SEGA's Yakuza series thread. Is Haruka gonna have to Komaki Parry a street punk?

Am still on chapter 7 myself, still maxing out cabaret club. Its important if you want Majimas…

Spoiler

secret style, Mad Dog, but hell you probably guessed that already after Kiryu if you did the Royal Real Estate.

Tips. Am still getting trying to get concrete evidence as I cant read Japanese hence the better information sites dont really cut it for me. HAX did a good summary tho so ill throw in my 2 cents.

Hand Signals and first Impressions is where its at.

First Impressions is how good a time the guest is having.

Pink - Very Satisified
Orange - Satisifed
Green - OK
Blue - Pissed
Red - Angry AF

The better the mood of the guest, the more they are willing to pay, if they are unhappy they might fight or cause trouble, either way they wont give you a yen. Time stops when you sit a guest so take your time and get the match up right, you gotta match them up with somebody who sets the best mood whilst simultanously keeping an eye on their hp.

Sometimes you wanna use your best girls constantly, dont, give them a rest and level up your ugly bitches, eventually they will be good too giving you more room to be flexible.

Hand Signals are important, the faster you answer them the higher the chance you get a bonus order and a HP increase for your girl, both really important. Gunna rip of a sites pics for better explanation, will spoiler them if they end up too big.

Now I think its actually worth buying all the properties now. Am seeing a direct correlation between fan amount and high quality guests. This isnt yet confirmed but I got a lot of high rollers non stop hitting even the Mars location at 7000 guests. It could be total guests however, whereas am sitting about 20000 I think. Buy that shit up, make more money in the long run.

Party Fever ability, ive figured this out, i think.

The more you earn the more your special ability bar will rise. Its got 3 levels and understanding what these do is very important.

At lvl 1, any guests you have in the pink mood state, very satisfied, will enter fever mode and start spending like crazy.
At lvl 2, any guests you have in the orange mood state (and pink) will start going nuts too.
At lvl 3 youll kick off a party with everybody feeling at or better than the green state.

I normally charge it to lvl2 and have my guests sitting down for their first order before pulling the trigger. Ideally I got 3 or 4 mega rich guys seated so I can make some really nice money. At the start though when all you have is poor and average joes, this is still fine. Use it to exploit as much cash as you can according to your own circumstance.

Check!

Ok so this is crucial to get this shit down. When you get the tab from the guest, if they are in the pink/orange mood, always praise or gift your girl. Restoring their HP is far more important than getting more fans, if you got your cabaret game down your gonna be flying with fans no matter what, however the more hp your bitch has the more money she is gonna make.

I tend just to praise them so am not spending money, unless they get an extension (which is only worth trying with a plat/gold bitch in the pink mood), in which case ill gift em for that extra hp boost.

Trouble makers, honestly now I just swap out a better girl when she becomes available. I do shout at the girl you get from the errand-kun quest cause karma is a motherfucker but in general any unruly niggas causing a scene at my place gets kicked to the curb.

Hope this wall of txt helps.

Trying to take over the shot bar, dude telling me about my RL favourite drink, Laphroig 10 year lol, this attention to detail is immense. :bee:

Yeah its more direct resource management than straight up accounting. But the bonuses for taking over, finish out a rival club gets you the cash – I put into Majima in one look at the skill trees and was broke again so fast.

Majima is a lot cheaper to upgrade but I think will be harder in the long term. Am making 60mil a night at the club, think I’ll get it up to a 100mil if am lucky lol.

Damn you guys going deep on all the sidecontent. I mean… I want to aswell but i rather do it on another playthru.
For now i just wanna see the, so far, awesome story unfold.

I am at that chapter where Kiryu

Spoiler

goes 2 Sotenbori

I wanna do it on normal, so my hyper powerful dudes can roll through the hard and legendary modes lol.

Fever Party lvl2 made some unhappy mega rich guys do the no pants dance so my theory isnt 100% yet, the ability is stronger than I first thought.

