Kinda wish they just would have let you dump money into the real estate properties (like when you send guys on surveying outings at the mod shop) and just make it so you get a better effect from advisor rankings. Having a miniscule amount of the bar go up sucks.

Yet somehow this takes less time and effort than Hostess Clubs so thumbs up. The input prompt speed is a dead giveaway.

There are seven substories connected to the Telephone Club. More detail: Three girls that Kiryu goes on a "good" date with, three girls that Kiryu has a "bad date" with, and three girls that stand Kiryu up - the good dates and the bad dates each have their own substory, and there's one substory for all three of the girls that stand Kiryu up; once you get a girl that stands Kiryu up, you don't have to worry about getting the other stand-up girls in the other two colours.

A friend asked: "Hey, does Yakuza 0 have any call forwards to 5? What happened in that game anyway?" It then occured to me that I was honestly unable to answer that without writing a half hour dissertation. 0's plot feels so much more straightforward by comparison, it's kinda refreshing.

Yeah Yakuza 0 has the best storytelling in the whole series I think, both in terms of plot and characterization. They did a surprisingly good job of writing Kazuma as someone who's not quite comfortable in his skin yet (and is also mad horny). I found Yakuza 4 and 5 both pretty difficult to follow because the story was essentially four/five disparate elements only drawn together in the last hours. Yakuza 1 - 3 were tricky because of the family politics and business/property stuff, but never really overwhelming. Cat Machine fucked around with this message at 12:05 on Feb 7, 2017 |

They really need to nerf the AI in the last levels of the dancing substories. I've hit a brick road in both of them and I'm pretty drat good at this point. I smashed the first and second of Majima's opponents by around double but the third girl has Korean Starcraft player levels of APM and crushes me every single time. I had the same drat trouble with Kiryu's.

just finished the story, what a masterpiece, I loved all the final battles and the ending ride. now time to finally build my cabaret and slotcar empires. I read yesterday that the Kiwami game has a Majima Nemesis system where he can loving pop out of anywhere and fight you which sounds batshit so this might be the first year I add two games of the same series in my Best Of list at year's end.

So are there any tips for combat in general? I am getting to what I think is the end of chapter 1, and my current tactic of "mash lots of buttons because I forget what they do" is not particularly effective against Kuze. Maybe I should just switch to easy and enjoy the ride....

Go for hit-and-run attacks and don't be afraid to get in his face, because Kazuma's basic jabs in Rush mode come out faster than most of Kuze's attacks. Once you get him on the ground, use a Heat attack and back off because he's going to come up swinging.

Maybe I should just switch to easy and enjoy the ride.... For boss fights, it's probably worth loading up on a lot of stamina drinks for heat and health refill For the first Kuze fight I would probably go with Thug style. Rush is really tempting because it's one enemy, but it kinda sucks DPS wise against a large health bar. Also you probably haven't unlocked any heat moves for Rush yet other than the kick an enemy when he goes down , so it really kinda sucks compared to how it works later. Thug is a bit slower and not as east to dodge with, but if you can get a decent combo you can actually use a heat move for extra damage. Sadly the actual best style for dealing with Kuze isn't unlocked until you progress further. OJ MIST 2 THE DICK fucked around with this message at 15:50 on Feb 7, 2017 |

Man, the final chapter's kinda dragging me down. The fight against Kuze was so loving dull. "Kiryu this time I'll fight you for real! Not like the other 3 times!" and then he just does the same boring knockdown combo over and over again. Should've just used Brute and trivialized the battle but I was hoping he'd do something.

Is Kuze the most persistent enemy in a game outside Majima? Although unlike the latter he's not intentionally being a joke.

I tried being clever with Rush style and got my rear end handed to me for my trouble. So I bet it all on Brawler's hyper armor (tank a hit while still swinging with your own hit) and won through in the war of attrition, sprinkling in Heats when I could get away with it.

I had the same drat trouble with Kiryu's. I actually found it much easier to take on those final dance battles on Hard, counter-intuitively. The advantage the AI has is in taking more steps between prompts, so if you're on hard there are more prompts closer together, which gives the AI less time to step around in between.

I don't know -- I got several special environmental animations during that fight; Kuze punching the wall so hard it cracked, another QTE or two that I hadn't seen before. And what happened after that fight I was a bit upset about.

I never realized just how good Kiryu's fighting style in all the other yakuza games were until I unlocked the Legend style in 0. Tools for any situation, bounding throws are fun as hell, and the default fight music is great. I'm having a hard time switching to other styles now except for maybe Beast if there's a lot of stuff around.

Kiryu's in particular is an MGS4-esque deathmatch against your dark mirror, styles and all.

Oh christ he's actually going to charge a billion dollars per building isn't he. Only one of the media Kings properties is over 1 billion (it's like 1.2 bil), though a few are like 998 million. Grab it first because it's by far the highest earning in the game. It's a disco, and it's across from the Korean BBQ place I want to say.

I'm pretty sure that almost half of the media king's properties are over a billion, and the most expensive one is about 1.6 billion. Edit: I might be wrong. 1.6 billion may have been how much I was collecting each "day".
