[@gameparty-yt7290]

i still to this day cannot even begin to comprehend why the designers for this game thought that it would be a good idea to have saejima literally hallucinate himself in the city doing stuff in order to "pass the time" while he was in prison rather than just cutting to the next scene

[@zoroasper9759]

They probably were super afraid people would think "man is this going to take place entirely in a prison?" and they went "no no look we have a city modeled too, just wait a bit" Then they proceeded to force us to play the shitty version of red dead redemption 2's snow missions for hours

[@nickoftime7232]

[@to2wacze612]

​@@zoroasper9759shoulda had the prison be a mini hub world and let saejima travel to his homie to go to kamurocho when you feel like it maybe add him in tsukimino in premium adventure if you can miss something for the completion

[@astrarobotica]

​@@to2wacze612 yes because prison is absolutely known to be a place that lets you come and go when you feel like it

[@to2wacze612]

@astra_robotica ever heard of a prison furlough?but seriously no going in and out of prison is not what I meant when I said the prison should be a hub world i meant the interior added onto the already existing exterior in the prison section so you can go to saejima's cell and talk to the dude which let's you do any activity thats in tsukimino,shorten the tutorial to just saejima and him talking about hostesses while walking down the alley into the mafia fight and you wouldn't miss anything.he'd have a dialogue boxes that teleports you in front of the pool bar,karaokekan,free roam and other places.also add a cafeteria in prison that has a exclusive menu that you can't visit again to fuck with completionists.

[@renotv3860]

I feel like I'm the only guy who actually likes Haruka in Yakuza 5. I find her whole chapter to be a refreshing change of pace and being able to run around town without having to deal with encounters is a godsend.

[@johnpitro4585]

Let's all be honest, he just wanted Shinada to become an idol, but Haruka took that part of the game. That's why he doesn't like it 😂

[@bibblehouse]

it's because Haruka acts nothing like she used to; younger Haruka was smart and she didn't take anyone's shit. Yakuza 5 Haruka is bland, she's a total pushover and she's so stupid that she causes Yakuza 6 to happen.

[@blueblazer9991]

The Yakuza Remaster including a physical english case for the ps3 version of Yakuza 5, to me, always represented just how much the people involved in this series care and are in touch with their fanbase

[@Kro-RissaVirus]

Nah bro Haruka’s section is my favorite part of the entire game. It’s perfect. An incredible way to break up the pace halfway through the story and refresh you with some of the best banger songs in the entire franchise. We love Haruka’s Y5 section.

[@lovelydumpling]

I just beat Y5 myself and yeah I loved Haruka's part (tho the ending I'm not crazy about.) Personally I think it's okay for Haruka to not be a fighter. For some reason a lot of people seem to think female characters are only worthwhile if they're fighters. I personally have never wanted Haruka to have to get into fights. I'm all on board for an ass kicking female protag, and I love Sayama, but that life doesn't have to be for everybody. And it also feels a little weird to conflate Haruka's brave and headstrong nature with "she has to become a fighter".

[@TheRedJadex]

​​@@lovelydumplingYeah. There are different types of bravery, and there are different kinds of strength, and Haruka's is no more worthless for not being tailored towards combat.

[@chuckfinley1501]

The noodle minigame song went so hard for no reason in Y5

[@nahhhidwin]

I didn’t even know there was an achievement for doing it 3+ times I just did it because it was a great minigame with a banger soundtrack

[@DarkkirbyKRPG]

The thing with Haruka is that making her a fighter would go against everything Kiryu has ever done and will do after 5 to protect her from the underworld of the yakuza. Even if you replace the idol contest with a karate competition, you have to remember that Haruka got dragged into 5's story because the people after her are actually yakuza trying to use her as blackmail for Kiryu. In this scenario, making Haruka a fighter would motivate her to insert herself not only in this conflict, but any future conflicts Kiryu would have, because she can hold her own in a way, but again this is going against everything her story and relationship with Kiryu establishes, and would make the ending of 6 borderline impossible. With Haruka specifically, it's not because she's a female protagonist but because of who she is, or at least that's what I think RGG saw in her story. Maybe she could take some classes for self defense and defending the other kids, but she shouldn't go as deep as being able to fight like the other playable characters because of the inserting herself into every conflict thing. Either way, 5 is pretty good, it's one of my favorites from the Yakuza series. It's has a lot to say, it has a lot to play, and while it's a big mess overall, it's a very enjoyable mess with one of the best combat systems in the series. Shinada is indeed borderline broken btw, you can cheese his Amon fight by grabbing a metal pole and just RUNNING lmao.

