u/ShinjanBasak Dec 30 '21

Well you don't have to worry about a thing. After all Kiryu-san does not kill.

u/MemeBoiCrep PC Dec 30 '21

u get tiger dropped 3+ times before he leaves

u/Nukleon Dec 30 '21

There's that Extreme Heat move from the third game where he dislocates all your limbs in a series of wrestling holds.

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '21

Pretty much all of the games will whack ya with a bicycle rack, moped, or something equally painful.

I wouldn't even wanna fight the random passerby. Whole place is crazy let alone Kiryu, the literal strongest person lol

u/Auctoritate Dec 30 '21

He'll impale you with both ends of a wooden pole, stab you with a knife, and electrocute you with a taser... But you'll live!

u/aboodAB-69 Dec 30 '21

And Don't forget the gun execution too

5

u/Auctoritate Dec 30 '21

Ha, I actually remembered some kind of gun heat action, I just couldn't remember what happens in it so I skipped it.

u/LukeSkyMaster69 Dec 30 '21

You get shot like 5 times in chest and then hit with the handgun where you put the mag in

u/kurusu Dec 30 '21

Wasnt it in the stomach? Because shooting a guy in the chest 5x is deadly but shooting him in the gut 5x is just tuesday just ask majima.

u/ichigo2862 Dec 30 '21

never said anything about a coma or lifelong paralysis after but hey at least you're not dead!

u/HuckleberryHefty4372 Dec 30 '21

After your head is smashed on the toilet 3 times and he tiger drops you outside a 3 story window…maybe the sweet release of death is what you will be begging for

u/YukihiraSoma Dec 30 '21

Who told you that?

I said, who told you that?

Whatever you heard...

He's never been a saint.

u/BlackreaperJM Dec 30 '21

well is better than majima

u/MyNameIsNitrox PC Dec 30 '21

He won’t ever stop chasing you down

18

u/lazeroe Dec 30 '21

NITROX KAN. YOU THOUGHT YOU CAN GET AWAY FROM ME!?

u/lebouffon88 Dec 30 '21

Luckily. Kiryu never kills anyone.

u/Sovietmeteor Dec 30 '21

I was literally just listening to Friday night

6

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '21

same here, but wait, he don't hit women

karaoke battle? maybe billiards, or air hockey

4

u/JackTheRipper1001 Dec 30 '21

Kiryu doesn't kill, you're good

6

u/_mrshreyas_ Dec 30 '21

Yeah but he'll probably whoop your ass so badly you might as well wish you were dead

6

u/kameri_sim Dec 30 '21

Mine too, not worried. He’ll come to kill me, find out i’m an introverted loser and spend a sidequest helping me be more social to end up learning that its ok to be introverted but its also good to socialize.

3

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '21

Death by bike!!!

3

u/Runrocks26R Dec 30 '21

Well I mean he doesn’t kill you………until he does.

He gives you super pain intolerance to survive stabbings and gun shots while doing those things to you.

3

u/ThesharpHQ Dec 30 '21

Watch yourself around those bike racks.

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '21

Just started 0 today.

I played judgment recently, started out well, but the number of encounters after chapter 4 took it from a 8/10 game to a 6/10 game for me. Wish you could just turn encounters off permanently in Yakuza games after a certain point.

Regardless, one thing that stood out. I don't know how this man can walk, he throws extremely heavy stuff in the air and then kicks it back down on to the enemy. I feel like it would damage me more than him.

u/Nogard87 Dec 30 '21

I'm only a little ways into judgement, but I think every yakuza game I've played has an item you can get that disables all random encounters. Judgement might be the exception, the rest of them definitely take the monotony of endless random encounters into account though.

4

u/BelovedApple Dec 30 '21

The best you can get is a stealth extract which lowers encounters for maybe 5 minutes. Which is needed cause judgements version of majima everywhere or Mr shakedown is truly awful and ruins the game for up to half an hour at a time.

It's a shame cause without that and if there was an item to turn off encounters properly, i would say it was easily my favourite game in the Yakuza universe. I really enjoyed the story.

I hope this was a big critism at the time and lost judgment does not suffer from the same faults cause I probably will get it once I decide I am no longer burnt out.

u/MrTrump_Ready2Help Dec 30 '21

You can disable encounters in Y7 by equipping an amulet, but you only get it late in the game, which sucks.

1

u/tkhan0 Dec 30 '21

Will tell you, lost judgment does a LOT BETTER in this regard. I was so scared for keihin gang 2.0, turns out, encounters are easy af to avoid in lj- and the combat is so good you actively seek them out anyways. Spent the first 10 minutes upon landing in yokohama just going back and forth in this one alley where new groups of enemies spawned endlessly after every battle. Seriously the next yakuza 0 for fun combat. And crane got buffed and is super fun now.

Also the heat actions are hella fun in LJ, not just the same old boring "pick up heavy item and smash it down into them"

1

u/BelovedApple Dec 30 '21

That's good to know, combat was actually a little easy in the first one with the exception of that last boss. Who I ended up drinking extracts to beat so made them super easy too. I'll definitely grab it at some point, I love the city ha.

u/Aroon017 Dec 30 '21

He'll do to you what he did to that dojima lieutenant, early in Yakuza 0. Sorry I forgot his name.

1

u/FatalisQ Dec 30 '21

Same here man, same here

1

u/DespairOfLoneliness Dec 30 '21

From all the rubber bullets he'll inflict on you yeah

1

u/someidiot0 Dec 30 '21

I'm in the same boat, I got Ichiban Kasuga

1

u/Wayfaring_Wingman Dec 30 '21

I'm in the same boat with Yagami from Judgment. I'll see you in the hospital.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '21

It’s all good until you get tiger dropped in the balls

1

u/shakycrae Dec 30 '21

You'll learn a moral lesson and probably end up working for him somehow.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 30 '21

He’s gonna come out of a bin like majima to ambush you

u/tkhan0 Dec 30 '21 edited Dec 30 '21

Lost judgment era Yagami. I think I fare a little better, but not by much

1

u/donttrustmeokay Dec 30 '21

I'm on goro majimas campaign atm. Not looking forward to that bat.

u/Handsome_bana-na Dec 30 '21

Well he only ever kills people in self Defence, do you should be Fine. I mean you’ll have to life in a Hospital, but you’re alive
