As low of a point for him as that was, it was obvious he was mostly doing it cause she looked like his old flame who left him. I don't remember if he ever expresses guilt over that though.

Can I decrease the amount of random and inescapable battles in Yakuza 4 by lowering the already obscenely easy difficulty level of Hard to Easy, or will there be an item that lets me completely skip random battles before I get on my second character arc? Because this is driving me insane Yak5 does it better right? Ishin gave you the ability to run, sprint away, you could also pick fights on purpose. This is close to a walk five steps Final Fantasy horror at times, other times I run several blocks without getting anybody angry. e: Ishin on Easy requires more from the player than Yak4 on hard and f these random battles. Running away, dodging the few that can be dodged. Ghosts n Gopniks fucked around with this message at 21:37 on Feb 6, 2015 |

You can spot thugs in the traffic and run behind their backs, but not too close. The reward for 100% the lockers is an item disabling random fights, but I'm not sure you can do it early, and you don't want to open one locker until Taiga's chapter. He needs some sacred tree or something to advance through his boulder-punching training.

Eventually you get really good at spotting the random dudes in crowds who just stand there looking threatening and can either avoid them, or just pass by at a far enough distance to where they can't catch up with you at all. There are also some equippable items that decrease the amount of dudes who come after you, although that might be one of the bonus Utsonomiya items.

They're not that difficult to find for the most part. They're the ones who don't bother moving and stand in the middle of the street.

It's pretty trivial to get an item that reduces random encounters, I managed to get a smelly scarf or whatever out of a locker pretty early on, and I want to say there's a place you can buy them, but I don't remember where.

I haven't played 4 yet, but if it's like the others yeah a few hours in you learn to spot those dudes and you basically never have to get into fights if you don't want to.

Once you sort of reach the expected level for where you are in the story the random encounters fall off a lot, to the point of almost stopping completely.

I'm about finished with the first character, the game is still a huge dick about random battles compared to the pleasing experience that Ishin was  Would make the VLP Ishin deserves if I had time, co-commentator and HD space

Plus they only have 3 or 4 different character models so, yeah, you learn to spot them pretty quickly, too. Once you get to Tanimura though, you'll want to fight as many people as possible because jumping up on a dude's shoulder and breaking his arm mid-fight is awesome. Or throw them into walls face first as Saejima, or or or...Actually, go get drunk and fight as many people as possible.

drat it. I was having fun with Yakuza 2 for a while, but now the input delay is becoming a real nuisance at the end. It's absolutely infuriating to see Kiryu always attacking in the wrong direction and reacting incorrectly to button presses that I did near the end of my combo.

Really loving 3 so far. The minigames are incredibly well done and fun to do compared to the half-assed way that Rockstar's always done them. I haven't minded the "help find the dog" and "find the stolen pocket change" quests in this beat-em-up crime game, it establishes a "normal" kind of life so when poo poo jumps off you know it. It's been way easier to get into fighting in this game after playing Sleeping Dogs, the heat moves are just the most fun thing in video games.

Impossible? I mean it's a text heavy RPG, and there isn't a comprehensive guide or anything as far as I'm aware.

http://www.khhsubs.com/rggishinstorywalkthrough.html  You'll get your storybits from the guide and having a bit of a sixth sense for putting two and two together, the gameplay is golden and easy to figure out. Try the demo from Japanese PSN first. Google translate with these for what khhsubs doesn't cover http://kouryakutsushin.com/ryu-ishin/ http://dswiipspwikips3.jp/ryu_ishin/ in crafting and stuff.

Unless you really, really, really like the battle system that sounds insanely boring. Plus the thing about not really knowing how to progress. Then again, when I was in middle school I played through Pokemon Gold in Japanese for whatever reason despite not at all understanding it.

So far, Dead Souls is way better than I have been led to believe. It's a fun story coupled with actually pretty competent zombie shooting gameplay, as well as some nice Resident Evil style bosses. Plus, Majima is fantastic.

It's one reason I was so shocked when I played Binary Domain later and it WAS competent. It's a little clunky at first, but it actually functions pretty well. There haven't been many times where I've messed up and felt like the controls were the problem. My only big complaint is that I can't make the character snap towards the direction the camera is facing.

The problem is Rockstar and most sandbox games wont make it feel like a living city but a sick parody. United Front could have struck a deal with the hk companies to sell their bread as healing items. But instead all the stores were "generic joint" compared to GTA's parody Hell you see official restaurants in its deliquent brother Kenka Banchou and it does give you rampages as an option as of Blood and Soul where you can fight cops

It almost feels like the team at one point was making a third person shooter for the Saturn, abandoned the project, then decided to resume it for modern consoles without bothering to check if anyone had come up with better control schemes. I had a lot of fun with it, but I totally see how going in assuming that it would play anything like a modern tps could ruin the experience. Still, I'd recommend it for the Majima section alone, even if you don't like the control scheme very much.

Got to say that Majima is one of the reasons I am very much looking toward Zero (importing and will double dip if it comes over).

Basically you wanna look in the zombie's general direction, tap aim, and then fire to rack up headshots.
