Yakuza 0 is the first Yakuza game I've played, and I had a good time. The writing was excellent, the characters were memorable, and it was a great game through and through.

Two complaints: One, I wish the gameplay had more depth. There wasn't much strategy other than just picking the right fighting style for the battle, and as long as you had a ton of healing items on you it was a essentially impossible to lose any of the fights. I understand that this series leans more towards story than gameplay, but it still felt disappointing for me.

Two: I wish there was more of a point to doing the side stories. After a few times getting a healing item or some mid-level equipment as a reward, they began to feel a bit superfluous to me.

Otherwise, the game was good. I enjoyed the ride and you probably will, too.
