They made Yakuza, a series about a man who punches mental health into people, and then they made a Fist of the North Star game, a series where a man punches a dead person back to life.

It is so baffling to me that 0 introduced multiple ways to reduce street crime battles when you're tired of them (make half of them ones where you have to intervene + the money throwing option) and not only did the remakes ignore this but Kiwami 2 made them chase you for like four blocks

One thing I've noticed in playing 5 and trying to loving get anywhere in Fukuoka is a huge pain in the rear end between the normal random street fights, the car gang, and the tournament fighter guys. gently caress off I'm trying to run 50 metres to the convenience store! Also, as Saejima do you ever actually get to a point where you can just roam around like normal? I actually like the story it's telling but the way it's telling it is kinda poopy. I just got the hunting game thing in the snow explained to me and I do not care about it. screaden fucked around with this message at 01:17 on Sep 3, 2020 |

I think the Beads of Good Fortune are pretty early in Kiryu’s story, I’m surprised you had issues with random battles. But hunting is right before you get to Saejima’s town and you can do mostly normal Yakuza stuff, although it’s probably the worst town to traverse in a Yakuza game, just to warn you

Then add in saejimas city having the worst layout and it gets frustrating

Rofl, if you are annoyed by Fukuoka, just wait until you get to Sapporo. Saejima's city area is a loving infuriating nightmare.

Taiga Saejima’s Big Game Hunter was on the higher end of side stories/mini games for this series imo, but it would be even better if it wasn’t sandwiched in between Prison But Even Longer This Time and The Worst Town In The Series.

That and bringing back damage sponge enemies are the two things I don’t like about it. Though I do wish they had found a way to bring back the baseball management game. Make the Majima Construction plot use that instead of Clan Creator or something.

I didn’t mind the frequency of street fights in 6 or K2 because the lack of long rear end loading in the dragon engine made them nice and fluid, plus I could just get to where I was going and then quickly finish them off right there. The gangs thing in Judgement can still gently caress off though, that was annoying all the time once they outlived their story-purpose.

sotenbori kamurocho hiroshima okinawa nagoya fukuoka sapporo even if this list is very differently i think we can all agree that saejima is essentially an expert at drawing the shortest straw in just about every way down to his city even when the only real "good" parts of him is some of his moments in 4 and then hos fighting style. i enjoy all the cities except his city does him no justice e: oops, forgot the best part of saejima.

I love doing that because of the massive amount of regular people that start running down the street with you trying to form the audience, you can get a massive mob of running folks built up that way lol

Can anyone give me some basic advice on Yakuza 0? Should I be wandering all over whenever I get a chance to earn money to level up or should I get enough to level everything through natural progression? It's my first one, what's the general play philosophy of the flow of the game in this regard? I'm asking because the game seems like so far having finished chapter 1 it follow real old school design styles. No autosave, manual only at phone booths, no regenerating life at all, and I haven't found anyplace to buy health regen items. Healing seems to be eating 9 ramen dinners in a row slowly one at a time with no way to do it faster...

BitBasher posted:Can anyone give me some basic advice on Yakuza 0? you don't ever need to grind street fights really. eventually you will unlock a set of business minigames that will give you as much money as you could possibly want. buy healing items ("toughness," etc.) at convenience stores and carry them around with you. hell, buy a ton and keep them in your "item box" so you can just get more from phone booths whenever you need them

BitBasher posted:Can anyone give me some basic advice on Yakuza 0? Staminan and Toughness drinks are usually your best bet for on-the-go healing, and stronger ones are sold in pharmacies on the map. I think the one in Kamurocho is fairly central to the city, right by the spot you can go to to spend Completion Points. Some restaurants have bigger menus, and you can add multiple items on to your order until your health bar fills up, or unlock the bottomless stomach skill to just cram the entire menu down your manly gullet every time you stop by. Items that mention being spicy sometimes add to your heat gauge too.

Also, very importantly, you will unlock a kiryu side job that is extra dull and tedious (I folded laundry during it) but will rake in billions. Near the end of the game you can send said money to another character. Also if you REALLY want to grind there's a specific weapon, enemy, and ability you stack to intentionally lose then win fights that gets you a trillion if you want it

if you look at the map and look a little down from the center where the big alleyway is mapped in thinner lines, there should be a building shaped like an E with a shopping cart icon on it. that's the temple, and the building marked in yellow on the same small cluster of buildings is the shop where you can get healing items. should also be marked in yellow. you can level by natural progression but you're gonna want to do story and substories. those haven't opened up yet but they loving own and give good xp and items.

Thanks everyone. I stopped just after the cut scene with Real Estate guy in his office at the start of chapter 2. I'll look for the stores when I get home from work, I was missing that entirely EDIT: Is the "You don't ever kill anyone" a joke? I just finished chapter 1 after literally drop kicking someone out of a 4th story window, at least!

0's a great game, but it has its downsides. money taking the place of exp and real estate/cabaret being the only realistic way to make money outside of mr. shakedown cheese means that there's no real meaning to random battles or minigames once you've gotten all the cp.

One thing you should know about 0 is that new gameplay elements keep opening up until much later in the game than you'd probably expect.
