I guess for the long time fans of the series this game might've been a bit disappointing due to it having less content.
However, as a newcomer to the series and having just played yakuza 5, I really appreciated the smaller scope and the more personal story this game tells.
It was easier to follow, the supporting cast of characters is great and very memorable, the gameplay is a bit rough but that's to be expected because of the engine change.
I had a blast
