Last thread was fun, let's have another.
Who's your favourite character to play with so far in 5? Which of the three upcoming Yakuza games are you looking forward to the most?What's your favourite HEAT move
>>320991835
>that Saejima with a motorcycle in his hands
I love the amount of motorcycles in tsukimino, Saejima is the most satisfying character to play in the game imo.
Also, Saejima's heat action where he grabs a bouncing enemy by the legs and breaks his back with his arm is just brutal, I love it and it almost makes me giggle. Too bad using heat actions with Saejima is counterproductive.
>>320992617
>Saejima is the most satisfying character to play in the game imo.
I think so too. Though I wishwhat he did to Kugihara's armwas an actual heat move. If it was, I'd never stop using it.
Best song in the series.

Still going through the game
Daigo's not going to have a convincing reason for doing what he's doing inShinada's chaptergiven the circumstances, is he?
>>320993439
I don't think you should take the story in these games serious.
>been in jail for a long time
>still recognizes Miku
okay saejima
>>320993336
>Not shaving your beard to this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfmqqAsp-Sk
>>320993670
I generally enjoy the stories in these games, wackiness and all
just wondering how the story is going to justify what Daigo's been doing in this game
Goddamnit, how the hell do I do Saejima's Snowman heat? I have a carrot, but I can't use it as a weapon. I just wanna see him spread some Christmas cheer.
>>320993867
I enjoy all the stories as well,l though I think so far they peaked with 2.
>>320993689
Who's Miku?
>>320995381
a secret hostess that unlocks after you spend 10 million on each one and then kill 16 golden stags and complete every side mission while at flashing red health.
>>320991835
what's all the hype for these games about? I see them on a couple of lists but when I checked out a few reviews and clips, all I saw was
>linear-as-FUCK gameplay
>fun fights
>nothing else to do
why should I buy one of these games if sleeping dogs looks the same but with a city I can drive around in?
How do I mahjong? Need to learn that for that mission in Y2.
>>320993689
Majima probably taught Saejima all about the vocaloid lore and shit before he decided to go back to prison FOR NO REASON
>>320995632
>linear as fuck gameplay
>nothing else to do
that's the opposite of these games, what reviews are you reading? just look up "your next favorite yakuza" on youtube and watch the first 15 minutes.
>>320995632
It doesn't play like GTA, it's not a sandbox open world game
if you want a game that does though then Sleeping Dogs is a good option
>>320995632
Please go shitpost elsewhere.
>>320995632
The best thing about the Yakuza games is that they're basically Japan simulators, if you have the patience for it. You'd get a better idea about grorious Nippon from these titles than you would your average anime.
>>320995632
>checked out a few clips and now I'm gonna judge the games u guise
I know school is out but jesus christ m8..
>>320995761
>How do I mahjong?
Sign up for a mahjong class.
DON DON DON DON QUIIIIII
DON QUIOTEEEEEEEEEE
>>320993689
He does?
I remember during the snow statues sidemission he only says there some weird magical girl statue with the big head or something
>>320996806
after that one of the choices is hatsune miku
>>320995774
he's going back to prison because MUH ATONEMENTbut yeah it's seriously stupid and if we have to play Saejima and he's in jail AGAIN I'm gonna cry
>Kiryu cries his eyes out over Rikya's death
>Never mentions him again
Some aniki he turned out to be.
>>320996886
yeah but he doesn't actually say hatsune miku
he gives a vague description and the guy goes "oh you mean hatsune miku" and saejima says yeah that whatever in response
>>320997163
The old man, his mute daughterfu and the fat fuck are still alive and help Kiryu look after the orphanage kids
and they're never mentioned again after 3 either
>>320997542
good 3 was shit
>>320997542
they're just trying to sweep 3 under the carpet
>>320997542
Karou, Kiryu's lover was never mention again either.
>>320998003
>30 seconds appearance at the beginning of Yakuza 3
>fucks off to America so Kiryu still has an excuse to go to hostess clubs
>never seen from ever again
will we ever see Kiryu's qt korean detective waifu ever again?
Does Rikiya appear in Ishin atleast? I know that Mine, Hamazaki, and Wesker are in it
Rikiya was the best thing to come out of 3
>>320998225
nope
Shinada and Tanimura aren't in Ishin either
>>320998374
Wow. 3 really was forgotten, I mean aside from the orphanage.
>>320998003
>Kiryu's lover
More delusional than the daughter fucker faggots.
>>320998003
>Kiryu's lover
lol
>>320998483
>>320998593
Nah, fuck you. The kiss meant something.
>>320998374
huh, that's a shame
kinda weird that Shinada didn't make it in since it's the same engine and all
>>320998141
I don't think any of the protagonists will ever have a proper long-lasting romance, because of the hostess stuff
>>320998653
lol
no
>>320998663
honestly i'd just like to see Kiryu settle down and become a supporting character
he's really overstayed his welcome and his entire role in the series past 2 so far has been coming in to clean up the mess that Daigo and the Tojo Clan creates every game
>>320998894
That would be stupid. It would be like taking Ryu out of SF titles.
>>320998894
I thought the same thing until 5
he had my favorite chapter in 5 though - even if at it's core it was the usual "life hates me and I need to save Daigo again" thing we've had for a while, it was a pretty enjoyable spin on it imo. For now I'm fine with him sticking around as protag, they just need to go with a different plotline. I know they can fucking do it, because it's what they do in the spin-offs and shit.
>>320999114
yeah i know it would never happen but it's just a bit bland when Kiryu really doesn't have much of a personal stake in the story
>fuuuck the omi and the tojo clan are fighting again better go crack some heads
>>320999114
this
They really fucked up with 4 and 5 IMO.
A game like 3 without the pacing issues would've been fucking great.
Have just Kiryu and Majima for variety and we're golden.
>>320999261
The only problem with 4 and 5 is forcing characters on you.
You should be able to choose who's playable.
In 6 please no more idol shit.
>>320996521
Come on man why you gotta do this to me?
>>320999570
watch that anime that's plastered in the mahjong hall
seriously
>>320999261
I mean, I like Saejima and Akiyama and all, but it honestly becomes a bit of a drag having to build characters up from scratch every 4 chapters.
>>320999908
Akagi or the other one with the little girls?
Honestly I watched Akagi and I still don't really get how mahjong works outside of matching up tiles and shit
>>320999973
they just shouldn't be forced on us
have more events like the end of 4 where you can choose between 2 characters in an action segment
have more action segments in general - they're the best parts of the game
>>321000459
>end of 4
sorry I meant 5
>>321000348
Well you can change the options to not have a minimal of 2 fan to win the round, or play with easy mode people.
What would Yumi think of her daughter being a slut now?
>>321002385
She would commit sudoku in the afterlife.
>>321002385
Considering Yumi was a slut herself I'd say she would be pretty proud.
>>321002385
I hope I can re-watch princess league shit with the climax heat outfits for fapping purpose.Then I realize the climax heat outfits were for a dude
Are there any good Yakuza movies like the games?
>>321002935
You can rewatch the princess league videos from the reminisce menu, I think it's one of the japanese DLC that is included in the game.
>>321004251
I wonder how shitty pic related is.
>lost my Yakuza 1 and 2 save somehow
Oh for fucks sake. Do I get something if I import my Y1 save in 2? I forgot
>>321004734
I don't think there's any save carry over data.
>>321004709
Apparently it's not bad at all and does the game and fans a lot of good.
>>321005036
Thank god.
>>321004734
You get that stuff Haruka gave you when you upgraded your relationship
>>321005205
>does the fans a lot of good
>Majima is wearing a shirt
I don't see how.
>>321005710
Also eyepatch is on the wrong side
>emulating Y2
>camera angle changes
>game freezes or slows down for a few seconds
Is this normal?
>>321005826
I really hope the image is reversed.

