Title
A dramatic story of struggle and yakuza pride surrounded by side-content that is essentially episodes of The Simpsons.

Title
A monumental reboot
So I got introduced to RGG’s work through Judgement and Lost Judgment. While finishing those games I had no idea they were based on the Yakuza universe. I was a big fan of those games so I played Like a Dragon as well. I thoroughly enjoyed all these games and I made up my mind that I will begin my journey in playing all yakuza games starting with Yakuza 0. This game is amazing, everything from the lighting, the combat and the mechanics lend to such an interesting experience. The story is pretty strong as well. You switch back between Goro and Kiryu until they become interconnected in the end. While I think game is phenomenal, I do have some minor critiques. One is the lack of depth. I don’t blame RGG at all for this. I got a little spoiled with the later games and their immersion that when I went back I was a bit disappointed in the level of depth within the gameplay. However this criticism is very minor and I still think this game is Amazing. All in all I’m excited to continue my journey with Yakuza and I can’t wait to begin playing Kiwami.

I kinda wish that the main quest and the whole real estate side content came together a bit better than it actually does here. The big difference in moods is not what I'm talking about but more in the purpose of most of it. Because, for me, it feels like the game feels forced to justify the character's emotional attachment to the setting so it adds 2 whole big quests to prove so. It just seems very overwhelming at a certain point because of how repetitive it is, especially because the game really encourages you to do it.

Other than that the game is pretty much amazing, I was surprised by how wholesome the little side quests were while still not feeling out of character for the game. At this point it feels like it could get away with anything really.

Title
Everything has impact
Even though I havent played many story driven games, Yakuza 0 stands out among my favorites, due to its amazing plot, well written characters, comedy, size of the game and density of Kamurocho.

In Yakuza 0 we are shown Kiryu Kazuma's rise as a legendary yakuza, fresh out of Kazama's doorstep, with his sworn brother Nishikiyama. During the course of the game, we see Kiryu wearing black AND white, tasting both the yakuza life and life as a civilian, only for him by the end of the game to buy his iconic gray suit, deciding to live as a yakuza for now, with a slight hint of white in his soul, which started his gradual distancing from the yakuza, that same dark path that he was heading towards, the same path Kazama used to walk.

We also get a look on how Goro Majima "turned" into the Mad Dog Of Shimano. During his part of the story, here where we see him in a metaphorical prison fall in love with a girl he was ordered to kill. Her blindness due to traumatic events and her past where she was seperated from those closest to her, spoke to Majima on deeper, personal level, to the point of falling in love with her and slowly losing his shit over the thought of Makoto being hurt. Throughout the game we see Majima interact with different people who will also influence him in some shape or form. By the time the conflict resolves, Majima rejoins yakuza as a Mad Dog, but with the context provided, we see an act covering Majima's true (slightly kind hearted) nature. With Majima Saga in Kiwami 2, this further supports that Majima's personality is intact by the Mad Dog persona.

Yakuza 0 fantastically builds up these 2 incredibly well written characters with a prequel they deserved, starting and launching their rivarly/friendship.

The side content needs no explanation, almost everything is fun asl

9/10

    This game is definitely worth playing again after Yakuza 5, because then you see all the little references they sprinkled throughout this.

    first playthrough was a very addicting 85% and then the last 15% the game completely dipped for me and i liked it way less. pretty sure yakuza is carried by the novelty of its side quests being essentially peak and its wacky/silly tone juxtaposition. cabaret club minigame goes hard as fuck though
