>>was it a decent remake?

it's more of a new way to play 2 than a "replacement" like kiwami 1 feels. It's perfectly solid and shows how quickly they're touching up the new engine but it still feels like 2 should be played on its own first. Especially since they lost some songs that really made certain cutscenes in 2 miles better

It had virtual on, didn't need much else.

>>15505705

2 was my favorite in the franchise, even if the gameplay wasn’t completely refined just yet. That’s why I was hoping this was good. So it’s “serviceable” from the sounds of it.

>>15505709

… whelp, I’m buying it tomorrow.

>How was it?

I thought it was okay, the gameplay was decent and at least the bullets doesn't stop you completely which I had problems with in recent games. Hostesses are a huge step up from Kiwami, but it's a shame they won't reuse any of those girls in the remastered version of Y3. Though personally I found some of the parts extremely hammy though like Kaoru and Kiryu making out before the bomb detonates and the autotune rock song that played in those said parts doesn't help either.

>Was it a decent remake?

Never played the PS2 version, but comparing to the dogshit known as 6, it's an improvement.

>was the localization decent?

It's okay.

>>15505698

I have a problem with yakuza. Its just too many games and even if you buy multiple, new ones release just in few month. By the time i was playing 6 i was already burnt out on the series.

>>15505783

they've doubled down on localization speed so 0,6 and the kiwamis shot out quick as a bastard and its understandable anyone would get burned out, especially since a run through of the game if you goof off a bit and do all sidequests can easily clock 60-80 hours. No harm in taking a break it's not like they're going to disappear if you don't play them within release window

>>15505807

I've played them all within release window since i got into the series finding 1 and 2 in a bargain bin, I don't get burned out on it so easily but it makes sense why one would.

>>15505807

Tanimura was a bland character with an awesome fighting style. Saejima and Akiyama were good characters. In terms of player characters, my list is probably

Kiryu

Majima

Akiyama

Saejima

Tanimura

Ryuji with a fucking robot arm cannon (only good thing about Dead Souls)

Haruka

Baseball guy from five: shows you how much I care about him I can’t recall his name.

>>15505842

>Tanimura was a bland character with an awesome fighting style

I wouldn't go as far as "bland' but he didn't stand a chance against guys like akiyama when it comes to charisma. Supposedly his VA quit the industry and in a recent popularity poll of top 20 yakuza characters tanimura didn't even make the list, being beaten out by a hostess, the dog from the orphanage, the villain from yakuza 3, and ono michi

>>15505857

>I just realized their Fist of the Northstar game comes out next month

week*

>>15505894

pick SEGA over capcom

>>15505901

Fair enough, but I’ll wait to make sure Sega continued the trend of good localizations before dropping 64 dollars, I’ll also wait and see if the game is decent. They are using their experience and engine from Yakuza, but usually when somebody makes a new game now of days it’s just a beta for the sequel.

>>15505698

Didn't Kiwami 2 have removed content? Like the third part of Kamurocho that was in Yakuza 2 wasn't in Kiwami 2, so some scenes took place at different locations.

The host club bar side quest got removed, and even fighting the yakuza boss with the diaper fetish was removed (from what I heard).

>>15505929

that third tiny little city isn't in anymore for some reason, where you find the korean survivor in the shogi hall. I'm gonna assume they didn't have time to rebuild it or whatever

>>15505934

>>15505929

oh and i forgot to follow up, that section of the game isn't gone, just relocated into a location within Sotenbori

>>15505986

holy hell, i keep hearing Lost Paradise is great from people who imported and stuff, what pissed the japs off

>>15505986

The japs didnt like the FotNS game?

>>15506022

Doesn’t look like it. From what they are saying it’s just a worse Yakuza game, though some of the reviews are a tad petty such as getting mad at the voices.

their review for Yakuza 6 are just as scathing and put me off from playing it even more than I already was. I had heard they fucked up the characters, but man is that reinforced by their reviews.

>>15506032

the following will contain real spoilers for the plot of six regarding why japs got so mad

you might already know haruka is popular cuz she went the idolshit route in 5, in 6 she gets knocked up which ruined japs love of muh idol purity, but furthermore she got knocked up by a chink and that really chapped their asses

Storywise it has some faults but not enough to call the game bad, and I give it credit for doing a gutsy move like that and actually having characters point out in story that Kiryus protective ambitions can affect him negatively

>>15506061

whoops I guess the double spoiler thing doesn't work here, first time i've tried it despite posting here for like 4 years now

>>15506061

That would make sense. I actually knew that plot point, but I didn’t factor in their autistic love for idols. I do think the chink thing may be pushing it a bit far. That theme has always been in the games but I imagine it’d feel the same as watching a character we enjoyed grow only to be impregnated by Jamal in the final game they appeared. Mind you I’ve got nothing against the Chinese.

Do Kiryu and Date get a solid end at the very least?

>>15506032

The japs have 6 all wrong, so im willing to bet theyre wrong about FotNS too. Its odd that jap devs tend to have stellar taste, and make great design choices, whereas the jap audience seems almost as petty and casual as the western AAA audience.

6s only real downfall is the combat, which is understandable because the game was made from scratch in a prototype engine. The combat is about as basic as the first games, so you fall into a routine pretty easily, but is by no means bad lile the japs claim. It also adds alot of great new, but situatio al Heat actions, and the levelling system is a fantastic step up. Save for that, its really the standard Yakuza fare. Play it yourself and get your own feel for it, but me and my friends think it was pretty good.

>>15506085

>Do Kiryu and Date get a solid end at the very least?

The ending is interesting I wouldn't want to spoil it for you but I'm going to put it behind a spoiler tag with no fuck ups, read at your own risk

Kiryu beats sense into harukas baby daddy (whom didn't even know he was a chink, kinda like the karou thing in 2), then after beating the main bad guy, and barely surviving once again, he's presented with a situation in which he fakes his own death to protect the sunshine. The only person who knows the truth is Date and he begrudgingly keeps the lie. Kiryu penned one letter to Daigo before the final battle as a "will" of sorts telling him to uphold the tojo clan with the pillars of it (goro and taiga). Kiryu walks off into the sunset as Harukas child is taking his first steps

>>15506066

You have to use halfchan spoilers inside fullchan spoilers to get double spoilers. Might work the other way around too.

>>15506117

I thought halfchan method didn't work here, oh well I know now, thanks

>>15506113

>>15506117

I’ll stay away from the spoilers and just ask, were you personally satisfied with the ending of Kiryu’s story?

