This series has not gotten enough attention.
Pros:
1. Fun story
>not going to say good as it is my opinion
>very gun to imagine yourself as a yakuza in these situations
2. Great characters
>the two main characters being the center piece.
>hardened yakuza but with hearts of gold, I love this archetype
3. Great "do everything" feel to the games
>the side games are the gravy to the meat and potatoes, meat and potatoes being the story and characters.
4. Always has times for jokes
>like many games similar to this title, the developers were not shy when it came to putting in some of their own humor into the otherwise serious world of yakuza
5. Unlike many games today I.E: the last of us, horizon zero dawn, etc., it has a fun story where things actually progress.
>not a ladder moving sim with the shitties/ most generic and uneventful don't say the "z-word" stories ever.
>nor a future lady actually clone from past lady who make the robots go wow shitstorm of a story either.
The only cons I could find about this game series is its combat, fun when it is but when the game decides to bull shit you, you really feel it; and that people have little to no access to any of the games seeing as how they are all pretty spread apart release date wise.
What do you think about this series, have you played it? Have you heard of it???

This is my favorite game in the franchise.
