≪Yakuza 4≫ My Favourite Christmas Game #1【SPOILER WARNING】

[@TheGohanSkywalker]

For context for anyone on Koichi Yamadera (Akiyama's seiyuu), he's Spike Spiegel in Cowboy Bebop and Beerus in Dragon Ball, among others.

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

Bae watches One Piece, and he's in that, too. As Corazon.

[@Masamune014]

Bae is too young for Cowboy Bebop

[@VVayVVard]

People really should stop bringing up voice actors during let's plays. Not only is it never entertaining, but it takes away time that could be devoted to reacting to whatever is happening on screen.

[@TheGreatKaitsu]

He's also based on Spike Spiegel too. lol

[@Ticketman99]

​@@VVayVVardNot even if said voice actors portray characters in let's plays? You gonna tell me that I'm not allowed to say that Saejima's VA portrays one of the strongest most broken characters in fiction?

[@akumuryuu]

You really grow to love Akiyama over time, going from "wait, who is this guy?" to "Finally, I get to play as the goat"

[@derpedfox]

THE SELFISH DEED IS NAHT FREEDAMM CAN'T JUSTIFEEEEE

[@u_HungryBones]

Thank you for the stream! Akiyama's story and character is phenomenal! It was hilarious watching the pauses during the kiss and looking forward to the next Yakuza stream!

[@_DiegoRyS]

I’m so happy that you finally started Yakuza 4, this game is the best of the original ones! Hope you keep enjoying it and I’m glad that you finally meet our man Akiyama!!✨ Thank you for the stream Bae, see you soon and have a good day!

[@treizehk5547]

3:23:35 Akiyama:There is one thing everyone has in common. Bae:Money Akiyama: A Dream. she is a greedy rat.

God, Akiyama's duet with Hana-chan is still one of my favorite karaoke tracks in the series. So good. Glad you kept on with Y4! Gonna be... an interesting one.

The rare DOUBLE pause.

[@MetalShadowX]

I didn't play this until I played 7 and got back into the series by finally finishing 3. To say the experience was better than 3 is an understatement. Akiyama is still in my top 5 characters of the series, finding him awesome an hour in

[@KohtaHirano]

Thanks for playing this wild adventure of a game Bae! I absolutely love Yakuza 4 and 5, and you're seeing why! You are in for a wild ride Bae, I'm so hyped for the next streams of this 😎 Akiyama an absolute G, Rizzyama even

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

RGG Studios was cooking by introducing new characters, which usually would've made fans angry, but having their first character being Akiyama. Akiyama is what happens when you write a character, but max out their charisma. That man, right there? That is chuck o'meat if I ever seen one.

[@JackiW]

Maxed out charisma, that's why his cutscene stamina is so low. 💦

[@juniorthelivinglegend7904]

1:28:51 Raindrops with Hana and Akiyama is the best part of this game

[@N7RiZe]

I've never seen a chat so consistently post so many spoilers. Moderators pls.

[@Ticketman99]

If you've played 0, you've already spoiled yourself about this game.

[@MugdhaMahdiShams]

​@@Ticketman99No you haven't. No one remembers those scenes in detail

[@Ticketman99]

@@MugdhaMahdiShams So those people have the shortest term memory ever? As for me, I played 0 *after* 4.

[@MugdhaMahdiShams]

@@Ticketman99 So you wouldn't understand then. Aside from remembering the image of a guy with a buncha guns posing like a badass and the knowledge that Majima has a brother, that yakuza 4 segment in yakuza 0 is not plot relevant back then at all. People are likely to forget what they even said back then.

[@Ticketman99]

@MugdhaMahdiShams "not plot relevant" Lmao that's a good one. It's actually *the most important* part of at least Majima's part of the plot.

[@moryda472]

Can't wait for next Yakuza 4 stream, there is still so much for Bae to discover, it's gonna be so PEAK.

[@temyar55]

Bae is breezing through the games. Thank you for the stream chaos rat. I hope you don’t burnout on the games

[@Zexx4]

Y4 may be a weird fame but I holds a special place in my heart, it's my introduction to the series when Pat and Matt from SBFP played it a decade ago....a decade ago...that sentence hurt more than it should

[@crisgeraldperez7]

Ah yes, the LP where Matt talks about a certain John Woo film

[@Rukoy]

i wasnt expecting you to start 4 so soon! i just finished it last month and i can't wait to see how you react to some parts😂

[@eyasa9448]

I believe she wants to be caught up with the new majima game, I obviously REALLY doubt it is even physically possible, but she got the spirit at least 😂

[@Tibblicious]

Thank you for continuing yakuza!! I really like 4. Can’t wait for the next one!

