Thanksgiving Like A Dragon

It’s November time for me and at last; I can combine my love of Thanksgiving turkey with beating down random folks in Japan. Of course - I’m alluding to the release of Yakuza: Like A Dragon which comes out on November 10th - a game I will be playing on day one. I was worried that my time this month would be split between the holidays, Yakuza and Cyberpunk 2077. Of course luckily (and I mean that very sarcastically) Cyberpunk 2077 won’t be released now until December 10th 2020. This will give me ample time to complete Yakuza inside and out while still doing my usual Android game research as I’ve mentioned in my recent vlogs on the YouTube channel.

For the non gamers who visit the site, I do have some rabbit holes for you to go down this month with a couple of YouTube channels I picked up recently that I found interesting enough to add to The List. The first one is going to be tech related and talking about gear reviews - specifically microphones. For any of you fellow content creators (or those thinking about starting their own journey into creation); it’s a valuable resource of information to have from a guy who’s enthusiastic about teaching and reviewing microphones “off the beaten path”. I swear to all things holy and hellish that if someone recommends to me (or anyone else starting out their content) a Blue Yeti microphone yet again - I think I might commit a murder. So to prevent that Pre Crime from happening, please take a look at the channel!

I have an absolute fetish (kinky I know) for travel videos from the perspective of the every day person. Not the overly edited, overly staged, and unrealistically sanguine stuff you get on most programs on official networks. I just like seeing stuff from someone’s point of view and (hopefully) they have something interesting to say (or show) during the journey. So one random night I came across this YouTube channel called Hard Officers (get your mind out of the gutter) and it has 2 likeable eclectic hosts Zack and Kyle who live in Japan and travel to random game stores. I highly recommend the playlist of their journeys to just sit back and loose yourself in some retro games. I do hope they will eventually pick up back their adventures and start releasing some new content for 2021.

Ending off the update with something NSFW since 99% of the people visiting this site come from YouTube. Here is a picture of Vanessa from SF Girls on Nutaku (NSFW). This is a game I tried out recently (since someone suggested it was F2P friendly) and unfortunately did not past my tests as noted on the previous month’s update. Still the game definitely has some charm to it, and I hope the developers well off enough to make something in the future a bit more accessible. If you want to give them game a try, you can create a free Nutaku account and register for the game here (NSFW). Also note it’s available on Android as well - but you have to use the Nutaku App to download it.
