I cried!

Anyways, this game is fantastic, another Yakuza banger. The best Kiryu has ever felt and controlled in Dragon Engine, it takes a lot of lessons from the Judgment games and executes them fantastically. The combat is very enjoyable, and the game has a great difficulty curve, and is actually rather challenging! The substories are fun, the music is great, the bosses are solid, the final boss fucking slams and is Y5's final boss if the final boss was actually a good character, the new Agent Style is fun to fiddle around with.

But man, the story is stellar. Some of the most interesting writing and exploration of Kiryu as a character, an absolutely jaw dropping finale and some of the most beautifully emotionally resonant moments in the entire series are right here. If you've been a fan and have played everything, you will be rewarded for it.

I love this fucking series man.
