Soon, maybe all the Yakuza bucks will finally get us a Binary Domain 2.

I'm sure the game is going to try and trick me into sympathising with her eventually, but I want to state for the record that Ms. Park is a real piece of poo poo.

Also for the locker keys in chapter 3, do I want to wait and get them with Akiyama or do Haruka and Akiyama share an inventory? since Haruka doesn't have combat I figure ill want the items for him.

So to quote near every non Japanese person ever, what the gently caress is up with pachinko? Like, I know what it is on paper, but I have no idea how I'm ACTUALLY supposed to play these machines. I spent like 3 grand on the Virtua Fighter pachinko machine and thought I was doing well because I was progressing the...story??? but somehow I got zero balls for it and was a chump.

Tatum Girlparts posted:So to quote near every non Japanese person ever, what the gently caress is up with pachinko? At the heart of it, a pachinko game is like a slot machine. You put money in and hopefully enough balls go through to eventually trigger a win. That's really all there is to it, it's just a slot machine, you put the money in, you hope you get a jackpot after enough time, the flashy graphics distract you from the fact that you're throwing away all those child support payments on a CGI Aladdin game.

It's good when balls go in the good hole and bad when they go in the bad hole at the bottom. Try to get most of your balls to land in the good hole.

Yes. You also wanna try and get as many extra balls as possible.

The best compliment that I can pay this game is that I really want there to be a post-game substory where, as Saejima, I get to take the deputy warden out for a long night of Korean BBQ and batting practice. And maybe also form The A-Team with him and my prison roomies. But NEVER MIND THAT poo poo BECAUSE NOW I'M FIGHTING A BEAR.

I bet the same two people they tasked with translating Five just rolled onto Zero as soon as they were done. Who's to say the process need stop there? Actually, once someone hits the English credits I'd be curious to see how many people are credited as 'Translators/Localizers.

I still want my Binary Domain x Yakuza crossover game, where Big Bo and Cain has to team up with cyborg Kiryu and Majima against an army of evil robots in the bustling streets of Neo-Kamurocho.

I just started chapter 2-4 and this is already my favorite Yakuza. It feels like at least the two subgames I've played are as big and dense as Kamurocho used to be. I love how the two characters both fight completely differently and have a ton of different minigames and subquests and whatnot. Makes it feel a lot more like different games vs Yakuza 4, in which the different chapters and protags felt kinda samey.

Has anyone from these parts done a good LP of Binary Domain that I can watch on YouTube? I tried playing it when it was free with PS+ but it didn't quite take with me.

You can check the master list of SA LPs: http://lparchive.org/lpmaster/ But the answer is yes: http://lparchive.org/Binary-Domain/ I think it's well worth watching for the series of wacky twists at the end. Sindai fucked around with this message at 01:06 on Dec 13, 2015 |

Shame too, it's honestly one of the better third person shooters I've played behind maybe Vanquish. But yeah, it is pretty much the definition of a cult-classic, with a small but dedicated fanbase. Much like the Yakuza games for that matter.

There are a few minor errors like how they call the shotguns you use in Saijima's chapter double-barreled rifles, but it's good overall.

I enjoyed talking about Hokkaido dialect with the hostess at the beginning of Saejima's section. I thought that was localized pretty well.

Yea all in all it's a good translation, the problem is unlike past things that are like 'well SEGA thought people couldn't handle a Japanese based trivia game', Manzai is super Japanese and super different from what 90% of non-Japanese people view as a modern comedy thing. I fuckin love it but yea, that's gotta be a bitch to translate

There was a cab driving mission where your fare was a foriegner and you had to tell them stuff about Japanese and translate stuff. That was a lot of guessing. Also I am loving Saejima's sub-stories a lot more than Kiryu's. A car crashed at a mall? FIGHT A BEAR. Plus brutalizing people to help the Little Match Girl, being a Battle Santa, all that.

Yea I love Kiryu's story because it's basically the only place his character could have gone at this point to just be full on self imposed exile but holy poo poo is Saejima just insane and fun along with the good main story.

I want a Yakuza game set in the late 70s where you play as a punk rock biker gang dude who just happens to be modeled after and voiced by Seiji from Guitar Wolf, who also does the soundtrack.

When I got the westerner I thought it was going to be a slam dunk but instead I got them all wrong. I assume that in the original version he quizzes you on English instead. Has anybody managed to beat the cop in the sports car? He is ridiculously fast and the regular trick of saving everything for the final lap doesn't work when he's got a solid lead on you for the whole race.
