Majima is so fucking cool as a character in 0. His bat style is also so fucking broken.
This is my first time playing yakuza game aside of PS2 ones. So much content, i barely keep up with it.
I have a question:
Are you supposed to main a certain style, or invest in all three and switch according to your needs?

Are you really asking why Western devs can't make good games? Even something as easy as copying a superior Japanese game is beyond the trannies they employ nowadays.

Side note, there was a recent Yakuza event at the Gallery Nucleus in Alhambra, California and the series producer mentioned some interesting things:
>The idea of creating a Yakuza 0-2 (which would be set between Yakuza 0 and the first game of the series) has been bounced around among developers.
>Regarding Shin Yakuza, ythe game is set after Yakuza 6, so there are “plenty of opportunities” for beloved characters from past games to appear. The new MC, Kasuga Ichiban is completely different from Kiryu. While Kazuma from the very beginning is well known, has a position, and the support of many friends, Ichiban doesn’t have any money, friends, position, or support. He is the lowest of the low in terms of the Yakuza hierarchy, and the story is also about where he goes from there.
>If Katsushiro Harada would like to have Kazuma Kiryu in Tekken 7, they might think about it.

I think instead of making newcomers, they should make exclusive games based on old characters. Like for example make Majima-only Yakuza game fully focused on Majima, or maybe his other partners.

It wasn't bad, but I just couldn't get into it. Dunno why. The combat was solid usually, but some fights took unreasonably long and any difficulty just came from the length of it. I think maybe it's because I didn't play them in order or something, and didn't give a shit about any of the characters. Some of the side content was interesting, like that Battle Bug stuff.

That might be okay. If that's a suitable timeframe for Majima's marriage and its breakdown it could be especially interesting since that could add to his character in the same way that 0 did.
>>14509001
That's fine, they're not for everyone. You might've enjoyed it more if you played 0 before Kiwami though, since Kiwami reuses a lot of content from 0 (including most of your moveset) and improved 0's combat in a bunch of ways.
e7d878 No.14509080
>>14508655
Because the Yakuza games are all about the little details, and western devs are lazy shits who'd rather just recycle assets and farm out the majority of their game to some third world company. Writing a strong, character driven story that also overflows with tons of optional content is a ridiculous proposition by their standards. If western devs made the Yakuza series, it would be a series of walking simulators with QTE combat, and they would still be 1/100th as long, and written like shit so you don't give a fuck about any of the characters.

>>14509023
How much progress did you make? I can see the game not being very gripping to people new to the series. You're kept on a leash until Ch4 and combat might feel slow and simple without some upgrades.
I'd say give it a second shot. Kiwami is a remake of the original so it's all good, you're getting to know the characters. If that works out for ya, give Zero a spin and you'll see how much depth that game gives to the cast of the original Yakuza, particularly Nishiki.

Simple question. I got a quad for christmas last year and I want to try Yakuza. The question is should I pay Kiwami first or Zero? I asked the another Yakuza thread and got bullied. I also have Yakuza 5 on my PS3 but I never played it because I don't know if it's a good jumping on point.

There are only two good entry points as of this moment. Its either Zero and then proceeding to play Kiwami or 1 on ps2, then proceeding to play the series in order.
Playing Zero first is like playing MGS3 first. And Kiwami is basically Yakuza's Twin Snakes, but good.

Being spinoffs that sold a little less and being even more in depth with Japanese references and cultural traits.
Both of those probably made Sega think twice about the localization effort.
The mainline games barely sell in the West as it is.

PCSX2 for Yakuza 1 and 2 unless CEMU is stable enough as there is a WiiU rerelease of both of those.

I can't speak for Kenzan, but I got Ishin around Christmas time and it's probably my second favourite after 0. It's very good. It probably wasn't localised because to understand the story you have to have some decent background knowledge of the Meiji period (and I'm assuming the same is true of Kenzan and its respective time period), which isn't likely to be the case for many in the west. Plus, generally, spin offs tend to sell worse than mainline entries, and the main entries in this series don't sell that well in the west even despite their recent success.
The rest of the series' basic premise, beating up gangsters in the street, is a concept universal enough to not put people off, but everything about Ishin is Japanese as fuck. I don't speak weeb, but I've read that there are certain terms and parts of the story that wouldn't translate particularly well into English and other stuff in the game seems like it might be sort of taboo (e.g. Oryo, the love interest, looks and sounds pretty young).
69e4aa No.14511158

