why?

>Hostess Substories required to fight Amon
I hate 2 and 3 for this

I have a confession. I only did ~10 substories in this game
I only did 2/3 of them in 0/K1/K2 also. starting with 4 I did every substory in every game in the series. kinda want to go back and finish the ones I didn't do

>>715218050 (OP)
Is this good on rpcs3 nowadays? I'm not playing the censored tranny version

>>715220726
Mods revert the changes completely, retard

Beautiful Eyes

What's the point of playing a Yakuza game if you don't artistically spend 100+ hours 100% completing the game??

>>715220849
I'm pretty sure he's talking about the substories that were removed.
You can't restore those as far as I know

>>715220849
No they don't you lying faggot. There's one mod that restores licensed music and some minor censorship. There is none that restores the actual cut content. I wonder, are you going to own up and apologize, or go full UM IT DOESNT MATTER WHY R U OBSESSED??????

People used to like playing the games they bought, and liked them having a lot to do. Instead of considering them all a backslog they're being forced to grind through.

the western PS3 version of Y3 has a lot more cut content than the 2 or 3 substories with the crossdresser in the Remaster

>eager to experience Yakuza at last
>here's your introduction to the series bro
>play it
>plat it
>never feel like playing another one again

>>715218050 (OP)
Y3 really is the odd one out. It's the jankiest one in the series with no full remaster, and unlike Y4 and Y5, really does feel more like a PS2 era game

I'm enjoying Okinawa but soon I'll have to leave to Kamurochō again

>>715225072
>>715222015
So are you going to make an actual argument? Why is it so hard for you to say that tranny censorship is bad, anyway?

>>715220726
The running from a crossdresser (which they translated to tranny well before the mental illness arrived from the west) is actually terrible. Sure, they caved like the tranny faggots they were hoping to duck, but imo, nothing of value was lost. I would go so far to say that the running minigame is the worst part of 3, and not having to do it 2 or 3 extra times is just fine.

The PS3 version doesn't even have mahjong or the cabaret girls, so that's an instant negative.

>>715225149
100%ing the games is what makes them worth playing.

>>715227037
*except for Ishin. I wouldn't recommend anyone try to 100% that game unless you are a masochist.

>>715227037
100% achievements is cute, now show your in-game completion lists.

>>715227134
I always do the CP lists in every game

>>715227134

>>715227187
Alright I kneel

I got 0, Kiwami 1 and Kiwami 2
Hopefully I didn't fuck up by not getting the rest of the franchise but these were really cheap so it's kind of a no brainer
Am I right in thinking that 4, 5 and 6 are all modern remasters in line with the games I bought?
Why don't they remaster 3?

>>715218050 (OP)

>>715227353
I some other ones, but I can't find them. I managed to do 100% run in K1 in like 33 hours. I've spent way too long playing these games

>>715227187
When you get to a point where you know for certain that you have fewer years ahead of you than behind you, you will likely not feel so great about your time spent. Not that there's much better these days.

>>715227434
They did remaster 3

>>715220726
>>715225072
there's a mod to restore the removed content from the ps3, that's the best way to play

>>715227618
Oh
Why do people say it's shit then?

>>715227536
I never regret enjoying things. I only truly regret having to go to work, which is a necessity but I want that time back so I can do more stuff I enjoy doing.

>>715227463
I've yet to find the motivation to really learn to play shogi or mahjong

>>715218050 (OP)
i would say
>lol don't play them fag
but unskippable cutscenes that occur from you just walking down the street occur often in this series, and no matter how funny some of the substories in the series are, that is a really gay thing

>>715227809
nta, but it's because it's a clunky mess. Yakuza 2 has a Remake, which is likely the game you bought. It was remade in their upgraded engine. Y4 and Y5 are on the same engine as Y0, which still holds up. Y3 is on the older one with super clunky animations. The remaster basically just readds stuff like mahjong and fixes up the blurry textures.

They are going to do a Remake of Y3, probably in 2026 or 2027, before they release Y9 / LAD9.

>>715227916
Shogi Droid app for shogi, it simulates the game, you just set where the cpu goes and then it tells you where to move. It's way too complicated. Mahjong on the other hand is ridiculously fun once you get into it, but the learning curve is a major hurdle.

>>715225149
They're basically all the same, so that's a normal reaction

>>715227037
>100%

But I'm just here for the literal Sega perfect arcade games inside the game m8,which one has the most I heard they had virtua On Cyber Troopers & Virtua Fighter 3tb?

>>715228063
>you just set where the cpu goes and then it tells you where to move
that's not fun. But I don't care about achievements (as I don't even have them since I have 0 through 7 on GOG) nor too much about going completionist in-game.

>>715228334
The most arcade games is either Yakuza 0 or Yakuza 7 (Like a Dragon). Y5 has some Taiko drums, and Y6 has Puyo. There's also quite a few in the Judgment games. You can check them all out on the faq site; just type Yakuza X faq to find them:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps4/816306-yakuza-0/faqs/74451/arcade-games

>>715228468
you can complete most of the shogi requirements for the CP list just by doing the shogi challenges which doesn't require you to actually learn the game. I think there's only one or two games that really put the shogi requirements high. I want to say Y5 is the worst offender.

