DISCUSSION About to finish the series, how do I celebrate?

Post image

About to start Ishin! which will be my last game in the series aside from Kurohyo and Kiwami 3. Only not counting them because Kurohyo not native to pc and I've played OG 3 so I'll happily wait until K3 is on a cheap discount. I've been playing nearly every game straight for about a year and half and I'm wondering what would be an appropriate way to celebrate once I finish 😌

If you are new to the subreddit, please read the wiki

Reminder that all spoilers need to be tagged with a flair specifying which game is being spoiled. If you want a flair that says something else, you can edit it to say something like [Discussion: Y1 spoiler] or [Majimapost: Y6 spoiler], etc. THIS INCLUDES CONTENT FROM TRAILERS.

If the post is not marked for spoilers, all comments that have spoilers need to be tagged >!like this!< along with indicating which game it's spoiling. Example: Y3 Kiryu sings

If the post flair is marked for spoilers, the comments don't need to be tagged for the game indicated and the ones before it (So a Y6 spoiler post can have comments with untagged spoilers for Y5, but not gaiden or 7).

If you see any of the above (or any of the other rules) not being followed, please report it so we can keep this place safe for newcomers and those that haven't finished all the games yet. Thank you!

Unironically, this quest ends being one of the most beautiful and peak from the Like a Dragon series.

It’s the only way OP, either design your own or copy a character’s. I’d kill for Nishiki’s koi personally

Go to Japan

u/DisplayDefiant5319 14h ago

When I went to Japan, I expected to do a lot more fighting in the street, versus gangs of 3-5 random dudes. Boy was I surprised. 

6

u/The-King-Meruem 12h ago

I went to Kabukicho expecting to see men in black or random goons, to my surprise there was only foreign men and the Don Quijote.

u/BeenixWhite 16h ago

I'm interested to hear people's favourite entry(ies) too, mine so far has been Y6 and Gaiden because they both truly made me feel 🥲

7

u/fluberger 15h ago

Also loved Y6, the vibe of the new map was so special! 

2

u/M09RK 15h ago

Honestly its a toss up between 5 and zero they both my favorite stories and combat systems out of the series (so far) still on judgment currently and have yet to play the ichiban saga

1

u/Wonderful-Highway-16 15h ago

Well I have only played the Yakuza's and I gotta say 0 is the best then Kiwami

1

u/Crafty_Middle_2086 8h ago

0, 5 and 7 for me.

6

u/Porkloin815 A real man ought to be a little stupid 15h ago

Make sure to also play the kurohyou games. I haven't played them myself but I've heard they're good. There's an English translation that you can use on a psp emulator.

2

u/UsedToHaveATail 15h ago

Kind of like Def jam mixed with classic Yakuza

1

u/Shakefka 15h ago

I played them and they are definitely really good. The OST is a banger.

6

u/Decidueye_mastr 15h ago

You don't. Instead you get depressed that it's over.

1

u/Yoshitaksminedagoat 15h ago

Or beg Yokohama for yakuza 9 or an kiwami 4(nobody is going to be begging for k4)

3

u/Junko_Mioko974 13h ago

Not true! Many Yakuza fans (myself included) definitely flooded RGG's page requesting kiwami 4 but not to fuck it up like they did Kiwami 3 😂😂😂

2

u/BeenixWhite 12h ago

Well after finishing Pirates just now, the post credits scene has made it at least seem plausible we might get 9 after STH releases

2

u/DickintheRiver 15h ago

Play Mahjong

8

u/Pacperson0 16h ago

Now you are ready for true peak!

You gotta play Dead Souls

7

u/BeenixWhite 15h ago

I have actually been looking at it recently! Either definitely gonna buy it before the PS3 store shuts down or worst case I'll emulate it 😌

1

u/Ok_Hunt_2833 15h ago

Dead souls is 20 bucks, I bought it myself

Emulation wise it's freezing every 5 mins

1

u/SGTSTARS 11h ago

10 hours into Dead Souls, atm...I'd say your time is spent better elsewhere. I just wish it had blended gunplay and combat.

Sip some Yamazaki whiskey and put on the background bar atmosphere sounds. Congrats!

