@@klaus.sfc01official30 Or he gets Chemotherapy I'm at chapter 7 and a few chapters before they wanna go to the hospital with Kiryu so maybe they do that and Kiryu survives.
Thanks for highlighting just how disturbing that human grating attack is. Like dude it’s more brutal than any limit break from any Final Fantasy, scary as hell.
While I do prefer the previous Like A Dragon overall, infinite wealth is definitely an improvement in the gameplay (combat) department. Infinite wealth’s biggest short coming imo was with some of its narrative choices, especially towards the end with some of its characters. Other than that, great game, would recommend. Edit: Heads up to anyone reading this, I talk about some pretty big spoilers in the replies.
I really disliked how flat Ichiban felt in this one. We got his goofy/friendly side, but they oddly forgot about him going berserk in 7. It's not character growth if they don't have him atleast struggle with holding himself back(especially when a guy hurts your mom and jokes about hurting a kid).
@@depressedcheems9961 I agree 100%. I’m not usually fond of characters that are forgiving to a fault, but it did not take long for me at all to warm up to Ichiban, charismatic and relatable goof that he is. In this game however I swear they dumbed him down, he definitely had more depth as a character in the first game like you said. Now they have made him dangerously naive, at least for the main story, I’ve noticed he regains his intelligence in most of the side stories funnily enough. I don’t dislike him now or anything don’t get me wrong, but damn his decisions were frustrating to sit through sometimes.
@@s.silverman9864 same, I still like him just a little disappointing. They should have let him beat Eiji-chan up after we saved the girl(barely stopping himself in time). Then have us forgive him at the end.
@@depressedcheems9961 Yeah a chance to rough him up a bit should have been the least we got. You can’t write a character to be a hate sponge in a series like this and not give us the satisfaction of beating his ass. Honestly I’m convinced that there was supposed to be another chapter or two before the finale. I mean how are we supposed to believe that Eiji traveled back to Japan and grew his hair and a beard to the point that he looks like a completely different character, all in the span of like 2-3 days?
No interaction with zhao and seonhee with ichiba and introducing han and zhao so late, the ending where the whole purpose of the game is to see his mom which they dont even show her in the epilouge, and Kiryu dragging the game on despite having closure in gaiden annoyed me. Still a solid game and I think its amazing.
i love the yakuza series and played lad 8 120 hours , the story starts great but i dont like the whole palekana sect shit a radioactive-waste facility on an island wtf.... i want a yakuza gangsta vibe story and not a storyline about a sect , so when the parties split i enjoyed kiryus parts way more . i think a yakuza game outside of japan wasnt also a good idea ,honolulu doesnt felt immersive when alsmost everyone speaking perfect japanese, a gta game wouldnt also work outside of usa, but at the end of the day i enjoyed the game
Dude, the last game was just as good as this one lol you should’ve gave it a shot, plus it adds more dimension to the story in infinite wealth once you finish it
If I bought the game, I rather play it on dub. Not because YongYea voice acted Kiryu, I just like Ichiban’s English VA (yes, call me biased if you want)
7:04 honestly yakuza like a dragon was (IN MY OPINION MANDATORY DISCLAIMER) the weakest game in the series because like: The gameplay is boring and poorly thought out (and no it's not turn based bad it's actually just you hit enemies that's it lol and you can deal more damage with weaknesses WOW never seen that before) The grinding is obnoxious and way to insane and everything besides the arakawa storyline sucks (especially mirrorface fuck plotdevice in human form) This concludes my 50th rant about why i do not like a dragon yakuza (wait what i think i messed something up here) the short edition. Trust me i have a 2 oaragraph rant on the steam reviews lol =: (And yes i am taking every chance to hate on this game)
Taking every chance to hate on this game, what’s that mean? No seriously what’s that even mean, literally waste your time on writing a negative review? (No offense)

Fitting for the last game he's featured in (well until they make the cancer fake in 2025 or something)
Also KSon been in gaiden as hostess) Absolute great 4k movie with her 👀

How much you wanna bet they don't bring it up again in Y9? @@SpectrumByte
You live in Australia. If you wanted to fight a shark, or any number of other lethal animals, you really don't have to go far...

1:08 WOW RAM BECAME IGN
one of my favorite things in 8 is how the housekeeper just goes hard with the broom (in general jobs are very well balanced)
I feel infinitely wealthy whenever Ramz releases new content. We all rich today, fam
My favourite wholesome brain damaged protagonist is back
Ichiban too....😏
Still playing through the previous one; sounds like the new game will be just as much fun as the first Ichiban game!
Kson being a Kiryu fangirl even in a game is a nice touch.
No one tell him that all the other games in Japan also made you buy NG+
Never thought I'd see the day
Grinding in this game IS so fun/nice looking
Apparantly the girl who fangirls over Kiryu is a famous VTuber and fan of the series
Honestly I feel like this is one of the easier Yakuza games, it's extremely easier then 7 at the very least.
It's the lack of extreme grinding is what it is out of nowhere yiy start needing that crazy gear
congratulation on becoming a REAL GAMEJOURNO
you gotta go back and play 7 at some point man. one of the best stories in the series.
Definitely its up there with yakuza 0 and judgment
How the heck was 7 one of the best stories in the series??? It's bland, mediocre and emotional detachment to all the characters in the series.

Ah hey man ya rebranded.the channel?
Plays Unwelcomed School as background ost, you are very based
Great video!!!!
You gonna do any videos on persona 3 reload ?
I need this game to bad im broke rn.😢

Real strange choice to play infinite wealth before 7...
The NG+ thing is enough reason for me to boykott the game.
Why oh why did you play the dub? Why do that to yourself?
If I bought the game, I rather play it on dub. Not because YongYea voice acted Kiryu, I just like Ichiban’s English VA (yes, call me biased if you want)
I don't get the hate for YongYea his voice acting is just fine, not the best, not worse. He's just fine. People overreact way too much.
@alenezi989a3 I listened to clips of his dub without any prejudice and it's god awful

What grinding bro...? There is like one grinding segment in Sotenbori.
It's literally the 2nd best Yakuza game on a story basis.
