This one's a real gem.
I played this game without previous knowledge of the other 6 titles besides Yakuza 0 (god tier game), but even I can say that Ichiban had the biggest shoes in the world to fill. I was never a fan of turn-based combat, but this one struck me differently, I got so hooked, so magically charmed by the universe that Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio created, that even tho I'm a huge Metal Gear fan, this one went straight into my Top 2 of favorite games. *sharing that position with Yakuza 0

The thing is, Ryu Ga Gotoku has a way to create such appealing and caring stories, such heartbreaking and concrete narratives, that even me, a guy who never was a fan of JRPGs, or Turn-based combat AT ALL, got completely addicted to the story of this one dude.

There's just no way that Yakuza: Like A Dragon fits into any category of a bad game, this one's a real gem.
