Maybe it's not its fault. Maybe the problem here was being released after Zero and meant to be played after Zero... I don't know. But they managed to deliver a package so similar to Zero on the outside but so different on the inside. Comparisons aside, Yakuza Kiwami is an okay remake with an okay story, a not that fun side content overall and a kind of clunky combat for some reason. There are too many fire weapon enemies especially in the latter parts and you have to grind quite a bunch to ignore some issues. And I don't want to talk about its rhythm problems. It's needed for the Kiryu saga but I was really disappointed.
