Bloody hell, I’d forgotten quite how narrative-heavy these Yakuza games are. I’ve only been logged in a little over an hour and it already feels like I’ve seen as many cut-scenes as was in Metal Gear Solid 4! 🤣
Well… that first Ryuji Goda fight (I say first as I assume I’ll be fighting him again) is tough! Must’ve failed about 4 or 5 times before I finally beat him 😥.
I think that I’m missing something with the Heat mechanic as when I was restarting after defeat, the onscreen message stated defeat your enemies by pressing R2 to access Extreme Heat Mode. So I tried this but nothing happened, even though I had a full Heat bar. Anyone of the many Yakuza-stans on here help a brother out? 😅
So just finished up my first Yakuza Kiwami 2 sesh and I am quite enjoying it fair play. I know this is sacrilege but I’m already starting to check-out of the story though… there’s just so god-damned much Japanese-dialogue and I don’t play video games to spend at least 50% of my game-time reading! The combat is fun though, the characters entertaining and I love the dragon engine… the facial-modelling is brilliant.
The missus is away with work and I’m on leave, so gonna stay up and watch the Game Awards while trying to get the Haruka Casino requests done on Kiwami 2.

Good show, I’m awake so I might watch the first hour or so.
I wasn’t going to as fool me once shame on you, well it looks like Geoff is gonna fool me ten times.
BUT it really is the lack of a Sony show plus talk of a PS exclusive and another multi platform release plus the It Takes Two studio head that has twisted my arm. Plus of course 2025 is looking pretty good.
PS. Have you mastered Mahjong yet? When you do then I will send you a shareplay invite when I’m next required to be a grand master at that game.
@CaptD I haven’t mate, I got the Mahjong done in the original… and that’s supposed to be more difficult than what is required in 2 but I’ve forgotten pretty much everything.
I even though I watched a video on how to play it but got my arse handed to me during my first effort and concluded that I needed to go back to the drawing board. I’ll work it out though
Recently gotten back into Dead or Alive 5 Last Round. I've had that game since it was released 10 years ago, played the heck out of it but around 2021 or so stopped for a bit. Since playing it again, I still think it holds up well. Prefer it to most modern fighters outside of Street Fighter 6 and Tekken 8.
Just got the mahjong and the karaoke done-and-dusted on Yakuza Kiwami 2… that’s basically the plat tbh, just have to go through the motions now. It’ll be a real pleasant final-lap though, knowing those two mini-games are behind me 😅.
@BeyondKnight congrats dude, I love those less-AC-style AC games (Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla). Pure AC fans tend to hate them but I think they’re great!
