Fun Fact, that “I peacocked your mom last night” line is a reference to the original translation of the game and that line is not an accurate translation and just something the translators threw in there for fun. This is also referenced when the guy said “I think something got lost in translation”.
Oh snap I actually totally forgot about that. Yeah you get to Meet Ryuji as a pretty BIG kid in Yakuza 0. And if you do a sub story as Kiryu in Kamurocho from a fortune teller you also get to BRIEFLY bump into him when the fortune teller subtly tells you "the next person you bump into will be a strong presence in your future."
Ryuji: Give us the most expensive bottle in the place! Waiter: *brings a $45 bottle of Suntory XO Deluxe Brandy* Man, the Grand has really gone downhill since Majima left.
FYI: in Yakuza 0 you can actually met Ryuji Goda in side quest while plaiyng as Majima there will be one male high school student asking for Majima help said he got beat up and his botan (school pants) got stolen by someone as Majima investigate he'll encounter Ryuji Goda and even misunderstood Majima was wearing one of those botan (which is not it's just suit legging/pants or whatever you preferred) and attempted to take it from Majima, you'll fight young version of Goda Ryuji (he was still in elementary school back then) and once you beat him Ryuji's classmate will come to explain that those high school student were bullying them and Ryuji were getting revenge on them by beat them and taking bontans (even Majima surprise that Ryuji takes on student twice the size/age of him and won) for Kiryu there's sidequest where he help old women who's fortune teller and once Kiryu help her and she'd give him a fortune telling for free and Kiryu accidentally bump into Ryuji Goda while he's on school field trip, there's no fight breakout so whatever aside from "hey watch where you going" by Ryuji personally i find it amazing how Majima actually fought most of main Antagonist before Kiryu even does (Nishikiyama,Goda Ryuji) and Majima was also a Sotaro Komaki (a martial art master standing at purgatory entrance) student before Kiryu. just amazing
I like Ryuji personnally, because his voice is great his coat is great and he is an idiot ( he's like 50% ego, 40% the same fighty disease Majima has, and 40% Daddy Issues, I know it's more than 100 but hey he's a big dude) They actually use him in two of the Alternate Universe games I love the weird Nemesis Triangle where Ryuji wants Kiryu to be his nemesis because Dragons and Daigo's there like "no Ryuji you're MY obvious narrative foil you should be MY nemesis"
If you're still having prompt issues Jess you can try this this fix I found on the Steam forums: -Right-click Yakuza Kiwami 2 in steam library and select Properties. -Force Steam Input Per-Game Setting "Forced Off" (Requires restart of game). If you want to know whats happening is the game is controlling the DS4 stuff and the Steam Controller API is interfering with it since the game isn't using that.
It's really in your interest to replenish health when you can by eating at restaurants instead of using up health items (keep those for battle), as you'll get the XP necessary for upgrades.
I totally agree i like Kaorou too (the Tokyo PD Detective Division 4 Organized Crime) And yeah Daigo is really strong but he shouldn't just face Goda with all the Rage in his Heart because that's exactly what keeps him unfocused to actually beat him Also keep in Mind to go in a don quijote and buy a Red Bracelete there and equip it that way your Defense gets stronger steamcommunity.com/app/927380/discussions/0/1652169858538013789/ Btw this Mod should keep the Controls in PS4 Layout for the PC Version of Yakuza Kiwami 2
I was wondering if your PS4 controller was gonna give you any issues during combat. Got my answer during one of the Goda fight QTEs :S Good job tho It's refreshing how the game now has two badass women playing a big part in the Yakuza (under)world. The Tojo chairwoman and that Division Four detective. It's a nice change of pace imo. Also, is it possible the detective is the surviving baby during Date's flashback? Maybe she wants to pair up with Kiryu to get more intel on Kazama, who killed her father.
To me he is one of the weakest to be honest. his whole buildup was super anticlimactic. [Spoiler] You beat him super early in the game and he doesn't feel like a threat anymore at all.. just like a stupid meathead with no deep purpose.. and the "reveal" at the end was such an asspull. Even Mine from Yakuza 3 way better than ryuji. after i did beat him first time, he doesnt really appear in the story anymore till the end.. i even forgot about him for the longest time of the game. he is not even near the villain class of a Kuze or Shibuzawa from Yakuza 0. For me the story of (Kiwami)2 is super overhyped.. i was really disappointed. I didnt feel ANYTHING during my playthrough. While i cried like a baby in 0.
If you want a lot of experience, eat food often. Also invest in the skills that let you eat more before you get full, so you can eat more and get more exp :P
You can pick up weapons and store in your inventory for later use like the room full of grenades and golf clubs, etc. Just pick up a weapon and then press down on the d-pad to store them
A tip for you to gain points for your skill : you can either fight those street thugs encounter or just basically eat foods and if you do eat multiple meals at once sometimes you get an extra special meal if you match the multiple meals combo correctly, the special meal will give you bonus points.
