This spin-off is really great, so glad it came out to the west.
Good story with good message, but not very special one.
Combat feels great, but requires too much grind, I HATE CRAFTING, fighting with pistol is funny, only brawler is shit.
Side content is mixed, has really cool minigames, some good substories, great unique karaoke, but friendship stuff sucks.
I guess its a remake, but they barely add needed QOL like faster skipping dialogues or better inventory which frustrates me.
Banger OST.

ICHIBAN IS THE GOAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah great story, very fresh one to the series, great message, ending broke me.
I liked the step into jRPG, but the combat is undercooked, too grindy, unbalanced skills, but I still enjoyed it.
Probably my favorite side content in the series including substories and minigames.

This yakuza is the most beautiful one, the best karaoke and ummmmmmmmm... Hirose Family is cool.
Story is mixed with beautiful moments and great characters, but a lot of things feels so wrong.
THE WORST COMBAT IN THE SERIES WITH THE WORST PROGRESSION SYSTEM.
Dragon engine gives some cool QOL changes and makes the game sooooooooooooo beautiful. I wish more yakuza games had voiced substories like 6. Side content was fine. OST is a banger.
I still liked yakuza 6, but could be much better.

BIG BIG AND BIG.
I loved yakuza 5, going from 4 to 5 was shocking. Story was too confusing for me, but it has the best message in the series.
Liked the combat a lot, but progression system was too bloated.
Amazing side content, good substories, a lot of good unique minigames.
Only Tsukimino sucks big cock.

Story so bad to the point its funny, only some cutscenes are good but...
Yakuza 4 gave us multi protags, combat its yakuza 3, but better, playing as Akiyama is so good and more, the best progression system so far, no other yakuza did it better, I liked rooftops and undergrounds mall, side content was ok, but nothing special.
Also for faith.

Maybe combat is a bit frustrating, but it helped me to get better in yakuza series. Great story, but not perfect. Orphanage stuff is great (idk why a lot of fans complains about it). Okinawa is beautiful, but lacks things to do here.
Side content is weak, I don't remember any substory.
I'm not against Kiwami 3, but OG 3 still holds up.

RGG cooked hard with story, characters, plot, action, only the pacing in first half is too slow.
Playing as Yagami is fun, but Dragon Engine is still flawed in this game, unbalanced styles, lack of weapons, still much better than Y6 and kiwami 2.
Detective missions sucks, tailing = suffering.
Side content is meh, only liked drone racing. Substories meh, friendship is okay, but too many friends to farm, Yagami's girlfriends are whatever.
So yeah, story carries.

Yes, finale is peak, but the rest of story is okay or whatever. I liked new characters, but most of them didn't get enough screen time. Most of story is the filler or random stuff that just happens. However I like the castle, fan service stuff for fans in this game and the Takaya Kuroda's performance was probably the best in the series. Still there should be more cinematic cutscenes.
Combat takes good stuff from LJ, but have too many issues to fully enjoy it. Problems with hit detection and juggle. Imo too much focus on using EX heat, and too little on using fun combos and heat actions. But gadgets are fun. Progression system kinda sucks, I don't hate money system, but the game doesn't rewards you for doing main missions, only way is side content.
I love new coliseum and looks customizations for Kiryu. Pocket circuit for 3th time is series is lame. Akame system sucks. Some substories are fine, but please no more funny grandma.
And bring back new game+.