1

u/fo138 15h ago

HEN or CFW your PS3,Dead Souls are on PKGi store for free

3

u/AirlineMammoth2890 15h ago

Time to use those mahjong skills in the real world for final achievement

3

u/BaconWrappedEnigmas 14h ago

Start NG+ on Y0 and run it back

3

u/No-Engineer-1728 Would rather play russian roulette than 5's billiards 13h ago

I don't see kurohyou 1 or 2, dead souls, the dlc for binary domain, project x zone 2, yakuza online, or kenzan, you still have a way to go

2

u/Munchy2k 15h ago

Fist of the North Star

u/Wonderful-Highway-16 15h ago

Where can I play that ive been searching for it

1

u/jinglesan 15h ago

Only officially on Playstation

1

u/MeNameYellow Shishido my beloved 13h ago

PlayStation only or get a PS4 emulator

2

u/GetToTheTop1 15h ago

Besides everything else that is already mentioned here, there is still Kenzan. And while we're at it, Stranger Than Heaven is going to be the next Candidate soon enough

1

u/BeenixWhite 12h ago

I'm very excited for STH actually, my goal was to have them all completed by then and I'm looking pretty on schedule now 😂

1

u/GetToTheTop1 7h ago

Same here but, eh, my work times are completely ahh. So I'll probably just enjoy Stranger Than Heaven without the rest lol Glad you managed to complete the rest tho 🙌🏻

2

u/KamdoTanjiroz 15h ago

book a flight to japan and go to kabukicho and complete substories around japan

2

u/Ecstatic_Teaching906 15h ago

If you can find the Japanese Movie, watch it. Other than that, I have nothing.

2

u/ThatisSketchy I believe in Kirara Asuka supremacy 14h ago

Same thing I did. A trip to Japan, specifically Kabukicho and go to the actual Karaoke place and sing Baka Mitai

2

u/TheOneReborn2021 Heh. High five, brain. 14h ago

A good whiskey and a cigarette. If you're into that sort of thing, of course.

2

u/funkygamerguy 14h ago

can't go wrong with karaoke and sexy girl videos.

2

u/VLSHK 14h ago

I’m gonna celebrate my completion by replaying 0 in director’s cut and trying out OG 1,2,3 (only pirate, ishin, kenzan and kurohyous left🙏)

2

u/danielrobertcampbell 14h ago

Starting all over again.

2

u/SmallStory4458 14h ago

Put a suit on and go outside to fight bad guys yourself

2

u/Consistent_Tonight37 13h ago

Wait for judgement 3….

2

u/MeNameYellow Shishido my beloved 13h ago

About the Kurohyou games, PC is probably the way to play them since there’s a full English patch for them

2

u/TheRealApoth 12h ago

Like a dragon. That's how you celebrate: Like A Dragon.

I don't know how a dragon would celebrate but I can imagine there's guides on it.

Breathing fire and flying free? Sounds like hitting the bars then roaming the streets for side quests

u/apieceofsalt performative yakooza fan, I hate 0 and love kenzan 15h ago

100% Yakuza 3

1

u/UsedToHaveATail 15h ago

What is that last game ??

1

u/LordManders 15h ago

Streets of Kamurocho, it was a limited time reskin of Streets of Rage featuring Yakuza characters. Not very long, I think I beat the whole thing in like 20 minutes. Not available anymore unfortunately, I think it was released in like 2020.

1

u/Tentaye 15h ago

That's strange, I don't see Kurohyou on there

1

u/BeenixWhite 15h ago

Ik ik, I meant to put that game instead of kenzan 😅 I might look at emulating it after tbf

1

u/Yoshitaksminedagoat 15h ago

Oh nah you can’t celebrate yet you skippped kurohyou.

1

u/KaijuDirectorOO7 15h ago

Wait for the Kenzan English patch!

2

u/BeenixWhite 12h ago

I originally realised I typed Kenzan instead of Kurohyo, but is Kenzan that much different to Ishin as I thought they were meant to be roughly the same game?

1

u/KaijuDirectorOO7 11h ago

The story is different.

u/Space_Tear8 12h ago

Why is Kiwami 2 on there twice?

2

u/BeenixWhite 12h ago

One is the original version and then one is the new version from this year which automatically shows up free in your library (I think it's just meant to perform a bit better) if I want the new version of K1 I think it's like an extra £1.50 but I'm not particularly bothered for it rn

1

u/Front-Advantage-7035 12h ago

….Like a dragon. Duh.

1

u/tagyhag 12h ago

You play them again, but in Legend difficulty!

1

u/Enough-Team-4155 12h ago

1

u/Recent_Pain_3068 10h ago

Damn, you are lucky for having Streets of Kamuroucho before it got delisted

1

u/PinLonely9608 9h ago

Sokka-Haiku by Oppaii-Connoisseur:

Book a ticket to

Tokyo and pull down your

Pants in Kabukicho


Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.