>>15506185

It was quite boring anime tier ending. Like being Yakuza has no real consequences.

>>15506198

That’s disappointing. I suppose I’ll enjoy Kiwami 2 and then just pick up 6 when it’s dirt cheap. If nothing else and everything in the game is just meh at least I’ll have Virtua Fighter 5.

>>15506185

I didn't hate it, it was a bit better than I was expecting but at the same time felt rather anticlimactic considering the series

>>15506218

Yeah, I get what you’re saying. The series is usually so on point with it’s story and characters that you’d think they would nail the ending of THE main character, Hell, even 3 with all its campiness was an enjoyable little beach episode. I’ll just keep my expectations in check and not expect anything to terribly amazing with the ending when I play it and hopefully I’ll come out like you did.

>>15506198

But he isn't just some low rank thug, he literally became the god of the Yakuza. An incarnation of the dragon. The yakuza aren't exactly like the mob or american crime syndicates. You can get out and live a regular life. They just wont let you come back and tell you to fuck off.

Did you play zero?

>>15506394

>>15505986

Reminder japanese didn't liked Kiwami either. The thing is nips are very picky about those games.

Yakuza 0 topped everything too well. Or i guess nips actually hate when devs constantly pull new games like Koei/Ubisoft.

>>15505929

You mean Shinseicho? That was a part of Osaka and it was completely removed along with all the content associated with it, except for plot critical content that took place in it which was moved to Sotenbori. Also, the outdoor mall area along with the triangular park in Sotenbori is also missing in Kiwami 2.

>>15505842

>Tanimura was a bland character with an awesome fighting style.

Indeed. Though his fighting style was really overpowered because you could parry attacks from any side, including melee weapon attacks, making his fights a bit too easy. The only character who could completely ignore his parry was the crooked detective Sugiuchi. He had a few attacks which would break your guard even if you were in parry stance, and when he was in heat mode a few of his string enders became guard breaks as well as a few of his attacks becoming unblockable and unparriable iirc, I remember if he got you with a charged yama tsuki from heat mode you could only evade it, otherwise you'd take the hit even if you were in parry stance. Even then Sugiuchi was really easy and if you just played normally chances are that you won't get hit at all anyway, I only experimented with him because I'm a moveset autist so I had to see what it was like.

>>15506401

no, go away and play the rest of the series first fatty

>>15507168

fuck off nigger, i already have and im not buying a ps4 to play the rest of it

>zero still not cracked

WHY NOT!

>>15507384

Denuvo truly shows impatient colors of pirates.

That was the game i was desperate enough to buy on ps4 and start spending shekels on a console. You can have some patience before getting a crack. The game was worth the money, especially 0 since its probably the largest yakuza game in terms of content.

I completely finished Yakuza 6 and even got all the trophies. I liked it, but to be the end of the series it is kinda disappointing. Fucking Yuta and fucking japanese politicians.

I'm going to start 0 and after I 100% it all I'll move to Kiwami 1 and then to Kiwami 2, even if it takes me years.

>>15507390

>cracking = piracy

I just dont want Denovo damaging my hdd. I don't have any evidence to prove it does , just the memory of my computer making strange clicking sounds when I bought JC3.

I always heard 6 was disappointing for the longest time before the ps4 rerelease was even a thing. Doesn't help that I hate the chinese for anything but their lemon chicken and tight chinese dresses, so I was immediately livid at the idea of Kiryu losing his daughter to some chink who doesn't deserve her.

Disappointing if Lost Paradise is as shit as the japs think. But I'm kind of taking a long break from video games right now anyway.

About to head to Hiroshima for the second time in 6. What are the kamurocho-exclusive items you need again?

>>15507930

Pork bento and MUSCLE+

>>15507930

Rizap protein

Pork bento lunchbox

Sushi set

>>15507938

Thanks lad.

>>15507939

>>15507943

Oh yeah, the sushi set too.

>>15505705

the final cutscene with the bomb was way better without the out of place lyrical music in the original. The only reason you prefer the old one is nostalgia because the scene itself is quite good.

>>15507873

>Disappointing if Lost Paradise is as shit as the japs think

It had nothing positive going for it. The combat looked like sloppier a Yakuza game and it goes full on in the laser beams from your arms shit from season 2 instead of martial arts and auras.

They also ruined a bunch of characters with shitty boss battles from the first one.

>>15508084

Should I expect Kiwami 3, 4 or 5? Do you believe they are going to make a Yakuza 7?

>>15508539

I believe they are already porting or giving 3 a light remake. I really don’t see much reason to remake 4 or 5, and wasn’t 7 already confirmed focusing on a character from a spin-off?

Anyways, 3 is pretty meh in terms of both gameplay and story. It definitely isn’t horrible, but it’s pretty lackluster.

>>15508562

I liked 3. I just wish there was a spin off about Majima and Saejima yakuza adventures.

>>15508588

That’s the thing with the Yakuza series, for as lackluster as some of the entries can be compared to the other games, you really can’t say any of them are “bad” games, especially when compared to most games coming out now of days. About the only one you can really knock is the first game and only due to aspects of the combat not aging terribly well.

>>15508539

Maybe next gen. This gen 3, 4 and 5 are just HD rereleases. 3 HD already came out in Nippon and it has some shit cut, that being the Tamashiro family crest getting butchered because it looked a bit too much like the Jap imperial flag (NEVER FORGET THE CUMFART WOMEN GOY!), the tranny substory being cut because it's too problematic and some hostesses being swapped with the shitty Kiwami ones because the originals' contracts ran out. Also one of the minigames that was cut in Western releases of the original 3, 4 and 5 which was a trivia game was also cut from the HD releases… for all regions.

Also there's the fag Kiryu was smoking on the cover but really, who the fuck cares about that?

>>15508562

I honestly didn't dislike 3 that much, even if it's the first game where the story really goes full retard, it somehow didn't go as full retard as 4 and 5 did imo. However, what 4 has going for it over 3 which makes me like 4 more are the introduction of Saejima and Akiyama who are cool characters in their own right. I also really liked Tanimura's combat style, but otherwise he was kinda boring, at least the game wrapped up his story nicely.

>>15508539

>Do you believe they are going to make a Yakuza 7?

They've already showed it off it's the one where you play as the guy with the jew hair remember?

>>15508821

But that isn't technically Yakuza. I meant another Yakuza with Kiryu. The ending in 6 was pretty shitty and left me unsatisfied.

