While the game is the shortest Yakuza/LaD game ever made it still has the charms of the previous games with it's wacky substories, minigames and a gripping story.
The story in my opinion is very good with its very charming cast of characters, Kiryu especially is exceptionally written. While I loved the last 2 chapters the fact that the first 3 chapters being basically padding at best still bothers me. Still I think last 2 chapters has some of the best story moments in a Yakuza game. The fight against the final boss was excellent and the motivations of said boss were great and very fitting for the games theme but I have a issue with his power level. And yes I cried during the final scene.
Combat wise sadly this is one of the weaker games in the series. I dont know how RGG went from Lost Judgment's fluid combat to this clunky combat system. Also the super armor of enemies doesn't help.
Overall I think the game is definitely worth playing if you are into LaD but 50$ is a tad expensive for it's length and scope.
