@nessisonett I’ve been planning to play it on PS5 with the Plus Collection, so I’ll probably have time to at least squeeze in 3 and 4 before that day comes. Also hearing they a 4 Remake is forthcoming makes me want to get the original version played fairly soon for comparison purposes.
You already made it past when I jumped off @Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I did hear the cabaret club was a better mini game than the real estate one, which was probably the point that lulled me away.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
One of the games I bought with my ps5 is the ps4 version of Yakuza like a dragon but I have yet to play it (there's a few games ahead in the queue and I will probably wait till the ps5 version comes out play with the free upgrade)
@RogerRoger yeah the grindy element is what I think over all let it down by time I got to the later chapters I was just rushing through. Plus the constant distraction of trying to always upgrade your Kingdom started out fun at first but then became a nuisance by the end.
It wasn't very challenging either to be honest most bosses I fought late on where always 5 or 6 levels higher than me but only once did I die and that was my own fault for not restocking health potions.
If your a big jrpg/anime fan then I would say give it a go but if not then you might get burnt out like myself
@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Cabaret Club is incredibly addictive and quite the time sink. But if you want to get all sub stories finished then you need to spend quite a bit of time with it to get all of the ones that the specific hostesses unlock. The real estate one is fine but it a very good way of making serious money.
@Pditty1980 Like a Dragon is a bit separate from the rest of the series as it features a different protagonist. I think the main series is great as it is a real blend of combat, sort of action RPG elements, and with an utterly ridiculous array of things that you can do in the game. The stories and characters are top notch, as long as you don't mind a healthy dose of silliness alongside the serious parts of the game.
Hitman 3, I've completed the main story. As Hitman has a large focus on replaying levels to attempt them in different ways, I'm going to be playing this for quite a while yet. Overall, it's a solid final entry for the trilogy.
One problem with it is that it's causing me to accidentally throw grenades in Cyberpunk 2077. Agent 47's instincts, which highlights things of importance, is activated with the R1 button. However, the similar feature in Cyberpunk 2077 uses the L1 button. R1 throws grenades in Cyberpunk 2077. So I keep getting those buttons muddled up.
After finishing and getting the platinum trophy for the Nonary games (loved the stories).
I've now moved on to atelier Ryza 2 with a bit of hitman 3 in VR
once I'm done with them though, I fully intend to start zero time dilemma.
Despite buying the likes of Hitman 3 I've returned to Resident Evil 4. I haven't played through it in quite a few years but its crazy how good this game still is. I struggled with the controls initially but having moved the aiming to the left stick its felt much more natural. Up to chapter 4 now
Older than I care to remember but have been gaming since owning a wooden Atari 2600 and played pretty much everything inbetween.
I'm about 15 hours into Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor and am loving it! I played a bit of it when it first released on PS4 but I must've not paid too much attention to the tutorial because I kept dying repeatedly once the game really started. It turned me off of the game at the time but I decided to give it another go. Now I'm here at work on Monday wishing I was in Mordor instead. Can't wait to get back home to play some more!
@carlos82 Despite having a Cube growing up, I never did get round to Resi 4 until a few years ago and was blown away by how well it had aged. The aiming’s a little odd but it only serves to enhance the tension. I also somehow managed to beat the game without finding the scope for the Regenerators which was a massive annoyance 😅
@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy interesting to read your thoughts on yakuza0! I started playing 0 because the rest of them got added to game pass and I wanted to see what all the fuss is about.
It started off....boring. like I had no idea what was going on in the first few hours but someone encouraged me to stick with it...so I did and now my save file is at 74 hours 😂
I think I agree that majima I'd (certainly initially) way more interesting but as I've played more, I have come to love Kiryu's lunkheadedness!
I agree that the real estate thing was tedious. Most of that 74 hours is just me running the game.in the background while I do other stuff, just turning around to press the buttons every ten minutes or so. I just wanted to get a load of money to transfer to majima later in the game (my kiryu is mostly upgraded now).
I didn't understand club Czar at all initially but I get it now and it's a bit more enjoyable now I know what I'm doing.
It's weird, I think the game is quite good but still probably a bit overrated. I do think it would be better if it was shorter. Like it's a good game, but not good enough to sink 100+hours into - hopefully I finish it before then 😅
The substories are definitely what make this game interesting to begin with, which in turn makes the main story more interesting if that makes sense. Like seeing the softer and funnier side of these characters, allows me to get more invested in the main storyline.
I've done most of the sub stories as kiryu, the ones I'm never going to finish are the third dance one and possibly 2 of the ability upgrade side stories. I'm sure there's a few other I'm missing, maybe a date from the telephone club?
I think similarly with majima, I don't think I'm going to bother with the dance club ones but I think I will finish club Czar now I know what it's all about! I think there's some sub stories attached to Mr shakedown too who I haven't been brave enough to fight!
Yeah I kind of want to finish it and move on now so I'm trying to be a bit picky about what I want to spend a lot of time doing and what I don't!
@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I think it's the only game to have that side story. It's probably the only significant mis-step in Zero as it isn't really fun at all. Cabaret club comes back in a few games (although in a slightly rubbish way in some) and Pocket Racer also returns in Kiwami.
@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I think it hooked me after the first Kuze fight when you kind of saw how the others treated him after he was knocked down a peg or 2. Flawed characters are always a bit more interesting than indomitable forces!
I think the translation is really funny. All the characters talk like geezers with an educated vocabulary. I think it's how I must seem to my colleagues at work sometimes.
I initially thought I would just play the story but after the first couple of chapters I was determined to do the side missions which really sealed the deal for me. I think my favourite character so far as been Mr. Libido! 😂
Edit: oh yeah I forgot to mention that aparrently Mr shakedown can act as a way to get 1.5x your money when you lose to him and get it back when he's walking around on a good day but I think you need to upgrade him with CP. Unfortunately I've spent most of my CP on the real estate/club Czar and getting ultimate dash for both characters!
Another thing I forgot to say is that sometimes the interactions between characters remind me of machining style animation. The way the camera shakes when somebody's angry or shocked as well as the weird movements people make, especially the "unwanted attention" animation that the Obatarian and a couple of Kiryu's dates make
@nessisonett just done that part today, that must have been fun without the scope 😂. Beaten Krauser as well so should finish it off in the morning and then onto the extra content
