A true masterpiece to start off the journey of the new protagonist, every story element handled perfectly to give it that proper kickstart, with some fairly clear parallels to Yakuza 1 story

The combat might put some people off, and it has some issues, but nothing very big. It works well enough, and i never lost or had any big issues even if something funky happened, like a move not hitting because some debris happened to be in the way, or if an AoE didn't hit every enemy because they walked off while my guy was on the way there

Goes in my top 3 Yakuza games easily. It's up there with Y0 and YK2

You're a total ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nerd Ichiban, and I love you for it. Keep at it
10/10
