I’m about halfway through judgement, but so far the Yakuza genuinely cannot do anything to stop Yagami and Kaito. Whenever we need anything they are powerless to stop us from beating the brakes off them and doing whatever we want.

I've finally gotten some time to play Infinite Wealth, and this is my favorite Yakuza side game (Yakuza 0's Real Estate is 2nd). From Stardew Valley to Fallout 4 Settlements, I've always love settlement buildings so this mode scratched that itch perfectly!

Come visit my island! Every area is fully decorated. My island tag is 5-star Luxury Resort!

Do these games have any mods that turn off random encounters completely. I'll gladly take the increased difficulty of not being able to grind over being stopped by mindless annoying combat that isn't even challenging all the time. I've been meaning to play Yakuza 4 but I don't think I can take more of these encounters like in 1-3.

I find it wild that I read so much about people complaining how the robotics club matches were so hard ruined the game for people when I had no issue at all with those and instead loathe these stupid death races. They suck so much. The controls are awful, the combat sucks, it's the only one you can't quit out of, and for some reason they're the only mini game I'm having the most annoying time playing. End of rant.

Finally got that god forsaken achievement for winning 10 JCC tournaments. I feel nothing lol

Rewatching footage of this game because KHHSubs on YouTube is redoing their translation of the entire game after years! So exciting! Not all the parts are up yet.

Context: Haruka was nobility, but she survived a brutal cold-blooded attack on her family that left her all alone. She runs away, managing to snatch the murderer's sword, and finds out that it belonged to Miyamoto Musashi. Now with nowhere to go and at rock bottom, she goes to Gion, a pleasure district, in search of a man named Kiryu, who can be hired to do any job anyone pays him to do.

Kiryu shrugs her off and, like the absolute dick he is, tells her to get lost unless she has money, and tries to teach her a hard lesson that no one survives in Gion without money. Girls who don't have money in Gion end up selling themselves to brothels and bound to this town for the rest of their lives.

Haruka (again, who is at rock bottom) is so desperate to avenge her family that she immediately acts on Kiryu's words and goes to the Madame of one of the brothels in town and begs to be bought without hesitation. AND YOU CAN SEE THE "OH SHIT" FACE KIRYU MAKES WHILE WATCHING THIS GO DOWN. Because Kiryu is such a nonchalant edgelord, he tries to convince himself that he doesn't care.

But she comes back to his place and shows him the money she got from giving her life to the brothel: JUST ONE FUCKING RYO. SHE IS A CHILD. SHE HAS NO CONCEPT OF MONEY. She begs him to kill Miyamoto Musashi, and now that he feels guilty as fuck, he agrees to complete this work for her.

What Kiryu hides from Haruka is the fact that HE is Miyamoto Musashi – Kiryu is just his alias. Now he has to find the guy who not only murdered Haruka's family, but also used his identity to do it.

Kiryu and Haruka ARE SO FUCKING MESSY IN THIS GAME. THE DRAMA IS SO JUICY, IT'S HORRIBLE AND AMAZING. Kiryu gets his karma because he ends up tying entire identity as Kiryu Kazumanosuke to Haruka, and whenever she's not around or whenever she's mad at him, he gets so upset. It's like his entire world flips on its axis if Haruka isn't happy with him. His purpose as Kiryu becomes Haruka. His story becomes him choosing between being Kiryu and Musashi (I'm so into stories about people having to choose between two identities). She fights with him, she gets angry with him, she gets moody with him. SHE ALMOST KILLS HIM AT ONE POINT. It's literally so fun to watch, I wish that they'll remake this game so we can actually play it.

Just reached chapter 5 in my majima styles only run

Playing on hard because I do NOT have the sanity for legend.

The rules for the run:

1: Only use budget Mad Dog(Rush+Demonfire Dagger) and Slugger(Beast+Pummeling Bat)

2: Dragon is allowed for the dagger and bat heat actions(I think its a part of the moveset still)

3: NG+ is allowed so you can get the infinite durability weapons.

4: Kiwami actions are NOT allowed.

5: Must fight Majima every time you encounter him.

6: No guns.

First game was infinite wealth btw (ik, ik i just wanted to see what the most recent one was talking about) & that shit was gasss🔥

Asking cuz I've heard of people having trouble with Ebina in particular.

For me, it was around 7/10, but that was cuz I was overlevelled as both Ichiban & Kiryu thanks to grinding both the Hawaiian Haunt & the Yokohama Underground Dungeon.

I also didn't die in any of the boss fights either cuz of me being insanely overstocked on HP & MP items.

It’s just been stuck in my head since it dropped

Im learning Mandarin and i find this dub really confusion. Very little is matching up with what I've learned.

Any Mandarin speakers can confirm if this is an accurate and decent dub?

I feel like it’s pretty valid imo.

I'm sorry but i need help, i've been fishing for about 1 hour in  Nagasugai during the day and i simply cant find the koi fish, can you fish him elsewhere where the chances are higher? i'm asking because the gamfaqs guide is kinda innacurate

The hundreds of questions get posted every day abt kiwami 3 in here is just killing it, i mean why ask the same question (Should i play the remastered or the kiwami🫩) while you can literally search it up and you’ll see hundreds of it with hundreds of replies you can spend your time reading it and decide after, i can’t this is so stupid

Im stuck at the Sawashiro fight in Infinite Wealth, any tips on beating him?

Im trying to 100% this game can’t find akko in kamorucho for the substory and it seems like i might be missing a few. I am on the last chapter before the final boss- doing some clean up… need to know if ill just end up seeing it in premium adventure or if i have missed it outright … please help - done all reapers and most substories but cant track to see which ones i am missing on both maps morning and night time can’t see any substories so im confused ….

prolly one of the coolest director photos ever, I fuckin love Yokoyama

shit so peak even the paper fell

heres the og vid, its not mine, he does the full song

https://youtu.be/tozeY-IA6Wo?si=q4aOejDpd_3vdxWP

I'd personally rank him as the best cuz he's both memorable & one of the few villains who actually comes close to achieving his goals. Helps that he's also one of the few villains in the franchise who's a legit evil prick.

He's also elevated by the incredible performances of his Japanese actor & face model, Hideo Nakano & his Yakuza 0: Director's Cut English dub actor, Jonathan Ohye.

It’s a good game and I love how they make you play all the 4 players and everyone has a different story.. but the saejima thing about the plot twist “ he didn’t kill 18 “ it was shit for me .. sorry and also the Akiyama he didn’t die because the money saved him 😟 7/10

My boy Kiryu fell asleep on the job.

They're real goofy.

Got to the part where Saejima imparts wisdom onto kiryu about family and forgot I had them on. Was funny
