It's open world?!?!?! I'm a little interested too now but I'm a bit xenophobic. Is it relatively westernized like Resident Evil?

It's kind of open world, but not very big. It has two cities both really well made. And not really western. In fact the game has japanese voices.

What? You mean subtitles? I can't stand to listen to any language other than English and German.

I'm also interested in this series. I've heard good things about it but never got into the series.

But I'm really just posting to say 'Xpescially' doesn't make sense.

your right. I have such a trigger finger in regards to replacing e with x when e starts the word



So come on, tell us. Are you enjoying it so far? What chapter are you in?

And yes guys, he has Yakuza 3.



Yakuza 3 is awesome so far.

- The random battle thing is cool. I was not xxpecting going into this game.
- The Sub stories are completely retarded but addicting and the ability to always end up in a fight somehow is entertaining.
- The dating thing seems unfinished, each girl obviously has a taste in what they want to do but I cant seem to figure it out.
- Bocelios shooter is addicting. Claw machine pissed me off.
- Mini games are overly difficult, that might have to do with the fact im not familiar with games in general but theystill seem complex
- Fighting system is awesome but limited. Im kinda surprised because virtual fighter members worked on this game and it also has a 2 button attack and a throw button but is deeper. I also annoyed at no way to deal with blockers seemingly.

Part 1 end

There are guard breaks. Square, square, triangle and the like.

The dating feels unfinished because Sega cut off the hostess clubs from Y3. Yakuza 4 has them however. Basically, in the hostess clubs, the hostesses ask you a bunch of questions, and you try to please them. After getting them interested in you, they ask you out on a date. In Y3, it's just the dating part - no questions.

You unlock more moves once you level up, but most of it are heat actions. Yakuza 4 has four different playable characters, and each one feels unique. So if you love the gameplay, you should definitely pick up Y4 afterwards.



Gonna tag this for later, I've seen you play Y3 just now , and was a bit surprised.



Could somebody make a list of points about what's similar to Shenmue and what is not in this game?
I always read "seen as the real successor to Shenmue by fans" blabla but then they also say it's very different. Which is weird.
Thanks.



so... I was rewared 2 trophies, Path of the warrior and Key finder without meeting the requirements