[@itsmalario4070]

Nah

[@tim14022000]

One of the trailers for Yakuza Online showed the potential of her being actually able to defend herself. I have to agree that she maybe shouldn't jump into every conflict, but her learning to defend herself so that not every petty yakuza kidnaps her with kiryu ending up to constantly safe her sorry ass would be a better decision than the dumbass one that she made to become an idol. (And that would probably have prevented her doing the next dumbass decision in Yakuza 6)

[@JunGaGotoku]

Yeah but Yakuza 6 Haruka was doodoo water

[@SnowiestAngeman]

Ay bruh I dunno about you but I knew a girl who was a black belt in karate and she never once got into a real fight and I think becoming an idol with a concert that had, like, 100,000 people in the crowd at the end of the game paints a way bigger target on you compared to an under 18 karate tournament with like 100+ parents and like 50 kids lol

[@DanielFerreira-ez8qd]

@@SnowiestAngeman Yeah, then her purpose for being part of the story as is is pretty moot, isn't it? Kiryu left the orphanage BECAUSE of haruka wanting to go and become an idol. If that doesn't happen, there's no story, and the themes they wanted to explore would have to be explained some other way, and I will bet MONEY you can't really explain another way to have kiryu leave and hide instead of immediately fighting to the death.

[@Brassrain0su]

two things: 1. I'm kinda glad that Shinada didn't get any more story. His arc feels very complete and i feel like touching it in any way would make that worse. I would absolutely love for him to get more screen time, but maybe via means of substory of him being happy in life and something unexpected happening to him. 2. haruka being the damsel in distress to me is fine, but the rest of orphanage kids not having almost anyone left there to watch over them rubs me the wrong way. Mikio (i think that was the name of Rikiya's sidekick?) hasn't appeared in any game since 3. What I would love to see is someone like Taichi, who already has wrestling aspirations, join Ichi's team, or maybe even Kiryu's (though that would undo y6).

[@RakastanPorkkanakakkua]

I unironically want to play Yakuza 5 because of the Haruka sections just because my favorite part of all the games I played was the Karaoke. I want a whole campaign based on the Karaoke and I'm not kidding.

[@hairy_putin]

Playing as Haruka was great, but they didn't flesh her part of the game out that much, which is a shame, they really should have done more with her and split her and Akiyama into two distinct chapters. Oh, and they kinda changed her character for the worse and made it even more horrible in 6, so I'm just warning you.

Shinada’s section was damaged really hard by it being the fourth hard plot reset in a game that feels like it’s a million hours long. By the time you reach his section, you’re so sick of the game that you just want it to be over. I despised it until rewatching the cutscenes recently.

BTW I wish that my ps4 didn't inexplicably broke about 2 months ago, and GOD I miss the random times that I said "u know what, I will play Y5" and just start playing

[@Brawler1993]

As a rhythm game fan, I honestly enjoyed Haruka's section of this game but if I had to choose between that and Haruka taking after Kiryu and beating up fools on the street, I'd choose the latter in a heartbeat. Or at least have her take self defense lessons so she has a similar combat style to Tanimura that revolves around parries and counters.

[@JimMilton-ej6zi]

I liked the rhythm game part where you did street battles but needing to play the exact same song many times to 100% her section was hellish

[@tim14022000]

I also enjoyed the rhythm game part but her learning to actually defend herself would have been a far better choice than going idol and Kiryu still having to constantly safe her ass

Still in the top 3 Yakuza games, this and 0 where the series peaked (the Judgement games were pretty good too). I liked the Haruka part, after getting thorugh the Kiryu and Saejima part it's a nice change of pace to just relax and not fight everyone for an hour or two. Also we don't need more Shinada stuff, his story was great but he did his part and got his happy ending (same with Tanimura from 4 though he is probably dead).

[@authurstretchygreenthing8464]

I will also openly admit that I didn't have the best opinion of Shinada's moveset, and that the game really is easy enough to get through it without taking advantage of it. But after seeing his heat actions and a few videos on how to actually get the most out of his moveset, let alone discovering that he's supposed to be a weapon master? Now I actually want to play this game again and see how far I can take that. See how much easier I would've had it if I just played more into the emphasis on weapons.