>>15508613

>I honestly didn't dislike 3 that much, even if it's the first game where the story really goes full retard

>Implying that isn't 2

I mean, 2 is loved because elements of its story are really great, namely Kaoru and Ryuji, but on the whole, it's a mess. Especially the EVERYONE IS JINGWEON business. Did you believe it for a second when it was revealed that Terada was one of them?

>>15508900

>tfw your whole plan to destroy the Tojo Clan involves getting spared by your would-be assassin, joining the Omi Alliance, rising up the ranks, waiting for decades until some shady business with 10 billion yen happens involving one of the Tojo Clan's upstart bosses, which then gets the whole Tojo Clan into an internal war, along with some asshole politician getting involved with it since it's actually his cash, then you hope that the Chairman of the Tojo who recently got assassinated put some dude who is in jail for killing his family's patriarch as the Tojo Clan's successor. Then you hope that that dude would just solve all the problems and then bank on him being the Tojo Clan chairman for a grand total of 15 minutes before naming YOU as his successor. Then you weaken the clan by surrounding yourself with ineffective yes men which causes Tojo powerhouses like Majima to just fuck off, weakening the clan significantly. Then you fake your own death and hope that the now weakened Tojo clan gets completely wrecked by the Omi Alliance

Okay anon, I admit you're onto something there, but it's still not orphan-hating bioluminescent alphabet agency basketball Americans, who are really just terrorist arms dealers (read: a CIA black op) whose whole endgame is to get Japan into a series of wars just so they can profit off of the ensuing rise in the arms trade in the region.

>>15509113

They got rid of the jazzy tracks didn’t they?

>>15509113

>but found one requires rank SS with Haruka

That shit's actually really easy in K2, anon. Shocking, I know. The wast majority of her requests in K2 require either ordering a specific type of food or going to a store to buy something. If you get a minigame request which you don't want to do, you can just catch a cab and go to the other city and her request will be reset. Oh and she has requests in both cities btw. With my method I got to SS rank by just buying her food and trinkets.

Also, Memejima's moveset is the same as in Y0, for the heat move which takes out 3 guys you gotta have both heat bars filled since to do it it costs 2 bars.

>>15509134

Block Head Boy, Hit & Kill, North Menace, Slyboots, The Grudge, Tracker and West Insanity are gone. Edges is still in but it's now full of autistic camel jockey wailing.

Kinda funny you mention jazzy tracks since I'm listening to the Y5 bar tracks atm. Comfy stuff.

>>15509162

>Haruka

Thanks for the pointers. So far it's been simple stuff besides asking me to ace the golf bingo which took me some tries but I pulled it off (I find that shit kinda fun so no biggie). In theory, I think it's a good thing because it's a additional incentive to 100% the mini-game portion of the completion list but there's some stuff I just don't want to bother with, if not just because it's too much for my bird brain like shogi and mahjong. And I still got to make 2000 points in the batting cages (for me using the expert bat in the challenge with vertical break balls seems the easiest).

>Majima

Yeah, I figured his HAs but is it just two? Admittedly, I haven't tried the wall/table hand stab. But the problem is that I'm not finding his move set to be the same because it seems smaller.

Anywho, surprised there's no mention of Project Judge in the topic.

>"something entirely different"

>heating up thugs in Kamurocho

Nagoshi pls

Oh yeah, it's been confirmed that Fighting Vipers and Motor Raid will be the arcade games in PJ.

>>15507950

I'm thinking more of the scene on the bridge where kiryus is stabbed which not only had a miles better song, but some of the edits they made to it lost some of the impact. Personally I liked the song in the bomb scene as well, definitely a better track than the one used in kiwami 2

Forgot to embed because Kiryu smashed too many bikes in my head.

>>15509220

>Admittedly, I haven't tried the wall/table hand stab.

I don't think even Kiryu has those anymore, but I could be remembering wrong.

Also, the real sin for all those missing tracks is that they played during substory fights, which gave you some variety, now it's just either Push Me Under Water or Outlaw's Lullaby.

>>15509224

Honestly, in the stabbing scene I can get past the gay fucking song they put in K2, the real sin in K2's version of the scene is that stupid stabbing sound effect which completely ruins the mood of the original.

>>15509113

> how do I Virtual-On?

I just spam jump and attack. Defeated third robot that way. Don't have to go further because that's furthest haruka wanted me to go.

>>15509149

I don't know much about mahjong either and did Kiwami 2 Mahjong stuff with following knowledge.

In order to win you need to make a hand. A hand usually consists of 4 sets + 1 pair. A set can be 3 consecutive tiles or 3 of same tile.

Never steal, pon/kan/chi unless you know what hand you are going for. If you think you've got a proper had and game thinks so too, you can just declare riichi at this point gamee would just fast forward until you can ron to steal someone's else tile or tsumo. Tsumo gives more point IIRC. That's what I did, won easy/medium table at Kamurocho and Medium/Hard at sotenbori. Used the cheat item on tournaments.

>>15509162

>Also, Memejima's moveset is the same as in Y0, for the heat move which takes out 3 guys you gotta have both heat bars filled since to do it it costs 2 bars.

Was kinda bummed how barebones the majima story was in regards to gameplay but holy shit how hard can they make goro suffer in like an hour and a half of content

>>15509237

Didn’t they say it was a VR game or does it just have optional VR features?

>>15509284

>which completely ruins the mood of the original.

Yeah, in another thread awhile ago an anon pointed out how in the original take of the scene it would take you a moment to realize what just happened but in K2 it's really blatant and not as clever

>>15509312

And he was right. The Crazy Ken track in the original is a mood enhancer, as shitty as the autotuned pap in K2 is, it isn't the thing that kills the scene.

>>15509345

The use of the Crazy Ken song blew my mind back when I first played it, for one I genuinely enjoy the song but the original scene always kinda makes me feel that cutscenes in the end, ended up far superior to all the modern attempts on cinematic storytelling. Since you can actually use techniques used in CINEMA to play the scene out, and you can just skip the scene if you're replaying and have seen it a few times over. Walky talkie segments really don't have shit on even the simplest cutscenes

is a torrent out of Yakuza 0? Always wanted to play a yakuza game but not sure they're for me, considering that jap games seem to agree with me.

>>15509748

I don’t think it’s cracked yet, but if you want go emulate 1 and 2, but keep in mind the combat has aged a bit. This is a really good video on the games and it’s what initially got me into the series.

>>15509776

Looks cool, although I'll avoid emulation as I've had big problems with the framerate while trying to play MGS3. I'll wait for a crack of 0, how good is it in relation to the other games?

