I'm doing the bouncer missions for Kiwami 2, and I beat the last 3 Amon missions on normal, but the hard and legend difficulties didn't unlock. Do I need to wait until a later chapter for those to show up? I'm only on chapter 10.

For everyone saying you need to do the other missions at higher difficulties too...I did. And I've done everything else mentioned here as well to win (use infinite weapons, best armor, etc) so I really don't know what's up. Unless they won't open up unless you're playing on a higher difficulty or something. I'm playing on easy because fuuuuuck trying that on legend.

And yeah the party/talk/love thing seems to be much more impactful than what they want the hostess to look like. Yeah, the cabaret minigame can be broken by just grinding it out. If you casually play it 25 times or something while on your phone, stats stop mattering.

Gaius Marius posted:I wish there was a Yakuza game with no plot and no fights. I just wanna wonder around and eat Japanese food. Funnily enough that is most of Shenmue 1. At least the better parts, because I've always hated the fighting in that series. Yakuza being the games that I call "series that plays how people wanted Shenmue to play"

Gort posted:I think I beat him by getting the skill that gives you heat for blocking, blocking a lot of his attacks, and doing heat moves on him. Also make sure you have the skill that gives you heat for being in the red, and the skill that lets you re-block after your block is broken. I did beat it like 20 minutes after I posted and after hanging out with the Master I crush all.

I just finished the Saejima chapter's an hour ago and I came to the realization that rushing to do the substories and level up was the best way to get through any of the more annoying battles. I ended Akiyama and Saejima at level 19 by the time I was done with them.

Did they run out of money when making Yakuza 4? All of a sudden they're cutscenes with VO with the in-game engine, which didn't happen before.

If you go to the manholes, Saejima just says he doesn't need to right now. Welp. Progress the story more and it will open back up.

GhostDog posted:I took a breather and the game's suggestion to change to easy and made it through. Saito was still annoying as gently caress even on easy. Doing his belly flop attack and literally flying a 90 degree turn to track me, good god what a piece of poo poo. Enjoy missing a trophy, sucker! You'll remember this on your death bed. that was by far the worst section of any Yakuza game I've ever played, but a leveled-up Saejima is the best fighter in the game at the end

Buy a bunch of the fullness-reducer from the gym and eat sushi gin.

I've been avoiding this thread because I haven't played Y7 yet (and probably won't for another 6 months) but I just wanted to post this. The NYTimes has been doing "how to feel like you're in X" articles this past month for homebodies. They did Tokyo yesterday. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/01/travel/tokyo-vacation-at-home.html?action=click&module=Well&pgtype=Homepage§ion=Travel They have that photo at the top of the article and mention Yakuza right at the bottom. quote:While Japan’s most internationally famous video gaming figure may be an Italian plumber with a taste for mushrooms, there are also plenty of games more grounded in real-life Tokyo than Super Mario Bros. Brian Ashcraft, an Osaka-based senior writer at the gaming website Kotaku, recommends the expansive “Yakuza” series, which follows Kazuma Kiryu as he makes his name in the underworld. The Yakuza games are action-packed, but with dance battles, karaoke sessions and laugh-out-loud dialogue, they are also unabashedly silly. “This year has resulted in all events and trips to Tokyo being canned,” Mr. Ashcraft said. “The Yakuza games do a fantastic job of bringing parts of the city to life. These obsessive, digital recreations mimic the idea of Tokyo. For me, that’s good enough.”

Always feels good to do around 2 hours of Saejima's substories and treasure map hunting in Y5 to get a game crash error and have to redo it all...I'm so drat glad they put in autosaves.

I've reached the final chapter of Y5, and I'm doing some cleanup before I go to the final battle. I really liked all of the mini games and sidestories... except cochin racing. Just reminds me of Shenmue 3 turtle racing.

There is a new Taiwanese show on Netflix called Light the Night that's set in a 1980s Taipei cabaret club. I watched the first three episodes with my wife and kept getting real Y0 vibes from parts of it.
