Lost Judgment - PlayStation 4

*Ryu Ga Gotoku* Studios does it again, delivering another excellent follow-up to the gumshoe experiment known as "Judgement".

You heard me that stupid gang from the first game isn't a pain in this one. Look I got this game a while ago and I'm still yet to fully beat It but this is a lot of content you could just spend hundreds of hours just even doing the school stories and if you get the DLC on sale then you have an entire side story. I'm just really happy this had a PS5 free upgrade so now I can probably fully beat it now I don't have an excuse lol

Always love me a Yakuza series game (I know it's Judgement, but same Universe). Cooler fighting and animations. I love Yagami-san

Good

I enjoyed this game a lot more than the first, but it's still very similar to the first, so if you like that game you'll enjoy this one. There are a lot of added detective gadgets and some toning down of previously disliked features that help this game feel a bit better. The side content in this game is really good, with a really robust side activity that has you going through half slice of life school stories half slow burn detective story. Of course featuring plenty of mini games. I also feel like the three combat style kept the combat from becoming staleI thought the story was really good with some interesting themes and ideas, there were some writing missteps but that happens in all games. Overall I was engaged and wanted to know what would happen next.

If you like Yakuza, I think you'll like this game as well. The voices can be dubbed if you like and I think they did a decent job. I believe in Yakuza you can only get the Japanese voices with English subtitles. I think the Japanese acting is sometimes better because they put more emotion into the characters. There is definitely a lot more special attacks and combos in this game as well.

First of all I didn't play the first part of this game "Judgment". I met the saga with this game.I can only say that this game is amazing, the story is wonderful, the gameplay is not very complex, it is easy to understand the fighting techniques and the rhythm of the game. The map is easy to use and it is easy to know where you want to go in the cities. Compared to other open world titles where their maps are so complicated to understand.I can only recommend this game, it will catch you and you will have a lot of fun and in the end it will leave you with a beautiful message and a lot of desire to continue playing. I just hope that in the future there will be a continuation of this story, and we can see a whole saga of this wonderful game.

I liked the story more than the previous game cause it deals with a heavy topic like school bullying. The characters are good especially Yagami & the Detective gang. The gameplay is much faster & better than Judgment along with the fun new Snake style. The school setting in Yokohama isn't much but I liked that we get to explore a school as part of the story investigation since it is focused on bullying. There's more side content and they are enjoyable & funny that you may get distracted from the story by doing the side cases & school story. There is no technical issues at least for me since I've played it on PS4 but it still work out fine. I highly recommend anyone to play this game & you don't even need to play the first Judgment or even the main Yakuza games to understand it.
