Maybe try mixing up when you dodge? With Kiryu in Rush style, I can pretty much destroy anyone by doing Square Square Square, X+(left/right), Square Square Square, rinse and repeat. They usually can't recover. Or if you're just fighting one dude, hold R1 to lock on them as you X, X, X around him until you're behind him and can wail away. Dodging with multiple enemies can be more tricky, but what tends to work for me is quickstepping to the outside of the pile, take on one dude, then quickstep away if they try to surround you again. Also changing directions of your punches can be effective at keeping multiple people at bay (i.e. throwing a couple punches at enemy A, then changing direction as you throw the third punch so it'll hit the guy behind you).
Sometimes I get tired of dodging though and just use Beast style for clobberin' time.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
I gotta say that Kiryu's Rush style, while it starts out great, becomes less and less useful until
I never did anything past the second training though so maybe I missed some heat moves.
the fifth fight with Kuze, when it easily becomes the most useful style as you constantly bob and weave between each other's attacks.

I think the key to the fighting staying fresh is 1) unlocking new skills, but also switching styles in the middle of combat as the situation changes. Using the shirt that allows quick-switching of styles makes this much easier. Like I'll often start off in Rush style until I build up heat, switch to Brawler and do a heat move, then switch back. Or switch into Beast to grab an object without being knocked down. I think there's room to do more complicated multi-style combos, but I'm not there yet. I do wish the quick-switching was truly instantaneous, but it's not too bad.
I like the fact that there's so many heat moves, I'm still discovering new ones. Last night I ended up dragging around a guy by his ankles in Beast mode somehow and then threw him at his buddies.

I did and Marina scolded me for wasting so much money and throws it all away
On another note, I unlocked the Nao video despite not actually meeting her this way.

drive by shoot out is really annoying, especially considering shooting at the cars doesn't do shit and if you get to the helicopter part and you die you have to start from the beginning again, wtf

Actually having trouble with that move too. But I don't think you are supposed to quickstep.

Damn, well that answers that. I half-expected it to unlock a new money game.
Hm, well I remember early on in the thread someone said one of the moves was different than the instructions said, like Circle instead of Triangle. I'll try it tonight.

THIS DRIVEBY MISSION IS SO FUCKING ANNOYING
shoot the big targets. Unload every bullet once the marker is on a target and reload between each enemy wave.
EDIT: Instead of taking out every enemy, you can kill the driver.

thanks lol, I actually just got through it rather quick and now I finished chapter 13.
I always got the sense that Kiryu was an unintended ladies man,
so it would've been nice if Makimoro started coming onto Kiryu...although she is blind so it's not like she knew what he looked like but his personality and voice should've been enough to turn her on.
in fact I feel like sleeping with him would probably physically, mentally, maybe even emotionally make her feel a lot better.

Cheers! I've maxed out Pocket Racer now, I realised I didn't have to keep progressing just keep entering races but I plan on getting round to winning them anyway.

Yea, that was the oddest thing to not have Yumi appear at all, as you mentioned Kazama made an appearance, why not her? Though I will agree that Kazama should have had more to say, if at least through flashbacks.
that's what ended up happening with me last night. I was basically your avatar -->
and I ended up playing through finishing chapter 9, and started and finished chapter 10 before calling it a fucking night.
Hehe, understand that completely. Weekend is nearly here. Time for a monster session.

yeah, we're getting more positive signs than ever that sega's on board with the series, can't say enough how fantastic that is given the darkness that we had post Dead Souls, thinking the series was effectively over for us

damn, guess the wrong gal once in "the sexy hookup" substory and now i can't ever find her again, no matter which package i pick at the telephone club =/
lucebuce12
Member
Just keep at it, she'll show up again.
No idea where to find those tracks, maybe youtube will have them. But this reminded me, it's pretty funny when there is an emotional ending to a substory and the sad 80s keyboard plays and all of a sudden the 'substory end' bass solo happens. Lol
IrishNinja
Member
does it matter which package you buy? one guide says it does but i'm not seeing a pattern
wish i could tell from early on in the call, but fuck it, if it's not her this next time i'm done, just gonna chalk it up to other unfinished things i suck at, like RC cars & disco
No packages don't matter, it's just, bikini color, voice, and afterwards name are pretty much the only real indicators
eyeball_kid
Member
Yeah, bikini color is really the only thing that helped me narrow it down. I could never tell the voices apart on the green bikini women.
Kiryu's thug is the most OP in the game huehuehuehue, but that's at end game, I also loooooove mid-endgame beast style. That said, Majima's Dancer style is insane aoe clear from level 1.

Real Estate mini game would be 5x better if I could manage them from the save points instead of having to go back every time

Got Sunshine to S-Rank as well as my 1st Plat Hostess maxed out yesterday - only Venus & Moon left, i really need to move on, still at Chapter 7...
Does anyone have a list of all of the miss-able stuff (like equipment)? I just got through what I thought would be my final playthrough (in Legend) and now I find out that I have to do it at least one more time just to get the Charismatic Autobiography, which I apparently missed out on by answering correctly in a substory (and so was rewarded with a shirt you can just get as many as you want of later), lol.
So, anyway, I'm trying to make sure I don't miss anything else like that in my next playthrough so that I can just chill in Premium Adventure and bang my head against Mahjong and Shogi without having to worry about playing it a 4th time.

go for it! completed the club stuff while still in chapter 7, & it was worth it, cuz the game shortly thereafter really starts rollin', & i was glad i could just hop on & ride it out

What's the max level for hostesses? Also do you know the max number of fans you can get from an area?
lucebuce12
Member
I believe it's 40 though I might be a tad off.
And I don't think there is a limit to the number of fans. You should stop once you've completed all the trainings, and beaten all the clubs because there's literally no reason to keep doing the mode anymore.
Vindicator
Member
Max lvl is 40, no idea about fans, 13k is my max in Jupiter area.
Die Squirrel Die
Member
So there's no max fans. I was going to try and exhaust each area before targeting the next so I'm still on Mars, even though I've beaten the owner. I've gotten over 15k fans just from Mars, but if there's no limit I guess I can move on and start taking over the other regions.
40 is max for platinum hostesses, 30 for others.

That "installing" scene from ps3 unlocks when you beat the game by the way.
Also, finally beat the hostess club stuff. phew!

I was slightly hoping they got some Chinese-speaking voice actors to voice the Chinese scenes, hearing someone who clearly can't speak the language mess up all the intonations and pronunciations really irked me.
I was actually slightly relieved in that one scene when Oda told Chen to speak Japanese in Kiryu's presence or when Makoto said she forgot the language so I don't have to listen to badly spoken Chinese. Tachibana's one line in Chinese is delivered surprisingly decently tho.

You'd think with how much priority they've placed on the Asian Markets now, they'd make it more of a priority. Oh well, at least Tanimura in 4 sounded good (not that I understand Chinese anyway).
Some of the english in Yakuza 3 was absolutely hilarious.

fixed.
for VF all the Chinese characters speak Japanese, and considering the English VA, that might be for the best :X

the old man who you're supposed to help by the bowling alley tells you to wait while he cleans the office. The game tells you to wander around but nothing happened yet and I lost the house.
