@@Rare_R1 yeah, but kiryu falling on the floor in pain signals to the player how much the knife or the gunshot affects him, compared to getting hit by a pole, which is not as much, and doesn't do as much damage
tbh that's what made it fun for me. I used to spam in Y0 and both Kiwami (especially Kiwami 2 with the 2nd mode when you're in Heat), so I almost never used grabs or weapons before.
Sometimes there are some “special” street enemies and you can recognize them easily by their flashy clothes, such as leopard suits, red tracksuits and so on. By any means avoid them because they have coliseum enemies fighting styles and are normally accompanied by fat guys and at least one guy with a weapon (from bats to shotguns) and the reward for defeating them is just 30.000 yen or worse
Did you see how the enemy immediately blocked after you positioned him up? It's like stun locking isn't a concept, which makes no sense because Sega is well versed in action games and fighting games.
To be fair, I barely noticed the difference between this and what I was going through in like half of Yakuza 0. Like I could NOT connect a combo on literally anything just ever so slightly above the most basic mobs (assuming I was lucky to combo even those).
@@accelriderx2931 you could do that easily in Yakuza 0. I took it for granted, but i def had a way easier time with 0 with its polished combat.

tips for having a fun time in 3, I play this game quite a bit and contrary to popular opinion I like the challenge presented. - Use direstional attacks when in group fights, the ai doesnt know when to block what so when your with multiple people forget about the r1 button - Learn the komaki moves and use them to your advantage their extremely useful, parry, tiger drop etc - like in the video take advantage of kiryus other moves like the grabs - get behind enemies backs lol, i understand the remaster makes it a bit harder to do - you could feint the the beggining of the combo and hit them with the heavy finish - get drunk and go ham with heat actions Use this and have a blast
I'm on my first playthrough on Yakuza 3 remastered, while the combat is much more unpolished than the other games, it's certainly not hard, I pretty much used those tactics except the komaki moves
I finished lost Judgement before I beat Yakuza 3 so it felt like I was drinking cement lol. Glad I played through it though. The Yakuza series is definitely one of my favourite franchises I’ve ever played.
it got to a point i had to configure my controller so that the analouge stick couldnt go sideways at all just to garuntee a straight shot and that didnt even work half the time
They screwed up the remasters for a lot of the mini-games, and in the case of pool the analogue stick sensitivity is off the charts compared to the original games. I don't know if it was ever patched but I just use the mouse and keyboard, which for whatever reason always hits straight. On the keyboard, WASD is equivalent to holding the left analogue stick at an extreme, and the arrow keys are more like half strength, so I pretty much only use the arrow keys. If you're on console however, from what I've been told you're out of luck unless it got patched.
@@Gaff. Nah it's still busted on consoles, for PC though you can use the steam controller config to make sure it can only hit straight. It's definitely doable on consoles though, it's just WAY harder than it should be, Rotation specifically, Nine and Eight ball can be cheesed by going for an early win/break ace in Nine and hoping that the AI makes a horrible mistake and sinks the Eight ball early in Eight, which I can confirm still happens on Expert. Rotation is just pure hell though, the way it is now it's 98% luck and 2% making sure you don't panic when you can actually win. Thankfully 4 and 5 were a hell of alot easier, I don't know if they patched the pool minigame in those, but you don't need it in 4, as for 5 it was made significantly shorter and I personally didn't notice the same issues I had with 3.
@@BlackEyedJester Funny, I first noticed the problem in 5 and just used mouse and keyboard once I found out that worked fine, and never bothered to use a controller for billiards in any of the other games. I had just done mini-games completely in a bunch of the Yakuza games by the time I played 3 and 4 so I didn't play billiards at all in those till recently, now that I'm returning to those games. But yeah, it's defo a problem in 5, even if possibly less of one. I do know that in 3 the animations are clearly playing at double-speed, so perhaps the physics are more off as well.
You used the same combo like 4,5 times because that's the only combo that breaks guards. I wouldn't call that an amazing combat system. People need to accept that Y3 Combat is pretty flawed. And the fact that You unlock the moves that make it bareable so late into the game (K Parry's) just makes it worse on first playthoughts.
