Same with the street fights. Always the same guy with a white or baby blue sleeveless shirt and a bicep tattoo; the CPU fighting in the common arenas prior to challenging them, plus the CPU fighting/cutscenes of the 3 mini bosses--even Baihu. Pretty sure i also did notice, at most, a few recycled NPCs who follow Ryo to Kowloon, too, aside from toy capsule guy. Not until this year, though, so it speaks to how well even the less intricate NPCs were ahead of time haha.
Yokosuka daily life routines just don't fit into Hong Kong, anyway, regardless of being a foreigner. Simply too big; the hustle bustle lends itself moreso realistic to reality, as well. Besides, the more detailed immersion of the first game breaks when you see Megumi walking to bus for school, then appearing at the shrine on her kitten duty moments later.
