The gameplay has the symptoms of something churned out in six months but the writing is solid and it has possibly one of the BEST villains within the series. also, if you don't want it taking up EIGHTY FUCKING GIGS on your drive, delete the infinite wealth demo located in the files (its runtime2 lol), and then find a mod that replaces all the 4k cabaret minigame videos with still pngs, you now have a game that is only 40 gigs in size. this game also has watase in the peter griffin fit if that helps

Bold decision to let us play a completely new character, totally unrelated to previous stories. This Joryu guy is slowly growing on me, i wish to know where his hatred for doors stems from, why does he feel the need to punch them open? Such mysterious and complex character, leagues above that Kiryu guy.

Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name felt like a true continuation after the events of Yakuza 6: The Song of Life and I was very happy with the experience as a whole. The game is much shorter than previous Yakuza titles, but I didn't feel like it was lacking anything — it was the perfect length and didn't overstay its welcome, the combat was fun, the story was good, and it felt very reminiscent of the older games in the way it presented itself. The mini games are always enjoyable, but I loved the addition of the Coliseum and putting my team together. I didn't buy the legendary fighter pack, as it's not required to win those battles, and I was still pleasantly surprised by some of the familiar faces throughout the series that joined me. The game itself didn't feel too grindy in my opinion, I actually thought it felt a bit easier than usual...basically everything you do requires money, lots of it, and you can earn more than you'll even know what to do with just by completing the Coliseum fights. I also made it a point to complete all of the available requests through the Akame Network before progressing the story, which I'm sure contributed to it feeling less 'grindy' overall, but I thoroughly enjoyed them because they reminded me a lot of some of the side quests you'd find in Yakuza 0 or Kiwami . The quirkiness and humor were definitely there! As for the story, it was so much better than I expected. It tied all of the events from Yakuza 6 and Like a Dragon (7) , even the transition into Infinite Wealth , together so perfectly. The ending had me in tears...having played all of the previous games that led up to that moment was just an incredible, yet emotional, feeling. I loved every minute of it.

You need to know the entire lore behind the Yakuza games before playing this game, and this is the only game where I say it is mandatory to know the lore. Yakuza Like a Dragon you can go in the game without knowing anything and you'll have a good experience but not with this game. This game has one of the best combat styles in the entire series, pocket racer, and pretty good sub stories. The ending is so good it will break you and make you wanna jump off a roof.

If you've not played the previous Yakuza games then don't buy this! Buy Yakuza 0 and if you love that you're in for a treat - there's so many games to play before you get here and by the time you get here the price for the game will be much lower!
