I think the sales are pretty good, or they should be considering just about every major YouTube reviewer has basically said "this game is loving incredible". I thought I was gonna finish Kiryu's first chapter tonight, and then I discovered slot car racing. WHY IS THIS SO FUN Is there supposed to be an embargo against streaming this? I noticed that everyone who streams it (including when I tried) has the "comments cannot be displayed because you entered a blocked scene" message. I'd hate my streaming career to get shut down right as I start it...

People were longing for a game that says "this is what Japanese Game Devs can do when they are not porting games to the Vita which makes up mostly of horrible shovelware. Gio wanted someone that gives people reason to buy a PS4 and Yakuza 0 and 6 and by far definitions on why you should buy one. The last 6 years had been a case of disappointment for those who like Japanese games but not crazy enough to buy the shovelware crap from Tamsoft or CH.

Even if you somehow thought that was true, I'm pretty sure the critically-and-commerically hailed Dark Souls/Bloodborne games would count as the 'proof that Japanese game developers can do well" before Yakuza would.

I really like the Completion List this time around, what with it being less exhaustive about what it wants from you, being linked to Completion Points that you cash in for unique bonuses, and the game actually telling you if you've completed one, but I hate that there seem to be a bunch of "gotcha" ones. One in particular that bugs me is the one for the UFO Catcher, where it asks for 5 unique items and when you complete it they bump it up to 10 but there's no in-game listing as far as I can tell that says which UFO Catcher items you've already collected. I do like that the List itself seems to be geared towards getting you to see the newest mini-game content rather than bashing your face into the entire plethora of it. The Coliseum getting drummed out to general completions and simple Yen Earned objectives on perennial rear end in a top hat games like Baseball while new games like Disco Dancing and Slot Car Racing get full treatment for CP is a great idea, mainly because gently caress the batting cages.

I bought it on a trip there ages ago, but my attempts to play it never met with any great success. I've been playing along with Egomaniac's LP and it's been a pretty good time. It's crazy how much they improved on 2 and made it feel like a real game in just one iteration. http://lparchive.org/Ryuu-ga-Gotoku-Kenzan/

At least with Thug training I could knock him down and cave in the old mans rib cage. I just completed chapter 4.

Except that he does that bullshit block-dodge that leaves you wide open to whatever he feels like doing due to the slow recovery. And honestly I would have forgiven that if he didn't have so much HP that it just makes it a slog.

Majima's nunchaku spin has some super armor, and you can turn to track a guy you're fighting with it to some extent. It's not foolproof, but I did cheese through most of his weapon training with it.

I wish any of Majimas styles were good against Mr. Shakedown. They have so many recovery animations that can gently caress you up, i don't feel safe fighting them without consumables unlike with kiryu

I'm not sure what I did, but I just had my game stop responding to inputs in the cabaret girl customization screen right after I did the first rival battle. I'm so mad right now. I spent so much goddamn time getting my princess perfectly pretty, and didn't save immediately after the battle. I guess that's as good a sign as any to quit playing for the day.

Brawler is pretty good, two, three safe hits, backoff , repeat. If he does the windup punch, you can go for a full combo.

the only thing I dislike about the game so far is any mission that's like "fetch me X" and then I have to go to like 5 loving convenience stores to find out which one sells your dumbass candy box/beer/dildo. I think it only happened twice with the homeless dudes and the real estate thing so next time I'm just using an FAQ for that poo poo, it's annoying.

I cannot win the chicken. I cannot do it. I played 20 sets of 10 and best I can do is two and then I choke. This sucks I finally did it on the last 3 sets after two hours. Trick is hitting two pixels off center with 98/100 power. I'm legit good at the ufo catcher tho. I spent hours on that. Jack-Off Lantern fucked around with this message at 17:11 on Jan 29, 2017 |

mr. shakedown gets really loving tough after you beat him 4 times. He gets a running grab move that instantly kills you even on easy and it's pretty much impossible to dodge on like half the areas you can encounter him in. This whole mechanic sucks.

To be fair, with a secret wallet you lose nothing. The running grab is highly telegraphed and I never got hit by that, I lose by being too greedy. Sotenbori has one with 1,5 billion yen, I've defeated them 8 times or so and his healthbar is deep purple and it just takes too long. The bowling thing is horse poo poo , cause you cannot get the building without winning Nugget

Stelas posted:This but 'use different HEAT moves'. Man, that'll suck. If you press triangle on the CP Checklist, it switches to a list of all the collectivles. You can check what Heat moves you've done in particular. It's all itemized and broken down by character and style too. If you press triangle on the ability upgrade screen (the actual grid) it'll also give you an overview of what heat moves you actually know. Getting Majima will probably make it work faster though, since it's stabby things galore. plz dont pull out posted:Sorry if it's been asked already, but where are the slot car races located?

They're not marked originally, but there's a small park in the northwest (really north of the mach bowl) and there should be a dude who will introduce it to you and then mark it on the map as a diversion

I think it only happened twice with the homeless dudes and the real estate thing so next time I'm just using an FAQ for that poo poo, it's annoying. Ha, I just did the homeless fetch quest last night and I actually loved it for some reason though I didn't end up wasting any time, I got two of the items from the Poppo with the named girl in it near the park, then took a cab up to M Store, then took a cab back down to Don Quixote for the Champagne like the game told me to. Along the way, I ran into and resolved like 3 substories, which I think is intentional design. It seems very well put together to where as long as you keep taking different routes around town for the story stuff you'll literally run right into the substories. The little quest to get the kid his copy of Totally Not Dragon Quest 3 was great. Everything is great. 5 really didn't so much feel like an "upgrade" to 4 as it was just "4 but with more locations" but half the locations were pretty lame (Saejima's town suuuuuuuucks). This game feels like the first time they really went into it thinking "we need to change up a bunch of poo poo and drag this series forward", especially with things like CP which make it actually tempting to get the Platinum instead of just an insane pipe dream. I've played 12 hours and I'm not even in chapter 3 yet. I can't imagine this won't end up being my GOTY. e: I'm pretty sure one of the sidequests involved me helping get Guitar Wolf their big break precision fucked around with this message at 20:19 on Jan 29, 2017 |
