Oh my god.



Day effin' 1.

Understand that this demo has a few story sequences that will not be in the final game. Heck, a lot of the stuff in the demo are actually place holders for Yakuza 6, since they ported many of the stuff from Y5. The final game will look even better basically.

do we need to play from yakuza1 to know the whole story?

you can play Kiwami. That the remake of 1. And Y6 demo is so gooooooooooood.

I got the yakuza4 game for ps3 psn plus but find it hard to connect. Is this series always require to have a continue play through the play the latest installment.

Yes, the Yakuza games do have stories all interconnected with one another (except for 2) quite closely.

There is a story recap in Y4, it does give you a summarized back story of the main plot. They are however IMO, not deep enough. It's better to just go watch all the cutscenes on YT or something.
But many of the big side quests, of which returning NPCs all the way back from Y1 appears in Y4 (and 5, and presumably in 6 too). That's where new players will feel completely lost because their backstory aren't explained.

I personally don't think you should have started from Y4, rather should have started from Y3 instead (go find 3rd hand copy or something). Since Y1 and Y2 are more closely connected, Y3 on the other hand starts off on a "clean state" thus it is easier to understand the saga from Y3 to Y5.

so kiwami still not confirmed for translation?

No, not confirmed sadly.

really need to play kiwami 'cause i never finished the original Yakuza

131 hours and only 90.50% scratched. I'm hating the Coliseum part because that part is taking me forever. Hahaha.

enggerish versyun out ka?

PSN versyun saja der. Yang tu bulan 12 lepas dah kuar dah. heheh.

saiya rasa itu US PSN saja keh?

Ha ah. memang US jer.

99.70%. 1 more hostess, 1 more heat action, Pachinko and Virtua Fighter 2 to go. Then i get try and the platinum out of this thing. Sheesh.

That did not take 163 hours. It probably went around 200. It wasn't that hard. But clearly a better challenge than Yakuza 4. I still need to try Dead Souls though again. But I'll probably press on with Ishin first.

Damn bro, you insane.

I'll update thread closer to Yakuza 0 release.

Kyo, is your copy a digital copy? I can't download it off the store.

Y5? yeah. I downloaded it fine last year though on my US PSN ID. What's up?

Well well well.

Poetry of Life is the last chapter in the Kazuma Kiryu lead series. This should be very intersting.

Well, sadly no updates if there's an English one. But I'm sure there will be a chinese one releasing sooner than anyone expects to. haha.
