is a spectacular backstory to kiryu, majima, and especially nishiki. theres a lot of issues i have with the overall narrative but who gives a shit, i can ignore that with so many gutwrenching scenes and amazing characterization. kuze is genuinely the best character in this franchise and i dont think i would like this game as much without him. theres some weird inconsistencies with kiryu and majima somewhat idolizing and basing themselves on people they really have no reason to but they write around it in a way that at least makes a bit of sense so i can't say i mind.

and remember, real yakuza use a gamepad
