Very few games have almost moved me to tears. This is just..... unreal.
Yeah, it's incredibly annoying but it is at least a little bit quicker than it was on the PS3 games. I ended up almost never saving in the earlier games because of how annoyingly long it took. Was kind of hoping that would change with this title, but it's a minor issue in the end to an otherwise fantastic game.

I honestly have no idea, it's been like this in every Yakuza game from the PS3 onwards. I can't imagine how much time I must have wasted waiting for two progress bars to fill up on every save

Doesn't build up heat.
Well that stinks lol. The heat moves are like the best part of combat

Tips on making a lot of cash to get the media king's locations? I hate waiting for my location's payout to get like 1 place each time.

Get the upgrades at the CP exchange Shrine so that the payout happens as fast as possible.

Who cried at least once throughout the story?

I'll admit to it.
which is probably why all of Majima's upgrades are relative cheaper in comparison to Kiryu, that and why
the money transfer exists.
You get 1 billion yen for each club you take down and 10 billion yen once you take every clubs down.
Oh yeah, also the properties are cheaper as well.
Well that's good to know, at least there are good payoffs for that stuff.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
That was a good scene
but I absolutely lost it when Majima and Kiryu come face to face, you get the Yakuza 1 music and Majima's KIRYUUU CHANNNNN.
SO HYPE.
I have to respect the fact that they did the entire game and not have the two protagonists meet each other. Worst case scenario would be a Halo 5 like deal where they'd have just met for a one-time fight and whichever player you were controlling at that time would have 'won' in the story. Which is why them coming face to face right at the end and even Kiryu's cheeky smile at seeing Majima got me pumped for Kiwami.

Yeah, this was the one thing I expected to happen in the game (heck, it happens every game almost) and yet they managed to write a compelling story where
while the stories intertwined, the characters never actually met each other. I was expecting a confrontation then team up at the end of the game, I'm kinda glad that didn't happen and instead both characters got great endings to their respective story arcs
I'm about halfway in and was already a mess. I look forward to more crying.

I'm only halfway through but the scene at the end of chapter 6 made me tear up a little. The guy voicing Nishiki is fantastic in that scene.
Do weapons in the same class do the same damage for their heat move regardless of what the individual damage for each weapon is?
So for example, if i have two poles where 1 does 28 damage and the other does 300, Is the damage from the heat move the same from both or will it scale? I feel like it's the former

I tried Shakedown once with Majima and he was like One Punch Man. First and last time I ever bother with that guy. I know you can make tons of money with him, but not worth losing all your cash.
it's so easy with majima. abuse heat items + melee weapon + heat attacks

Just beat it, that was absolutely amazing. Do the other yakuza games have stories and pacing as good as this?
Also the outfits you get after finishing the story are too fucking good, i wish you could wear them earlier.

Actually, once you get comfortable beating him it is worth losing to him as the next time you see him after he takes your money, he'll have about 1.5x whatever he took from you. He's basically all profit with not much risk
Even if you keep losing to him multiple times in a row, he'll just keep taking your money and adding it to whatever he already has. He's basically a walking ATM that never runs out of money.

I never use weapons really, still trying to learn each style. I'm sure there's ways to cheese Shakedown, but for now I'll just try to make money with my business skills.

you have unlock it at the CP shrine but
it's gated with such a high cost that it practically means it's meant for new game +

From my memory it was something like: Super Soft Tyres, Balance Frame Plus, Hi Torque V2.0, Gears i forget, High Cap Battery.
I race on the track to find a time to beat then i tend to spend time in the Test Track tweaking the setup until i'm close and then race again. If i win then i take the challenge. I have never needed to use boost to win a race so far. I'm on the last few races now and need to progress the story as parts get expensive quick!
I spent a few hours only doing races, substories and challenges and after a while you do get an idea of needs tweaking on the car and when a component is holding you back. Soft Tyre upgrades are the first i go for if i can afford them
You can buy parts in Don Quixote and there's a substory that gives you early access to some nice parts also.
Thanks, your setup worked!

Got it in the mail today and got a quick hour into the game.
Oh boy, as an old Shenmue 2 fanboy I am very excited to get into this game/series.

The cabaret is 100% inferior to real estate especially when you consider the level of involvement. Kiryu can go out and finish substories, make friends, hook up at telephone clubs, eat at restaurants, buy more real estate, and generally fill out the completion list while collecting money. Majima has to watch his shit like a hawk to collect peanuts. At least it's fun though.
I suppose the good part is that the bonuses for winning Majima's club battles is enough to purchase all the next area's properties and then some.

Well, I think this is a legitimate point of criticism. RE7 had the same issues. Seriously, it's 2017. When you hit a phonebooth you should get two options:
a) Quicksave = overwrites most recent save in the background without launching the PS4 save menu + the ominous "System Data"
b) Save = launch save menu
Don't get me wring, I adore this game. But saving is a PITA, so I avoided it as often as possible.
Nah he's not going to challenge you again, the challenge is insignificant. You can can still gain 100% of the territory without having to beat him in the arcade

God damn is buying up and upgrading properties fun!
As soon as i was given the option to do so that basically all i have been doing, baring a few side quests that came along the way.
I have managed to get 100% on the first three areas, beating their leaders and upgrading all properties to S grade and am working towards the gambling kings area now (about 37% owned).
I didnt plan to spend so much time on it since i though 'i will just get enough money to upgrade some fighting styles' but instead have spent billions just buying and upgrading my empire and only a few hundred million on fighting style upgrades.
