fantasic rpg with questionable story choices the closer to the finale you get

cast of supporting characters is too big to give everyone a satisfying end and falls short of Yakuza 5's ability to wrap up a large complex story, IW feels like it manages to wrap up it's core ideas but doesn't know what to do with loose plot threads or just straight up forgot until last minute

having liked Gaiden's story especially was disappointing with how comnected characters were handled, you can tell Gaiden was made After this

overall I still loved my time with it and enjoyed the story for the most part, it just feels more like a middle entry of a trilogy than it's own thing with a satisfying end imo
