Another year, another Like a Dragon game. It’s been this way for a while now, to be fair, and playing these titles is not tiring, even if a bit routine. Yet I can’t help but feel that the RGG team itself is starting to get tired and for all of the cool ideas and elements they put in these games, they might be dreaming to make a bunch of non-Like a Dragon games instead.
Infinite Wealth, or Like a Dragon 8, is the second jRPG entry in the series so far, focusing on party turn based combat instead of beat ’em up gameplay. And while it has a lot of really cool things and quality of life improvements over the Yakuza: Like a Dragon, I can’t say that I’ve enjoyed it much.
