Does anyone have a hidden techniques and weapons guide for Kiwami 2? Even when I first played it I never unlocked all the skills because I have no idea where to look for a bunch of them. Playing it and 3 are making me appreciate Kiwami 2 and 0 more. At least in that one to get new skills it was just five training sessions with people they make a point of stopping things and making sure you note that they're important.

I'm replaying Kiwami 2 and actually taking my time on the Cabaret and trying to work up the enthusiasm to do more Clan Creator- I don't think I can do it. I've done like five or eight now and I'm only at 2 stars, this thing looks monstrously long. I might've been a moron back in 0 too, is there a way to give your cabaret girls a break besides playing a round with different ones or still no? Also, why the hell do you actually have stamina in long battles? I'm trying to attend a funeral here and I'm huffing and puffing like Link fresh out of his coffin in BotW.

J.A.B.C. posted:Imagine the Shangri-la fight as a continuous sequence, following Kiryu as he moves from room to room dropping fools left and right until it smash-cuts to Majima driving the truck through the front door. Right up until someone comes at him from behind with a bat and he busts out a hitherto unseen roundhouse kick. isk posted:Yep. I think a pretty good picture of Kiryu in a movie is Agent Smith from the first Matrix. Lots of blocks, counters, and straight power punches. I imagine Netflix Punisher but even more durable somehow. Well, a few more flips than that, if they use the Kiwami 1 and 0 Dragon Style as reference.

Crappy Jack posted:SUPER DUPER IMPORTANT: For completing different characters' combat training missions, you're gonna get three pieces of armor. When you wear them all together, it helps you resist bullets. Do NOT start the finale of the game without giving all three of those pieces to Tanimura, the cop. It will increase your enjoyment of the game 1000%. Wow, okay then. Um, is it like Kiwami 2's Sacred Wood Armor where you just block all of them?

You've gotta actually go to the store and download the game, which threw me off. Anyway, 0 and Kiwami have spoiled me, I keep hoping the next game I play will have a run button, because I can't see how you can get away from fights without one. I certainly couldn't avoid any in 3. And I feel like it was tough in Judgment too but I might be misremembering.

Yakuza 4: drat, I can't believe they came up with something even more nerve-wracking than doing tournaments yourself with the dojo training side activity. I keep constantly whiffing attacks as Taiga even with the combo speed boost.

And Tyler Too! posted:My trick to Shakedown was to get the skill that increases whatever he's carrying by 50%. Pick a fight with him, lose on purpose. Rematch, beat his rear end. Repeat. Yeah, if you do the first section of Kiryu's chapter 5 thing that unlocks the entire Brawler tree. So if you can get enough CP to unlock deep pockets on Mr. Shakedown you can easily start building a rad nest egg really fast. Use that to build his attack damage to the max and you can beat him down even with his max health and damage pretty consistently. Or that's what I did at least. Waiting on things to actually start paying decently on the real estate side of things took forever so I just used that as a side fund for health items while fighting Mr. Shakedowns repeatedly and losing every so often to bounce his cash total up to multiple billions of yen. Also I greatly prefer the Yakuza 0 method of unlocking skills because it's straightforward. I don't have to hunt around for substories to get new moves or buy a book from some guy 7 chapters in, poo poo's just there and you pay for it and move on with your day. Or someone stops you and makes it very clear that they're important and will teach you a new thing if you train with them 5 times.

Apraxin posted:Lol I'd forgotten that exclusive of the *TRUE VILLAIN* bullshit in Saejima's backstory, the hit he went down for was him specifically trying to whack Yoshiharu Ueno and failing, but killing eighteen Ueno Seiwa goons as collateral damage on the way to shooting Ueno point-blank and then leaving without checking if his mortal nemesis was still breathing or not. Only like 3 maybe 4 people even know what actually happened. Everyone else just knows Saejima went in and 17 people died, it doesn't really seem like that much of a stretch to assume that clearly he murdered nearly a dozen and a half people.