>>15509817

Among the best, if not the best one.

>>15509817

MGS3 doesn’t emulate well for whatever reason. I played through both 1 and 2 on PCSX2 and didn’t have any issue, but if you want to wait for 0 that’s fine, and it’s considered the best. Still, it’s really neat to see how the series grows with each entry. It’s a lot harder to go back than it is to go further in the series, so keep that in mind.

>>15509853

>>15509837

Thanks

So is the combat in these games shitty, or am I missing something fundamental? I'm on chapter 6 of Yakuza 0 and a lot of the enemy's attacks have nearly no startup making it infeasible to dodge on reaction, so I just try to stay out of their range and wait for an opening, but if I get in and punch them more than twice they often counter out of my combo and stunlock me, which I can't block or dodge out of. God forbid they knock me down, because then as soon as I stand up and before I can even move, they attack and combo me into another knock down.

Basically the startup and recovery on a lot of moves seem completely fucked, and at the moment (I haven't unlocked all the abilities) I don't seem to have any way to deal with it.

>>15506394

The fuck does Japan know? They voted to make Nioh easier when the real motherfuckers, the westerners, asked for it to be harder.

>>15511643

>Yakuza 0 and a lot of the enemy's attacks have nearly no startup making it infeasible to dodge on reaction

I don't know about that, I usually can dodge most enemies and bosses consistently when I'm focusing on it. It's another story when I'm trying to force a combo like a retard because I have health to spare, but dodging is in no way infeasible.

I mean, you're not trying to dodge in beast mode, right

>>15511643

I think you just really suck at the game since you're having problems with dodging this late in, but I can't really tell you what you're doing wrong if I don't actually look at you playing. The only enemy type I can think of which has attacks where only God can dodge on reaction are goons who have the moveset where their idle animation is jumping in place, namely their 3 hit combo with basically no startup.

>>15511707

No wonder the game felt so goddamn easy, I thought it was because of the build I was using. It's a real shame too, since the combat in Nioh was leagues better than Molasses Souls.

>>15511835

How early can you start beating down Mr. Shakedown to go for the max money?

>>15512105

Pretty much right away, he hits like a fucking truck and has a chance to do a combo that completely wipes you out, but his telegraphs are pretty large. You just have to stay focused because he can be pretty intimidating.

The real great thing about him is that losing not only isn't a big deal, it's actually beneficial. You'll get the experience fighting him as a player, and whatever cash he takes isn't lost - he keeps it until you beat him, so his cash prize only gets bigger and bigger over time.

That's actually the easiest way to get lodsofemone in the late game, just lose to Shakedown and watch your investments grow in his care.

>>15512105

Depending on both your skill and as soon as you're able to figure out which strings are safe for whiff punishing him, you can do it really early if you figure all this out. Also, when he does his charge attach which has the same animation as Kiryu's advanced guard from Beast stance, all of the frames are seen as active frames (meaning you can get hit at any point during the move until it ends).

HOWEVER

Since all the frames in that attack are active frames, it means that you can do any counterattack, be it a tigerdrop, the demonfire counter or whatever else Kiryu and Memejima have from their stances, without even timing them, you just have to be close enough for the counter to proc.

>>15512131

>>15512141

I'm saving for the counter attack and to get the x1.50 bonus. Is the swordfish gun good to beat him? it has infinite ammo and costed nothing.

>>15512150

No idea, I never used any weapons against him.

>>15512156

I'm at the start of chapter too, but I'm already in a completion quest because I can go arround the rest of the game like a beast, that's why I ask.

>>15512160

I dunno, generally if a weapon has less than 150 damage I believe then its damage sucks ass.

>>15507677

You don't avoid denuvo by pirating it. Cracking only bypasses denuvo's online checks, you STILL install denuvo when you pirate a cracked game with it.

>>15507193

He means go by release order.

>>15512176

I see, and I guess you don't get the Legend style until chapter 5 after doing the sidequest involving money.

Well, let's see how my autistic completion quest goes.

>>15512217

>you STILL install denuvo when you pirate a cracked game with it.

Except it's not active. The .dlls are still present, but if they are cracked and don't ping the denuvo servers, the files don't launch and remain dormant.

In other words it doesn't matter at all. The cracks work as intended with denuvo disabled.

>>15512238

I think it's chapter 6 actually since part of Kiryu's tycoon sidestory gets locked behind story progression until you get to chapter 6. For Majima's cabaret club sidestory you can finish it right in chapter 7 as soon as it unlocks, and if you do you get his Mad Dog style.

For Fuck's sake! The arcade puntuations are ridiculous! 5 million points in each driving game is hell.

Silly question, but do darts in 0 change your performance? the fucking assholes in the dart house keep drunking me up.

>>15514179

Sometimes the games are over complicated. Also, why are there cheats for western gambling but no cheats for stupid things like mahjong or whatever, which have rules that makes no sense.

>>15514095

At least that forced me to actually play fucking OutRun i've been avoiding so much.

>>15514207

Darts are really easy, just imagine a tip of a dart as your cursor. And aim center with a tip when aiming.

>>15514221

Mahjong has a cheat item though, it gives you the strongest hand at the beginning which just makes you instantly take all of your opponents points. It used to be called Lucky Tile in the earlier games, but now it's the Peerless Tile. The games with dice also have cheat items, and Koi-Koi has the Lucky Hanafuda Card, but Koi-Koi isn't that hard honestly, I figured out that the easiest way to win is to go for the cards with ribbons as you only need 5 of them to make a winning hand.

>>15514243

Do you get those items in 0?

>>15514249

You don't get shit in terms of cheat items in 0, not even for the Western gambling games, that's why 0 is the hardest to 100%.

Also, forgot to mention for Koi Koi, but the ribbons are an easy way to win because if you just get 3 blue or 3 red ribbons with writings on them ribbons, then you get a hand that's worth 6 points. There's 10 ribbons in the deck, 4 blank red ones, 3 red ones with writings on them and 3 blue ones, which is why it's easy to make a hand with ribbons, since for junk you need to gather 10 junk cards.

>>15514273

For fuck's sake, I'm already feeling it is going to be a pain to get the 100% of this game.

>>15514335

>And now I'm having one of those expanding cosmic brain moments. It's a interesting game but I can't quite wrap my head around it.

