A REVISED AND IMPROVED SHAREHOLDER MEETING GUIDE! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Wv8Gzq1Jvnc.html * * * OTHER THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW: -When matching employees to properties, select employees that are the same category as the property category. It gives them a boost off the bat. For example, if a property shows a controller in the upper left, only select employees with controller icons to work there. You'll get bigger bonuses to their skill bars when you invest in their training. Low-rank employees only experience a marginal boost when promoted and trained. But SSR employees get a huge expansion, sometimes maxing out them out! So, promoting and training employees can be worth it if you need a boost to upgrade sales volume! But only if they're the matching type! You'll know if there's room to upgrade when you see additional yen symbols on the property page: ¥¥¥ -Note that promotion and training are not the same. Promotion increases the capacity for training. Executive training gives employees the biggest boost to their blue bars. -You can sort employee types by pressing triangle! This is an easy way to figure out which category of employee you have on hand! -You don't need to improve employees' moods one by one, there is an auto-care button that takes care of them all at once! -Always purchase the commercial time slot from Eri when it becomes available. -Optimal End Game Setup from R4MPZY on Reddit (Requires Management Mode DLC): Ichiban Confections; Leader: Tome Kamataki Member: Pulse Fujinami Member: Omelette Mirai Tower: Leader: Majima Goro Member: IT Nagai Member: Poison Mitsuo Jinnai Stadium: Leader: Kamiyama Member: Micho Yamazaki Member: Techno Yuta Media Barter: Leader: Bill Jobs Member: Eri Kamataki Member: Gonzaemon Dianthus: Leader: Koyuki Member: Tsutsui Member: Maeda Red Park: Leader: Director Shouzu Member: Professor Miyazato Member: Machikosu
Hot tip: Rank Omelette (the chicken) to 30 immediately and always bring her into the Shareholders Meetings. She does great damage for the amount of Command Cost
I love this part of the game. I just got to the part where Nick gives you 50 million yen. So far its addicting. Once you learn how to beat the shareholder meetings it gets really fun. Rank 93 so far Edit: Now rank 8 with 1 billion yen
I couldn't sleep and reach rank 1 just now XD It was so easy and risky at the same time, did all without boosted character also, just silver and gold people.
I didnt think i would get addicted to this mini game either! 😅, but once i figured it out i was hooked. Im at #1 but still keep playing trying to maximize my profits. Ive yet to turn all properties to blue but i think im getting close to cracking that part 😁
This is a really hard concept to explain without telling viewers exactly what they need to do step by step. You did a great job, as I move through the minigame I rewatch the video and it starts to make more and more sense. If you watched this video and are still confused, just dive in. You can always back out of the management minigame and drop a hard save at Eri's desk before shareholder meetings or making significant expenditures to your business when in doubt.
simple, easy to understand guide for the business management mode: Go through the Circus sidequests until you beat Clara-chan Hire Clara-chan Mass invest into Ichiban Confections Just use Clara-Chan for the first 2 shareholder's meetings outside of the tutorial or alternatively: Buy the 10$ DLC that adds a bunch of employees that feel like cheating, win instantly with minimal effort
@@ChillKaijuClan I really wish they would make the employees cost 1 billion yen each because they can literally carry endgame properties all on their own.
I barely just discovered these yakuza games and at first i HATED this management thing! But then i started to figure it out and it became a personal challenge for me to succeed lol. Im currently rank 1 but my businesses are not in blue yet, thats why i came here looking for insight to turn my businesses blue but no luck with this video. I did take out loans in the beginning so I could grow faster & the gambles paid off. Also, I disagree with not investing in properties.... you just have to listen to Ichiban's "hunch" sometimes. If he says it sounds like a scam i dont invest, if he's willing to risk it, i invest, if he doesnt give an opinion I risk it (50/50). After a while you will remember which investments failed and which succeeded so you can turn down or approve investments easily since they are recycled.
This minigame feels like a cheat code once you reach rank 1 XD every time you complete a shareholder meeting Ichiban gets 3 mil yen. Trivialises everything else in the game
And the people on the internet that have lied about the false tips to this also refuse to mention that Eri scolds you by dropping your rank! So yes rank drop is a fact and no one on the internet mentions that.
I'm a business masters grad and this minigame confused me lol. Thanks for the guide Edit: Once I learned about the RGB during the shareholders meeting, this minigame was cake lol.
Thanks for watching. I decided that this guide wasn't one of my best and prepared another specifically focused on the minigame. That might be more helpful.
This was the first Yakuza game that I've played, I honestly love it so far, but this business management shit is doing my head in, the least they could've done is make it optional.
It is optional; you just won't unlock one playable character. Unfortunately, I feel this video makes it seem more complicated than it should; you can coast your way through it. Knowing just the things I share here should be enough.
I’d say just take it slow. You’ll naturally improve. The hardest part is early on up to the first shareholder meeting. After that point you’ll not have a problem and the money it gets you will help you through the rest of the main game. Fantastic mini game. Love it.
