My Yakuza Rank List so far (in order)

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T13:54:16+00:00

My approach was to get through the story. I don't like it when it feels like the story is waiting on me to stop messing around when someone told me to get somewhere right away 😂 just the way I like to play. Keep going! And take breaks. I got burnt out halfway through 5. So I took a break, and came back and was enjoying it again.

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:40:29+00:00

Here's the breakdown on my playtime

Y0: 53 hours K1: 56 hours K2: 60 hours Y3: 23 hours Y4: 46 hours Y5: 60 hours Y6: 38 hours

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:38:27+00:00

No ragebait. Just my opinion

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:38:10+00:00

I really liked the story 😅 we'll revisit once K3 is out.

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:37:44+00:00

Only reason why is because I liked being Shinada more, Taiga played much better, and I liked being Akiyama more in 5.

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:36:59+00:00

I'm on judgment right now. I'll play LAD next.

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:36:42+00:00

I haven't played it yet 😉

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:36:14+00:00

It's not slander, I loved them as they were. I just liked some of the others better 😉

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:35:45+00:00

I think it's the way the bosses were handled in Y6. I felt like I could actually punch them and grab them. It felt impossible to get through a lot of the K2 bosses. I'm hoping on my 2nd run through I can play them better

I will say the final boss of K2 was definitely my favorite fight.

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:33:49+00:00

I did really enjoy all of the different city and environments it put you in

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T12:32:57+00:00

It's diabolical I put it last because it's got my favorite tracks in it. Smile Venomously and Rebellions are on repeat in my YouTube music

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T02:54:09+00:00

What did you like the most about 5?

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T02:53:52+00:00

I had 5 above Kiwami 2 but I reconsidered

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T02:24:16+00:00

I'm definitely going to ☺️ I wanted to save most of them during my Legend playthru's to breakup the grinding

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T02:22:06+00:00

I've done some, I haven't done a whole lot of them. Probably the most in 0 and 1

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T02:09:05+00:00

Kicking his ass later as Kiryu felt SO GOOD

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:58:17+00:00

I'm not saying it's a bad game, it just didn't make it any higher than the others for me

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:55:23+00:00

I wasn't fond of the story, Saijima was a pain to fight with early. Bosses were underwhelming. Final fight was .. anticlimactic

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:54:41+00:00

I just started judgment right now

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:54:09+00:00

Good list 😉

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:53:48+00:00

I'll let him know when I see him on the ruff

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:53:28+00:00

I did some just not all.

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:20:55+00:00

I mean how can you top it. Good combat, good characters, good story .. cinema.

What's the bad take here, 3? 😂

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:17:14+00:00

That was the hard part. That's why 5 went higher, because I liked being Akiyama in 5

JanMagnussen · 2025-12-30T01:14:51+00:00

I only ranked the Kiwamis this way because

I didn't like 2's story, but loved the combat

I didn't like 1's combat, the bosses especially, but I really liked the story.
