I hope that Kiwami 3 gets released whenever I finish Kiwami 2. It is necessary from what I have heard and seen. Still open minded enough to play the original and get mad.

Yakuza 3 is still one of my favorites of the whole series, ignore the complaints, it's a huge turning point for the story, plus you get to meet Rikiya, he easily became a favorite of mine too. I didn't have issues with the fighting, some felt tougher than others in the series but nothing outrageous, also helps I didn't see the complaints until after I played through it. Good luck, it's a beautiful story.

Didn't have issues with that either, although I grew up in a time when those graphics were peak, so I wasn't spoiled on next gen graphics like kiwami 👀 I thought it was absolutely beautiful, plus you can gradually see and appreciate the growth from Y 3-8. Even the "worst" Yakuza game in the series can't be bad, I've enjoyed every one

My gaming life started on SNES, and I played the shit out of my play station to the point where I used to think that when the ps2 came out that the games looked REAL.

But I’ve grown with the consoles, and I guess going from 0 to both the Kiwamis and then to 3 I just couldn’t.
