Ytlaya posted:I like how guns are trivial during player-controlled fights, but realistically deadly during cutscenes. A bad guy will pull out a gun and everyone will just stand there staring at them, waiting to get shot. Sleeping Dogs was great with guns. It takes place in Hong Kong, where guns are super rare even for criminal organizations, so when you get one, it’s treated as a Big Deal. It also lets you headshot dudes for instant kills, which makes them crazy powerful for a brawling game.

So I just realized, for some strange reason, that a character from this 2001 J-Drama I watched back in high school is named Haruka Sawamura : http://asianwiki.com/Strawberry_on_the_Shortcake

Can you buy better spear guns, or are those only gained through the fishing minigame?

At some point a guy shows up in an alley who sells a bunch of rare stuff including a pretty good speargun. IIRC the game makes you notice him so you won't miss it. I don't think it's the actual best one though, maybe you get that from the bar minigame or some other side quest?

Once you make enough progress in Clan Creator, it opens up black market guys in Onomichi and Kamurocho. The Onomichi one has the first speargun that's any good.

I never hosed around with the clan poo poo much, but completing the bar minigame she'll gift you one. And with it I found it fairly trivial to finish the fish.

Captain Walker posted:Very early on in 6 (within the first two chapters) there’s a substory about a little girl in Children’s Park who wants Kiryu to find a certain item for her. I did so, after jumping through an appropriately Yakuza number of hoops, and she left the map, and the task list tells me she seemed happy. However, the substory isn’t complete (according to the awards list). I figured I needed to go away and come back later. Update on this: I’m in the Finale and still can’t find where to go to finish this substory (iirc it’s number 3 on the Awards list). Sanity check: Children’s Park is the one on west Shichifuku St., right? The map in 6 doesn’t have it as a landmark anymore. I’ve gone there during both day and night in-game, to no avail. I can’t help but think the kid saw the writing on the wall and left Japan entirely, probably taking the final cat from Onomichi with her (again, I’ve been to the area where Kai apparently spawns all three times of day on multiple occasions, and I’ve yet to see a kitty). As I mentioned before, I imported a save from the demo, but I’m pretty sure that save was on the beach in Okinawa during the prologue. Am I missing something here besides “just keep trying?”

It's crazy how good it is. What level do I gotta get before the intermediate spear fishing level unlock? I can only kill this empoeror squid so many times.

Detective No. 27 posted:It's crazy how good it is. I think it has more to do with starting the next substory. I only did the beginner and intermediate levels once for the substories, and then farmed the advanced for the completion award. Edit: If you're not seeing the next substory, it might be because you haven't done enough baseball. The reward for the intermediate substory is a player. Same reason you can't do the bar chat minigame until you've done some baseball. Raimondo fucked around with this message at 20:41 on Jun 5, 2018 |

It doesn't have to do with your level, you unlock the other routes through side quests. Just run across town and come back and see if it shows up. If not you might need to progress the story a little.

Ah. I'll be sure to hit up some baseball next.

if anyone needs help with baseball, here's a dumb thing I wrote because I too tired to find the guide someone better wrote but not tired enough to write several paragraphs about fake video game baseball:GANDHITRON posted:I don't remember what the rewards were for the baseball sim, so I can't tell you if it's worth it or not. But even if you don't know poo poo about the game, you can make it through just fine. I didn't know anything about baseball either, but eventually it clicked after I skimmed a guide in the Games Y6 thread. Don't have a link for you, sorry.

