9/10
Ryu Ga Gotoku managed to develop a very unique Turn-based playstyle that is now excellently mixed with Brawler. Which provided an extensive gameplay experience.
Plotwise also done extremely well, and arguably one of the best plots in the series!
However, bossfights are still lacking in depth.. and are still far behind the quality of Yakuza 0, 2 and 5 bosses.
Hawaii on the hand was all the "Push" the series ever needed, whether by how massively it made the roaming experience better with side activities, or simply being artistically beautiful.
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is the best way to start off the year and I am extremely excited for what Ryu Ga Gotoku will offer after this huge success!
