The most UNDERRATED Yakuza game might have changed my life. It's funny how much I feel like this Yakuza game is one of the most overhated, when in my opinion it's one of the best. Then again, I want to say that this is subjective and that not everyone has to like this Yakuza game, and that's true. Why? Because this Yakuza game doesn’t stand out for its story or its plot twists. It stands out for its characters, their convictions, their dreams, and its deeply moving and personal philosophy of life. I really feel like this Yakuza is completely different from the others. It’s more of a personal game that pushes you to grow and conveys a powerful message: A dream gives meaning to our lives, but it’s not the fulfillment of that dream that matters most. It’s the path we choose to take to reach it. Anyway, getting back to the game itself, if I really had to point out the negatives, and I’ll keep it quick and simple: • Way too many enemy encounters • The game is very long and can drag on due to substories, side content, mini-games, etc. • Imperfect PC version: especially at resolutions higher than 1080p, subtitles and pre-rendered cutscenes can appear blurry and pixelated due to low resolution. Also the game has a chance of crashing immediately upon launch, which is pretty annoying. The only workaround is to launch the game in Steam offline mode, then reconnect to Steam afterward. Please fix this RGG I beg you • Antagonists are much more memorable than in Yakuza 4, but not as memorable as in other games in the series • Shinada is a great character (much better than Tanimura), but his gameplay leaves something to be desired • Enemies tend to block and counter your attacks a lot, which sometimes makes them a pain to kill because you end up relying on weapon counters and heat actions, making the fights less enjoyable and satisfying. But despite its flaws, I haven’t regretted playing it at all, and surprisingly, contrary to what one might think, for now I’d rank it below 0 (which is my number one Yakuza game) on my list. I sincerely think one of the reasons this game is so overhated is that, when you dive into the entire Yakuza series like a marathon, you can experience what’s called “Yakuza fatigue.” Then, when you’re faced with a game that has SO MUCH content, you get discouraged and just want to rush through it all and move on to the next one. But no! Yakuza 5 is one of the games most deserving of your time and investment. The game’s content is massive, and when you think about it, just in terms of value for money, at $20 it’s such a steal. Don’t rush through Yakuza 5. Take the time to appreciate it for what it’s worth, and you’ll understand why, for me, it’s one of the most underrated Yakuza games and, above all, one of the best. Is it normal to have feelings for Akiyama even though I'm not gay?
“Oh, you thought driving a taxi was my actual job? Nah, I just do it for fun. I’m actually the fourth chairman of a yakuza clan.” Trying to binge the entire Yakuza series back-to-back was definitely a terrible idea. By the time I reached Yakuza 5, I was already getting genuinely tired of the constant street fights and the way the game keeps forcing its admittedly impressive, but not always welcome, minigames into the main story. Even if you try to rush through the campaign, the game simply refuses to let you. Everything seems designed to slow you down: random battles, "progression walls", mandatory minigames, searching for specific items, and running around trying to find the right location. Some conversations also feel like they go in circles, repeating the exact same point three or four times before finally moving on. In my opinion, the game is far too long. It is absolutely enormous. The main story alone took me almost 30 hours, and that was while ignoring nearly every side story and optional minigame. That said, the plot is much bigger, more interesting, and even more convoluted than in the previous games. There are five playable protagonists, and I was genuinely curious to see how all this madness would eventually come together. Every time I felt ready to quit, the game introduced an interesting new character or a surprising plot twist, forcing me to push forward. Whenever it seemed like the finale was finally about to begin, the game just kept going. And going. And then going a little longer. By the end, everything is explained in painstaking detail, so you probably will not be left with many major questions about the story. But damn, I was completely exhausted by the time I finished it. As I mentioned earlier, my biggest mistake was playing so many Yakuza games in a row without taking a break. Because of that, I finished Yakuza 5 feeling more irritated and drained than satisfied. Still, I cannot honestly call it a bad game. So this is ultimately a thumbs-up rather than a thumbs-down. P.S. I also encountered a very strange bug on the Steam Deck. During some cutscenes, the game would suddenly play dialogue from a completely different scene. Fortunately, I do not understand Japanese yet, so I probably avoided some accidental spoilers. It still added another layer of frustration to an already exhausting experience.
Recommended, but be prepared for a very long journey Yakuza 5 is probably my least favorite entry in the series, yet I still think it's a good game and worth playing if you're a fan of the franchise. One of the highlights for me was the variety of side content. The taxi missions were surprisingly fun and offered a good mix of activities, keeping things fresh throughout Kiryu's chapter. Unfortunately, the dialogue-heavy missions didn't appeal to me nearly as much, and those make up the majority of the content. On the positive side, Fukuoka was a great addition to the series. It's a beautiful city to explore and provided a welcome change of scenery compared to the locations we've seen before. The side stories for the different protagonists are incredibly extensive. In fact, some of them are so large and detailed that they almost feel like standalone games within Yakuza 5. This contributes to the game's massive amount of content, but it also adds to its biggest issue: length. The game is enormous. My biggest complaint is the Coliseum progression. Unlocking new tournaments requires earning large amounts of points, which means repeating the same tournaments over and over again. The grind feels completely unnecessary and turns what could have been a fun side activity into a tedious chore. The combat is still enjoyable, but some Heat Actions overstay their welcome. Certain animations are so long that they become repetitive after you've seen them a few times. There were moments where I'd get into a fight with random thugs and end up watching a 15-second cinematic of Akiyama kneeing someone in the face. It looks cool the first few times, but it gets old fast. Completionists should also be warned: 100% completion is easily one of the worst completion experiences in the series. Expect to spend well over 100 hours if you're aiming for all achievements, especially because of the Hall of Famer trophy. The game forces you to engage with virtually every piece of content, making the process extremely grindy and, at times, simply not fun. And yet, despite all of these complaints, I still found myself enjoying the experience. That's the magic of Yakuza. I was always motivated to explore the world, meet new characters, and discover their stories and struggles. That sense of curiosity and immersion remains one of the greatest strengths of the series, and Yakuza 5 still delivers it in abundance. Overall, Yakuza 5 is a good game with fun combat, memorable characters, and an incredible amount of content. However, its excessive length, heavy grinding requirements, and exhausting completion checklist prevent it from reaching the heights of the best entries in the franchise. Recommended, but make sure you're ready for the commitment.
Yakuza 5 is the Y0's ancestor and truly the only game that could rival Y0 in how good it is as Y0 type of entry. Y0 is just a perfectly put together yakuza entry. Story, gameplay, combat, it's just chef's kiss, but yakuza 5 is where they went crazy and experimented with everything new in the series and a lot of Y5's content inspired Y0. It's not perfect, some aspects really suck, some are better than Y0, Y5 is a playground where they learned how to Yakuza 0, and damn it they made an exceptionally good mess of a game. Definitely worth trying out also dont buy Y3 kiwami
