Happy with the English VAs.
SEGA did a great job with Binary Domain, Lost Paradise, and this game.

Is it just me or did they change the mini-map? It's really counterintuitive, and I don't remember it being like this in Kiwami 1&2 and 6...
Beautiful OT
Currently at chapter 5, 14 hours in and I'm enjoying every moment. The tailing was fun at the beginning but after the 3rd-4th time it became very boring
Story is solid, intense from the beginning. Build up pace is great! Yakuza team really should be credited and praised when it comes to story-telling

While I'm enjoying all the main quest and side cases, I'm not really feeling some of the gameplay changes. I'm already bored with tailing, the damage system doesn't realy seem to add anything besides wasting your time and the friendships aren't the most intuitive in terms of triggering progress. Good game otherwise.
Won't need to take pictures of them just have your drone home in on them and you are golden.
Question about one of the trophies:
There's a trophy for completing the game on Legend difficulty. I assume this would involve starting on Legend and not adjusting the difficulty at all during the game (since it seemingly can be adjusted at any time mid-game)? Does the trophy just involve completing the story missions, or 100% completion of all side activities etc?
If it's like the last games then it just means playing through the game start to finish in that mode, you don't need to do the side quests. Pretty sure you can't change out of Legend difficulty once selected, either.
went back to finish the japanese version since it's out in english now lol and man I have no clue what rgg studio was thinking with the tailing shit. it's so fucking boring and they're usually so good at making fun mechanics out of everything. there's a shitload of it too and it's all the same.
also i feel like this game is somehow even worse at the way it treats its female characters compared to the yakuza games.

No. No content is missable aside from trophies - so the only stuff you can miss are the cat finding trophy, and plot specific trophies every other chapter or so. Everything else can be done at any time.
That's odd because I have 2 side cases that say cannot progress or something along the line ) : .
Glad the thread worked out in the end! I got the brilliant idea to start the game at 2AM last night but only played the first two tutorial missions. I also started walking around in the first person camera to see what's new in Kamurocho since Y6. I also bought some decorations for the office and cat food because why not?
The combat feels faster than 6's combat (my point of reference as I haven't checked out YK2) but it's a tad bit unresponsive after coming from Y0. I'm playing on a base PS4 Slim and there are some graphical hitches like flickering shadows in the prologue mission. I'm not fussy about visuals/framerate but that's noticeable. I'm sure it looks better on a PS4 Pro. I'm playing it in Japanese with English subs on hard.
One of the things that are annoying about the RGGS games is that most mini-games/activities are gated initially so I'll have to progress. But I'm digging the slick UI presentation. I do wish there was a bio tab of who's who because the game introduces characters way too quickly with some context. I also find it a bit odd that hangout activities aren't voiced but that's minor nitpicking. Again, this only the first 15 minutes of the game or so plus some exploration.

Yes is the answer in my limited time. There's plenty of outfits.
I started playing today and I'm way into it so far, which I expected since I usually like detective stuff. They do just enough to make it feel different from Yakuza which is nice as well. I've found myself just stopping and looking at stuff in Kamurocho which I never really did before. I'm not quite sure what it is but I feel more grounded in the world compared to previous games. I stopped after the first proper boss fight where they introduce mortal blows so looking forward to playing more later.
The English dub is great as well. It was slightly weird hearing English at first since I've gotten used to not having it in these games at this point but the cast so far have all been great.

Might be the wrong time of day, might be because of the part of the story your on. Trust me, you can't miss side quests. Just do other stuff and check back later.
The English dub I agree is actually very well done. Props to Greg Chun especially. He is great as Yagami.
How the hell do you activate the combo finisher heat actions? The ones that read press triangle while holding r1 after a combo?
There's all the xp tied to the rewards for eating each individual food item so it's still worth it.
Yeah that was the point where I really got into the story, it also helps that chapter 5 starts pulling everything together.
Found it, thanks, gonna switch to the dub for a bit just to see how it is
I think 5k is a really steep investment and I'm not having trouble eating after every fight to finish off restaurant menus.
The humor in this game is as strong as ever. I'm really enjoying it, going through some tough family times and every time I play the game gets at least one heartfelt smile or laugh from me
End of Chapter 4 spoilers
Seems like story is finally picking up.
Holy shit at that twist at the end. The moment the phone started ringing in the office I was sure he was dead and hidden there but then you get the "This is Shintani" part and think he is alive right before the body crashes to the ground. So intense.
Seems like story is finally picking up.
As mentioned earlier in the thread, trophies are not available during the early access for digital pre-orders. They will start working when the game comes out on Tuesday.
Oooooh. Okay, that makes sense. I forgot this was an early release.
The voice actor for Kaito is great, so much so I looked him up. It's Crispin Freeman and I couldn't believe he's 47 years old, looks almost half that.
Does it get harder later on? Maybe picked 10 locks so far and they all were super easy and fast to unlock.
That scene was absolutely insane!!!! And yeah, it felt like there had been no progress in the story for a while and suddenly with Shintani it's picked up steam again.
This happened to me too during chapter 4, but progress further in the story and she'll show up again!
