I will miss stabbing people in the stomach, then slashing their throats with chili covered knives that light them on fire, after which they apologize and give me a plate made of iron and that twirly thing they always did with their arm

Ok realtalk: is there any other series in videogames that goes into all the heavy poo poo this one does? Like I got to the point where whoremonger helps a victim of buman trafficking and its just like, in this game alone we've dealt with sexual violence in the idol industry, sexual slavery and other poo poo The only one I can even vaguely remember was Watch Dogs, which had you murdering traffickers and Saints Row where you were one

The Catfights are as cringeworthy and bad as the rest of the game is good. It's amazing how it manages to be random, boring, difficult and otaku as gently caress, all in one.

I have played every single Yakuza game that came out in the West since Yakuza 3. Kiwamis first boss fight against chrome dome is the absolute shittiest fight I have had in any and all of them. The boss fights in loving Dead Souls were better. It was complete and utter loving garbage. All of the different styles doing chip damage, 4 environmental weapons that break in 3 hits each with him doing fuckloads of damage with his attacks. And when I try to actually do the ~kiwami bullshit, it doesn't work. Was I suppose to go the opposite colour from his? Or what? Do something other than press triangle? Because going into rush and pressing triangle did gently caress all, while it let him regenerate more of his bullshit health that took way too long to remove in a boring, lovely fight while he entered heat. Yakuza 3 literally had you had to button tap in these situations to avoid this stupid loving bullshit! Why the gently caress would you bring in a new, inferior mechanic when you figured out how to do this right almost ten loving years ago? I don't know if I was just spoilt by how good the fighting was in Zero, but this was absolute loving trash. There wasn't even any way to grind before the fight even, because everything was closed beforehand and it was at the end of a long, not entirely bad but still not great section.

I ended up doing the old "get into critical, wait for your heat to rise, repeatedly use the knife heat action" thing, which is pretty much the absolute most poo poo and boring way to win a fight in the game but gently caress, it's better than trying to do it legit using loving chip damage and the stabs got him outta the charge thing I don't even think I have any loving heat actions for rush how the gently caress did they mess this up so much???

hello i am mr game making man who has been part of making like, 7 loving yakuza games and this poinst and so am not a loving idiot; I am going to make the first real KIWAMI action, the titular action of the loving game i made, be something you automatically get after the majima fight for the dragon style just before this fight because I'm not loving retarded oh no wait whoops im not Sakurazuka posted:At least you have the worst part of the game over with now Holy poo poo, it is terrible. Like, the very first boss fight I had was against Hebi-Man at the café in 3 and I had my poo poo kicked in but at least after I learned to slam energy drinks and get a bit gud that was way easier (and use the objects around me) there is like, zero loving excuse for that fight to be that bad. Like, none

Poops Mcgoots posted:The excuse is they wanted to have a mechanic for dramatic finishes for boss fights that's more interactive than Feel the Heat. The problem is that they introduced it into a remake of the first game where it's basically totally linear for the opening of the game. That fight is pretty bad, but maybe you should also have a cookie and take a nap or something. 1) explained more clearly 2) if they'd have you gotten it like I pointed out, via Majima earlier Night Blade posted:I haven't loaded up the game in a week because of that fight.

Sakurazuka posted:Shimano is a bad boss fight but it's nowhere near as bad is Saejima vs prison guard dude when you have no items or skills, or the final boss fight against a bunch of SWAT dudes and the chief of police in 4. also its a bit embarrassing but the only yakuza game I've finished is 3. Somehow, there's always another new game or I get stuck trying to 100% poo poo and then lose patience (oh gooodddss, that loving hostess game, the sewer in dead souls or the loving sports things in 5) 0 had me stop at my inability to beat the dude at Outrun, which in a way was a drat shame because I was really liking it

Sakurazuka posted:Tried Dead Souls recently and never made it past the tutorial, I hope whoever came up with that control scheme never works on a videogame again. It really is amazing. You hear that the Japanese don't really have a lot of shooting games but good god. And not being able to remap poo poo was the cherry on top.

I swear, if there was an island based Yakuza spin-off with survival elements and taking care of orphans it would be the best. God I loved those lil idiots. And the hunting in, was it 6? Healing with moss, hunting animals, fishing, beachcombing ahh, that would be the life.

It's really sad that even when 6 made the food way, way more important, they didn't include those weird, detailed descriptions that they used to have for the booze but don't anymore. Man, I loving miss those. Why did they take them out? I loved them!

I'm tempted to gently caress up this speech just to prevent this man from ever having any influence in the government.

Finally getting around to playing the FotNS game after Christmas. So what's the lowdown? Should I aim to reach a certain chapter before really starting the Sidequest dash? Any specific thing I absolutely have to get? I already heard something about limited yellow orbs?

Yeah, combat is super uneven. I rolled through it and then faced her dad and it was like a brick wall, especially because the fucker kept stealing my heat. And dealing with crowds is a pain because you can't toggle priority so way too often it does the slow, dumb one which takes out two rather than the whole crowd. Also, the clinic game is worse than the mainstream Yakuza ones, but the baseball is way better.

I'm so torn on Lost Paradise. When it's good, it's drat good and some parts really are nice but there so many just, random things thrown in there that don't work, so I don't know what to feel about this game being the last one with the old engine. And noone thus far did that idiot twirly hand gesture and I keep waiting for it Finally hit the Mamiya Sidequest too and man, they really hate women fighting or doing anything don't they? What the heck
