If you want to convince Ben that you're human, all you have to do is have teeth.

Really enjoyed this series, thanks duders! Agree with the comments that I'd love to see Alex take the sticks on Kiwami. No offense to Dan, I think he did just fine, but he's obviously not that into the gameplay, and plus now we've seen Vinny run one with Shenmue and Dan run this one, so it would be good variety.

Probably not worth playing through all the business stuff for the final stream, but it would be cool if you looked up some of it on YouTube or whatever -- there's some fun stuff in there, especially the final rewards for each.

Alex is getting fierce at this game.

For the club, always run with 8 girls, don't hold back on running a full roster just because you don't want to pay them -- you'll make more money keeping more tables occupied.

Also forget these clowns telling you not to do the businesses stuff, you make so much money,and the sidestories of beating the Five BIllionaires or five clubs are worth it, as is the final reward. Although I support doing them in supplemental episodes as you say so people will stop being upset about it.

Some neat stuff about this game (mostly taken from comments on the Steam forums since I haven't finished it yet):

It apparently has multiple endings, including different people having murdered Dekker

There's a hidden "insanity" index depending on how many responses you've gotten (or which ones?) which can change the responses you get and the endings.

You may have noticed that one of the responses they got was different from the subtitle. It was intentional. In fact, if you play that response back again from the list, it then matches the subtitle. There's some alternate responses like that, some of which are tied into the insanity index. Spoiler if you didn't catch it: Claire says "after David died" but the subtitle/replayed response says "after what happened to David."

I started playing this over the weekend and like my first thought was "I hope GBE Quick Looks this."

@alex If you go back to the secret password quest guy, he sells some fish that you can give to the sushi guy. Saves you having to deal with at least some fishing!

Blessed by a random Jeff+Vinny QL on a Thursday!

I love how Dan went from initially sounding like he hated the club minigame to loving it and doing the strip club DJ voice. It was one of my favorite dumb parts of this game, it's like a slightly creepy Diner Dash. Also the Majima thumbs-up video when he brings the request to a platinum girl is one of my favorite animations in the game, it's so spot-on.

This is great and oddly soothing. I feel like Vinny should have a jeweler's loupe for this.
