Need help with Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's Substory 28? This guide walks you through the director choice, the semitruck dodging minigame, and the rewards you can get!
Alright, so you're looking to tackle Substory 28, huh? This one's called "An Authentic Blockbuster Guide," and it's all about helping out that familiar bully director from Substory 15. Before you even think about starting this, make sure you've wrapped up Substory 15: Samurai, May We Walk Together? and Substory 27: The Pursuit of Realism. You can do Substory 15 back in Chapter 3, but Substory 27 needs to be done in Chapter 4. Once those are out of the way, still in Chapter 4, head over to Sunset Park. You'll find the director chilling on a bench west of the Palekana Orphanage. He's got a new movie idea brewing, and this time he wants to go old-school with the stunts, which is a total 180 from his usual style.
- 1The Director's Name: The director needs a name for his movie's stunt double, and you'll have three choices. The key here is authenticity! The correct name you need to pick is Bony Kashiwa. Get this right, and Ichiban gets a nice +20 boost to his Intellect stat. After you pick the name, you'll call him up, and he'll arrange to meet James. They'll decide to team up, and you'll get a choice: go with them right away or meet them later.
- 2Meeting Up Later (Optional): If you choose to meet them later, don't worry. Just head to the southeastern corner of the Anaconda Shopping Center (outside, not inside). Look for the assistant, chat with them, and then let the directors know you're all set for the shoot.
- 3The Stunt Minigame: Now for the fun part – the stuntman minigame! This is pretty much identical to the one in Substory 27, but with bigger threats. You've got 40 seconds to make it down the street while dodging semitrucks. There are three lanes, and you can see the trucks coming. Your only way to dodge is by using the left analog stick to swerve left or right. Pushing down on the stick slows you down, while pushing up speeds you up. Warning: Getting hit by a truck or running out of time means you'll have to start the whole sequence over.
- 4Lives and Difficulty: You get three lives for this minigame. If you use them all up, you'll have to try again. The directors might even make you heal up first! If you fail all three lives, they'll offer you an easier route with fewer trucks, but be warned: this will cut down on your rewards. This minigame can be a bit trickier than the last one because these semitrucks are much larger than the cars you dodged before.
- 5Memorizing the Pattern: The good news is there's a pattern to the trucks, and they'll come in the same order every time. If you stick with the original difficulty (no easing up on the trucks), you can eventually memorize this pattern and nail it.
- If you manage to finish the minigame without choosing the easier option (meaning you faced the original number of trucks), you'll be rewarded with a Modified Rocket Launcher. This is a one-use item but packs a serious punch, doing double the damage of a regular rocket launcher.
- If you decide to take the easier route with fewer trucks, you'll still get a reward: a regular Rocket Launcher. It's still a one-use item, but it's a solid consolation prize.
- Remember, both rocket launchers are single-use items, so save them for a tough boss fight or a situation where you really need the extra firepower!
- Modified Rocket Launcher (if you complete the original difficulty) OR Rocket Launcher (if you choose the easier option)