>>321006468
Well, at least it had Nagoshi. It's him, isn't it?
What does that cochin coach want when it says he wants sundries?
>>321006468
How can they fuck up such a prominent detail like that?
Why is Haruka so based?
>>321010016
Built for breeding.
>>321004709
Its really great actually.
So is the 2 part movie that came out with the game.
You can watch all this shit on Youtube.
>>321005710
>>321005826
Autistic nitpicking aside, all RGG related films have been top notch.
>>321006468
Does he beat the shit out of his underling with a baseball bat?

>>321011716
He beats a shitton of people
>>321011716
why don't you fucking watch it and find out
literally 2 seconds in youtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcUo7Q7pZVE
Akiyama. I'm mother fucking Ken Lo from Drunken Master II.
Also I didn't expect to like Shinada this much as a character.
>>320995761
Just pay the man. You don't need to play those games as far I recall
>>320997542
>that fat dude takes a huge ass hammer in the head or neck
>he didnt died
What the fuck man. That was bullshit
>>321013090
Well, considering the heat moves the characters use on mooks that should by all rights kill them, but they still live, this isn't too out of the ordinary.
>seeing Kiryu beat the living hell out ofAoyama
>Saejima stomp that faggot's arm into mush
It feels nice to have them do this kind of shit outside of gameplay for once.
I don't understand why you all talk so much shit about me.
It may not look like it, but I'm trying my best here.
>>321014545
Why didn't Kaz stay on as Fourth Chairman? Surely he'd run the Tojo better than Daigo.
Oh shit there's a guy with a baseball bat
Where do I sign up
The whole throwing a guy towards a wall is the most useless and annoying additions.
Never want to use it, always fucks up my attempts at proper throws.
Jeffrey appreciation thread - autowin character
just spam L2 to throw everyone off the ring
>>321014545
Now I'm going to disappear without telling anyone, it's not like anything bad could come out of it.
>>321016253
He wanted out. He's been wanting out since the first fucking game.
>>321017381
>try the most classic of all special heat moves, throwing someone through the hostess club information kiosk window (in fukuoka this time)
>it just slams the guy against the window
>try it again
>and again
>same thing
>>321017381
>it even happens in fucking IF8
HOW AND WHY FUCKING WHY
>>321017583
Aww man, really? That sucks.
>>321017583
>trying to slam guy into ramen display case like in Y2
>keep trying
>same throw again the well every single times
feels bad man
>>321017658
might work in kamurocho, dunno yet
>>321017381
Do you know you can press triangle on them right after?
>>321017869
PROTIP:nope
>>321017898
yeah and?
It's fucking useless, does zero damage, and leave you wide open to attacks from behind.
>>321016253
because Haruka.
>Good Fortune
>Easy mode Mahjong
Finally earning some money as Akiyama
>leveling my weapon skill by hammering all the hoodlums with nearby bikes in Fukuoka

