Ok, this one's a quick one for those who don't like starting over every single time in each Yakuza title. I for one love the new Dragon Engine, but I DESPISE to death the whole '5 types of EXP' and such... so here's a NEAR maxed starter save with some fun hacks/modifications thrown in.
Features:
Max money (ok, I spent a bit
)
Max EXP
All stats maxed and Limit broken (S rank)
Almost all moves and Heat actions gained
All Combat Manuals/Primers read/learnt
All Lifestyle upgrades obtained
Best Gear/Equipment (War God Talisman+Parry Talisman+Four Gods Beads) equipped x2 sets
All Locker keys obtained x90
All Casino/Gambling cheat items obtained x99
Best Weapons (Dragon-SP gun, Photon Blade RG, Rocket Launcher, etc) in Inventory
9999x Majima Construction tickets
Ok, now there's a few things to note:
1) Stats are maxed as far as possible in the beginning area where you are still looking for Daigo. The game is saved inside the Mahjong parlor on Tenkaichi St. Beyond all the Combat Manuals/Primers/Secret Books upgrades being applied, the rest of the upgrades/moves/etc are Story gated and you have to progress the story to get the rest. Everything that can be gotten has been gotten, including the Ultimate Essence which normally requires you to beat Jo Amon first and take his combat manual.
2) All locker keys have been obtained and you have 90 of each... but naturally you can only open each locker once per playthrough. The 90x keys simply means you can play through repeatedly and keep opening them each play without having to re-find them all again. If you do find some, well, it'll add to the count. Likewise with the gambling cheat items you have 99 of each. I tried to make them infinite usage but eh, that didn't work :/
3) There are two sets of the 'best equipment' ie the War God Talisman, Parry Talisman and the Four Gods Beads in this save... this is legitimately impossible to achieve. One set is equipped on Kiryu and the other set is in the Item box storage. The 2nd set is hopefully usable on Majima when you eventually switch to him. I was TRYING to put the 2nd set in his inventory, but couldn't work out how.
Aside from the above, the save is as 'maxed' as you're probably going to get without being in New Game Plus/Premium New Game and is saved on Hard.
The save was made on the EU PSN version... For some reason the save folder ID is CUSA10634 which is the same as the US one so I'm going to assume its all one version. If it doesn't work on the US game then welp... remember this was made on the EU version.

UPDATE: Sorry, the original 'starter' save is gone... So I've uploaded a Premium Adventure save that you can use to start New Game+ with all of the above features intact and more. All abilities have been obtained and fully maxed... There pretty much is nothing left to do... But eh, this'll make some of you happy
