    journey of the Sword

    Kenzan! Has the best music intro and one of the best beginning and ending of any of the Yakuza games.

    I was kind of scared in the beginning of the gameplay because it took so much time to kill an enemy but in the second half of the game I realized the problem was that because I couldn't understand the language. I didn't upgrade my weapons. So that was why I had such a hard time but a combat is fun the moment you get some women who actually damaged the enemy.

    The biggest problem with the combat is the enemies can keep knocking you down and that is really f** annoying.

    I really enjoyed the journey of playing this game it feels so different from the other Yakuza games and the contrast with how kiryu react to other people in this one is just so marvelous and enjoyable.

    For the middle of the game just kind of takes too long to really get going it's a lot of suspense and some interesting stuff happens, but it's just way too prolonged.

    But the smaller cast really makes you enjoy their company and this best love interest I have seen , much charisma a good foil and feel like she knows her own stuff.

    The characters development in this one through the game is just so enjoyable of the journey of the Sword and realizing that you have to get to the top before you can finally let go I really enjoy it.

    The only problem is that I watched the YouTube video while playing the Japanese game so I had to constantly look at the YouTube video to find out what the f*** was happening in the story so maybe some of the things weren't quite correct because of the translation in the YouTube video but I enjoyed my times spectacularly and you know it's good if I am willing to play a game in Japanese.
