This review contains spoilers

Yakuza 8 is in essence the final sendoff to Kiryu. It combines everything which has made this franchise great and not so great. As such, Infinite Wealth manages to reach very high highs as well as falling to very familiar lows.

The gameplay is an improvement across the board compared to Y7. Even though I still prefer the real time combat of the other games, I am now quite happy with the turn-based combat RGG Studios has crafted.

The amount of content in the game is frankly overwhelming but in a good way. All the favourites are here as far as minigames go. The quality of these varies (Sujimon and Dondoko are a bore) but nevertheless there is more than enough to enjoy here. The sidestories are good and there is little to complain about in that regard.

The narrative in this game is hard to talk about without just concluding that it has the same strengths and weaknesses as most all games in the franchise. It's extremely well presented, intriguing as far as mysteries go and manages to balance a serious and playful tone. On the other hand it has ridiculous reveals/twists, some questionable voice-acting (Buraisu still confuses me), Ichiban is still the most infuriatingly dense mfer out there and the pacing can feel a little off sometimes.

I love this game because I love this franchise, it really is everything that makes this series so special for better and for worse.

But now it really is time to let Kiryu rest.
