TBF, It's awesome that they enable people with low spec PC's to play the game. I can't say my PC is low spec at all but there came a point when I was growing up (late 90's/early 00's) where a semi-decent (by those times) rig was needed to play the latest releases at something more than 5fps lmao. Good job devs.
Even though I can run Yakuza Kiwami, Kiwami 2, Yakuza 0 and Yakuza 6, My Pc went bad for the three remastered collection games. (My Pc ain't that bad, but ain't that good) Nvidia 940MX, 8 GB Ram DDR4, SDD + HDD, (HDD for low Specs and SDD for High Specs) Intel Core I5-7200u, 4 cores. I did a lot of optimizations, like, disabling Telemetry, services and other Stuff, even downloading Razer Cortex, so yeah. This is a Proof that Optimization is the real deal. Yakuza 0: 60 Fps Low Graphics Yakuza Kiwami: 60 Fps High Graphics Yakuza Kiwami 2: 60 Fps Low Graphics Yakuza 6: 60 Fps Low Graphics Yakuza 3, 4, 5: 20-30 Fps, Lowest Graphics And no, I don't play like it Looks in the video, I can manage to play the games (Except Yakuza 3, 4, 5) on 1366x768, my Laptop full res. without any problems at all. Pro Tip: If you have problems, but not so many in the Fps area, and you got 1366x768 Res, put in on 1360x768, the difference on Fps is huge, and 6 pixels less, I don't think that's a huge difference.
640x480, 800x600 and 1024x768 were the common 4:3 resolutions on PCs 20 years ago. So it's pretty logical for them to include those, just in case a retro collector or simply a broke person is playing on old monitor/TVs.
With the resolution scaling option set to 50% (minimum) you can essentially run these games in half the resolution of 640x480 aka 320x240 render resolution. This setting also affects texture resolution too (although capped to something like 85% in Lost Judgment) which is why everything looks blurry
Low end gamers be like: I don't give a fuck how it looks, I can play Yakuza and that's all I need. Being a shitty computer owner and a Yakuza fan I respect anyone with this mentality
No cap i actually beat all judgment games on my laptop with an i5 8250u, mx150 and 8gb of rams. Big thanks to rgg devs for optimizing their games so even potato configs like mine can run them 🙏
3:07 It's a great option to have, though. Craptop gaming was often somewhere around here for various things. Getting 45FPS at this resolution was cathartic compared to having a much higher resolution at ~20FPS. The games themselves don't necessarily support certain resolutions, though. You can usually add a custom resolution in your driver settings and games will usually start having that as an option. (Some games hardcode their resolutions, but I don't believe the Yakuza series does this). To make the game at a proper widescreen resolution, I used to input a low 16:9 resolution. So instead of 800x600 one could instead do something like 800:450.
TBF, it's thoughtful of the devs to give better accessibility for different PC's. My personal gaming PC is very weird, so I'm constantly changing to 4:3 ratios and adjusting resolution. I've given up so many games on Xbox Live membership because the game won't let me change resolution and makes me see every follicle on a wolf regardless if I need to see it or not. Thanks RGG for letting me accododate.
It's with these videos that i tend to think "thank god i have a very working 2060 and don't have to complain for low settings in my life" cause christ some of these are rough
Don't go thinking the dragon engine games work fine on low-end PC's even with potato graphics, the dragon engine stutters alot especially during pre-rendered cutscenes having the story unplayable, though Yakuza 0 - 5 is completely fine.
The trick to make it look acceptable on low end systems(in my case it was a haswell i5 with a gtx660ti) is to set the texture quality to high setting. I experienced barely noticeable effects on performance, yet it made the game perfectly acceptable from visual standpoint(trees actually had leaves in the beginning rendered cutscene of Kiwami 2 for example). Had to live with 720p 20-30fps though. Went through all of the main story like this but I gave up on side missions.
To make this better, i'm watching this at 144pbon a smartphone. The audio is super muffled, I can't read a quarter the text, and the high def graphics are all burring together. Ar 2:44 i can't see any people. It's a beautiful mess.
good god this is is even worse than 720p lowest settings thats something i truly appreciate about the older dragon engine, that even if your pc was subpar you could still have a decent looking game its wild playing this on 720p lowest seeing fuzzy ass hair then it cuts to 1080p HD prerender of kiryu's flowing hair before he gets stabbed
Dang, I had no idea Like A Dragon actually started on the PS1.
SEGA Saturn, to be exact.
Lmao
@@synexiasaturnds727yearsago7 I'd actually love to see a demake for one of these consoles. Would definitely play.
More like in The sega genesis/mega Drive
1:36 It's like we went back to the original PS2 game.
2:03 actually looks like the original PS2 version also lmao
Bring that shit, Kazuma!
@@Baba-yv6ml What, you think you are better than me?
the PS2 never left us.
The best DS game I’ve ever seen in my life
Tokyo Beatdown.
@@mechashadow
That looks pretty cool actually
1:03 damn Kiryu needs a touch-up on his irezumi (tattoo) on potato settings. Looks more faded than Alan Walker's song.
someone using alan walker and his song for a joke is something new to me, and i think it’s part of what has made my day peak today
@@pisci_a that's rad

