I’ve started a new series where I explain Pokemon names! Feel free to come follow and hang out!

Yakuza 0: Very obvious why this is the fan favourite. Fantastic game and really great start to the series. I adored the story, characters, music and substories. Such a memorable experience. I could go on but yeah I think everyone agrees that this one is just phenomenal.

Yakuza Kiwami 1: Really solid game for sure. I haven’t played the OG version so I don’t know how it compares to Kiwami, but I really enjoyed this a lot. I think it benefits a lot from Yakuza 0 existing; I don’t really know how the Nishiki stuff would have felt without having played it. Loved the Majima Everywhere feature, it really never got old at all for me.

Yakuza Kiwami 2: Also really loved this game. I really enjoyed the dynamic between Kiryu and Sayama. Plus Goda was a great antagonist, the final hour or so with him was a real highlight. I also didn’t realise Majima would end up being such a reliable guy? My outsider view of the series was always that he was the antagonist for some reason, so I really enjoyed working with him and finding out that he’s much more of an anti-hero / chaotic but wholesome kind of guy.

Overall thoughts: Fantastic series so far! Really engaging with it and enjoying the world and characters so much. It’s a testament to the series that, although there’s so much going on and so many people to remember, it never feels boring or tedious! So that’s really great. I also love how it just feels so enthusiastic about itself? I think that’s such a great strength that keeps me wanting to play it all the way through.