I actually know how to play the game and the way the AI is programmed it's actually easier in Yakuza if you barely know how to play the game and somebody that knows how to play the game (like me) just tells you to go for ribbons and never declare Koi after you get a hand, since it's low risk. Going for high-value combos is going to check the completion list faster of course, but that requires knowing how to play the game, which involves knowing how to read the board state, calculate probabilities, knowing optional rules involving cards like the Sake Cup, knowing which month (aka round) corresponds to each suit etc.

In short, it's not worth it because it takes much longer to learn how to play the game than to just cheese it by just collecting one of the three possible hands involving ribbons, those being collecting 5 of any type of ribbon (1 pt.), collecting all poetry ribbons, which are 3 red ribbons with writing on them (6 pts.) or collect all blue ribbons, which are 3 blue ribbons (6 pts.)

>>15514404

>>15514469

The visual is very helpful as now I see there's a visual theme to every month. I guess actually knowing what the cards are is a necessary step, maybe the first at that. That said, card games were never never my strong suit probably because for me they were always a fleeting thing with a lot of time in-between so I'd quickly forget the rules of whatever I was playing.

Anyway, Sega released a couple of extended trailers for Judge Eyes. Embedded is the gameplay one.

Here's the story trailer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p19Mou6VjUU

Maybe one day they can recycle most of this guy's moves for a Akiyama game. :^)

>>15514469

I never finished Yakuza 2 because I tried to learn how to play Mahjong and that let me down a dark path. I never finished Yakuza 3 because I was enjoying playing Hanafuda too much.

>>15514572

Yeah, it's easy if you remember that each month corresponds to a plant, but a visual aid can still help a lot since November is really kinda abstract. As you might imagine, you can only match a card from your hand with a card on the field of the same month, after that you draw a card, if the drawn card matches the month of a card already on the field, you pocket those too.

Also, I checked and the 2 Viewing hands are on by default and aren't actually optional at all. Also, the Poetry and Blue ribbon hands are worth 5, not 6 points. Apologies for remembering it wrong, I haven't played in years since the AI in Yakuza is a pushover and it's hard to find actual people to play with, especially as a gaijin who can't speak a lick of Japanese.

If you end up enjoying the game I suggest you look up more in-depth guides (it's not hard finding guides in English which go a bit into the depth of how to play the game) and apply it to your game, a lot of the skill in the game (assessing board state, calculating probability and such) comes from experience. After you are able to wombo combo the AI in Yakuza to death and you feel confident, then comes the tricky part, which is trying to find real people to play with.

>>15514610

I know, right? Koi-Koi is much simpler than Mahjong imo, or maybe I'm just too much of a brainlet to understand Mahjong.

Fucking Mahjong. Even the easy one is fucking impossible and the machine constantly cheats me.

>>15514610

>I tried to learn how to play Mahjong and that let me down a dark path.

No path with mahjong is a dark one. The only bad thing about it is how limited the options are for playing it in the west.

Judge Eyes looks amazing. I played the demo and the combat feels different from 6 and Kiwami 2. It takes some getting used to. But I really enjoyed it.

>>15505842

I fucking love Akiyama. He's my favourite playable character. I was hoping he'd be playable in 7, but I supposed nappy hair needs time to shine and win people over.

Goddamn 5 was my favourite game, no matter how convoluted the story was.

>>15506185

I was somewhat satisfied. I personally think they could have handled it differently, but this way they could do some things in the future games if it's required, or if they feel like it.

>>15514087

Seeing Yuki in that dress really brought up my love for her. She's also adorable in her normal outfit.

Hard to believe they are censoring 3 again after everything. Definitely not picking up the remaster any time soon.

Finally beat Amon. First attempt but a very ugly one that thanks to a crucial mistake. Like Yakuza 6, the fight really starts when he's down to his last 20-15% HP when he activates a shield and pulls two swords. The start is fairly simple, he uses the sword move set with somewhat easy to read moves and one Tiger Drop will shave off one full bar. The Amon nuance (this goes to all four) is that they take diminishing returns to a whole new level - if you use a Heat action on them, the next of the same type will seem to do zero damage (maybe does 1 point) and my mistake was using them before the last phase so I had to Tiger Drop him his Dark Souls 1 poise ass to death.

That said, I can't get mad because the music is just amazing. Easily the best track in the game and one of my overall favorites though Yakuza 6's rendition of Fiercest Warrior is my favorite.

And a extra to anyone that plans on playing the game or has just started - don't get hung up on stat points, they'll come to you by just playing the game. I did a bit of grinding and now feel like a complete idiot with 6000+ points on everything with just three skills to earn.

>>15515711

>which was especially offensive after the team got up on a pulpit saying they have a "no memes/references" rule.

Sounds like the same dickhead from 0 localization who put tumblr memes in everywhere

>>15515711

Thanks for taking the time to point those out. Like you the reference bothers me more than anything, but considering the game is so big that’s not to bad, it also could have been a lot worse.

>>15514572

Hopefully Sega doesn’t stop localizing these Niche games. I really want to play this but I guess even in the worst case scenario and it doesn’t get translated it’d be easy to import and there’s no doubt somebody would have an English guide for it.

>6

>Baseball team activity

>First match against a team of shit-talkers, with an absurdly shitty team

>Lead by 9 points for the last round

>Enemy scores 10 points at once

>Oh no, we got crushed by the enemy team, we're so shit

I mean, it's obvious they wanted the outcome to fit the story, but surely they could have disguised this forced defeat better than that.

So I found my old PS2 was working and I can burn some shit to play on it, was wondering about the Yakuza series. Emulate the first two games, or Kiwami and then 2?

>>15516241

Kenzan has better story while Ishin is better when it comes to gameplay.

>>15520847

Sega has been just about hitting it out of the park when it comes to catering to their core audience. Never would have thought they’d be one of the last bastions for good vidya practice.

>>15517671

Go with 1 and 2 to appreciate just how crazy the series grew, though some of the gameplay hasn’t aged to well. When you get to 3 and 4 the gameplay gets real good and when you get to the ps4 games it starts getting a bit of a DMC4 feel

>>15522876

It's fucking good, toaster friendly.

>>15524788

bulletproof vest. even then though its a pretty fucking stupid boss fight.

>>15524788

Dodge nigger dodge and punch him in the back.

>>15525223

koi koi can be cheated on with a hanafuda card, dragon sp is from the the fat dvd guy at the end of the game, same as the photon blade.

>notice there's a new update today

>check the free DLC you get with it

>it's a fucking bazooka

WEW

>>15525872

Which game?

>>15525882

Kiwami 2

>>15525252

>koi koi can be cheated

I know but I want to give it a fair shot. A knowledgeable anon even dropped some good pointers. That said, I kinda want to leave it for Premium hence why I asked if Haruka's trust carries over.

