I bought a brothel, put a literal CHICKEN named OMELETTE as it's sole employee. It's racking in millions, most repeated customer comment is "girls here are so pretty" I knocked out a homeless guy by slapping him with stack of money This game also has 2 half naked dudes with huge back tattoos fighting on a rooftop so it is, by definition, a proper Yakuza game. yakuza/10

Yakuza LAD was the easiest 100% from all yakuzas I played so far, you don't need to grind Japanese chess or Mahjong or some other random board game. Just like other yakuza games, you have to sit through it for few hours before it picks up a bit. You can also start from this game if never played other yakuza games. No need to know anything about other 6 games. 9/10

Hands down one of the best JPRG's I have ever played. The music, the characters, the story, the mini-games and the combat system all are designed to perfection. The joy this game has brought me is something that I have not experienced since I first played Square-Enix's Final Fantasy X for the first time. I have since played through the story twice (once on PC + PS5). It is without a doubt one of the best games SEGA has ever developed and is 100% worthy of the many awards it has garnered since its release. Yakuza: Like a Dragon is a masterpiece in every sense of the word!

you play as an autistic japanese dude called ichiban who views the world through the lens of a dragon quest game to cope with life and the general PTSD of being betrayed by the yakuza, who on his way through tokyo to get his revenge and discover the truth finds other like minded schizophrenic down and out friends to indulge in his delusions and tag along for the adventure, sing karaoke, pummel the locals with traffic cones and gamble their collective money away all while being essentially homeless it's a blast

This game is currently in the Humble Choice for May 2024, and this is part of my coverage of the bundle. If you are interested in the game and it's before June 4th, 2024, consider picking up the game as part of the current monthly bundle. The JRPG edition This is the sixth title in the Yakuza series on Humble Monthly or Choice, but I’ll repeat it all, this is one of my favorite series. This game has a deadly serious story, with light-hearted side stories, g. Great characters, an interesting city, and great pacing. Every game is entertaining and they all have a ton of content. Like a Dragon though is a bit different. This time instead of Kiryu Kazuma, we follow Ichiban Kasuga. He is almost a drop-in replacement at times, but that works. However he sees the entire world as an RPG and thus instead of a brawler, the combat is now a turn-based RPG. I wasn’t sure if this would work, but it does. Still, I feel like this is almost a leftover story from the original game at times. This feels a little longer than the original games, and honestly, I prefer the brawler combat to the RPG, not that I hate this, but if you dislike turn-based RPGs, this probably won’t change your mind, even though everything else is perfect. Pick this up if you’re a fan of the series or a fan of JRPGs. I do mean that for JRPG fans, outside of Yakuza 0, this is the best game to start with, and if you love JRPGs, this will be excellent. This is truly one of my favorite series, and this was a breath of fresh air for it.