Yakuza 3-5 are on PS3 so there's no real point to 'remastering' them (lord knows a western dev would since every ps3 game gets rereleased on ps4).
And yeah, you're fine playing zero then kiwami. Every thread some anons will say you need to go back to play the ps2 version, but if story is your main concern there's no real need to do so.

yakuza on hard required a consistent block/attack pattern and rewarded counters. excelent fighting system with switching styles on the fly to adapt to different enemies.
bosses required pattern recognition and getting hit 2x is almost guaranteed death in many cases. small map with tons of details and things to do.
the fucking slot car racing in yakuza had more depth than most western games.

For what it's worth I remember some guys in the localisation team saying something like 'Sega wants 6 to have its time in the spotlight,' so if they announced plans to localise two games that most of the fanbase has never played before I could see that taking some attention away from it. Plus there's the whole question of whether or not it'd sell well enough to justify the time spent on translating everything (which is a lot in the case of Ishin, it's comparable to 0 in terms of the amount of content).
If they ever do localise Ishin I hope they get rid of all the unskippable cutscenes, it feels very much like a 'transitional' game in that sense. It wouldn't be so bad if its difficulty wasn't noticeably higher than the rest of the series, so in the likely event that you die to a boss on Legend you're probably going to be sitting through a lot of text boxes again (and, in the case of two, a boss intro over 30 seconds long). Apart from that, its bosses and enemies' damage output is what I wish the rest of the series' was like.

the game play also grew over time my friend, to involve yourself in something like yakuza, you witness both the characters and the game grow and you along side it.

The Japanese references weren't really that hardcore. The games were only very loosely based on Japanese history. Simple summary for you:
Ishin: Set in the political turmoil before the Meiji restoration, Kiryu is looking for the dirty rat that murdered his father, a masked man he can only identify based on his kungfu style. Kiryu believes somehow the Shinsengumi is responsible because they're the only one's who teach the style (historical group of warriors that defends the shogunate) so he infiltrates their ranks and joins them to find out who killed his daddy. He uncovers a conspiracy and it turns out some traitors are trying to sell out Japan to (((Western imperialists))), and Kiryu has to beat the big bad (((White))) devil.
Kenzan: In the prologue, Kiryu is a master swordsman who is recruited by the Shogun's men and employed as an assassin by some super high ranking Monk dude, the shogun's, top adviser. He is sent to assassinate the shogun's son while believing he was helping the shogun, the monk tricked him and he becomes a fugitive. Decides to keep a low profile and survives by living in a red light district as a security guard. After some time, a loli is sold into prostitution there, Kiryu befriends the loli, and she asks him to track down and kill the man who killed her father. It turns out, he is the one who killed her father. The loli is the heir to the shogunate and the monk wanted to use her as a puppet ruler so he could rule from the shadows. Late in the story, monk dude kidnaps Haruka, and you gotta go rescue her, the end.

You have it backwards, the calm, morose normalfag is the real Majima. He just realized that caring about shit makes your life a whole lot harder. That’s why he cultivates his Mad Dog persona, it lets him live life to the fullest without having to worry about the repercussions. Basically, all the scenes with Nishitani are Majima getting the ideas for prototype-Mad Dog.
You notice this in four when he keeps his act up before and during his fight with Saejima, only to drop back into being serious afterwards. What it boils down to is,
Majima cared too much about Saejima and that cost him his eye and a whole year of torture. Majima cared about Makoto and that cost both him and her much physical and mental damage. So I’m the end, he just decided to stop caring at least that’s how it’s described, he still cares or else he wouldn’t be hounding Kiryu for battles all the time, let alone save his life.

>>14517694
Seems like you're completely new to the series then and, at most, you're at Ch2.
You already know how to upgrade, Bacchus taught you that. Some abilities can be earned that way, you'll see the branches for progression. Meanwhile, the magenta dots are special, you unlock those abilities by training with the style's respective master. For Rush, it's the fisting artist at the parking lot.
IIRC the locked portions of the upgrade menu open up as you clear the Money Island quest. Don't worry, you'll know it when it starts. Make sure you finish it, the reward's good.
>What is in your opinions the best game in the series?
My favorite is Zero. Probably the best combat in the series (though Kiwami seriously improves on all of Kiryu's styles), the pacing is great, the story's engaging from start to finish, the side stuff is hysterical and the bubble economy setting lends it a very FUN ALLOWED approach, you can literally make more money in 10 seconds than in the entirety of Yakuza 5.
I think most regard 2 as the best.