This video is made as a pure joke but i do admit that it's flawed. Though i personally disagree for it being bareable because of the dash mechanic being a life saver along with wall bounding to get through early game. I only didn't enjoy the golf part of the story because it was tedious. Though with mods you can make the game more fun i guess.
Story and funny substories on easy is a great experience. I consider myself a pretty dedicated fan but the "gameplay" on harder difficulties just isn't very fun. Random encounters against people in the street/bosses whose health bars shrink in millimetres are not the fun parts of this series.
@@high440 If you need to play on easy, and no normal or higher skill, to enjoy a game after 2/3 prior entries depending on if you started with 1 or 0 that is the definition of a fair flaw.
@Ethan Sifford let me tell u something one thing I hated so much in Y3 is the boss fight against Rikiya or I think against any boss in particular is that if I wanted to dodge and get behind the enemy and do combos on them instead of going behind them my character would do a full 360° and come back exactly where he was and get hit... I don't know why the didn't fix this in the PS4/PS5 remastered version..
@@Mirekluk it's ok for enemies to block, but holy shit, if you're constantly rushing them down with attacks, at least SOMETHING should land sooner or later. No one has 110% defense all the god damn time, especially not basic ass thugs off the street. Guard breaks don't even work, they just recover after you use one and block more... Even if you land a hit, they still just block the rest of the combo.
It's Hard you say ? Just play on easy, I used only (Square Square Square Square Triangle Triangle Combo) every enemy dies on that, problem solved, JUST PLAY ON EASY.
Yakuza 4’s combat is much better, I mean it had to be, given that it’s the next Yakuza game. Yakuza 5’s combat is like an unrefined version of Yakuza 0’s combat. When I play Yakuza 3, it feels like I’m playing a wrestling game with the amount of times I have to grab enemies or grab chairs and smack people around with it.
@@GonzoInside Yes Jingu is by far the worst. At first I thought it was Arase (in chapter 10) but after my replay of Kiwami he wasn't that hard to beat at all with Dragon Style full maxed out alongside all the other styles as well but with Jingu it's just so painfully obnoxious because of his two body guards plus he constantly fire / throw bombs as well.
@@sharjeelahmed7913 Arase and all the other bosses became pretty easy after I beat Kiwami's climax, but when I was fighting Jingu in my first playthrough the only reason I didn't suffer with him is because I used that shark cannon and a shotgun in that fight
at the start of the video when he picked up the guy, and then tries to combo him just for him to somefuckinhow do a 180 and block all of kiryu's attacks lol
I still have ptsd from fighting Hakuho captain on the way to Mine. That guy has cestus and he just stands there doing nothing and blocking. Took me like 30 minutes to beat him lol.
I think this doesnt show the issues with the combat on this game as a whole: -You start with waaaaaaaay less options, given the exp you have there you are already maxed it seems. -normal combo damage is low, or enemies are too tanky, and can break your combos easily, sure grab is an option but is way less developed than in y4 or 5 -you are fighinting normal thugs, show the tamashiro fight, that fight made me restart the game on normal when i always play the games on hard, because I couldnt get over it having done all side quests at that point and taking full healing items
I find that "air fighting" is much reliable/faster than 3rd finishing blow guard break. Do two regular punches away from the enemy and then do a double finisher towards them. Not only should you do a sweeping kick to them, they shouldn't block/dodge it. I think Hakuho Captain was the only enemy that was just too much to the point where I had to dodge shoulder tackle him to death. Fast, Chonky non-grabable enemies are the worse.
