The end of the "classic" era of the Kiryu saga, a journey I enjoyed a lot. This chapter embrace the new engine and makes a step back in terms of magnitude of content, especially if compared with the previous enourmous Yakuza 5. Honestly I appreciated the more focused scope of this chapter, where the attention of the player stays always on Kiryu on the last adventure of the "classic" saga.
The new location is not so big and doesn't offer too much side content, but it is something different compared to the big cities neighborhood and it's pretty to walk around its street.
I also enjoyed the narrative, even if with the typical over the top moments of the series (sometimes a bit too much "over", like a certain scene "mimicking" american football). A bit cheesy sometime, but I was glued to the screen and it really highlighted Kiryu as the legendary Yakuza.
Also the supporting cast is great, with the new people from Hiroshima that are well charachterized and led me to care about them as much as older entries of the series.
Even if I liked it a lot, I cannot ignore that being published right after Yakuza 0, that offers more content, variety, a better story and a bit more courage in innovating and therefore I cannot give it 5 stars. Still, I can hardly imagine a better ending for this narrative arc for Kiryu.
