Top 3 problems with the Yakuza series - Quickie

3. Story

Now, I enjoy the story of the game but the way they are continuing the life of Kazuma really makes no sense. They often tell the same story with the same outcome. Kazuma's help is requested and he turns the position of head of the clan. Now with the 5th one, he is a cab driver which seems a bit lame for the former Yakuza and runner of an orphanage.

2. Promotion

With this kind of game, there is suspicion that it promotes the lifestyle featured in the game. Which is  understandable since Kazuma knows that the yakuza way of life is bad, he will go out of his way to save the organization that terrorizes many people everyday in Japan.


1. Combat

Combat in the Yakuza series is dull, it will get boring so quick. You have to dodge people in the street to avoid extra fighting. All of the games are like this, the only thing that saves the game is its cut-scenes.