I was beginning to absolutely love this game until this part right here. I think they need to have options on if people wanna go through this or not instead of just making it a part of the game experience. Not everyone wants to get into this lol
I spent countless hours and reloading my save trying to figure out how this game mode works but I kept going in the red every time i open for business. Managed to reach rank 100 after watching this guide 👍
Been playing Like a Dragon and just started the business minigame. Successfully beat my first share holder meeting. Thank you for this guide. It was invaluable in helping me make sense of some of the mechanics. On a related note, thank you in general for your guides to the Yakuza games. Ive been plowing through them and they have been quite helpful.
I am at Rank #3 and seems easy even with only the rare employees. I think the share hold part is super important, I am so lucky to have the kid that has 600 persuasion from one of the side-story. Him, Grandma and Chicken hard carry.
I wish there was a video on how to get back from wrecking the businesses by taking another loan and making a mistake on hiring the new higher ranked people thinking it would earn you more money.
At first I thought it was easy Then it got normal Then it got hard Then I got in dept Then I somehow paid the bank load by selling everything and leaving only my 2 managers guys It's very possible to get your ass out of the dept or if you lose income Just get 4 people and 4 properties and it worked perfectly for me
So you've only got 4 businesses running? Did u make it to blue? 😯I got all highest earning businesses running, currently have 19,726,884,030 but businesses are still not blue! 🥲 im guessing i need to figure out which employees maximize which businesses. So far I've only got Mirai tower and Danthius maxed out.
Which properties did you buy? I just started the mini game. I'm at about rank 131 after my first share holder meeting. I would like to reach rank 1. Any advice?
Wait Loans are super important in the Top 20 and Top 50! You should always get one by then and buy the Cat business which pays so smoothly back. Trust me, it helps so much especially when you can buy adds that basically pays double the loan. BTW only get the Bank! 10 million one has been the most helpful imo. Rn I am earning 192k per business week and I want to see how to improve that with specific employees as that’s they difficult part to do when trying to finish this game mode by Chapter 7-10.
only do loans when you get a commercial! than bam you can pay it back immediately, if you get to big of a loan that you cant pay back or font have enough properties to cover your loan your going to end up losing everything
@@NekoValtz Some of the items I might have also mentioned are found in the pinned comment. One of the things that's unfortunate about RU-vid is the inability to upload revised videos to replace the previous. I could consider creating updated guides in the future, and for some of my videos I will probably have to, but I will probably not revisit this minigame. The topic has started to dominate my whole channel.
Is it possible to get yourself into a hole that you can't get out of in the business simulation? I'm only making 800K per business day, and it's two quarters until Ogata demands results. Polygon claims that you can clear 3 mill with the starting employees and resources just by leveling up the senbei shop as much as possible, but that has not been my experience.
Upgrade your properties. Ichiban Confections alone should be bringing in like 3 million, then the others are like 1 million. Eventually you're just pressing next next next, beating the share holder meeting and raking in 10's of millions.
my thing is how do you get your property where when you run the "open for business" minigame your running through 3 stacks on each business instead of just one. I see you got cats servant up to 122M yen.. was that a combination of upgrades as well as assigning certain employees?
Ichiban Confections is the only thing i hate about this game, And not to mention the people on the internet that make false tips about Ichiban Confections and falsely saying you can hire just as manager managers as you want when that is bullshit as it only let's you hire 10 people as managers.
Nah dog shit easy once you figure it out. First thing you need to do is focus on Ichihan Confections and max that out. Don't hire employees or anything keep the 3 OG you got. You be making money real quick like 3 million yen per run.
Why the hell did you NOT talk about the weakness system for the shareholder meetings?! It's KEY to opening up the shareholders for damage (I can't believe what i'm typing right now looking at it all again) I noticed in the footage you used you wasted a lot of time breaking them down one shield at a time when hitting them with their weakness breaks all 3 shields at once.
I created a supplemental guide about the shareholder meetings and pinned the comment hoping most people that watched this video would see it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Wv8Gzq1Jvnc.html There is also an more comprehensive guide of Like a Dragon with more details, it's my latest upload.
@Chill Kaiju Clan 🤭 u just need to listen to Ichiban's cues when u get an investment proposal! Its worked for me thus far. There's a very high risk investment of 442,000,000, on that one I think Ichiban wasn't too sure, but I took the risk anyhow and it paid off! (The investment is from a npc character u find in the streets). The supermarket investment is no good. The vacation property is good as well as the arcade investment if I remember correctly. 😀
@@dantesos7564 Ive changed my position on this since the time I've made the video. I found that some of the investments can have very decent returns, so yeah, you're right. 🙂
I’m annoyed that there wasn’t a proper hold my hand walkthrough for the shareholders meeting so i at least knew what a good meeting looked like. The game had been very good at this up to this point so I don’t get why they wouldn’t do something for a thing as complicated is running a business.