I'm losing my mind I'm in the Finale and I am missing only a few Awards. The ones that are left are driving me up the goddamn wall, and I've spent the last real-time week working on them. Not all of the remaining Awards are things I care about. I can wait till Premium Adventure to grind out max level in spearfishing. The Puyo Puyo stuff I just don't care about; I'll probably end up doing it anyway, because nothing says "I love Yakuza" like repeatedly getting dunked on by that stupid magical girl. The three things I actually want to do are: Befriend Kai (cat) in Onomichi: He just doesn't spawn. I've tried approaching the Hirose HQ from the south, west, and north, at all three times of day, and I have never seen a kitty nearby. This one is the least important since not completing the Cat Cafe doesn't gate other major content like the substories, but I still want the gear reward. Substory 3 - Haruka's Biggest Fan: I gave her the picture in like Chapter 2, before going to Onomichi the first time, and the task has been sitting in my objective list since then with the description "Ayaka seemed thrilled". She hasn't appeared in Children's Park. I've approaching the park from the taxi stand nearby, walking all the way from the parking lot on the east side of the street, and even sneaking up on her by going through the sewers. Again, she just doesn't want to spawn. Substory 24 - A Man Rises Up: I need to beat Sodachi once more as a random encounter before he challenges me to the final showdown. I'm led to believe that like Saigo, he shows up as a purple arrow on the map. Unlike Saigo, I have yet to even see Sodachi a third time, and since I've run all over Kamurocho trying to get Ayaka to show up, I am concerned he may never appear. My only theory is that the unfinished Substory 3 is somehow conflicting with this once, since you apparently go to Children's Park for the last Sodachi battle. I'm starting to get paranoid that I've screwed myself by starting with the demo (which I only downloaded and played after it was fixed by Sega), but I'm 100% that I hadn't even left Okinawa when the full game came out and I imported my save. Did I get hit by some kind of bug? What is going on??
|
# ? Jun 6, 2018 23:24 |

Yeah it seems you got bugged. Both those substories can be active at the same time. Typically, Sodachi would overwrite HarukaFan since he’s closer to the entrance. For reference, you’re in the park in the top left near the former Pocket Circuit stadium yes?

Have you been going during the daytime, too? That might affect the Haruka's fan substory.
|
# ? Jun 7, 2018 01:51 |
|
I also didn't see the final part of Haruka's Biggest Fan until almost the very end of the game. She just didn't appear there until suddenly she did. No idea what triggered it but she did appear for me eventually.

Just advanced the plot by going to the Navy Apartments. The next objective is to take a taxi to a certain location, but it looks like I still have full run of both cities. I’ll try looking for Ayaka and Sodachi again. e: I'm now at the point of no return, though I have backup saves on the last day in Onomichi and right before taking the taxi from Kamurocho. It looks like I still have the run of both cities, but I can no longer change the time of day. Does that affect anything? I did end up reinstalling the game, for all that matters.

Bahaha. Only Kiryu could stumble into managing a baseball team and not recognize one of the world's most famous baseball players standing in front of him.

Quote-Unquote posted:Both of those sub stories have to be during the day. They stopped appearing for me near the end of the game but came back in premium adventure mode. It’s now daytime in Premium Adventure. No sign of Ayaka yet; I’ll keep looking for Sodachi around town since I feel like he must be somehow stopping Ayaka from reappearing. I did manage to find the final Onomichi cat; he’s kind of a jerk since he requires five cans of food to max out and you can only feed him three times per visit. Even gold tuna didn’t help; it fills him exactly as much as the beef miso. Also, it looks like he doesn’t spawn at all in the Finale until the story takes you back to Kamurocho. I also maxed out my spearfishing level; I am now the Dolphin of Dojima. I even ended up with enough money to buy that horrifically overpriced talisman from the black market hombre in Onomichi. Now I just gotta save up for the even more expensive amulet from the Kamurocho sewer dweller. I know that stuff is very transparently end-game equipment, but come on, the third most expensive thing you can buy is literally half the price of the most expensive thing. Even the million-yen clear bonus wasn’t enough. Bring back the decadent 80s!!

Detective No. 27 posted:Did you get his text about meeting him in Children's Park? No, that's the thing. I fought him outside RIZAP, and then again as a Troublr mission. Haven't seen him since, or the little girl in the same park who I gave the photo of Haruka. It's really weird since I run into Saigo constantly when I'm running around Hiroshima. My working theory is that one or both substories got bugged out somehow because I imported a save from the demo. I might have to bite the rubber bullet and start a New Game+. Normally that'd be a dealbreaker for me but I enjoyed the new engine and all the quality-of-life improvements a lot, and I've already completed basically everything else besides Puyo. edit: Has anyone actually completed the whole game on Legend? How was it? I already have the Gold trophy, but I cheesed it using the method I imagine most players did (save in New Serena before the point of no gameplay recording, crank the difficulty up to max, skip all cutscenes and abuse healing items in the final sequence). I could just turn the difficulty down to Easy, sure, but with 300s across the board in stats, all buyable skills, and every equippable item except the Dragon God Amulet, it's not like anything besides bosses will pose any threat whatsoever.