>>715226056
How's the poker?

Midnight bump

>>715226056
It's funny that they kept introducing new areas, only to have Kiryu go back to Kabuki-cho every fucking time.\

>Here's your 10-20 hour new city bro
>BTW, you're going back to Kaubuki-cho.

>>715218050 (OP)
why not?

>>715228334
>Virtua Fighter 3tb?
Yakuza 8/RGG/Like a Dragon 8: Infinite Wealth is 3tb. But Cybertroopers isn't there.

If you're playing these for the emulated games, you're going to have a bad time, because some reuse certain games (VF5: Final Showdown was in Y5 or 6, and then Judge Eyes 1-2) and others put one title in and then it's gone for the next game.

You're playing these for the adventure/story mode/gameplay and the arcade games are just a bonus to spend some downtime on.

>>715228063
>Mahjong on the other hand is ridiculously fun once you get into it, but the learning curve is a major hurdle.
Weird, I'm the opposite. I think Shogi is simple-enough if you're coming from Chess. The only real "learning curve" is the piece upgrades and all the indivdual pieces (if Sega translated them into English it'd probably be easier to understand).

Mahjohg is just a foriegn language since it changes Gin Rummy into certain things ("No you don't want to open your hand, you'll lose!") when the base concept like Shogi should be simple enough to understand.

>NOOO DON'T LET ME HAVE A BANG FOR MY BUCK, I NEED MY GAMES TO BE 5 HOURS LONG BECAUSE I'M A LITTLE BITCH WITH UNTREATED ADHD

>>715231687
What did they do with these English conversation substories in the translation by the way?

>>715227536
You have to be a faggot to regret spending time on things you enjoy. Stop pretending to be some nihilistic smarter than thou nerd and you'll feel better about your life.

>>715227037
damn, how much did take you to complete ever game? i player 1,2&3 in a row and I feel like I'm burned out to start Y4

>>715235201
scroll down a bit

>>715235236
oh sorry, my bad

>>715232053
thanks anon looking at the list judgement would seem to have the most variety of the bunch

>>715234873
From what I remember they just keep in English but with big spaces in-between letters like your image. They don't localize it into a different language or anything like that.

>>715235201
Worst thing you can do with the Yakuza games is try to binge them. Take a break.

>>715235201
Never ever binge long games in the same franchise. Yakuza is a prime example because it is full of asset reuse. Go take a break with some short games

>>715226692
I played the PS3 version in 2016, I certainly don't remember the game dropping the tranny word but I remember Kiryu calling the character "it" ("I finally got away from it")

>>715234873

the serie would be perfect is there was a GTA customization system

Bump

>>715237698
It's okay to threads die but I suppose you could bump worse

>>715235537
Don't remember tranny in 3 but in 4 Akiyama says "tranny bar" a few times

I think I made him cool enough

Y4 is the best Yakuza

>>715236450
oh dear

Rolled credits on 0 a couple days ago, was pretty kino. Kiwami installed now which I'll maybe start today. Hoping I don't burn myself out playing the games back to back like this.

>>715239494
Don't feel bad about taking a break although the timeskip might be big enough to keep interest exploring the differences.

>>715218050 (OP)
yaks

I do recommend Sonatine to anyone who enjoys Yakuza 3

>>715224937
>People used to like playing the games they bought, and liked them having a lot to do
It's half column "This", half column "People used to not care if they didn't get to see all The Content(TM) in one playthrough and different players seeing different side quests was a cool thing that led to discussions among friends"

>>715218050 (OP)
Shinada chads rise up

Oh shit 1 and 2 are back up on vimms lair. There's a patch for them I'm supposed to get??

>>715235201
nta but it took me 7 years to go through Y0-7. 1 game per year specifically to avoid burning myself out, except for Y5 and Y6 since the latter was super short anyway. All in all, it's almost 800 hours in total with good chunk from Y0 and Y5.

>>715227037
>no Dead Souls

fake completionist

>>715225149
well its a long game to plat
my plan was to play 1 every year till i finished the franchise but i've been busy with others games
and by finishing the franchise means till 6 because 7 doesn't exists

>>715221339
i only did 99%
sorry i couldn't learn some shit minigame

Why is platinuming so prevalent in the Yakuza community? You have 20+ games do you really need to milk each one dry

>>715237038
You can buy individual pieces of clothing in 7G, it's the one good feature they have

>>715250430
Is it that more prevalent than in most playstation majority communities? I suppose the ingame lists also drive people towards worklike checklisting

>>715251024
Feels like it is, people keep complaining about platinum issues in Yakuza games. Looking at 8's cheevos, 4.4% have a platinum. That's a lot isn't it, for a game as huge as 8

>>715251157
Idk about console but on steam you can plat without ever playing ng+, it's considered DLC or someshit.

>>715251157
Well the only platinum I have is Drakengard 3 and that seems to be at 12% I imagine its fans are also fairly fanatic.
It's a blessing to have these from GoG and really not care about any achievements that may be there since i'm also not on galaxy.