You said Kaoru looks familiar. I thought so, too. She looks like someone who appeared in previous games. I'm not going to say who, in case my suspicions are right.
You'll only remember them if you did the substories in 0. They were only added as fan-service anyway. You won't miss much if you didn't meet "Bontan Hunter" Ryuji and kid Daigo in Yakuza 0.
It's funny, Takashima (the dude pushing the Chairman's wheelchair) was orignally a very young man in the original Yakuza 2, which was sorta the point of the character, him being skilled for his age. Can't remember why they changed him to an old guy. Always been sorta disappointed in that.
Ryuji is supposed to be the strongest villain in the series, which is why he is tough to beat even this early on in the game. But gameplay wise he is a lot easier than the villains who spam guns like Jingu and Arase from Kiwami 1
Ryuji Goda, one of my favorite antagonists. And we fought him in Yakuza 0, and the man was 12 years old and nearly as tall as Majima and Kiryu
16:53 I will NEVER stop enjoying Kiryu's "Boy are you serious?" look he gave to that thug.
That was the best thing in this chapter lmao
Fun Fact, that “I peacocked your mom last night” line is a reference to the original translation of the game and that line is not an accurate translation and just something the translators threw in there for fun. This is also referenced when the guy said “I think something got lost in translation”.
I wonder what the original options were. I like to think the Japanese also gave Kiryu a sassy option for this remake.
Ryuji doesn’t hate Kiryu. It’s like there’s two heavyweight champions and he wants there to be only one champion.
There can only be one Dragon
There’s a side story in Yakuza 0 where you can meet Ryuji Goda when he’s a kid. It’s one of Majima’s side stories.
Oh snap I actually totally forgot about that. Yeah you get to Meet Ryuji as a pretty BIG kid in Yakuza 0. And if you do a sub story as Kiryu in Kamurocho from a fortune teller you also get to BRIEFLY bump into him when the fortune teller subtly tells you "the next person you bump into will be a strong presence in your future."
That boy was 12 years old in Zero, damn he had quite the growth spurt
i love how he goes from pants stealer to complete badass
I fucking love that when Kiryu mentions Ryuji to Majima, he remarks thay Goda is the type of guy to murder you and steal your pants
@@ChrispyCremee He was still a badass back then too. Dude was beating high schoolers when he was 12.
Ryuji: Give us the most expensive bottle in the place!
Waiter: *brings a $45 bottle of Suntory XO Deluxe Brandy*
Man, the Grand has really gone downhill since Majima left.
That and then the bubble burst (Thanks, Majima!) and then the recession followed.
FYI: in Yakuza 0 you can actually met Ryuji Goda in side quest while plaiyng as Majima there will be one male high school student asking for Majima help said he got beat up and his botan (school pants) got stolen by someone as Majima investigate he'll encounter Ryuji Goda and even misunderstood Majima was wearing one of those botan (which is not it's just suit legging/pants or whatever you preferred) and attempted to take it from Majima, you'll fight young version of Goda Ryuji (he was still in elementary school back then)
and once you beat him Ryuji's classmate will come to explain that those high school student were bullying them and Ryuji were getting revenge on them by beat them and taking bontans (even Majima surprise that Ryuji takes on student twice the size/age of him and won)
for Kiryu there's sidequest where he help old women who's fortune teller and once Kiryu help her and she'd give him a fortune telling for free and Kiryu accidentally bump into Ryuji Goda while he's on school field trip, there's no fight breakout so whatever aside from "hey watch where you going" by Ryuji
personally i find it amazing how Majima actually fought most of main Antagonist before Kiryu even does (Nishikiyama,Goda Ryuji) and Majima was also a Sotaro Komaki
(a martial art master standing at purgatory entrance) student before Kiryu. just amazing
Majima was always one step ahead, but with a broken ankle I guess-
Jess : Im using fire extinguisher
Omi guy : Im dancing...
1:00:17 - That wasn't murder, that was uh.. Rubber bullets. Dude is fine.
Nice reference
Ah Ryuji. You've come so far from stealing pants in Yakuza 0.
Ryuji Goda, Shinji Tanaka, Daigo Dojima appeared in Yakuza 0
"Again at millenium tower?"
Haha we are gonna hear that a LOT. That tower is the centerpiece for any yakuza action from now on.
It kinda has been for 0 too, in a sense
In the third game it becomes the most glorified fighting ring in the world, everyone and their mothers want to challenge Kiryu in there (x
@@wolfking4556 Yeah. The whole story revolved around owning the plot of land the Millennium Tower would eventually get built on.
I like Ryuji personnally, because his voice is great his coat is great and he is an idiot ( he's like 50% ego, 40% the same fighty disease Majima has, and 40% Daddy Issues, I know it's more than 100 but hey he's a big dude)
They actually use him in two of the Alternate Universe games
I love the weird Nemesis Triangle where Ryuji wants Kiryu to be his nemesis because Dragons and Daigo's there like "no Ryuji you're MY obvious narrative foil you should be MY nemesis"
When the bottle hit Kiryu’s head and he gave that look I just heard “bitch you really just tried to hit me with a dollar-store bottle?”
kiryu chan😍😍😍😍😍
@16:57 freeze frame. And it was in that moment he realized, he done f%*ked up
I love the aspect of two tough guys talking tough guy Yakuza stuff while drinking energy drinks from rainbow coloured cans.