Beat club Mercury earlier. Fuckin wrecked his shit. Made twice as much as he did that run

Edit: Also FUCK POOL this shit is RIGGED AF. Shit is more BS than catfight gambling. I shouldve recorded the match I just play to have evidence of this busted ass shit. Makes no sense

Pool is the only mini game I can beat the bitches at, the dance game holy shit, dunno how that even works.

Was supposed to investigate some shit on chapter 2 but got stuck trying to win over a 9 year old girlfriend with the mini car races while buying high school girl pantsu. This fucking game meign lol.

I beat Mr Shakedown for the first time doe, had to upgrade my parts with the quickness because I have the feeling this little girl is going to beat my ass.

Pocket racer gets intense bruh, best move it along till you get to the real estate so you can buy every part on the shop (it gets updated every time you win a race).

You also can get 2 amazing parts from the secret alley way merchant (sub story) which for me was crucial for winning the whole thing.

The last 2 parts are from the million yen prize machine.

Good luck lol.

Yeah she keeps kicking my ass or I get disqualified. Last race she fucked up and all I had to do was finish with my fast as car by I jumped lanes in the last lap :grimace:

Can I get the secret alley way merchant in chpt 2?

Do any of Kiryu’s variations have a running attack that does not leave him lying flat on his face like the drop kick in Yakuza Zero? Can he turn a punk into a snowman with a carrot?

Beat that little bitch. Now what to do…

At chapter 10 now. I’m guessing if I go to the next area as Kiryu, I’ll be locked out of the real-estate shit huh?

You eventually unlock his classic dodge —> triangle move that kind of works that way. It costs 30 million though and is a ways down in his Brawler/Rush tree.

That dodge —> triangle move was completely broken in Y3, 4 and maybe 5. You can do endless blockstrings with it to a point where the AI doesn’t know what the hell to do other than block or take the hit. :lol:

Can probably do all that stuff in “premium adventure” mode, then use that save file for the harder difficulties? Not a 100% sure though.

Anybody know when Club Moon challenges you? I almost have twice as many fans as that club, and I did the “check out Club Moon” thing

Unless there was something else I gotta do.

Also had a run last night where I made 100mil !

Edit: NVM i just needed to do some main story progress

Yea am blocked from the final moon challenge too, good to know I just move the story along. Got 2 girls to get, (Simon substory and dance bullshit sub story) so I’ll do that before advancing.

AP I dunno if you can unlock the alley merchant in chp 2, I did it in chp 5 iirc.

Finished the Club Minigame and fully upgraded Thug style. I stomped the shit outta that Club. Thinking about moving on storywise to get back to Kiryu. But may grind out the club shit a bit more to atleast finish all Plat hostess sidequests

Plat hostess training I found tedious tbh, Yuki is my waifu I didn’t really care about the rest of em but I methodically finished each bitches training before taking over a new club lol.

Also lol using your 8 bronze girls at hitting club moon fans, Youda still washing the blood of the walls fucking hell. It’s hilarious cause they dudes coming into my S rank club n getting hit with ghetto bitches, every damn one of em was pissed off and fighting.

Yo you guys hear about the kinda mixed fan reception regarding 6? Some like the story and some dont, but that can be for anything.

But gameplay wise they said the game doesnt have a lot of heat actions, especially situational ones or weapon ones. And I think theres no ground/stomping heat actions at all. I played the demo. Combat feels weird due to new physics. It feels more like weighty and heavy/realistic maybe? Also 30fps so that might be why its so weird since 0 feels very smooth.

They also said a few areas of Kamurocho is blocked. And they said that could be a sign the game was rushed. But aside from that stuff I havent heard any other glaring complaints. Just that there shouldve been a diff game to test the engine on and overall didnt match the hype of it being Kiryu’s final game plotwise. But i only see a small group saying this.

And Im scared to research any further because i almost walked right into big story spoilers twice lol

Yea I was sad to read all that, guys on gamefaqs has all but written it off. Basically a buff to graphics and a major nerf to literally everything else. Even the ps4k is locked to 30fps yet 0 is 60.

Welp, still I hope we get 5 lol, eager to play that next tbh.