Still, no way I'm ever completing that list because mahjong.

>>15525872

>it's a fucking bazooka

Too bad we can't swing it around as a tonfa like Sango does.

But speaking of free DLC, don't forget to check the store because in the middle of all those absurdly priced CC units, there's a free Majima bun that gives a shitload of XP.

Finally!

I learned how to play Mahjong!

I just have to hit square while making a hand until something happens.

>Get Kiwami 2

>Go up to the first Ryuji encounter, then realize I want to complete 6 first

>I was really let down by pretty much every aspect of it at the time so I dropped it around chapter 7, but I'll at least rush the main story

>Get to the point of no-return with free travel

>Realize I don't really want to end this at all

It's criminally smaller in scale than the other games, but there really is an effort put into what is there. The bar especially feels special. Even the random encounters are much less of a chore when you realize the running attack is a fucking bulldozer more effective than any multi-target heat action. Also chapter 12's boss fight was really unique.

>>15527502

I went in somewhat apprehensive because of all the criticism, especially all the talk about the story and characters but in the end, enjoyed it a lot with its story and characters being some of my favorites in the series. Felt like a much more grounded Yakuza 3. What it suffers is from a severe lack of content.

I'd goy for a special edition if it had the rest of the fluff content, combat on par with Kiwami 2 Judge Eyes (I want style switch now), full Kamurocho, some extra eateries and play spots in Onomichi like old school fishing, revamp some play spots particularly the cat café that could use actual mini-games once it's running, add different encounter types like in Yakuza 5 (squatting gangs, unmarked enemies you bump you, breaking arguments etc.) and ideally make them truly random which would be a big step forward for the series as these things always have preset spots and another thing where the Dragon Engine games need improvement is having people inside places and if they really want to kick it up a notch, place food on tables maybe even have a eating animation for NPCs.

For the main campaign, I'd only ask a change to the finale; set it on board the boat. Would be cool if Koshimizu and Matsunaga had a little more screen time but it's not crucial.

>>15527657

Well, is a Yakuza game, it will never go wrong. The only critizism I have is that Yuta is a fucking retard and I thought I raised my dear Haruka better. But well, if she loves him I guess I'll have to trust my dear little daughter to that fucking chink.

>>15527781

Like an idol's life is good in any way. Haruka's the one at fault here. She fell for an incredibly self-destructive meme, realized it was a nightmare but too late, forcing Yakuza Jesus to make time for her fuckup.

She at least tried to do the right thing running from media attention to spare Morning Glory, but her fuckups are more sticky than Kiryu taking the blame for Nishiki's murder. She has sex with several dudes while she's in hiding. That's hardly Kiryu's fault, and out of all the boys wooing her, at least Yuta had no idea he was a chink.

tl ; dr : Haruka became 3D out of her own volition.

>>15527862

Not now Amon. It's been over 40 years and you still keep stalking me. Go find a hobby.

>>15527037

Remember what I taught you, anon. 12 suits, 4 cards per suit, only cards of the same suit can be matched. Go for ribbons and the two sake cup hands I told you about, if you don't think you'll be able to, look up a list of hands and have it for reference, but going for junk (min. 10 of the plain cards) should be the lowest risk option. NEVER koi, as a beginner you'll most likely only get fucked. If you have to put cards on the field, look at what your opponent has, that's why it's important to have a list of hands for reference. For example if you see your opponent having the boar, deer, and/or butterfly, it's a shit idea to discard one of those three since you risk giving him a good hand worth 5 points.

Hope it was better than 6.

>>15528040

You'll see why when you fight Amons.

On that note, am having troubles with the last bouncer mission and while looking up strats found that Kamiyama's inventory expands by selling him weapons and gear up until you sell him 5 million worth. Shamed to say this would have gone completely unnoticed by me.

After 6 and that Ichiban surprise ending, is anyone looking forward to Yakuza 7?

What is this Yakuza Online crap?

>>15528875

>is anyone looking forward to Yakuza 7?

I'm on a wait and see status but admittedly not really all that enthusiastic about it.

Besides the slimy Nu Yawk jew MC, I don't like how the series keeps blue balling me with its cast. Sometimes they really knock the ball out of the park with its characters and you're left wanting more but nope, then comes another game and has that again and then you get shit like Yakuza 0 with a cast so good you want a game for every one of them. Memejima, Prisonjima and Akiyama are the obvious ones but there's also Goda, densetsu gokudou Jesus Kazama and his apostle Kashiwagi, Nishiki (for the longest time I though he was gonna be playable in Kiwami) etc.

>What is this Yakuza Online crap?

The only kind of whale hunting the West won't complain about. It's mobage crap to make you spend money.

Was looking for some palpable info on it, devilleon has a video about the vote they had for what characters people wanted included - http://ryu-ga-gotoku.com/cp_vote2018/

Yuki in the top 10!

>>15529439

>Is there any info on Shin/7 besides ichiban being mc?

Nothing, nope.

Meanwhile, after raging like a motherfucker, I finally did Haruka's Virtual-On request. Pulled it off with the girlbot because she's got a sort of hyper mode when down to 40% HP or something. The game's kinda fun and I legit learned something but the arcade stages are preset and the difficulty spike once you get to that fat fuck in the 3rd match is absurd. Fuck that asshole and fuck that stupid ball that chases you through the whole area at whatever speed and for how long it feels like.

Also because I was close to getting the What a Player trophy, I did Haruka's poker request. Actually learned how to play Texas Hold 'em and hell! even had some fun. So all that's left for her list is Koi-koi.

Also also, clearing the last bouncer mission on Normal nets you the War God Talisman which fills the Heat bar automatically. This coupled with Extreme Heat Mode makes you almost unkillable, tried it on the Hard mode version for shits and giggles and put down two Amons plus a gazillion chinpiras with 1HP.

>>15528823

Didn't know that till now myself since I collect weapons not sell them.

>>15527686

Really this kind of destroyed the Haruka story. After all that crap to preserve what is left of Kiryu's love she becomes a teen pregnancy statistic with a dash of nip racemixing propaganda.

Thank god I completed the Mahjong challenges, because I'm starting to suspect the machine is cheating me.

Reminder that Lost Paradise's coming out tomorrow boys.

