I did really love the batting cages in Y1 though.jfissel wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 7:51 pm Played some new minigames in Y6 and I think Izzy will be all over one of them. The first is spearfishing, where you actually dive underwater and have to complete a course while getting attacked by fish. All of the creatures you spear get you experience and cash. The second game is baseball. Yes, there's been batting cages forever (and they still have those in Y6), but this is basically a management sim. You recruit better players by completing substories and then assign players to positions, train them, assemble your batting order, and then play other teams. You even have to control the hitter, like the batting cage minigame, a few times a game.

Yep, here's the best video I could find of the baseball management sim (it's in Japanese, but you can see what's happening):isthatallyougot wrote: ↑Wed Jun 06, 2018 5:54 amWhat the?!

That looks really cool! I love how Yakuza incorporates so much variety and little diversions. It just gives things a breadth/depth that makes you get lost in the world. And this is speaking from someone who's only played one entry.

You all are killing me with the great impressions on Y6 and Onrush.
Meanwhile, I'm still over here running through the mists of Nifelheim.

Niflheim is fun for a while, cane. How many more of the optional bosses do you have left?

Five or six. That will be my focus after Niflheim.
