Asked this before, but re-asking with a twist: so there's a level cap at 20 until I finish some event down the road. When I finish that event and bump the level cap to 25, will the game give me all the extra XP I've piled up to that point? Or will it say, "Shucks, sorry you finished all the racing and substories, but I'm chucking that XP. Go grind in street brawls to get the extra 5 levels, thanks."

Go grind in street brawls, regardless of the fact that breaking the level cap doesn't give you that piled up XP. For what it's worth the Amon fight gives about two and a half levels worth of XP, apparently.

Edit: Not a big deal to save the side stories for later, my daughter is eager to see the part with Haruka so I may as well speed through the story missions.

Street brawls give about 500xp per enemy at the end (even more with a certain armor) so they are pretty quick to grind with, and levels start taking over 30k xp. Saving side stories is definitely optimal, but you'll be lucky to get a single level out of them at the end. None of the characters except Akiyama really need the extra levels/skills though.

She's as tall as most of the full blown adults in the game except for the other playable characters who are all giants of course. It's crazy looking haha Just got to Akiyama, wish he didn't still have heat moves that go on way too long. That man is fully dead Akiyama, you can stop kicking him now. Please.

Back to the only major female character in the series being in the completely helpless protectee of the player character, just the way Japanese games are meant to be! Guuh...

Yakuza 6 is about Haruka, Kaoru and my bro Hana stopping Beat Takeshi's evil plans. Also I still refuse to believe Kazama Kiryu didn't teach his daughter how to break a grown man's arm if she absolutely has to. She's just holding back.

Where the gently caress was Hana? She was great in Dead Souls so people obviously loved her and she had a voice cameo but it's not like they needed face capturing software for her actress. hell we have had sidequests from previously voiced charecters like Yuno and Dr Eri for the past couple games

Plus, wasn't 2012 around the time the sex scandal of Aya Hirano came to light? Well, I say scandal but it was really more that she dared to have casual sex with a few people and being an idol and all, that caused a huge shitstorm because Japan's idol culture is really weird. As Haruka's playable segments show.

The Japanese idol industry seems like horrible trash and Haruka should become a high powered lawyer or something instead in 6, IMO.

There was a famous scandal involving one of the members of AKB48, where one of the members was seen coming out of a house of a guy. She shaved her hair off and begged for forgiveness on YouTube under the official AKB48 The video has over 6 million views. A bit telling, don't you think?

Yeah, that one incident was especially lovely and bad, and had an appropriately horrified response from pretty much everyone, I'm just saying that having a horrible attitude towards women in media and their relationships (and elsewhere) is not a uniquely Japanese thing.

it's a weird consequence of Haruka being a lot more detailed than most other NPCs, so half the cutscenes are just this freakishly tall girl with incredibly huge and shiny eyes talking to an unblinking blob.

Samurai Sanders posted:It's not weird, it's very straightforward; they have to maintain the image that any one of their fans could become that special fan that they give sex exclusively to. Having sex with literally anybody ever spoils that illusion forever. That is the very definition of weird. There's a difference between being a fan of someone and being completely obsessive to the point that the mere thought of the person you idolize actually has their own life outside of the media drives you into outrage. Sakurazuka posted:Yeah I'm sure if a western female pop singer was caught having casual sex with a bunch of guys there'd be no scandal at all. The media industry is poo poo pretty much everywhere, but Japan is especially bad about it. Western celebrities are still allowed to get married and maintain contact with their family, Japanese idols aren't.

precision posted:Idol music isn't even particularly good! What's the appeal! 3d waifus. They are "perfect" as long as they can maintain the facade, unlike real women who are living organisms with thoughts and opinions and such. The whole industry is weird, and mostly just exists so yakuza have a steady supply of young girls to gently caress. On an unrelated topic, are Tatsuya's dishes supposed to be horrifying abominations against god and man? They sure seem that way, but it is all played completely straight so I'm not sure if it is intentional or not.

To switch topics, how the gently caress are you supposed to do True Suicidal Shooting? I think last game they only had pistols. Now it's get stunlocked for half your life if you get hit once. Also the one you attack will always block so the others can shoot you. It's ridiculous how Akiyama's training ended up a hundred times as difficult as everyone else's two games in a row.

A couple Warning Signs makes it a lot easier. It also helps if you push the story until Tatsuya shows up for Akiyama. I did all of his training before Akiyama's gourmet stuff and I really regret it.

You know, as much as I had a hard time with the manzai sketches, the section where Akiyama takes an idol through her day trying to carry out this dumb loving persona is the absolute nadir of this game so far. Christ.

I'm about halfway through Haruka's chapter and I didn't expect to like it, but I would totally play a sequel sidegame that was solely Yakuza Pop Idol Adventure. It says something about how good these designers are that they managed to make a better rhythm game with more variety than most rhythm games. I guess I shouldn't be surprised after the previous chapter was Better Than Cabela Hunting Simulator.

Wow, Manzai was a lot funner than I thought it would be. Though I can see why some people struggle with it. You kind of have to understand Japanese to know when he'll finish his sentence to get in to the right rhythm of when to reply. Not to the mention the translations of some of the replies are kind of lacking. Probably be much easier if they didn't randomize the buttons and had one button be tsukkomi and the other two be aizuchi.
