Love it. DMC5 looked amazing, in part to the technique they used (plus the amazing detail and animations on each character). So I certainly had nothing against it there. Likewise, Death Stranding doing it is perfectly fine with me, well that and Mads looks so damn badass in his clips so far, so I can't see what zany adventure Kojima cooks up this time.
Oh, and Yakuza. That's been using likenesses and face scanning for years, and while its sometimes caused a couple of problems (Tanimura and Hamura say hi) its just a really cool feature in my eyes - Beat Takeshi was a huge get for the series, even people who were not Yakuza fans were talking to me about this inclusion, and he was so well done in the game. Then you have Taki's Hamura, who was amazing, it still hurts a bit that he was changed in newer versions as he sold that character so dam well, and that smirk of his will never be as good with the new face they used.
All of Dojima's three head goons inn Yakuza 0 were based on likenesses from Japanese movie stars and it was so cool, especially Kuze (who was cool for so many reasons to be fair).
And to balance it out, Kiwami 2 has the worst use in the replacement Takashima. I mean, not the actor, he's great. No, its miscasting him for this particular character - his personality and backstory is that he's a up and coming YOUNG head of Omi. Look at him in the PS2 game, his model reflects that. Now look at him in Kiwami 2, he looks... old. Well, older for sure. Certainly not young... just a little bug bare with that game. Otherwise the series has had a solid track record with them.
Only issue (in Yakuza) with doing this is that it means characters are basically one and done. If you look at the upcoming RGG7 you notice that only 3? (or 2, I forget) characters are using face scan, and for sure you can guess the two (or three) characters almost assured to not make it through the end of the game alive! I'm glad they are moving away from it a bit though, as I want Ichiban's cast to come back for sequels, not just be one and done characters, plus it helps distance them from a Hamura style incident again.
