    I bought the whole collection on GOG when it was something like 80% off in 2023 I think. Still haven’t started. I hope it’s as good as people say. I know many people start with 0 but I think I’ll start with Kiwami for the close-to-release-order experience. Will probably start it sometime this year.

        Did you start with Kiwami or with the OG non-remastered Yakuza 1? I’ve heard people suggesting both.

          I started with kiwami. There was a perceptible downgrade when I played the first non kiwami Yakuza 3 however

            Yeah that’s kinda unavoidable I think unless you play in true release order. I’ve heard people say the same warning as a reason not to start with 0.
