How the hell are you supposed to beat the Komakis? I can honestly say that that was the toughest fight I've ever had in any Yakuza game, and I completed them all. It honestly seems kind of impossible. Sosuke was in his bullshit rage mode like 90% of the time and there was basically no way to avoid him since the fighting area is so small on top of having to evade the old man's attacks as well.

Oh right, I forgot that you can use weapons. I just bought a shotgun and blasted them both into submission. That totally shows how much Kiryu has grown as a person and as a fighter and that he has surpassed his limits

Dunban posted:I'm only halfway through his part, but is it ever explained where / how Shinada learned to fight? That also make his style really lackluster. I feel like Shinada should of been the first character you play as as going from the killing machines of Kiryuu, Saejima, and Akiyama to Shinada is really jarring. Also, can someone tell me how Shinada is the "master of weapons"? Other than more heat moves (which are only flashier and don't really increase your damage output) he doesn't seem that different from the other characters using weapons. He gets those unbreakable weapons but the damage is so low that it's better to just use your fists. I kind of wish Shinada's part had all the random encounters have enemies with actual weapons you can take from them which would make his part way more interesting. But as it is now, weapons aren't really practical because they're hard to come by randomly and are too expensive to actually buy and use, even with Shinada's durability boosts. It doesn't help that Shinada replaced Tanimura who had a really cool and unique fighting style that was really fun to play.

Huh, one of the hostesses in Kiwami is lesbian...though I am 95% sure that's just the intro to a plotline to straighten her out. poo poo.

But no, there was no gay conversion ever in the game at all. You do slip a character a potion, which is lovely and stupid and could have been what was altered, but it's not to turn her straight. (I don't think she's even actually gay to begin with.) The rumor was spread by some person's blog and game journalists just sort of cited it.

The Macaroni posted:Question about Saejima's hunting missions: After a couple of tutorials, there's a mission where you're supposed to go find an injured man and the village leader (Nakima?) on the mountain. No matter what I do, Saejima collapses in the blizzard next to the injured man. Is there a way to succeed at this, or is it a 100% fail that just leads to the other missions? Gokusen.

I'm pretty sure you don't even fight hostess Majima, I think you actually need to date him all the way through. Or at least I saw a picture like that, maybe it was a cutscene.

El Hefe posted:I've never played a fire emblem game in my life just going by what the article says What happens in FE: Fates is incredibly stupid and poorly written and I'm not sad to see it gone, but there is no gay conversion. The girl in question is heterosexual. The whole mess occurred after someone's blog completely misinterpreted the character into being lesbian as well as what happens during the supports with her and then gaming journalists just ran wild with it without doing fact checking. It wouldn't even make any sense for there to be gay conversion since Fire Emblem: Fates is the one game in the series that allows same-sex marriages and having both in the game would be really dumb.

Samurai Sanders posted:Honestly it sounds about as bad as the writing for Saejima's murder shenanigans in 4, just in a different way. It pretty much is, since she even acts like that around her own mother. It's really weird and I still don't like that the protagonist basically spiked her drink as part of that weird subplot, but there's no gay conversion. Although now I want to see a Fire Emblem game where the main villain is the the very first enemy unit in the game and he survives because you were given a rubber sword.

I'm starting to wonder if this lesbian hostess thing is going to end okay after all. Kiryu always has at least one conversation choice that is supportive of homosexuality, which is all the more amazing since he's been out of the world for ten years. Edit: and of course, he's from a world that only occasionally recognizes women as people in the first place. Samurai Sanders fucked around with this message at 13:38 on Jan 22, 2016 |

Is there any noticeable story differences from the first game in what you've played so far? The trailers seemed to put greater emphasis on Nishkiyama and I'm curious to know what got added.

Even Kashiwagi whispers under his breath "if Kiryu was here instead of you, this wouldn't have happened...". It's no longer any shred of a mystery how he got so twisted.

I'm watching a stream for Kiwami right now. It looks so different and familiar at the same time. I want it. I want it right now. I want all the games. I really hope they end up doing a remake of 2 after this. That would be so amazing.

I had forgotten that a lot of 1's main story is vignettes with the various supporting characters, when that would be sub-story stuff in the newer games. I'm doing Date's reunion with his daughter now, and same as before, I found myself wondering why the hell Kiryu is giving his daughter so much poo poo when she's absolutely right; he's an absent father who only ever shows up in absolute emergencies.

Do we know Yakuza 6's roster of playable characters yet? Obviously Kiryu is in, I assume Akiyama will still be around bankrolling everybody. I'd like to see another Haruka chapter, but really I feel Saejima could be skipped this time around. Give us Baba as playable with Saejima as his mentor figure, he's got cool moves. I'd love to see Shinada come back in some fashion too.
