First Kiryu game with good Dragon Engine combat (still a bit to refine, idk how Yagami one's perfect but Kiryu is still a bit meh), good story that acts as a bridge showing what Kiryu did between Yakuza 6 and his appearence in Like a Dragon. I thought they would bring up the cancer thing in this game but I guess everything will be explained in Like a Dragon 8. A bit too short, finished in circa 20 hours doing the majority of the side content, but I expected that. The substories where well organized, the only thing that bothered me was the fact that you had to go to Akane to start the missions, having the option of starting them from your phone would have been better. The final boss was unexpected, I really thought it was going to be Nishitani III [loved the character btw, he was so strange in all his mannerism, very reminescent of Nishitani from Yakuza 0 (when I remembered where I heard the name I was so happy) and Majima a bit, since Majima himself based the act of the Mad Dog from Nishitani, just less unhinged] but I guess I was wrong. the actual final boss was okay, very Yazuka 5 I would say. Overall a good yakuza game, now I just have to wait for LaD 8 to come out.
I was about to forgot: a big fuck you to the people that were saying that Kiryu became a crybaby from the trailer that we saw months ago. I really hope you play the entire game and get WHY he was crying.
Throught Japan and America, he alone is the Dragon of Dojima