[@ShadowThe771]

The first time I saw Akiyama, the first thought that came to my mind was “He reminds me so much of Mine.” Granted, both differ a lot in personality, but hear me out. Tehsnakerer, a gaming KZbinr who’s made great retrospectives on the Yakuza series, put it best in his Yakuza 4 retrospective. Both Akiyama and Mine are wealthy businessmen who are funding Yakuza out of a personal interest and both are driven by feelings of abandonment, which drives their complicated relationships with money. Hell, it could be argued that Akiyama was built off the character archetype of Mine.

[@dirtypeasant6941]

Hell yeah, shoutouts to Snake. Man makes some really good videos.

[@ironlegion1573]

Ah, a fellow snakeheads

[@zengate1222]

51:30 Ah, the law of Yakuza's cutscene guns. You see, cutscene guns are at its weakest at the beginning of the game, where it cannot kill even when fired at point-blank. It gets more powerful as the game progresses, where it can kill even the most powerful characters if the shot is fired right at the ending of the game.

[@killercart]

Very nice start to this game. Nice to see your reaction to the goat Akiyama and the karaoke and so on. Thanks for the stream, Bae. See you next stream.

[@chrisyou0821]

start 4:17

[@KurstKensei]

So Akiyama is voiced by Koichi Yamadera, who voiced Spike Spiegal in Cowboy Bebop, and Saejima is voiced by Rikiya Koyama who voiced Takemura from Ippo and Retsu from Baki

[@febryumeko6375]

1:28:41 ward this for spamming karaoke Akiyama and Hana-chan

[@Rikirinajasendiri]

This is a Christmas Game, for sure

[@WhatABeautifulDuwangChew]

Nah Yakuza 5 is. If you know you know

[@GLogan360]

Yeah Y5 is the Christmas game

[@Rikirinajasendiri]

@@WhatABeautifulDuwangChew I'm trying to sarcasm the title bro😂

[@khoonkitlim5963]

Thank you for the fun Yakuza 4 stream, Bae!

[@MarakamiSG]

Yakuza 4 is the game that got me into the franchise back in 2014. Back then the series wasn't as popular until two let's players introduced it to their audience. I love to believe their videos are the domino effect to why Yakuza is a beloved franchise now.

[@RazeSlayer]

Some would say... they were Two Best Friends.

[@FloppyFiona]

Bae is finally playing the best Yakuza game ever💖

[@Jun_Issho]

Off to a great start!

[@SomberPine]

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why you don't skip Yakuza 4

[@akumuryuu]

Best karaoke in the whole series. After disappointing 3, this game has both Machine Gun Kiss and Pure Love, plus all of Hana's songs.

[@MilkEnjoyer2]

@@akumuryuu yakuza 3 was the first to have karaoke so its understandable

[@a12custom]

お疲れ様でしたー。 수고하셨어요

it's so strange to have a protagonist with actual charisma this time. Wonder how we get Kiryu back though

[@ツトム-b5t]

Thank you for the stream!

[@darkness2101]

What a great start for Yakuza 4. I'm not gonna blame you for liking Akiyama. He's just a chad and most likeable guy (my top favorite character too) Yakuza 4 karaoke is PEAK. They really kill it with all of the amazing songs (one you have yet to see of course!)

[@awalludinsyam1500]

3:01:15 replay button for me.

[@DingoEnderZOE2]

I was doing overtime at work while she was streaming this much to my dismay because i was really looking forward to how she reacts to my boy Akiyama. Please tell me she warms up to him fairly quick

[@shephawke]

Im looking forward to her reaching part 2

Funny, but I believe that yakuza 4 is the least Christmasie, it take place in summer no? But in the other hand, Yakuza 5 is the most Christmas in the serie.

Somehow I always knew you would like Akiyama. He has the gigachad energy all the time and is just overall a really great character, one of the best in the series. Glad you're enjoying 4 so far! Looking forward to more!

[@KingTriforcer]

Hmmmm not feeling this game like I did the others. Might need to see more of it 1st.

[@fe1tan695]

Trust me, once it gets to the middle it gets so fucking good

[@GenesisJames]

Imo this game was just testing the waters for Yakuza 5. 4 isn't bad but it's easily the most forgettable in the series. It's much more ambitious than 3 but 3 does characterization and vibes way better since 4 doesn't spend too long building each character up unfortunately. 5 on the other hand jumps off from the seeds this game planted and runs with them, and while it still has some story hiccups (mostly at the end), it does a better job at selling the characters and world, I think.

[@derpedfox]

it's quite a slow burn so let the game cook

[@TOjJeto]

@@GenesisJames 4 suffers from quite a bit from being memed on cause of the rubber shenanigans, though I think Akyama and the next protag made it worth playing regardless. 5 imo is one of the funnest even if still rather weak story wise, its still one of the more important games in Kiryu's arc.

[@MilkEnjoyer2]

one of the problems with 4 imo is how it starts with akiyama and a bunch of unknown characters so it takes awhile to connect with his story, and when you do his part is already over, i think they shouldve switched part 2 with part 1 and made some changes in the story to fit this change better, cuz the part 2 is more connected to the other games plot overall
