Jan 23, 2024Infinite Wealth is everything I wanted from a Yakuza: LAD sequel. It refines and expands on many of Yakuza: LAD's RPG loose ends or underexplored bits, whisking you away to the wonderful Hawaii in the process. Yes, it may be a bit too expansive for some, retains some of Yakuza's more annoying quirks, and isn't an RPG in the sense of making Ichiban's story totally your own. But the story it does tell, and the adventures you do go on, are heartfelt and funny and told with such rich detail. I'll say it again: thank goodness for Yakuza. [RPS Bestest Bests]

Jan 30, 2024It can feel a bit whiplash-y to go from the high-highs of Sujimon battling to the lows of confronting our government’s seeming unwillingness to do something substantive for people without housing while apparently having Infinite Wealth (see what I did there) for bailing out banks. But I appreciate that while the Yakuza series has always mixed its message with absurdity, Infinite Wealth pushes even harder on the social commentary that undergirds the game’s wackier moments to remind the player that though this is a goofy-ass game, it has something to say, and it’s high time we actually start listening.