Lau ka long in kiwami 1: kiryu will be beaten with my skill strength and tenacity Lau Ka long in yakuze 3 RE: i will win with an assorted weaponry and hyperarmor and alot minions who block alot
I played Yakuza 3 in normal dificulty and now I'm playing Yakuza 4 also in normal but it feels so easy, enemys never defend themself, I need to know how to up the dificult to hard mode
For me, the issue was the boss fights, outside of Majima and the Kazama fight, though i was an idiot and played on hard so thats my fault, in all honesty. Was a little tedious having any significant damage be from spamming heat actions while drunk in crit health. the constant blocking and the invulnerable unblockable attacks after hitting them a few times was a bit much for me. Grunts are pretty simple. Grabbing is strong, heat actions knock people out effectively, big guys are when the weapons come out. I only got stun-locked a few times which isnt too bad. Still.. Fuck that game
These comment always doesn't make sense. These abilities aren't even unlocked in early game. Leaving you with a limited combat. Top it all of with the horrendous chip damage. And the broken AI of enemies.
You ever heard of a quickstep? Keep whining that the game is the first in the series to teach you how to effectively fight instead of mindlessly mashing your light and heavy combo, go back to Kiwami 2.
When I played this game myself, even after Yakuza 0, Kiwami 1 and 2, and 5, I thought the gameplay was pretty great. Even has some aspects I didn't see again 'til Yakuza Kiwami 2 or 6.
can't throw fatties in Y3, the trade off is that they don't have guard breaking attacks and if they miss you always have enough time to run behind and kill them
i'm pretty sure the guy wouldn't have turned around to block if this was the PS3 version in 0:14 . People have accepted a lot of the weird problems the remaster brought but the fact is, these weren't intentional design choices. They're bugs that came with the remaster.
Convenient that this is gameplay of the random encounter goons and not one of the many frustrating bosses that don't let you do anything besides quickstep + punch in back.
Best I can say about Y3 is it taught me to grab more, watch my back, and figure out viable ways to hit bosses. That’s being generous though because the entire game was a slog I regret playing

When I played this game myself, even after Yakuza 0, Kiwami 1 and 2, and 5, I thought the gameplay was pretty great. Even has some aspects I didn't see again 'til Yakuza Kiwami 2 or 6.
When I tried that first time through they just lunged forward preventing the throw.
can't throw fatties in Y3, the trade off is that they don't have guard breaking attacks and if they miss you always have enough time to run behind and kill them
I really want to play this one for the story and all, but God people saying the combat is that bad at times. But I still want to try
instructions unclear, all buttons pressed. quit game and uninstalled after opponent blocked
"Nani"
"Uh"
i'm pretty sure the guy wouldn't have turned around to block if this was the PS3 version in 0:14 . People have accepted a lot of the weird problems the remaster brought but the fact is, these weren't intentional design choices. They're bugs that came with the remaster.
Bro the sussy guy grabbed you at the beginning of the battle. 🇸🇧
Convenient that this is gameplay of the random encounter goons and not one of the many frustrating bosses that don't let you do anything besides quickstep + punch in back.
why does everyone always do the same X X X Y Y combo
Everyone in Japan had steel forearms back then.
u dont have to break their gaurd to grab them btw
0:19 you tied to quickstep Komaki dodge shot didn’t you?
The yakuza game that needed a kiwami remastered! What a missed opportunity thanks RGG.
me who just mashed buttons until their guard was broken for like 1 second and got in a single hit at a time:
Yakuza 3 gives you an incentive to actually use everything you've got.
Is that why only one of the combos (the only one used in this vid) is viable?
I guess the one combo spammed in this video is everything you've got.
Which is one combo, and 3 parries in late game?
Best I can say about Y3 is it taught me to grab more, watch my back, and figure out viable ways to hit bosses. That’s being generous though because the entire game was a slog I regret playing
That's a weird way to say "spam tiger drop"
I finished Kiwami 2 and so I'm heading to 3 next. I am not excited
lmao
Me: *hits an enemy 16 times*
Also enemy holding guard: I have no such weaknesses.
A lot of people spammed rush 3 combo for this game but I always had fun playing legend using all facets of his move set.
I was in fact one of those people
liked because i'm surprised you even have any heat to use
i call this game "grab city 3", because I grab the enemies too fkn much
Yakuza 3 had bussin combat, I actually prefer it over the dragon system
The sooner you get used to fighting without mashing X and Triangle, the better
