Today we're playing Yakuza 3, the third entry in the ongoing Ryu ga Gotoku series, and the first one I played nearly a decade ago (must have been 2010? 2011? How time flies). A victim of cut content for localisation/time and a plot overloaded with kid drama, can Kiryu stop the latest big criminal plot while he also has to manage an orphanage? The answer is yes, because those two plots exist in separate universes! It's time to bring the heat in this brawling political thriller slice of life action/inaction title!
