12 copies of the same photo were just sold to the same cute idiot. Thankfully, he had a pirate ship that stored them on it.

It's made by all walks of life, weird weird, weird, and if they were gifted one of these tomes, they would actually get better. But this has to wait.

Goro Majima and the woman he was trying to invite to the party – once surrounded by a middle-aged man showering while stroking the dandelions between his teeth and then grabbing the dandelions from the boat. As they relax on the beach, tell her that he is helping a child achieve his dream – adventures on the ocean to make anyone's wood tremble.

Something became very touching after a moment. Then, a group of pirates attacked. Majima grabbed his trusty boomerang scimitar to whip them, and he got a backup he didn't expect. She pulled a full-size sniper rifle out of the thin air and exploded in a way that made Danny Devito proud. Naturally, he later recruited her as the captain of the Kiryu clan, the laser gunner.

Like Dragon: Hawaii's pirate Yakuza often does this. This is a Yakuza game, Pirate Game, Pirate Yakuza game and Yakuza Pirate Game. It switches between these identities more smoothly than the clothes in the pink phone box-sized locker room of his various party venues. It revels in the inherent absurdity of this duality, but if you allow yourself to be brought to the ride, you will still find it with more serious and distinctive moments.

There are a few points in its main story – seeing the iconic series Charming Mad Dog washed away by amnesia on the coast of Hawaii and evolved into a man who pursues a hidden treasure tribe with all the tricks of conspiracy whenever things happen When you turn into a pear shape, you will get the Tojo clan – when I find myself wondering if the pirate Yakuza is really like the story of Majima. If you were to plug in like the dragon's eponymous Kazuma Kiryu, would things be different? There must be some crossovers – they both are tough, aging Yakuza guys, their carefully cultivated gangster behavior that makes the warmth located inside.

But it's a Majima story – not only because it takes the series' “weird knob” and raises it to its maximum when doing so – but because it conveys as much as any adventures with Kiryu, especially Like any adventure of Kiryu, especially like Kiryu's Longgaidon: the man who erased his name. At first you can easily mistake a life that might be bordering on a carefree desire that might be a life that borders on a vain responsibility, as Majima seems to ignore everything he has forgotten, as he longs to keep his adventures running and falls into More effort. Bina. Of course, Kiryu and Majima both lose their sense of identity at the beginning of these refreshing short stories – there is a shared alienation, a sense of having to reconnect with the world – but it has a unique form.

Kiryu's battle is not drowning in reality and finding something worth believing, which will continue to move forward in his new life. Majima has to mature and drag down his fantasy charm without losing his Mustang soul.

That fantasy is encapsulated by the pirate's lifestyle where he accidentally falls into trouble and begins to get lost in the trap. As a pirate game, Hawaii's Pirate Yakuza is my most interesting single player since Assassin's Creed's Black Flag – I don't just say that because the former's sailing and ship fighting feels like it intentionally attracted a lot of inspiration Ubisoft's execution Very good.

Controls, manipulate your ship to the feeling of another wide-edge explosion and take side weapons away from the distance. Everything was there, like sliding back into a nice warm rum bath. There aren't so many focuss on impact big losses – I feel like the black flag is totally nailed – but you can use Yakuza to use things to attract everything in a series of Gatling guns, RPGs and elemental weapons Fun a ridiculous, very dragon-level. Your boat also has the ability to lift and drift, like a big dragon kart with a sail, because of course it can.

That said, the fact that I can indeed quickly make some laser cannons is negating many early to medium ship battle difficulties curves, and their short, continuous outbreaks are causing a lot of money to hurt compared to them More conventional cannon explosions and charging times don't feel like it provides too much fines to offset the increased firepower. Only I started encountering real crop frost in the Pirates Stadium – the battlefield is the core of the main new members of Pirates Yakuza to set up established locations of unlimited wealth Honolulu and Nele Island – I felt like it was a feeling of sinking in any danger .

RGG is no stranger to a good battlefield, and the gym feels like one of the best ones. Not only is it a place to grind the crew's level and cash to upgrade or customize the ship, but it is a place to harden before the key main story war, or a dungeon of the treasure island often guarded by the tough devil flags – the infamous one A noisy pirate fleet, your mission is to demolish one of the main sub-pictures of the game.

Meanwhile, when you are on land, you will hike like a dragon style. Majima's two fighting styles – a crazy attitude that certainly gives the early Yakuza series Kiryu PTSD and a furry pose, which, as you might guess, is very satisfying, even in their aspect There may also be some of the most stressful calorie and crazy abilities, especially when Majima is able to move and jump quickly in ways his enemies can't. Early on, this is more compelling, especially if you are in a standard difficult situation, when you name the Madness meter after this style of wonderfully style, you can activate the Mav Dog Majima cloning ability, which can summon multiple clones when You can easily shoot down full health from boss enemies while you relax.

The ultimate ability of the furdog style that pops up weird cursed instruments is equally powerful, and it may also feel like cheating codes if you don't face huge enemies or particularly tough people. That said, especially in people like Pirate Crew Deck Brawl and Treasure Island, you won't be able to pause and reduce some trustworthy stamina, which really helps make things better. Sometimes you do need a giant ghost monkey that summons for playing improvisation, you know?

The underfoot part of the game is commendable for not feeling their sails as easily as they do. While some of the Honolulu events that have just been withdrawn from unlimited wealth, such as photo gatherings and yelling at people on the streets to fill your Aloha Links friend list, here isn't what they do Game is so cheesy The summer atmosphere, they are largely exceptional.

RGG also embraced visual customization in a deeper way than before, not only on your boat, but also for Majima’s custom clothing, which can be mixed and matched rather than fixed. You spend most of your time choosing choices, in order to recruit new crew members, outline appropriate pirate sub-stories and targets, and hunt down bounty targets withdrawn from different enemy categories of IW to bring your Come on, bank. Balanced refreshing blocks.

That is to say, the game side does not feel that it belongs to it. This is the end of a very professional and otherwise perfect Pirate Yakuza Minato Girls sub-story (I started this review by describing an encounter). Suddenly, the voice actor of the game with Majima's crew Masato's voice actor awkwardly outlines the five ladies you attend his party. I can joke about Japanese comedian Ryûji Akiyama Guy wisely makes “Love Juice” on his hair with a classic Yakuza animation cutscene or a little dialogue.

But, other than that, you may not be blown away by any of its individual works, as they see it as a step forward in the series or gaming industry, which may be expected from derivatives, but borrowing quotes from Some short guy, everything works. You can see exactly what Devs are going to do in every choice and mechanic process, why they do it, and have as much fun as the idiot pirate Yakuza.
