That description did not lie, that was some whirlwind ruse-cruising. Shame about Ryuji, he may have been a colossal rear end in a top hat, but a straight shooting, honest rear end in a top hat at that, unlike the scheming backstabbers in what remained of the Omi.

That sure was an ending...not sure why Kiryu and Kaoru suddenly thought Haruka would be ok watching them decide to die making out but I guess everything turned out alright in the end?

And on a better note, now it's Majima time!

Edit: I think the saddest thing though is that Ryuji and Kaoru never got time to be siblings; he seemed genuinely happy to have a little sister.

Oh, Majima :allears:. New guy really doesn't have a read on the situation if he thinks he can frame Majima for sneakily killing that guy when everything about Majima screams that if he'd wanted someone dead, he'd kill them right there, right then, in front of everyone without a care in the world.

Yeah seriously he could have at least killed Uematsu by stabbing or with a baseball bat or something so it was at least on brand.

Man it must suck to be Kashiwagi when your main ally against the newbies is Goro 'I do what I want' Majima. He probably just wanted to hand the family over and retire but then Nishiki backstabbed the family and died and Kiryu hosed off to whereever.

Well, this helps put some perspective on why Majima has basically just hosed off from the Tojo Clan in the main game. Though I'll be a little disappointed if this doesn't end with him flipping that whole clan meeting room the double birds while yelling, "gently caress y'all, I'm out!"

Officially started this. The Dragon engine is just as great in Yakuza 6's iteration. Although the flying dropkick isn't as OP in Kiwami 2

Are there no substories in Majima's chapters? Really seems like they could have done a bit more with him.

Sadly no, there's a bunch of those street boss fights and you can buy stuff for Kiryu to sell, but that's about it. It's sad because they clearly put a lot of love into Mad Dog style but at the same time they already added a ton of other content as well, so Im glad we got Majima's style at all.

Next episode is a bit delayed because I drunkenly overshare for like a really long uncomfortable time because I was too drunk to formulate my thought coherently and I want to remove that and haven't had time to edit recently :froggonk: It's also the last episode until we can record again because we wasted a few sessions on a failed Amanda the Adventurer LP (fun game! Was a good LP and then the last episode didnt record. :cripes:) A failed Inscryption LP (I sorta... Played too well meaning it took three episodes to get out of the tutorial and see any actual plot, so the LP was turning out boring as gently caress), and a not-failed recording session of Etrian Odyssey because I really like that game and dog I straight up cannot control my hyperfixations and I have no impulse control. If I ever have less than three active projects I will die.

Hey speaking of which if any of you dorks want to be a character in the collection farming crew for the Etrian Odyssey LP we already recorded a session of, we need a Survivalist, a Dark Hunter, a Protector, an Alchemist, and a Medic, so let me know if you got a preferred portrait and also understand that your character will be subjected to the kind of bits we come up with. Names have a nine letter character limit. (Yes this too is an example of my complete lack of impulse control)

Making the casting call in here? Neat. I guess with the character limit it'd have to be Disposabl or something similar, but I would be happy as the sacrificial lamb Protector. I am ostensibly a dude but I do not give an actual drat about portraiture. (If you want a regular person name, I just recently finished a D&D campaign where I was a bodyguard-y fighter named Elwin.)

Yeah we were going to wait until the thread went up to recruit the gathering team but then I looked up what people are saying about the game and got intimidated so now I feel like I have to do some prep work for the next recording :ohdear:

Been playing through Kiwami 2 on my own time. Just wanted to point out that the Clan Creator they had between the two Dragon Engine Games (This and 6) apparently share characters. Even though Yakuza 6 was the one hyped up about a bunch of wrestlers being modeled and in it, in this those same wrestlers appear first in the Colliseum and then you can recruit them into Majima Construction.

Didn't know if this was already mentioned, but drunkenly think it's somethin interesting.

She looks like randomly generated or something -- by far the most inhuman face model in the game.

I like to think that there is a perfectly normal way to lower the desk but Majima doesn't know about it; he only discovered the monitor room when one day he hit his head on the desk (or smashed someone else's head on it) and it started going down, and since it works, he just does that. That's why he's always wearing the hard hat. Who knows how many secret rooms can be found by knocking your head against things?