Thanks for watching. Here's a proper run-through of all the shareholder-meeting considerations: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Wv8Gzq1Jvnc.html
I wish this review was more direct on what to do specifically instead of just general pointers. Also I’m very lost with the mini game at the moment because I fucked up early on and I have no idea how to recover
Charisma is how much damage they deal with, and Tenacity is how much “health” they have during battle. Tenacity might not be as critical for you to pay attention to, as once you understand the system, you're not as likely to take damage. Check my other video on Shareholder meetings for better clarity. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Wv8Gzq1Jvnc.htmlsi=MUbCNwHSNApzc-wI
You might try experimenting a little so you can get the feel of it. After a while, it might some of the advice in the video might start to make sense. Plenty of players have been able to complete the minigame, only guessing about what to do.
That's true - in my experience I had before with those, I would fail every single time. Then a friend suggested that I just go for it and I made a killing. Maybe better advice for this is not to invest until you have so much that it's a trivial amount of money to lose.
I wish i didn't have to do this to get Eri. I really don't like this mini game. It's boring af and I would rather have any other kind. My idea would be business mini games that are unique to each character. Ichiban - Counselor, Hair Stylist Nanba - Chef, EMS Adachi - Seurity Guard, Bouncer Saeko - Hostess, Idol
If this got me money outside the mini game to buy the overpriced weapons and armor I would be happy to go through all this.. but it doesn't seem worth it past recruiting Eri.
Well, if you do complete it, you will get an easy 3 million yen per additional round if you decide to play in the future. Could be an easy way to build up cash if you rather do that than save-scumming casino wins.
I believe that you should be able to pay it off. I don't know that you can ever be so far behind in the minigame that you can't catch up - but feel free to swing by my stream on Sunday if you're still having trouble, and I'll do my best to answer any questions.
what ones to really buy will give me back income i put in to it as i start maxing it out or do i wait untill giveing Cat's Servant on rank 50 and wait At rank 20, Waipu Production say give a lot more of a boon and At rank 10, Danthus At rank 1, Mirai Tower just got pass rank 100 so i mosrt been needing more profit and shop i have now is max out
The one thing I can't figure out and that no guide covers, is, am I supposed to put people who match colors with the according business? Eri is a red unit, should I put her in a red property? Does that actually matter at all?
I just read your comment again. I don't believe it matters, just their base stats make a difference. Employee colors come into play during the shareholder meetings, but I don't know that they matter at all as management of particular properties.
@@ChillKaijuClan But each employee has 2 colors, the share holder color and the business color. So eri is a blue share holder color, but red business. There must be a reason for those.
@@Animedingo I see now, yes you're right. If you place someone in a management position with an icon that matches their type, say a character with a controller, for a property with a controller, then their blue bars will get a boost, an added section of white.
@@ChillKaijuClan OH really it's just management and it boosts the blue bars? That's really helpful to know. It makes it so I don't have to force awkward set ups of staff
@@Animedingo I'm wrong again. Yes, it appears if employees level up in a business they have experience in, i.e. matching color, they can get more substantial boosts. It appears that the ranking of the employee, from SR to SSR makes a difference in that regard.
i was playing the game steadily, then got to some locked room where i could not leave, could not do anything, only 5 employees, always ranked wrong, no exit of the single page. no exit of the room, just locked up the game and wasted entire game with this trap. what a waste. Kept getting 'not arranged employees optimal" and was an endless loop. Never buy or play this game. this ruins it.
I don't understand why my expected profits/projected results are so bad, like it's wayyyy negative. How do I get a positive projected amount? I'm tryna make money but I'm losing
Hey Trevor, one thing you might keep in mind is you don't actually have to have 3 employees for every business, it will continue to operate with 1. Another thing to check on is upgrades, can you improve the business on its own, so all the product, service, and notability bars are blue? If after you're in the green on every business, the shareholders are still displeased with the amount you brought in, don't beat yourself up too much. They're hard to please.
Heres a question I had as someone starting on the business minigame. Lets say I wanted to keep things simple for myself. By sticking with just Ichiban Confections for a while. Just leveling it up and leveling up my starting employees. Than once i feel my profits are guranteed, moving on to buy more properties at my lesiure. Is such an approach viable in this minigame?
It makes it consistent that you’ll make the target profit every time or more. If there’s any bars in red you’ll more than likely make less than what’s targeted
Yo can u help me out my expected sales is in the red for the main store ......... i know this is late , but its free in psn so i got it an now im stuck watching random vides cuz i cant find a step by step for this to stay in the green
Exactly - in trying to make a detailed guide so people could make the business decisions on their own, I ended up making it sound more complicated than it should. I, too, skimmed through it originally with a very basic understanding of what was going on.
@@Powerjuicer360 Glad you found it. All my guides have time stamps to find the specific items you're looking for. They're labeled in the notes, and you can also find them at the bottom of the viewer if you roll over the bar at the bottom. They're good places to check when you need something particular.
Im getting so beyond pissed off at this. I must have messed it up when i first played cause im in the negatives. I got barely any money to do anything and i keep losing ranks after opening business
