Fun game Good combat Engaging and overly dramatic story Lots of minigames and side quests Definitely a Yakuza game

Oct. 2024

I love this game and everything RGG Studio puts out,but wow,the grind in ishin is next level.I usually go all-in and try to 100% their games, but this one made me rethink that I found myself wanting to stop because I didn't want to go crazy and lose my love for the series. It's a fun game, Not fun for 100% enjoyer since you can actually lose your braincell.If you reading this and actually 100% in this game,you get my respect.

What other games allow you to make friends with a cat in a public bath? If you like the Yakuza/Like a Dragon games, you'll enjoy this. - Use the free "Waterdrop Katana" DLC sword if you want to skip the somewhat grindy crafting system - Don't plan on using the Brawler fighting style. Swordsman and Wild Dancer are way more effective

I played Like a Dragon: Ishin on PC, I watched Shogun The Mini Series on FX and now I wait for Ghost of Tsushima to come out. The best spring ever!

Jan. 2024

Very grind heavy. A bit slower than other LAD games. Storyline is quite difficult to follow for a simple mind like mine. I appreciate what they did with some characters, giving them more development than their mainline ones, such as Saejima (Nagakura Shinpachi). I understand it's simply likeness characters, but appreciated nontheless. Combat is directly similar to their old engine, with it being very crisp and sharp, albeit the trooper cards are strange and add weird elements to the game. I understand that it's normally outlandish, but these completely remove immersion from certain parts of the game. They would do better if isolated to bandit missions. Fun fact: when it was suggested by Sega America, the head director of RGG facepalmed at the suggestion because it was so outlandishly western. Great game if you are a JRPG grind person.