>Shin doesn't even kill himself

Wow, just wow

>>15528412

I did it Sensei! Even went beyond the request and got the full 1000 points. The chart really worked wonders, really started to see the whole thing in a different light, what combos to aim for, what cards I need to claim other cards (always made it a point of grabbing the Moon one asap) and paying attention to the opponent's hands and give fluff cards accordingly. Even made out like a bandit a couple of times, called Koi and got 20+ points. That said, it was on Beginner and there's still one thing I'm yet to fully understand which is the automatic claim of cards, I still don't fully get how that works.

Anyway, Haruka's requests and the Adventure sublist are done.

>>15532419

"Mamma mia! Itsa il Cane Furioso Mario Majimo, capitano da famiglia!"

Instead of scowling men beating the shit out of one another, you get a bunch of manlets in tacky suits flicking their chins at each other.

The Yakuza games seem interesting to me, and I want to start with Yakuza 0. I have some questions:

>Is the pc port worth it despite (((Denuvo)))? I don't have a ps4 at the moment.

>How would you rank the Yakuza games?

>>15532911

Definitely worth it at $20. I'm still doing sidequests and I'm 30 fucking hours in. I just wish I could play more than 0, 1 and 2 without buying a console ;-;

>>15532911

>How would you rank the Yakuza games.

Of the ones I’ve played,

Yakuza 2 > Yakuza 0 > Yakuza > Yakuza 4 > Yakuza 5 > Yakuza 3 > Yakuza 6 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dead Souls.

>>15532644

>"Mamma mia! Itsa il Cane Furioso Mario Majimo, capitano da famiglia!"

Alright you got my sides there, chum

crack never ever

>>15537598

God fucking damn it

Yeah this would probably happen, but mothers are even more butch than the kids

>>15539857

I wonder why there are no female mobsters.

In Spain, gypsy clans control most of the drug traffic and they are ruled by a patriarch or a matriarch.

>>15540040

I could go on an autistic tirade about muh lorerape and muh Kenshiro would NEVER work as a bartender or whatever, but if you don't care about that, it gets too easy to fight groups if you have the two aerial moves from Burst mode and after you unlock perfect channeling, the latter of which is story dependent, but you get it really soon, after leaving Cassandra in the beginning of Ch. 5. Now, the reason why this works is because perfect channeling instakills any goon and they leave behind "goodies", depending on the deathcry. Most of the time it charges up your 7 stars meter. If you do a just frame perfect channel (you gotta do it JUST before the channeling ends), you get your meter charged up instantly.

>>15539446

Keep trying, Denuvo shill. You won't make another fucking cent from me or anyone else that I've told about your shitty, shitty product

>>15532419

Well, if we're going for hypothetical scenarios, bear with me for a minute.

I wrote a novel with kind of a complicated premise, but all you need to know in this context is that the heroine is the youngest daughter of an exceedingly wealthy and powerful Florentine family

We're talking they're secretely hiring 20% of the population to act as spies and bodyguards

Since the novel is from the perspective of the girl, this black ops force is an ally, but I did imagine a Yakuza game wherein the protagonists' family would in fact be the villains, and Italian Kiryu would beat ethics into them.

Also Naples is fucking shit

So whats the difference between a cabaret club and a regular cabaret?

>>15540050

>I wonder why there are no female mobsters.

Women control 3/4 of the wealth of Mafia associations because they serve much more lenient jail sentences and usually their hubbies would be behind bars. Any time some big clan is getting their members arrested, half of them are women.

Are there any tips to play blackjack and poker? I feel like the game is cheating me because it constantly get 20s, 21s or blackjacks.

Is there a decent let's play of Kiwami 2? I won't be able to pick it up for a long time and I'm dying of curiosity.

>>15540050

But that's because all gypsy women turn into ogres once they hit 30 or have something crawl out of their rotten wombs.

>>15543141

If I'm not the mistaken, the club variety is smaller in scale and more affordable. IIRC Majima comments on it at the start of his story in Zero, how they're getting chewed by the clubs.

>>15543798

>Women control 3/4 of the wealth and serve no jail sentences

With a few changes, this set up sounds awfully familiar.

>>15543836

Blackjack (and oicho-kabu) feel very luck dependent but for Blackjack I've earned the points for Haruka's request by simply having a shitload of chips and bet big. Sounds like RNGesus is screwing you hard on Blackjack but we all have those moments like getting a 20 on double down and the fuckin' dealer ties or 21s because fuck you that's why.

Poker on the other hand, it's important to learn the hands and assess the situation, normally if after the first round you got nothing to work with or there are odds another player will get a higher pair, just fold.

On the subject of games of chance, I'm now kinda hooked on Koi-Koi. Funny how things turn out. That said, I'm impetuous and salty and not cut out for the gambling scene.

Side note, FotN still hasn't made it to these parts (there's digital but I want a physical copy) but let's take a moment to appreciate Jagi's theme because this shit is killer.

Also, the store has some free themes - Thouzer, Kenshiro and Raoh - basically cool stills with their themes playing. Sadly no Jagi theme.

Even Dynasty Warriors puts more innovation and graphical improvements in their games than Yakuza does. Yakuza is a meme game with the same setting, same characters and character movesets, same UI and graphics for generations.

people suck its dick because the subversion joke of seeing a badass guy play gay shit like bumper cars never gets old, like a redditor laughing at the same shit for 20 years.

Kiryu himself is a boring mary sue bancho archetype with no depth.

fuck it

>>15543141

>>15545280

Cabarets had a full band, performers, and so on, it was like a theater production every night. Cabaret clubs drop all that expensive stuff and go straight for what you came for: "sexy obasan in leopard sweaterwoman talks to you while you drink something really overpriced".

>>15546129

As far as I can tell, cabaret clubs and hostess clubs are synonyms. Maybe cabaret clubs used to have smaller performances (Sunshine has a stage, even though it never gets used) but eventually dropped it altogether.

Does the combat in FotNS get any better? It seems like you need to use finishers non-stop to ramp up your 7 star guage faster, so half the combat is just rewatching the same special moves till you can go into overdrive mode.

The specials don't seem to have consiatent activation like a lot of heat moves in the Yakuza games did, at least so far as I understand.

>>15548570

When you get the ability to do perfect channeling (should be pretty quick, I don't remember exactly but it's either during Chapter 4 or at the very beginning of Chapter 5) the gauge builds up faster because enemies leave behind energy balls that you can pick up that charges it up, if you do a standard perfect channel it fills up one star, if you do a just frame channeling it fills it up completely. The exceptions are fat enemies who leave behind the deathcry weapon and the big enemies who leave behind health. Against bosses though, you need to fill it up the old fashioned way.

