Well, that certainly was a Yakuza game.
I don't know, I've got a complicated relationship with these games. They're some of the most repetitive, padded out games out there, but they have this special charm that is irresistible to me. So I keep playing. I keep mashing. I keep running around Kamurocho. I keep beating Majima up. Then I mash some more.
The story this time around wasn't as good as the one in Yakuza 0, but it was pretty good, especially with the added (in 0) context of Kiryu's and Nishiki's relationship prior to the events of Kiwami. A simple story with some nice twists and pretty good character moments, but really not as compelling as its prequel.
I don't engage with side content in Yakuza. Maybe that's a mistake, but the substories I did play are bland and repetitive. And there's too many of them.
Ultimately, when I was not being assaulted by the numerous stupid gun-wielding thugs and bosses, I enjoyed my time with Kiwami. On to Kiwami 2!
I'm gonna be so sick of this series when I'm done with this marathon...