Yeah honestly I wish all games had these settings.
sadly even with all those settings, I can't run any yakuza
1. Add low spec pressets for 2010 potatoes
2. Add AVX in every yakuza game since 3 remastered
Bruh

0:18 Leaked Switch port footage
Look and feels like a arcade game that I once played but doesn’t remember the name of it for some reasons….
I’d be legitimately proud of the devs if they could make the switch port run this well
Unrealistic, it isn't running at 23 fps
The cutscene at 0:28 Yagami has boiling outlines like an Ed Edd n Eddy character
Yakuza: Like A Dragon is now available on the Nintendo Switch!
Nah bro, this ain’t the Switch, this is Yakuza on the Wii Mini.
3:13 a security guard ??? 0_o "damn, we got robbed last night where the hell were you?!???" uhhhh *hides the Yakuza 0*
lost judgement with the lowest grapics on full screen looks like a well developed indie game and i love it

How you remember the graphics in your childhood:
The graphics when replaying the game:

my pc severely lags even with low settings
decent specs like those are still potato rigs 😭
@@lukecwolf that is no where near decent...
@@ducky4605they are,I had old laptop with Intel i3 3100 with integrated GPU and 4 rams, now this is real potato pc
@@bebrasmachnayq5691 I've used so many potato pcs, I know when I see one.
When they meant Low graphics settings they REALLY meant LOW graphics settings
No joke I didn't know these games had per-rendered cut scenes. But I guess it makes a lot of sense of how settings changes quickly in Y7 summons
Finally, RGG studios ported the Yakuza/Judgment games on the Switch
1:41 kiryu has seen some stuff that cannot be unseen man
0:57 The Dragon of 144p
0:56 bruh that got me
3:07

i played like this on my laptop, and well, its still Yakuza, so im not complaining
wow yakuza 0 with low settings looks like something off an early 2000's mobile game.
His pc the second he turned down the settings: "LIGHT WEIGHT BABYYYY, LIGHT WEIGHT"
“Who in the world is playing these games on a security monitor?”
The security monitor we don’t see in FNaF:
lol this is me with my potato pc
I have 100 hours in Y7 mostly because it ran like crap on my potato and thus doubled the game time lmao.
10/10 would Ichiban all over the place again.

