Can't make a Sega game without getting those Miku dollars. They need it.
While I'm happy about the idol and Miku stuff, the Yakuza team should have created a skip feature to simply watch the cutscenes for people who did not want to touch Haruka scenes.
I need more Miku plushies for my car. One is not enough.
I'll wait to be disappointed until post E3. This feels like the Yakuza 3 situation all over again...

While I've seen Haruka's gameplay and am fine with it...
...The idea of dancing IN ORDER TO beat up punks would've been even better, I think.
hey its been a while
i know it hasn't, but being shut out of the internet for 2+ days made it feel like forever
p4 arena FINALLY arrived, and i've gotta say i'm really enjoying it! i feel right at home playing this game, and i really enjoy yu and aigis's moveset. as for the main story... i've only played a bit of yu's story so far. having yu talk was a shock at first, but i quickly got used to it. i love how he narrates the story from his perspective (i love the idea of seeing his complete point of view on characters and events... some of descriptions are on the mark).
so yeah, overall i'm enjoying the game and i guess i can't wait to play you guys?
:]
Nope.
If you like it, that's fine, but it's absolutely not what I wanted to see in Yakuza, and not something I'd ever be able to play.
Some Persona 3 hacks.

Don't watch that one unless you haven't beaten P3, kinda spoilerish.
Or watch if you want to, don't say I didn't warn you.
Here's a coule that aren't spoilerish.
Yu as the p3 protagonist!
Playable Yukari

Please tell me how one mode out of a zillion game modes in a series know for it is so offensive that you won't play the whole game without sounding like a crazy person.
Because this isn't optional, and is much more significant.
When I play the Yakuza games, I play through the story and that's it. I don't do karaoke or golf or ping pong or any of the other little minigames in there. If they want to add dance battles and make it optional, that's sound. Making it a part of the story was a terrible idea though. It means that I wouldn't be able to play through the game how I wanted to.

It's okay for any other game, but Yakuza's a game that's supposed to be about manly men doing manly things, so an idol dance battle is the devil.
And Dantis, you are missing half the fun of a Yakuza game if that's all you do. If not most of it.
Damn dude, you're missing out. All those mini-games are what make Yakuza's Kamurocho come alive. :|
I mean, you say this, but I'd complain just as much about adding idol stuff into any games that I'm a fan of. Not just Yakuza. I agree about the latter part though. I absolutely see Yakuza as a game about manly men doing manly things.
I enjoy it as it is, and the stories are long enough on their own that they warrant the purchase. I really enjoy the stories, combat and the music. What more do I need?
The answer is not dance battles.
"This isn't Burger King; You can't always have it your way."
Missing out on an experience you'd likely enjoy 90% of because of a handful of less than pleasing scenes is a little silly, my man.

Would you not play Persona 5 if it had an idol dance battle?
It sure is.
Well, I dunno if I'd call three hours of content 'a handful of scenes'.
I literally don't want to even imagine it. I suppose it would depend heavily on the context and execution. If a fifth of the game was idol dance battles, it would heavily affect how I felt about the game.
I dream about playing this everyday. iDOLM@STER: Rise Edition. I mean, it's not like Rie Kugimiya hasn't voiced one before.
Well, relative to Yakuza. Aren't the games typically like 30 hours long?
Would buy.
Would (still) attend.
The previous ones were like fifteen hours. It's a pretty significant chunk of it.
I literally don't think I'd be able to play through it.
For those of you listening to the podcast but ignoring the thread(shame on you), here's some proof. Number 5:
Persona music live 2013. Make it happen index.
And that's not counting iPhone plays, which is where the most music listening happens.

Has the Persona 3 Portable Official fan book been translated yet?
Armada totally sounds like Ron Swanson from parcs and recs.

Sad fact of the day: I am actually in Ottawa right now but too busy to be able to hang out :'/
I'll totally crush you tomorrow in P4A, though!
Oh my god.
I have been developing the Armada Pyramid of Greatness for years. Its a perfectly calibrated recipe for maximum personal achievement. Categories include: Podcasting, Gods way of determining who is charming, and who is dumb. Crying, acceptable at funerals and the announcement of P5. Chie. GAF. Property rights. Steak, for referencing only, not to eat. Steak is practically a vegetable.
I can't imagine who I sound like.

I sound like suck. Or bland, depending on what day it is.
Look forward to hearing that ramble on for an hour in two weeks -_-;
If you don't believe in yourself, Dantis. Then believe in me who believes in you. You can do it! ;-D
I'll have to give this a listen. I love anime-focus podcasts, well episode in this case.
P4:Arena Talk, I believe.
P4: Arena should probably be 2 parts. One to discuss the plot and story of the game and just our general feelings on it.
The other being a talk with a fellow named Dacidbro, one of the top competitive P4: Arena players in North America to talk about the P4: Arena competitive scene. Armada is the brains behind that one, looking forward to it.

and yeah, bring it!
I burst out laughing, my parents think i'm sort of psycho hahaha.
BTW, I just started Yosuke's story. It seems like each character narrates their own story... this has the potential to seriously impress me. For example, we got to see Yosuke's room and I noticed that Yosuke finally got Yukiko's number, huzzah.
EDIT: Yosuke finally really ramifications of having your shadow appear in front of everyone. Priceless.
EDIT2: "Knowing me, I'll accidentally call him that myself...! I know i'll at least say he has a sister complex... I won't be able to help myself." Glad you realize you're a dick buddy
EDIT3: I HAVEN'T DISCARDED IT! I HAVEN'T DISCARDED IT, YOU HEAR ME? ~ someone needs to set up a P4A quote database hahaha
Like we needed more evidence to know that Yosuke is the worst character.
Man, not just any Nickelback album, but one of their worst too.