I wonder whether that is really the joke

Damn good show you posted tbqh.
What food do I need to eat for that Shimada training? And what food does that hungry guy need for the substory?
How wet was she after this?
>at part 2 of chapter 1
>already clocked in what 15-20 hours
>cleared nigh all the side stuff
it was a trip finding out the Bee place is a bar but doesn't serve alcohol, only acting as a Darts den
Can someone post the pastebin?
>>321020912
http://pastebin.com/xMUt9y26
>>321020845
The darts in this game is so fucking addicting.
>>321021056
Thanks anon
>the CONSTANT forced switches between Akiyama and Haruka
FUCKING STOP I DON'T NEED TO SWITCH TO HARUKA FOR HER TO WALK 10 FEET TO A BAR I COULD JUST MEET HER AT FUCKING HELL
>>321021712
>Akiyama introduces Haruka to the creepy old forger who's been jerking off over her
good move.......?
Playing as Haruka, where the hell is this hairdresser that Yoko wants me to go to? I feel like an idiot for not finding it. Yoko claims it's on the same street as my agency but I am not seeing shit. Send help.
>mfw hearing Jeh Jeh Rocket from Sonic Rush play in that massage parlor
>>321021845
yeah it's on the same side of the street as dyna chair just further down the road just huge that side of the street until you get a prompt
>>321021845
Same street, same side just a little bit north of Dyna Chair. In the middle of Ashitaba Park and Hoganji intersection.
>>321021971
>just huge that side of the street until you get a prompt
just hug even
I asked this very question yesterday, and I ended up finding it buy just randomly pressing ex all up and down the street.
>>321021971
>>321022316
My heroes, thank you. Can't believe I couldn't find it for like 10 minutes
Shinada is cute. CUTE.
>Akiyama will never be your bro
Where the hell are these anthocyanins?
Is 5's combat slightly slower than 4's?
That's what it seems like, but then again I just finished 4 and jumped straight into 5.
>>321023357
Go to Cafe Alps and eat strawberry cake.
>>321023439
I haven't noticed, myself. I'll check that out when I get back to 4.
>>321023439
It's funny because the 'seamless' battles actually make the load times longer.
>>321023439
Kiryu is a lot slower. I think maybe to emphasize his age.
Framerate also dips a lot more than 4 because of the new engine.
Does Akiyama fuck Haruka?
The can both keep it from Kiryu, and their VAs fuck IRL anyway. Also wouldn't be the first time Kiryu is cucked.
>>321024123
>completely insane shipperfags have been popping up more and more since Y5's English release
And this is why female characters, especially protagonists, are absolute cancer.
>>321024123
You'd have to be out of your fucking mind to fuck kugumine rie now that she got hit with the ugly stick.
>>321024123
>VAs fuck IRL anyway
Nah, son.
>>321024546
>>321025751
>>321025806
They're fucking married.
>>321024123
>>321025806
Haruka's VA is Kugimiya Rie. Akiyama's wife is Tanaka Rie. They're not the same person.
>>321025865
Rie Kugimiya isn't married to anyone.
>>321026034
>>321026060
Guess I was wrong. My bad.
They should still bang though.
Guts?
>>321026924
It's Ryu from the Street Fighter anime.
>>320991835
>Which of the three upcoming Yakuza games are you looking forward to the most?
theirs two more? i thought zero was the only one coming out
Anyone know if there's any use for the pocket tissues? Thought maybe Kamiya works, but they don't unlock anything there, any other possible use?
>>321029717
I suspect they're just for fun. since it was unavoidable to obtain so many in the first game
>>321005036
I actually emulated and beat Yakuza 1 a few days ago, and when i started Yakuza 2 it said it found my Y1 save data so i got some premium item box or some shit.
