Recommended order for new players still 0 and then the numbered entries in order? Any general tips for the series?

Wow the free DLC items you can immediately get in Y0 sure remove any difficulty the early game has

Fishing in 0 is really weird. There's no sense of progression since you can buy the best fishing rod immediately(and it's not super expensive), getting better bait is RNG, and the minigame itself is super simple.

Man Majima's business minigame in 0 is way more interesting than Kiryu's(though it isnt a high bar to clear considering the Real estate stuff is basically just watching numbers go up) but it makes so much less money(and isnt automatic)

Everything involving the Pleasure King in 0 is pretty yikes

Please tell me all the bosses in Kiwami aren’t as bad as Shimano in Chapter 3. It was like fighting a brick wall. I played all of 0 on Hard but if this is what Kiwami is like I’ll bump it down to Normal

I did, he used that a total of 2 times during the fight. The other 90% of it was chipping away at his health while most of his attacks would instantly known me down,

I cannot for the life of me figure out Fantasy Zone, I just get myself owned each time I play it. I know it's best to go for engine upgrades first because they're permanent but my brain cannot adjust.

I was able to get the completion points in Out Run, Space Harrier and Super Hang-On, but Fantasy Zone forever escapes me.

Don’t feel bad because Fantasy Zone is by far the hardest of those 4. I was surprised to see cute mascot Opa-Opa’s debut game was so brutal

EDIT: Mesuking is soooo much better than catfights. It's still basically the same idea but the presentation, collection aspect, opponents who have specific strategies/tells so it's more of a puzzle, ect. all push it way higher

Pocket racer still boring though. At least the presentation and storyline are still good

i technically skipped Ishin while waiting for a deep sale but that barely counts because per IW that was just a dream Kiryu had once

also everyone skipped Dead Souls

Does it count as skipping if there's no practical way to play it?

Spinoffs don't count anyway, especially non-canon ones

They are not cept for the 2nd to last one and its more annoying than what big boy does, big boy is just there to show off the kiwami move

Boy you weren’t kidding, that penultimate boss was awful. Thankfully by this point I had a whole bunch of tools to use against him(and an inventory of recovery items)

The gambling cheat items are hilarious. I like to think everyone knows Kiryu is cheating but no one wants to call out the Dragon of Dojima for getting 5 blackjacks in a row

Climax battles(at least in Kiwami) is very poorly designed. There’s no restart options but more importantly in a mode where your available skills change per mission you can’t see your skill list so I hope you got that poo poo memorized

They never revisit the fact that they built an underground copy of Ala Moana just to make bootleg fashion.

Is it really more absurd than the fighting arena under the river in 0?

My issue with Disco was that all the Steps do is increase your score when hitting the next note, if you miss the note you get nothing. I think it should've been balanced so that while notes are worth most of the points the steps also give a little bit of points so if you miss the note they arent completely wasted.

To expand a bit - the exploit is to lose to Mr Shakedown, before beating him. Since each time you do he takes your money and multiplies it for the next encounter.

This only works with Kiryu though since he has a skill that increases rewards from Mr. Shakedown by 50%