i literally came here for "i peacocked your mom" just to see if others laughed as hard as i did when i saw it
21:00
Goda: what’s ur name
Kazuma: Kiryu Kazuma
Goda: Dojima no Ryuu
It's really in your interest to replenish health when you can by eating at restaurants instead of using up health items (keep those for battle), as you'll get the XP necessary for upgrades.
Yeah, i agree, Daigo reminds me of hiw Kyriu acts on the beginning on Yakuza 0.
Hey, Jessica, I dunno if you know this, but as you progress through the game, you can unlock a small side story and play as Majima
I totally agree i like Kaorou too (the Tokyo PD Detective Division 4 Organized Crime)
And yeah Daigo is really strong but he shouldn't just face Goda with all the Rage in his Heart because that's exactly what keeps him unfocused to actually beat him
Also keep in Mind to go in a don quijote and buy a Red Bracelete there and equip it that way your Defense gets stronger

Btw this Mod should keep the Controls in PS4 Layout for the PC Version of Yakuza Kiwami 2
If this game had a dub, I have a feeling Patrick Seitz would fit Ryuji like a glove.
Completely true
I was wondering if your PS4 controller was gonna give you any issues during combat. Got my answer during one of the Goda fight QTEs :S Good job tho

Side missions would upgrade you much more. This is why the boss fight with Riju Goda (the tank) seemed highly difficult to you. @Jessica
Hot tip: pressing Y on the map pulls a shop list which makes it easier to locate the pawn shop and the like.
Ryuji is considered one of the best villains in the series and there's a reason why he wants the war to go on and why he wants to kill kiyru
To me he is one of the weakest to be honest. his whole buildup was super anticlimactic.
[Spoiler]
You beat him super early in the game and he doesn't feel like a threat anymore at all.. just like a stupid meathead with no deep purpose.. and the "reveal" at the end was such an asspull.

Mine was the best villain for me
Mine is on of favorites but for me he's not number one for me with be nishiki
Becky I started the series in 2005 and the story of two brothers becoming enemies is always a good one for me
If you want a lot of experience, eat food often. Also invest in the skills that let you eat more before you get full, so you can eat more and get more exp :P
btw. you know that you can go to restaurants and eat to heal yourself? dont need to waste healing items all the time. eating also gives you EXP
You can pick up weapons and store in your inventory for later use like the room full of grenades and golf clubs, etc. Just pick up a weapon and then press down on the d-pad to store them
I love how ryuji is 8 yrs younger than kiryu
you gotta do fake kiryu side mission its ridiculous
And Be My Baby
Save your weapon uses for heat actions than attacking or defending
A tip for you to gain points for your skill : you can either fight those street thugs encounter or just basically eat foods and if you do eat multiple meals at once sometimes you get an extra special meal if you match the multiple meals combo correctly, the special meal will give you bonus points.
Kiryu is made of steel

Ryuji is my fav character.
Alright, you broke the piano?
Next part how about you Surrounding the Kamurocho District Alley there is one funny side story!
1:14:43
Kazuma: "Notto disu shitto agen."
You don't seem to remember Ryuji or Daigo.
You'll only remember them if you did the substories in 0. They were only added as fan-service anyway. You won't miss much if you didn't meet "Bontan Hunter" Ryuji and kid Daigo in Yakuza 0.
@@Meekail This is half of the fun
Kiryu, did you murder anyone, right?
"I Peacocked Your Mom" sounds like something Husbandogoddess, Sharky, and Michaela would also say.
you will like daigo i promise you lol
Majima...
I love Goda!!
Ryuji "the dragon of pettiness" goda

- man, you need to CHILL OUT
ところがどすこい。
Wiseguy, huh?
Did somebody say crab?
First
the old combat is better. loved the combat in yakuza 5...i remember playing this and Y6 and the combat bores me
Kiryu, did you murder anyone, right?
