It's good to have one last RGG romp as Kir- I mean Joryu. The way it covers events leading up to Yakuza 7 manage to be just as gripping and very well done. I really liked this shorter RGG experience. Crazy to think this was made in 6 months. The story was significantly better than I expected. I was very apprehensive of Kiryu's return but they manage to not only really justify it, but have a very heartwarming follow-up to the events of 6. I do think it's padded a little bit with the Akame network grind but it's not a huge deal for me at least because I was gonna do all the requests anyway. All in all, this left me very pleasantly surprised. I would love it if RGG did more of these shorter games with other characters.
Fantastic evolution on the first two games. While there's some aspects of the story I don't like, I think it fits well with the others in terms of character development. The gameplay is improved ten fold and it's incorporated into the story in really cool ways. Swinging was always the best part of the first two games but they improve it here significantly by adding an option to turn down the swing assist, increasing the momentum and skill ceiling vastly. It makes the game much more enjoyable.

This is one of the best games ever made. EVERYTHING in this game is fucking cool. I cannot stress enough how happy the fact that this game is back makes me. Please try it. The campaign is probably the best first person shooter campaigns out there and the multiplayer consists of matches that are ALWAYS as cool as the trailers.
