *bafflingly* asinine UI decisions. The move to permanently lock the controls display to the bottom right, in a game where immersion in a meticulously detailed world is THE main draw, is damn near unforgivable. Then for good measure, the baby-mode "Tips" popups never stop coming. Then there are the glowing items cluttering the world, which were never necessary in Yakuza for some reason. Oh yeah, do you want to roam the beautiful simulated cities in first-person like in the other Dragon Engine games? Well guess what, there is no first person view without a busy 'gadget' HUD. Taken together, these do almost fatal damage to the core immersive-Japan-simulator experience, making the game feel more video-gamey than any other RGG game while essentially insulting the player. I don't think my take on this is an overreaction, honestly. These would have been SO easy to address, but through some tragic anti-miracle were either not caught in playtesting or were somehow thought to be good ideas. This is without getting into the shamefully undercooked and tedious PS2-level 'stealth' and 'parkour' mechanics, which thankfully only comprise a small % of gameplay. I actually really liked the tailing and chase missions btw.

i really liked the School Sideplott, but i have to admit: The First Judgement was a little bit more interesting, but by a small gap.

Thanks for playing the English language version. I am indeed one of those people who listen to rather them watch your videos.

Honestly, even if it just the surface of it, and the ending of that subject is hella cliche, bullying is a serious issue, not taken seriously by a lot of people. Sure, most places have basic "no bullying" type of rules, but that is mostly on theory/symbolic.

Have you thought about doing a retrospective Like a Dragon Ishin?

Question: I know that RGG games tend to be standalone but just wanted to know if Lost Judgment can be played without playing Judgment?

After I finish trail version and it will intro then I can't able to end

Wait, Johnny & Associates cause stupid problems even on this side of the pop-culture sphere? Damn, those people are deadset on being infamous.

I never played the lost judgment dlc…I should lol

Man I love your videos but them amount of ads placed in them is crazy

This is a really good Game but ist has to many generic RK goon Fights other than that its a 10/10 game

You said boxing skill unlocks don't have use but they do tho. You can use boxing style in normal game. (Unless I understood the video wrong cause I'm watching every vid in like 5 sessions xd)

Have you done like a dragon gaiden yet?

My biggest issue with Judgment was that they stripped nearly all the rpg elements. No armor, no weapons, and you can't change costumes at will. Felt like all I got was parts for the drone racing which I just did not get into even though it was a neat idea. I also just have so little patience for stealth mechanics so that caused me some trouble. I keep hearing Lost Judgment is pretty good though so I'm excited to check it out. I

Story games needs money

are you doing the OTHER spinnofs? the zombie shooter? the samurai games? the psp games that one cares about?

hey son, could you do me a favor and look into the prototype franchise?

2 more games to go

I still probably like yakuza 0 distractions more because of 3 main reasons, the sega arcade feels like an actual arcade... Doing the distractions reward you for doing them... And do i even need to justify stock racing?

I like the first Judgment story better. Probably because it me by surprise that it would be that good and I had a lot expectations for lost Judgment. Not to say lost Judgment's story wasn't good. It was kinda slow to start.

WAIT. I never seen that Zombie shooting game

Dose story gameplay needs money

Great game, Im loving it, but the beginning is soooo slow, even more than other yakuza, you fight the same group of guys like 6 times and you have to help the same person from the exact same situation a bunch of times in the same place, while being looked from other content, I think the first couple episodes from part 1 were much better.

All I’m going to say is this….. I hate the robotics class…..

really liked the story of the first one, it got me really excited for lost judgement but it's story left me disappointed imo.

I played through LJ for the first time and my god, Sawa was so annoying! And when she gets unalive'd the game wants us to feel sad and shocked and has Yagami constantly going "Sawa-sensei was a victim!" like... yeah, but she also did nothing and kept information hidden just because when she spoke out she got silenced and instead of getting evidence or doing more for the students she supposedly cared for so much, she just kept quiet, hid information and was an annoying twat to Yagami at every chance she got, not sayjng she wasn't a victim, but the game wants us to feel bad for a coward who constantly antagonized Yagami

Story wise I found it to be the most bland

Never understood why the RRG games' english dubs use the japanese honorifics. I can't take it seriously and it just rips me out of the experience. Cringeworthy stuff really, especially in the emotional scenes. To me it makes the characters sound like a bunch of weebs larping as anime characters in a convention, them using the honorifics while speaking English because they won't bother to learn the japanese language.
