I'll tell ya this. Right after your first visit to New Serena, Kamurocho seems to open waaaaaay up. I got to play Puyo Puyo, VF5, and am now going to RIZAP.

Next check, I'm gonna go get Best Buy's GCU thingy which will make this and other games way cheaper.

Can confirm, I got the full version on accident as well. You aren't supposed to be able to go into Club Sega or get Trophies in the demo, and I can do both.

Maybe, but I know supposedly Club Sega is supposed to be closed off as "This area not available for Trial version" and I can go in there and play VF5 and whatever.

Also I didn't know where the demo is supposed to end when playing and it turns out I'm past it. Oops

Yeah, I was like, oh, man, when does this demo end? Should I play more because I'm going to forget stuff after six weeks! Then I get online and read what's going on... and now what? I've got a physical copy coming because I want one to go with the others, so I don't think I should feel bad if I just go ahead and play now... right?

Where's the demo supposed to end? As far as I could tell, it's either just the prologue, (which is almost all cutscene and would be a poo poo demo) or chapter 1, which would be a ton of gameplay.

EDIT: I just went into a Club Sega and it told me I shouldn't be wasting time there because I was supposed to be helping a friend, so I guess I have the full game? That would be great since I have it preordered and was trying to figure out how I was going to play this and God of War at the same time.

If you downloaded the demo from the US store before they pulled it, you have the game. It is not an exploit, there is nothing to it - the game just lets you play to the next chapter.

And you're drat right I'm playing this game right now (and it still won't keep me from buying it on release, but I am not giving this one up, no sir)

So wait when did they pull it again? If it was around 4 PM PST yesterday then WOOHOO I GOTS ME A COPY.

As an aside, did Yakuza 5 end on a happy note or something? Fuckin’ I had to groan when Haruka’s revealing of Kiryu’s role went and hosed up the reputation of Sunflower Morning Glory Orphanage.

Wow there is basically nothing to the actual demo-demo. Prologue and then you get as far as heading to little Asia to find Akiyama and the last dot for him is behind a walled off part of the map.

10 minutes of gameplay at an absolute stretch after you get through all the cutscenes in the prologue. You're free to go eat food and punch dudes but the amount of levelling and unlocking you can do is also capped.

From what I could gather, it's supposed to end before you go to the rebuilt Little Asia. So yeah, basically zero gameplay.

Yes, Haruka finding him in the snow. It's recapped in 6. The difference between the models in 5 and those in 6 is clear from the cut from flashback to new stuff.

Oh, guess it didn’t. But I thought Kiryu being stabbed happened before he fought Aizawa, hence the wound opening up during said fight.

Still, huh. Assumed things went a bit bright before what with how antagonistic fate was to Haruka.

I dunno, sometime yesterday afternoon. And yeah, it sounds like the demo is SUPPOSED to be exactly like the JP demo of Y6 from last year, which means it was definitely supposed to stop before Little Asia as I suspected 'cause I downloaded that one last year.

tbh I was just really annoyed that Sega tried to claim there was "some exploit" to unlock the full game when really it just doesn't wall you off at all. :toot:

If I recall, it’s more “Triads chased Akiyama off to a point where he is forced to sell Sky Finance or at the very least get the gently caress outta dodge and go into hiding.

This ends with Kiryu and Akiyama facing off against EGGMAN Ed The Big Triad Who Killed Two Yakuza At A Meeting. It’s actually pretty sick.
