Yakuza Kiwami did the impossible
Heyyyyyyy, so... Remember that post of mine a while back about how Persona 5 Royal almost made me cry? Well, a few weeks back, the unthinkable happened. I cried over a video game. And that game was none other than Yakuza Kiwami.
I'm sorry but, the final few chapters fucking killed me. I somehow teared up on 3 different occasions. First, during Kazama's death scene. That last bit with Kiryu swearing Kazama will always be his father hit me, man. Nishiki's sacrifice may have hit me harder. I loved the relationship between Kiryu and Nishiki during Y0 and YK's opening chapter, so seeing it culminate with THAT just crushed me. Not as bad, but the post credits with Kiryu and Haruka going on to finally live a normal life (Or so they think) got to me. Just, damn. What a fucking game.
I think Yakuza 0 was indeed better, but nonetheless, I can safely say both games are 10/10 experiences in my eyes. Go play em if you haven't.