The activation is consistent, it depends on the combo string you used before hitting the pressure point. For example to get Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken it's either 5x light attack, 4x light attack+strong attack ender, or if you hit their pressure point while they're in the air. Go to abilities and hit triangle and then go to secret techniques, it'll show you which string you have to use to get each one.

Against giant enemies you'll always do the Ganzan Ryozan Ha regardless of string. To do the two other techniques against them (one of them you have to unlock) you have to unlock and use various stages of the supercharged channeling strike (bottom skills in the Skill tree). Small enemies don't have a technique you can use against them except for the counter technique you can unlock.

Also just a heads up, you have to do 2 playthroughs to be able to fully level yourself, because the only way to get golden orbs is through beating chapters and there's 20 skills that require it while you can only get 10 from one playthrough.

>>15548641

I would love to know what this is from

>>15545425

>meme game

that doesn't actually mean anything.

>>15545425

When did buzzwords become a substitute for actual arguments?

>>15554331

Yeah, some of the bosses are quite tough, and for the coliseum duels a few are extremely tough at higher levels even when you have all tools you can unlock at your disposal. I had the most trouble against high level Rei and Targa. Targa has a kick that I simply just can't evade, it's like a full-circular move in VF and Rei evades like a motherfucker and none of his attacks or strings leave him close to you when you evade to his side. Thankfully, coliseum Targa has low health even when he's max power, but coliseum Rei is still a bitch to beat.

I’m thinking about playing Kiwami 1, 2 and then 0 as the final game. Would that be a good order? Other than that I’ve played 1-4.

>>15555684

No, play them in release order.

>>15555684

That's about the worst order possible, kiwami 1 and 2 both directly reference 0 a lot.

>>15555446

It's large enemies I find most annoying, even though i have my charge attacks to max level know it doesn't seem to break their guard worth a damn, maybe I was just too reliant on using grabs to break guards from the other yakuza games though

>>15557806

You mean the big guys who either have massive hammers or the Mr. Shakedown moveset? Yeah, you can't break their guard, the best way to beat them is to attack them while they're recovering from their own attack.

>>15557829

that explains it, a lot of moves are described for fighting "large enemies" but there's like 3 varieties of big guys it seems

>>15557838

Yeah, there's the usual big guys, then there's the fat guys, then there's the giant guys. The fat guys count as the same as the usual big guys in the "large enemies" category for the purposes of doing techniques. Fat guys are also the only ones who drop the deathcry weapon if you do the perfect channeling, while giant enemies are the only ones who drop health.

So… I was wondering. Would you play a game with Haruka figthing using Kiryu's style?

>>15561553

>it seems they're not inclined to make games with the other protagonists.

That's what makes me sad. I want a Majima+Saejima adventures. Especially with Saejima.

Or make a character creator and make an original yakuza story.

Also, I mostly want to see Haruka being able to defend herself, but maybe I just liked how Haruka talked in the Yakuza Online trailer.

>>15561583

After the Ryuji game, my ideal Yakuza game would be with Saejima and Akiyama with the Zero/Kiwami combat system but unlike Kiryu and Majima that have a style to fit every archetype, I'd like the multiple styles for Saejima and Akiyama to stay within their archetype so Saejima would be all about brutalizing everything into utter submission and Akiyama stay the speedy, stylish type.

Something I'd love to see, and while the idea came about when entertaining my autism about a Ryuji game it would be perfect for Saejima, would be a style focused on grab chains that branch off depending on the inputs so after choke slamming a nigger you could choose to follow with a giant swing or scrap his mug on the ground and then you could add environmental options like pick the guy off the ground and toss him against wall to prep a grab that uses it or a Heat Action etc. Could also have Heat Actions that are exclusive as chain finishers.

Bump with some new Judge Eyes / Project Judge footage, the actual footage is between 29:50-46:40. It's mostly a quick show of Ch1 but there's a glimpse of some things like the skill menu which is a idea notepad like Tanimura's revelations and there's a hint of a room customization feature. From the combat, it mostly shows the wall jump moves.

Combat looks pretty good and two styles is a big step for the Dragon Engine but I'm still weary about the detective portions of the game because tailing missions can be a bore at best and annoying trial and error at worst and then there's the identification portion which runs the risk of of being "spot the well done NPC model" unless they up they real up the graphics quality.

I keep trying to get into Y0, but I can never make it past the tutorial fight with the Plaid Lads- the combat just feels so fucking awful.

>>15569219

Are you really this fucking garbage at videogames?

>>15569273

Yes.

>>15505794

>>15505783

>too many games = burnt out on the series

Before Kiwami hit the scene I did an emulated play-through of the first two games for PS2. I loved them and realized I was missing out on a great series. But then I bought Zero and picked up Kiwami just to support the series and found myself burned out halfway through Zero. The remakes of the games, while technically the superior versions, somehow lose its charm.

I plan to eventually pay through the rest of the Yakuza games but don't have enough free time to get around to them all. Especially with games like Xenogears, Dragon Quest 10, and XC2 Torna DLC, on my currently-playing backlog. Too many games, not enough time in the day. I honestly sometimes don't understand how some anons, even if they are unemployed, have the time to play so many games.

thankfully the garbage demo of Fist of the Northstar elevated my desire to ever play it

To those who got or are getting FotNS go grab the free Kiryu skin DLC while it's available, I think it's gonna be up for a week or something. Also, get the Jagi theme.

>>15561495

Fuck yeah I would. It'd have to be a spinoff though

>>15574869

It's a pretty nice theme I gotta say, shame I don't really like Jagi as a character. Toki theme when???

How can the batting of 0 be so fucking difficult? I'm not sure if the only things I won't be able to complete is the batting center, outrun and maybe the 100 millions of the catfight club.

Codex is the only scenefag cracking games right now and he's cracking literally everything in no particular order.

My sympathies anon. I've had the exact same problem and I'll tell you right off the bat it's going to get worse. IIRC it has to do with a rubber that swells and touches the internal eject trigger, a pretty glaring design flaw.

I did what's shown in this video (essentially, you'll deactivate the manual eject) and I can vouch for its efficiency. The other proposed solutions - let the console cool down or tight a specific screw that's interconnected to the eject button - are temporary and won't fix it.

thanks for the tip, i was going to try the tightening the screw solution tomorrow but that might be a smarter idea

Jagi has his theme locked to ps+ members. Those fuckers knew it was the best one.

It was ps+ only for a leaf like me. I guess it just is the US store.
