I think Yakuza/Like a Dragon wins the crown for game series that’s made me emotional the most times. Majima seeing Makoto in the ending of 0 and in 2, Kiryu seeing the message the orphanage kids left him in The Man Who Erased His Name, Kiryu going on a tour of his old haunts in Infinite Wealth, Majima visiting Kiryu in the hospital at the end of Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii…there are plenty more, but those all came to mind. They really use the fact that we’ve been following these characters for decades to the fullest extent.
Interesting. I have the game but am still working through backlog before I play it. From the previews it always seemed kinda like absurdly humorous so I’m kinda surprised to hear that they mix in some more emotional chords
