Never played a Yakuza game before but decided to get this since it was only 25$ on amazon.
Now I know there's already a thread about this but is it OK if I play this one first and then zero?
go for it!

I want to. It's just that I missed out on a sale and now it's $59.99 everywhere and I don't even know when I'll get to either (I just wanted to play intro of Kiwami) so I can probably wait for it to go on sale again. Even just $40 and I'll order it.At the end of the day, it's still your call. It's just that I've played all of them and if you want my opinion, it's better for any newcomer to start with Zero.
Just finished chapter 1. Weird how seemingly important Yumi is to Kiryu and Nishiki yet she was nowhere to be seen in 0. That bothers me.
That was by far the weirdest omission in 0 :/ I think they mention her literally once in the story.
Yakuza 0 -> Kiwami would be the ideal way to start the series (since both stories would feel stronger that way), but It's okay to start with Kiwami as well.I want to.

I might be mistaken on that, but Yumi is younger than both Kiryu and Nishiki and by the time Y0 happens, she's still in the orphanage. I also remember that they mention her in Y0 once too, but I don't remember when that was.
There's basically two ways I'd recommend people to start the series now:Yakuza 0 -> Kiwami would be the ideal way to start the series (since both stories would feel stronger that way), but It's okay to start with Kiwami as well.
Just don't forget to get Yakuza 0 whenever you have the chance.
There's basically two ways I'd recommend people to start the series now:
Y3 (KInda optional, slow start and while I really like it it might not get people. Nothing in it really has any bearing on things in the other games other than establishing Kiryu's orphanage)->Y4->Y5->0->Kiwami, which is the natural progression.
Or 0 and Kiwami now and go through the PS3 games as time/money allows if you plan to play Yakuza 6, since it's putting the cap on the Kiryu saga and it's a direct sequel to 5.

Anyway really enjoying this so far, put about an hour and a half in.
I can't get any ultimate heat moves to proc. I'm doing thefight now, and he's gone into the rechargey state twice now. Both times the aura was purple, and both times I was in rush with full heat, but I just didn't get the prompt. I tried lock on and without, and I don't know what's going onfirst shimano
Where do you go to trade CP? I feel like I've looked everywhere.
It'll be fine either way.
Yakuza fans are recommending 0 over 1 to new players though.
0 is more accessible, larger and more impressive as a first title for newcomers. As well, the remake of 1 has been retconned to make it into more of a sequel to 0
Yes.
go for it!
To the clown (Bob) at the end of the street.
I found him in the first chapter but he's not there anymore. I'm on Chapter 6 if that helps.
Oh... not there yet myself, sorry!

Just got my hands on this, quick questions, 1) is there any miss able trophies/hard fail-able sidequests like previous games and 2) if so is there any equivalent khh guide like from Zero
Seriously. I don't understand how she was absent from Zero. This is super jarring for someone like me who started the series with Zero.
which one released first on Japan, Kiwami or 0?
I want to play the one released first so that I would feel the upgrades of the next game like a natural sequel.
This was my only issue with 0 - felt like she was just put away for no good reason honestly considering they actually mention the Orphanage enough times. Really bizarre and this is coming from a fan since the PS2 days.
Beat Yakuza 0 on hard, but I am getting already destroyed in the stardust club right now haha. Guess I should have tried to get some healing items.
How many more times am I going to by Yakuza 1? That is the question!
Probably 2 more when I get the HD remaster for PS3 and Wii U next time I'm in Japan!
Don't have time to start it today but I'll definitely start on it tomorrow. Looking forward to taking a trip back down memory lane.
How do I equip weapons? Or rather draw them in fights, I already have it equipped.
Yakuza 0 -> Kiwami would be the ideal way to start the series (since both stories would feel stronger that way), but It's okay to start with Kiwami as well.

So it wasn't just me, huh? lol
Yeah, the hard difficulty is actually hard this time.
Nice signed Y1!
Very envious
Thanks! Had to wait until the end of Tokyo Game Show to approach Nagoshi and he kindly signed it for me. Sadly it never crossed my mind to take a photo with him, I was a bit star struck at that point!
Yeah, but if Kiwami is the only thing that they can get at the moment, then there is nothing else that can be done.Its not a bad way to start the series for sure but you will also miss out on some of the fun of the nods to Yakuza 1 and 2 that are in Yakuza 0.
It's been years since I last played Y3 so I can't really compare. But it is pretty difficult. Zero was like a cakewalk compared to this.Can compare to Y3 ? If yes F Horizon I jump direct to this game !
