Solo en version digital? Tremenda decepcion, no lo sabia, bueno, al menos lo podremos jugar.

En el foro oficial de Sega hay uno que ha traducido una entrevista que le han hecho a Nagoshi, en inglés. A quien le apetezca, aquí va:

Cita:The masterpiece born from antithesis to the world of the gaming is reborn again after 10 years


Ryu Ga Gotoku Kiwami is based on the first game in the series which came out in 2005. Please talk about the details that lead to this decision.


Nagoshi: I always had the feeling that I'd like to make the first Ryu Ga Gotoku again one day. However, I was always wrapped up in making the latest game in the series, and the timing just wasn't there. Now that we're sitting at 10 years after the first game came out, if we're ever going to do it, now's probably the only time.

The time has come, I suppose, huh?

Nagoshi: When we start working on the new games, we always look back on what we've been working on before, but I've always keenly felt our limitations when I look back on the stuff that came out on the older systems. The hardware specs from back then are nothing compared to what we have now. Not only that, but our skill level was still rather wanting. As a result, to put things bluntly... "Man, those games are terrible". Still, when I think about how "terrible" those games are, there's another aspect to consider, and that's how much we've grown as developers. If we could ever go back and do Ryu Ga Gotoku over again, we'd be able to make something absolutely wonderful. And with the opportunity to do so becoming more and more possible, we eventually struggled on to make the big reveal.


The subtitle for the game is Kiwami (Extreme). What kind of meaning is included with that?

Nagoshi: Because we're using the game engine for the latest game, Ryu Ga Gotoku Zero, we're able to take the fruits of what we've cultivated over 10 years and apply it to things like Game Modes and controls, making the quality the best... the extreme. "Kiwami Quality" is the meaning behind attaching Kiwami as a subtitle.

So, is it good to think of this as a remake?

Nagoshi: Obviously, the main thread of the story will be the same as it was in the original game. However, we've skillfully constructed extra scenes which will complement the original. Moreover, since our last representation of Kamurocho was the 1980s version from Ryu Ga Gotoku Zero, we couldn't use the data from that game and had to rebuild Kamurocho all over again. Because of that, it has the feeling of making a brand new game from scratch.


On top of making a new game, you've probably been revisiting the 10-year-old Ryu Ga Gotoku multiple times during development. What's the number one impression of the game you've been left with?

Nagoshi: Ryu Ga Gotoku was really made as an antithesis to what was going on with game development at the time. During a time in the industry when everyone was looking westward, the market for Ryu Ga Gotoku was limited to Japan and targeted strictly at adult males. We gave absolutely no thought to targeting a female audience. Our CERO rating was D (17 or above), so there was a lot of "stimulating" expressions in the game. The story was low-down-and-dirty drama lived out by real flesh-and-blood characters... I think it's for these reasons the game really stood out like an odd duck. The first Ryu Ga Gotoku Game really focused on the end goal and cut out a lot of the surplus, coming across as a really sour-looking game. Thinking about it now, we really managed to put up a fight with the game in that condition. I can look back on some of our decisions and be amazed that they turned out so well.


Ryu Ga Gotoku was originally introduced under the name Project J. Can you still remember that feeling 10 years later?


Nagoshi: The core of the series hasn't changed. However, as time marches on and the series grows larger, our female fanbase has increased in size, not to mention the fact that we're getting lots of fans from overseas. We're grateful for the fact that a large amount of opinions are being expressed about the series. However, if we just blindly accepted and implemented every viewpoint, the heart of the series just wouldn't beat as strong. From this, for the past 10 years, we've been very selective in adopting the suggestions we've been appreciative to receive.


What was impressive about the scenario in the first game was the participation of the author Hase Seishu.

Nagoshi: Back then we just started writing with the big question mark hanging over our heads about how well our script-writing abilities would hold out. However, as we went along, it was clear that there were some parts we just wouldn't be able to get done on our own. Because of that, it really worked in our favor and the game's favor to borrow the professional power of the actors, actresses and the author. We received a lot of harsh criticism from Hase Seishu-san, and I really felt our incompetence shine through. However, receiving that criticism was an important step in continuing into where we are today.


This is probably why the story is being expanded this time, huh.

Nagoshi: While there can be no denying that the story was completely wrapped up back when it first came out, I always had the thought that we could have really evoked some more profound feelings. You know, really add some of the drama we couldn't completely hash out last time. I was always going to be writing a section of the scenario for this release, but the thing I really wanted to add was the drama involving Nishikiyama. There was just so much we didn't sketch out about his backstory during the first game, and now would be the best time to do it. This was my first proposal, and the next thing I wanted to add was more of one of the series' most popular characters, Majima Goro. I wanted to establish his connection with the main character Kiryu after the events of Ryu Ga Gotoku 0. There's lots of opportunities to add big, new episodes, and making cuts to scenes and adding new ones makes it easy to understand "Oh, that's the way it should be!" We can really assemble a well-put together and easy-to-follow drama.

Por cierto, no sale en la entrevista pero en Yakuza 6 saldrá ¡Takeshi Kitano ni más ni menos! El tío más indicado para estar en Yakuza xD.

Hola.

A ver como les sale el remake del RGG original, porque a pesar de que es de lo mejor de PS2, van a tener que meter mucho contenido para que esté a la altura de las actuales entregas.

En RGG 6 ya parece que se confirma que en principio Kiryu no será jugable. Al salir en 2016 seguramente se ambiente en el mismo año y para entonces Kiryu tendría ya 48 años.

Un saludo.

Led┬áZeppelin Hola.

Hombre, con 48 años no eres un abuelo precisamente, aunque no estés en tu mejor época físicamente. Yo sí le pondría jugable, aunque su historia sea más corta o lo que sea.

Hola.

Rozaría lo paranormal que siguiese siendo ese ser con un físico casi tan perfecto que supera a cualquier otro humano del juego en potencial físico.

Yo le haría jugable en el premium adventure en con skin de RGG 5 y Kiwami.

Un saludo.

Cuando veo pelis de este tío no paro de acordarme de la serie Yakuza (en las pelis de Outrage me hacía el mismo lío con los nombres de personas, familias y clanes que en los juegos... ).

Aunque de su filmografía me quedo sobre todo con Zatoichi. Peliculón.

La "estrategia" de retrasar en occidente títulos terminados durante años no podría ser tan nefasta como en el caso de Yakuza con el ritmo que llevan. ¿Cuántos Yakuzas hay ya acumulados que tendrían que salir en occidente próximamente? Tiene que haber ya como 5 títulos, normal que luego sólo salgan la mitad como mucho.

Hola.

No los retrasan, simplemente, tras Yakuza Dead Souls, SEGA decidió abandonar la franquicia en Occidente. SEGA está actualmente interesada en el mercado Chino, donde Yakuza 0 ha funcionado bastante bien, muy por encima de las expectativas de SEGA.

Es Sony quien tiene que decidir si tirar adelante con la saga en Occidente o abandonarla.

Un saludo.
