In my very humble opinion at least. Okinawa was great. I just want a game where Kiryu lives a happy live running the orphanage and does no Yakuza poo poo whatsoever. E: RE: Whisky talk. Yeah, I've been meaning to check out Ardbeg but I never had a bottle. Maybe I should find one I heard good things.

Nostradingus posted:The Yamazaki sounded so good in the game I went looking for it but a bottle is hundreds of dollars Yamazaki is really good but not worth the price you can get it for in the US. Suntory makes a cheaper blended whisky called Toki just for the export market which is an ideal companion to Yakuza gaming imo. You won't see it in the game bc it's export only but you can compare it to Kakubin (which is in the game and is basically the standard whisky in every convenience store in Japan, but is Japanese-market-only). Toki is better and more expensive than Kakubin but it's still cheap enough to have as a highball/on the rocks while you punch guys in the face and eat 10 meals worth of food in a row -- just did k2 ch12 and lol at kiryu's sad rain cutscene with him impotently clicking his lighter and lmao at having to fight a literal pair of tigers

Because at that point you're pretty much too big to fail anymore. I love that this game doesn't have any waiting, unlike the Real Estate in 0 but it can get real tedious. Anyway, congrats, you're almost done!

Speaking of drinking, in Y6 there's a bar where (minor substory content spoiler) there's an entire string of substories about becoming a regular and having drinking buddies! You go to the bar and chat up folks and increase your friendship meter with them, each one has a finale substory that's just navigating a bar conversation. I absolutely love it, but it's kind of a downer since it's a reminder that we still can't do that anymore Played last night and noticed that at that bar in the background is some whiskey labeled "Terrified" On the cusp of a major life event and staring down the barrel of an unknowable future? Reach for what speaks to you. Reach for Terrified Whiskey(tm)

if you ever get the chance to try a suntory it's 100% worth it btw, a different friend gave me a bottle of hibiki 12 for my wedding when you could still get it for less than 1000000000 dollars and man, let me tell you: it loving kicks rear end

I have advanced far enough in Yakuza 7 (my first Yakuza game) to have played the "stay awake through a movie" minigame and, okay, it's got its hooks in me now.

having a whale of a time with y6. what an incredible game. going to beat the main story faster than I thought but will definitely keep playing on premium adventure. Ive won pretty much every boss fight so far by picking up the biggest objects I can find lying around, holding left trigger and spamming heavy attacks until the enemy can't stand up anymore. slightly worried that after this I only have judgment and like a dragon left but that is still a lot of gaming.

Like a dragon chapter 12 spoilers Was not expecting to return to Sotenbori in this game, and definitely was not expecting to fight Majima. Well back to the battle arena to grind out a bunch of levels so Majima doesn’t slaughter me so fast.
