wackt1 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 So, how easy is the game to platinum? Also how good is the game in regards to its gameplay and story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chellesan Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 i think the platinum take some work but the story is good and fun to play, im a big fan of the yakuza serie so i really cannot say anything bad about it, but if you like some drama story and with some comic things in it you will like it, i think kiwami is a good start for learning the serie and see what makes yakuza so awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katt Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 climax battles are freaking annoying, everything else is doable. lot of climax battles requires to beat the crap out of enemies without getting hit not even a single time, that's the annoying part. Train a lot and don't lose your cool when you fail. Rest a couple days and come back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgm4789 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Its definitely middle of the road in terms of difficulty. Its not as crazy hard and/or long as 0,3, or 5 but it isn't as crazy short and/or easy as 4, 6 and dead souls either. Id definitely place it in the middle in terms of difficulty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aZombieDictator Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 "Ease of plat" Oh boy are you in for a wild ride. Get on your gambling shoes and start learning mahjong. But the game is an absolute masterpiece. It's not for everyone though. Can be pretty tough to get into. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefourfoldroot Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I'd kid of like to know this too. Loved Zero, but gave up on the plat once I realised I'd never get the mahjong trophy. Also, has Sony censored it in any way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough in 0 it only took me two hours to learn and complete the mahjong aspect of this game. It was the climax battles that stopped me from getting the plat. So I expect a similar story in this but I’ll still play it purely because of the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z1MZUM Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I love the Yakuza games but never platted one so I can't say. I wish I could use my Japanese Kiwami saves with the English one tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xh117 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 The climax battles aren't as hard as you would think, really doable with practice in some. Mahjong isn't so bad, its basically like poker with a different ruleset, only thing that sucks is memorizing the numbers of the character suit (they fixed this in kiwami 2 and 6 by adding numbers on the tiles) Biggest wall you'll face in this is the car chase on legend and otometal my life for Haruka's request. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In yakuza 0 game you have a mahjong guide that's pretty good. I didn't know how to play either before reading this guide and now it's pretty easy (however you still have to rely on luck) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarpEsen Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I absolutely loved the game itself. The plat however is another story. Most of the minigames require crazy amount of luck. Other than that I didn’t have much of a problem with anything. Climax battles were not so hard IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einamu Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Personally for me the Legend difficulty scared me off of the plat due to a certain vehicle part of the game, I managed it in 0 but it's way harder in Kiwami. Mahjong isn't too terribly hard if you can set aside a few hours to learn the rules, once you get the hang of it it's pretty straightforward (and I believe someone made a guide to Mahjong in the Yakuza 0 Guides section so that can be helpful.)

HeroFangGhetz Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Like every other game in the series, it's very time consuming. As for me, i quit this game because i can't be bothered to learn Mahjong or any other Eastern minigame, plus those Haruka requests. Not worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ale84x Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) It's surely hard and long if you've never played a yakuza game, i find Haruka requests annoying but not hard at all, especially otometal i did 960 on my first try. As for mahjong, it sure is difficult for us westerners but the game helps a lot, with the cheat item you get thirteen orphans and the "go out with haneman" is out of the way. Riichi Ippatsu is luck based but it happens eventually while you're going for the other points (i got this easily on kiwami and on 0 ). If you enable the red dora rule you can do crazy amount of points simply by not stealing tiles to others and keeping an eye on the doras also. For example i was struggling getting the last "Go out with mangan" so i kept doing hands without stealing anything. Yesterday i got a simple riichi hand with one red dora tile, two doras and one ura dora (i got lucky there). My knowledge of mahjong is very basic but it's enough to plat this game and it should only take a couple of hours to achieve for just everyone. For the full straight (that can be annoying) i have an advice, if you play ranked matches you only pay 50k yen once. Then you can start a game, if you happen to have at least 5 6 different tiles of the same suit then try and go for it, otherwise just quit and retry until you have, i managed to get it right at my fourth try. Keep in mind that a full straight must have three triplets of the same suit (123 456 789), any other triplet and a pair. You can steal tiles but be aware that a triplet like 234 or 678 will not be good for this, it has to be 123 456 789. I only miss the car chase in legend for the plat and some minigames but nothing difficult, just points on baccarat / poker .... more tedious tham hard.. we'll see!

DaveMcDamage Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 My first Yakuza game was Zero. Truly enjoyed it but some of the minigames and climax battles were soul destroying. Got the plat and moved on. Now on Kiwami.... In terms of story its good. Its not a patch on Zero's writing but then the original Yakuza game was around 2004 whilst Zero was 2017 or something, so the writers were more experienced and stuff like that. Its still a good story but can also be very laughable (not in the good way) at times. For the platinum ease I'd say its more difficult than Zero. Haruka's requests can be very tiresome and very difficult. And the driving scene on legend is much worse than on Zero as Kiwami's version is one massive level with no save until you do it. Not reached that myself though as I want to get all minigames and that Haruka s**t out of the way and then get the climax battles done for the war god talisman to carry over into legend. Thats another thing to note. On Kiwami you can take a lot of stuff from your first playthrough into legend unlike Zero where you had to start all over.