0:59 dipshit of dojima transformation
It's funny how like here 0:56 is beautiful and all and then BOOM, the reality is potato Kiryu
2:28 So thats why the fnaf movie has all the animatronics look like they took a boof! They are just on low settings!
can't believe they ported yakuza series on PSP 😭😭😭
Lost Judgment Kurohyou 💀💀
1:57 Strangely funny
This video is just my yakuza experience in a nutshell
2:00 This is some Creepypasta shit right here.
Wow, these look like some of the best titles on the PSP!
My first time in Kiwami 2 was 960x540 on low-medium graphics with 20-40 fps. I loved this game.
Finally. Yakuza on Switch
KIWAMI 2 REALLY LOOKS LIKE THE ORIGINAL GAME
I know the feeling playing Yakuza series on Potato PC. That's the reason why I upgrade my PC
Beautiful.
Actually like the vibe it's gives off
You play a Yakuza game on a security monitor when your board as a security guard but also want to get some training in
So nice that Kiwami 2 let's you play with the original PS2 graphics
Reminds me of playing Dark Souls with my Intel HD graphics lol.
Wow, looks like Yakuza 0 is ready to be played on PSP
Truly the PS2 experience
Bro for some reason it looks fucking good
This is just what it's like to play the originals on an actual ps2
It's with these videos that i tend to think "thank god i have a very working 2060 and don't have to complain for low settings in my life"
cause christ some of these are rough
Like A Dragon mobile looking kinda good
but think about how many frames you can get. the frames, jerry.
To make it even more accurate, it has to run in seconds per frame
Yakuza/Like A Dragon Games Switch Port Be Like :
this is how i had to play like a dragon except with some VERY VERY slightly better graphics (and by that i mean mostly just better textures lmfao)
man yk2s lowest settings gave me a scare, just looking at kiryus face gave me the creeps. had to turn up texture one notch to deal with it(I think)
1:31 b o i
thats basically how i played kiwami 2, it wasnt on the lowest, but it wasn't the best
You didnt knew i played so far but now you do
This is what gamers think they see when a game runs at anything less than 60 frames a second
This is how I normally play dragon engine games...
haruka looking like she got a injection of AD-9
You laugh, this is how I actually have to play games on my PC and you laugh?
Don't go thinking the dragon engine games work fine on low-end PC's even with potato graphics, the dragon engine stutters alot especially during pre-rendered cutscenes having the story unplayable, though Yakuza 0 - 5 is completely fine.
When I had a potato, I had to look at the kiwami 2 cutscenes on UA-cam while I played just to understand what was even going on
0:58 this graphics reminded me of ps2 graphic with that low texture tattoo

the switch port of yakuza is looking sick!!!!!
Yakuza 0
For the Nintendo Gameboy Advance
Very informative, thank you :)
"Who the hell is playing these games on a security monitor"
I'm sure people more versed on current events could make a great joke with that
Lot of students and low income families have low spec PCs, so to be able to play these games reasonably well is just astounding.
I like how LJ looks like a PSP port at best, LAD looks like an iPhone 4 game, and everything else looks like a PS2 game lol
Never knew RGG studios made DS ports
To make this better, i'm watching this at 144pbon a smartphone. The audio is super muffled, I can't read a quarter the text, and the high def graphics are all burring together. Ar 2:44 i can't see any people. It's a beautiful mess.
Yakuza Like A My PC
It makes them look like they're supposed to be on the PSP
Potato of Dojima
I sure do love playing yakuza kiwami 2 on my nintendo™ 3ds
This is what the Yakuza series would have been like if it was ported on 3DS
Here I thought I was having it hard playing with gorilla kiryu in yakuza kiwami 2... Yakuza 0 one killed me
even in low graphics your pc run the games better then my pc
Lost judgement? More like Lost Frames. Jesus, where are u, Taco Bell?
1:40 Graphic so bad I thought they were at a korean bbq place doing their 'itadakimasu'
I used play like this on my laptop but with textures set to high
Fun fact: Launching YK2 on a computer with Intel HD 4000 or worse cause eye-bleeding graphic glitches
i had to play every single game like this on my old computer until i got an xbox
It kind of looks like a very detailed PSP game. Kinda makes me nostalgic actually.
2:15 the lost copy of yakuza 0 for nintendo ds
Finally my PC can run the Dragon engine games ❤
For Yakuza 0 did you turn FOV to the max by mistake? Because it's not a low pc setting, but it sure makes the game look worse.
S E G A S A T U R N Y A K U Z A
the switch port looks great!
good god this is is even worse than 720p lowest settings
thats something i truly appreciate about the older dragon engine, that even if your pc was subpar you could still have a decent looking game
its wild playing this on 720p lowest seeing fuzzy ass hair then it cuts to 1080p HD prerender of kiryu's flowing hair before he gets stabbed
1:38 Thats how im playing Yakuza Kiwami 2 rn😿😿 (Cant wait to get a graphic card)
2:14 didnt know they made a gba port of 0
I had to play 6 and Kiwami 2 like this. I don't think I can run 7 or Judgement.
Good news, I can run 7
I really want to play those games but even with low settings i think my laptop is not even able to start it...
sad noises
The graphics in the low settings look like they went back 5 generations
without glasses edition
Like a Brick
