I will never understand why SEGA is not pushing Yakuza more in the west.

Same here. Yakuza was what got me through waiting for a Shenmue sequel. I prefer it to most sandbox games out there and the gameplay is perfect. |
Yep. Too bad the franchise isn't very popular in west. It's a really underated franchise.

Big time. Probably one of the reasons why Sega stopped localising this series. It feels like unless the game is GTA or assassins creed, it will struggle in the western world.

I think that people were expecting an open world game like GTA then the first game came out. Also i thing the name isn't helping at. When they see ''Yakuza'' strange things are jumping into their heads. I don't know why Sega didn't choose to leave title as it is for the west.

i think so too. no tv-spots by yakuza in usa/europe. Yakuza has all - a amaaaazing story with interesting characters, a good fight-system with a great world und many jrpg-skills. Maybe with Yakuza Zero, more people play it on PS4 this year then. In Yakuza Zero, its very dark - the moments in Kamurocho ^^ Yakuza 6 is now my Most Wanted Number 1 with Persona 5 <3 Really awesome, Sega. Y6 = cant wait!! Haruka looks great < 3


machina, "ugly-pictures" has every game, if you search.
Look the video or play the demo - then you know how awesome the game looks like :) i'm in NeoGaf and Gematsu and yes, every person love the new Yakuza 6-Graphic. (have played the demo). have fun and wish you a great weekend = )

The game is only at 65% of what the final product will look like. So, there is much room for improvement yet.

I think it's a combination of marketing and what you said. They probably think it will play like Mafia and GTA, and you will be able to drive around and kill people and have police chase after you etc.
As for the name, I don't think Like a Dragon would work in the west. however, on that note, did you watch the film?
"The best looking game I have ever seen" ...
Of course is a nice looking game but how easily impressionable is some people is way more impressive than the actual look of game.
