From what I've seen of Yakuza Like a Dragon, it looks like a Japanese GTA clone with turn-based combat and absurd particle effects on combat moves... did not grab my attention.

GTA clone
People have called Yakuza that for years, but anyone that actually plays it for more than five minutes could tell you how absurd the comparison is. There's absolutely nothing similar beyond "open world" (with polar opposite design, and I don't mean visuals) and 'general whackiness'.

Planetar is just drive by trolling. Everytime someone says Yakuza is a Japanese GTA I correct them and say it's a Japanese Shenmue.

If I catch you trolling again in this most sacred forum, you'll be dead before you can blink.
