This comes after the social media channels vanished the other week.

Why would the chigyu do this?

 

[Fbh]

"Sir what should we do?"
"Just recycle the same assets like we always do. Time for our 800th game in Kamurocho!!!"
"But sir, we are a new studio, we don't have any existing assets to recycle"

 

[Hudo]

Well, this was the only game by NetEase that I kept an eye on. Nothing else they have done and have announced so far seems interesting.

 

[diffusionx]

Maybe Sega will take him back, not like Yakuza has been doing great without him.

I still find it funny he left his job making Yakuza games to start a new studio so he can make Yakuza games.

 

[DeVeAn]

What a damn shame. I wonder whats next for him?

 

[Sticks]

Put him on F-Zero Nintendo

 

[Skifi28]

 

[squidilix]

He won

He didn't "left his job", he was kicked in the ass and fired by Sega because he used the company money with no permission to go to dinner (and after-dinner) with other other companies' big shots without telling anyone what the hell he was doing.

He got all the way to the top of Sega's gaming division (he's the reason Sega only made Yakuzas for years) and thought he could get away with anything. And now he has nothing

 

[Pejo]

I wonder if he joined forces with Yu Suzuki at Ys Net, would the outcome be the best Shenmue or the absolute worst Shenmue?

Because new, turn based Yakuza games are utter shit.

This game looked very promising and I was really looking forward to see what might come out of it.

You had your fun. Time to come home.

Doubt it, seems like they parted ways on bad terms

 

[mdkirby]

Every time I see new related to this company I briefly panic and think stranger than heaven has been cancelled…then I remember and relax.

He also got into trouble after offending an puyo puyo player.

They are still making mostly yakuzas, difference that even yakuzas become garbage

[The Cockatrice]

Leaves RGG
Asks for A LOT of money
Receives it
Shows a mediocre product
Asks for EVEN MORE money
Producer say NO
Closes

What a based yakuza move.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

That really sucks. I was really looking forward to this one. I don't care if it's a Yakuza clone - I want a Yakuza clone from this dude.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Bad news. Later Yakuza games are imo not near as good as the older ones, and with Judgment nowhere to be seen I was hoping for this dude to deliver a tonally serious Yakuza-like game.

 

[Deerock71]

"Permanently."

 

[Jinzo Prime]

Sega doesn't need Nagoshi.

I hope so.

I'm playing infinite wealth right now and like it

 

[NorthernSword]

Yeah it's really good and so was Like A Dragon. Those games are excellent and the combat is really top notch for turn based. All the Yakuza games are still very fun. Pirate in Hawaii was a blast.

After what he did before leaving? Hopefully not a chance

Not even the worse thing he did

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Damn! I thought this game would click with me better than yakuza. Highlight of that show imo.

 

[TheLikou]

Now people decided to hate on it, it's just the internet being internet. Also, Nagoshi himself was the one that decided to make the seventh game be turn based so the ones complaining about it are just a bunch of retards.

Infinite Wealth has an way better battle system with character positioning even. Can't wait for what they'll do with the next one. When an creator get out of a company people decided that everything turned to shit just because. They don't want to look at the games, they just decide that it's bad now and that's it.

 

[Hugare]

You had your fun. Time to come home.

No thanks

Yakuza 7/8 were great and Stranger Than Heaven looks awesome

Nagoshi need more Sega than Sega needs Nagoshi

 

[Comandr]

7 was excellent. And I *loved* 8's gameplay. But the story sucked. Yakuza pirates wasn't anything to write home about either. Nagoshi brought a lot to the table. He could very easily be in charge of one of the spin off series.

 

[nial]

RGG7 came out like 2 years before Nagoshi left SEGA.

Yeah, I wasn't a fan of Infinite Wealth or Pirate Yakuza. Both were mid but for different reasons.

I wasn't also looking forward to Nagoshi's game .

 

[poodaddy]

I really hate Sakura Wars but this is definitely dick head behavior.....

But Sakura Wars is weeb garbage.....

The guy let fame get to his head the same way Yuji Naka did in the 90s. Naka also thought he was untouchable, but the chickens eventually came home to roost. Legendary programmer, but insufferable person to work with.

Man, I'm even happier that I skipped that trash.

Can't possibly do worse than Shenmue 3.

 

[KaiserBecks]

That's a shame. The announcement trailer for his new game looked really cool, I was looking forward to playing that. I was hoping they'd secure the financing.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

You had your fun. Time to come home.

Now this must happen.

There's no room for a strong fat hero in the age of ozempic

I'm okay with RGG making (new) turn based RPGs and people enjoying them. I'm not okay with them RAPING an established IP that has existed for almost 20 years, taking away the franchise from fans of that series. But we already had this discussion when Like a Dragon released.

 

[Gonzito]

This is very sad tbh

 

[cireza]

Maybe Sega will take him back

 

[Sintoid]

Put him on F-Zero Nintendo

Race 1
Mute Kamurocho

 

[Germuso]

Nagoshindeiru

I just want more monkey ball man
