I know this game's story gets a bad rep, but overall this is easily one of my favourite entries in the series.

Everything from Yakuza 3 is improved, with better visuals, more protagonists, better combat and just general better everything for me.

However, Kiryu and Daigo should not have been in this game at all, they do absolutely nothing and feel as if they are there just to be on the front cover. If anything they make the story worse because of that, Kiryu should not have appeared outside of that minor cameo in Saejima's section. He's also just dumb in this game, why the fuck does he forgive Hamazaki? And how the hell did he not know who Saejima was?

The worst part of this game's plot is the obvious rubber bullets thing, which was only done so we don't play as a murderer and yeah it's dumb, like Joji Kazama levels of dumb.

I still love this game though, everything about it is great barring the previously mentioned points.

FUCK THE FINAL MUNAKATA BATTLE!
