The problems that I have with the progression system are heavily outweighed by my enjoyment of the story, characters, music, and combat. Also, this game has the best fishing minigame in the series.

I do, however, despise how obsessed the series has become with constantly making calls backs and references to this game.

I love Majima in this game, I sure hope he is as good in the other games

The perfect start to an amazing franchise.
