This mod is for those who want a more consistent casting for Kiryu and works on bringing back his old voice from Yakuza 1 and 7.

It only works for English Audio.

Adds mostly Gameplay voices for Taichi Suzuki; the Taxi Driver! 

Compatibility
This mod can be used with the "Japanese Kiryu over English Dub" Created by LiahKnight

To use both mods: 

• Drag and drop the contents from the "sound_en" and "stream_en" folders of the "English Taichi Suzuki (Kiryu)" mod into the "Japanese Kiryu over English Dub" mod folders, RESPECTIVELY (meaning, sound_en file contents of the English Kiryu go into the sound_en file of the Japanese Kiryu mod). (Contents from the sound_en folder have the extension ".acb" and should be placed in the same folder, as well as the contents from the stream_en have the extension ".awb". You should be asked to replace files if done correctly.)
• When asked to replace files, click "Yes" This will remove battle voices and talking voices (etc.) from Japanese Kiryu to English Taichi Suzuki
• Run SRMM and you should have a mix of Takaya Kuroda (speeches) and Darryl Kurylo (gameplay)
  

This is only if you'd like to use both mods.

Update Version 2.3
 - Added Darryl Kurylo Robomichio voices (with robotic voice)
- Added lines for when Kiryu is in a QTE section
- Updated a few lines to match better

Update Version 2.2
Added and replaced more voice lines and updated others:
- Added speech files for when meeting Date for the first time, and when meeting the Legendary Hostess 
   Note: after those sequences have been played, it will revert to the original files.
- Added lines to the Samurai job and when taking selfies
- Added pound mate call lines and Asakura pound mate lines
- Replaced lines for the resort and batting minigame for more references and to fit better

Update Version 2.1
Post-release of Infinite Wealth, more files were added for minigames and Darryl Kurylo has been added to those minigames now.
Some lines were added as references to Yakuza 1's dub.

Replaces:
- Fighter Voices (Now adds voices for various actions! Some voices haven't been changed such as the Firedancer job)
- Talking voices with variations used from Yakuza 1!
- Karaoke Talking voices (Karaoke menu and Karaoke results, not the singing nor chanting)
- Voices in the Essence of Friendship and Essence of Two Dragons (Currently testing his other special moves per job)
-  Minigame voices (Darts, Golf, and Batting, etc.)
- Buddy & Common voices (Opening chests, eating, random lines while walking around)

This mod tries to replace as much as possible while maintaining good context and matching the original English lines.


This is no longer a Work In Progress mod. It will receive updates when available, if any issues are found, or until the game's full release.

If you have any suggestions or comments, letting me know what could fit better or which lines I forgot to change, please let me know :)


I hope you enjoy!
(Use SRMM)