Yea I got Yakuza 5 from the PS+ instant games thing a while back but I never played it because it had 5 in the title.

Kiryu is such a good character.

I had success using anything that wasn't Beast or Breaker. It's been a while but I recall landing about 3 hits with Brawler and switching to Rush to dodge around hits and then back into Brawler to get hits on his back. It was very hit and run. With Majima I think I stuck almost exclusively to Thug and occasionally would switch to Slugger if I was switched on enough to land hits without eating a massive hit afterwards.
Dragon of Dojima style works great too.

I always found Brawler and Thug the best since they deal good damage on top of being useful for hit-and-run.
Here's two tips for those styles:
>when you unlock Kiryu's square-square-square-triangle-circle grab attack, it works on armoured opponents like Mr. Shakedown despite the triangle move not knocking them over
>the kick that Majima's square-square-square-square-triangle combo ends with can be cancelled at any point by dodging in any direction, which is not only useful for getting away from Mr. Shakedown after a combo but also lets you follow up the kick with another attack on standard enemies

>So the Kiwami games are straight remakes of the original PS2 games?
No. They're different in many small ways such as some new content being included and some old content being cut. The first kiwami has 0's combat styles and the bosses have movesets borrowed from newer yakuza games to compete with this. There's an entire area cut from Kiwami 2 but they've added a Majima story line where you also get to play as him. The music of each game is also re-made/remixed, some tracks don't appear and are replaced by something else entirely. Embed related was cut entirely from Kiwami 2 unfortunately, didn't even get a remix. I'm sure there's more changes I'm forgetting and a lot of these changes put a lot of people off. I personally prefer the originals but Kiwami does draw me in with the new content. I wouldn't recommend playing them in place of the originals but rather in addition to them, especially given that you can just emulate the first two for free.

Brawler, use running Light>Heavy when he misses a charge, Light>Light>Light>Heavy when he whiffs that clothesline that makes him lose balance. You can try Light>Light>Heavy when he does his regular string but be on the lookout because the fucker delays it.
When you git gud, you'll rail him with the Brawler counter.
Also remember that Heat actions have diminishing returns and sometimes it's better to conserve it for the defense and poise boosts.
>Majima
For the meantime, use Thug and a technique similar to Kiryu though not as efficient. At some point, your training with Fei Hu will have you learn how to use weapons without breaking them as long as your Heat remains in the first bar, and you'll have the Cooling Towel item, add a strong weapon that won't break and you'll tear his ass in a minute.
Alternatively, just do what this guy does.

That's the point dude. The Yakuza gameplay won't translate well because guns are abundant in the US. Yakuxa's gameplay works because Yakuza business is typically done with hired muscle. Not guns. Guns are rare in Japan. Brandishing a gun even to do shady shit in the street would immediately get you branded a criminal. It works in these games for that reason or it's a little more conceivable.

70s-80's Vegas would be the best place for a flashy yakuza style game. Even in that area, guns were rarely flashed or used in high profile areas. Would bring too much heat.
But if the game is reliant on fighting mechanics, you'd have to hire japs for that anyway. The Warriors was a pretty great urban/fighting/gang game but even there, the fights feel a bit plain.

It is.
Yakuza 4 is solid, it's a great game and a big upswing from 3 which I wasn't very happy with. 3 felt like a big drop compared to the first two and 4 was definitely leading to the pedestal that 5 hit. You'll play as a few different characters and a bit less Kazuma. I mostly liked playing as Saejima and Tanimura

I would say play Yakuza 2 on PS2, Kiwami 2 isn’t too much of a drastic change like Kiwami 1 was, unless you really want to see the incredible story of Majima’s life being shit because all the women he loves he can never be with because the Yakuza life is too hardcore.

I think anon meant putting money figuratively. Basically, put those Bronze and Silver hostesses to work because they're pretty capable. One of your starting Bronze hostesses has a very high Party stat, she can get a lot out of clients who want that, even mega-rich ones at the final club.

what are you talking about? The game runs virtually flawlessly aside from some Ghosting. More importantly, I am taking about emulating Yakuza 2.