Madmarker posted:Hey, so I am way at the end of Yakuza 0 doing the premium adventure mode. I want to get the CP to unlock my legendary styles but due to using it on the business sidequests (mistakenly I guess) I'm like 11 short and all I have left is minigame CP, which I really can't stand grinding. Don't get me wrong, the fact that there is a Mahjong parlor is awesome, but the idea of playing it or the other gambling minigames to get cp sounds like the most boring grindy nonsense. SO........I guess what I'm asking is there any other way to get the necessary CP, like can I reset certain substories or something? Pocket Circuit is simple and gives tons of cp. Also, dont forget about all those medicine and eat food items ones.

I'm only in Ch. 5 of Yakuza 3, but please tell me I won't have to tail anyone. The tailing segments in Judgment were sooooooooooo boring. I only remember the superior 'catch that fleeing scumbag!' version of things so I wanna say no? Also, don't ignore Mack, do go to where he's hanging out and do all his training to upgrade your stamina and stuff.

I'm still mad about them getting rid of Tanimura's actor and therefore also anything related to the character as well as also taking Nair out with him. She was a really cool side character and also his combo into heat moves system was neat.

KungFu Grip posted:is the FotNS Yakuza game bad I got burned out at around maybe 70-80% through. Couldn't avoid a fight to save my life, they picked a point in Kenshiro's life where he wasn't extremely exciting and they ruined the Caberet minigame by making it into an actual management thing and you've got cards to deal with rowdy customers and also the game doesn't pause while you're making a decision on what to do. Protip: Turn off the Heat Action QTEs, they're not too fun in this game and it speeds battles up and makes them way more fun to do.

Xun posted:Any tips for fighting Mr.Shakedowns in Yakuza 0? First time playing with a controller ever and man it is rough All I ever did was use the Thug/Brawler style and just hit and run them till they died. Hover around close to them to hopefully bait out that big windmill attack and then do a good combo and back off. Otherwise just buy 8 Zap Guns and keep shooting the problem till it pays you to stop.

Xun posted:Do I need to be using "lock-on" at all? I think it's RB but as far as I can tell it does nothing so I'm not sure if I'm missing something. It depends on you man. Not using it just lets you run around wherever like when you're not in a fight and holding it down makes you focus on one enemy. I personally enjoy having a lock-on because it helps me not whiff attacks. I think there's some way to choose to stomp enemies without doing heat actions accidentally too but I dunno if I'm just making something up or not. Also I just remembered I made a dumb short fight against a Mr. Shakedown for the PS4 thread because someone was having trouble in there too and no one ever uses the Share feature on the thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TN2TOMnmUYk

redreader posted:Yakuza 0 hostess club challenge chat: so for the first challenge vs club mars (I think?) I made sure I had all of the hostesses I could get, bought 2 or 3 hostesses too, and then ground a little to level up, and the last 'match' I put all of my good hostesses off the roster so all of the gold and the one platinum hostess were all rested. Then I did the battle. I won by like 100k, which was a tiny margin. I didn't save beforehand so maybe it was close to a game over? The hostesses aren't essential, you can hold off on that. Also it's not a game over, they laugh and gloat and walk off celebrating their victory. You can challenge them again whenever.

Defenestrategy posted:Finished Y4, I feel they made a better decision keeping it to Kiryu or Kiryu + 1 as playable characters. Four feels like way too many, although it really beats home that as a fighter Kiryu really is on an entirely different level compared to the Yakuza universe. Yeah thinking of it from a creative standpoint it's a nightmare. Hey make a script in which the protagonist changes four times a fourth of the way through every time.

I mean that's my guess, but I don't know how any of this works. I'm just assuming that's why there's no PC version yet, because I'm assuming it's easier to hack a file to download on a computer than is on a PS4.

Not exactly ideal, but it’s a whole lot better than not being able to do it at all. This is the kind of out of the box thinking that I never come to. That would've been really helpful to know! I'm sure I asked before but anything I should be wary about with 5? I think not picking up locker keys with Haruka was one but I can't remember.
