Man, talking about adding a new protagonist makes sense considering Kiryu has had 7 games (counting 0 but not his swordsman persona or zombie outbreak) but the actual gameplay? Not sure how to react to this it kinda feels awkward. I mean, the spinoff Judgment had another protagonist, a focus on stealth but at its core it relied on an action system similar to previous Yakuza games.

I don't think it's a bad approach. Let Judgment follow through the path most walked, and give this a chance, see how it goes. Changing protagonist is also a welcome change - you can only do so much with one character, even if it's a Yakuza game.

However, changing the core gameplay might divide people. I'm pretty sure the guys from Sega are aware of this considering the April vid. This change of gameplay reminds me more to the latest Final Fantasy games that focus more on hack and slash rather than turn based combat or that system where you had to choose commands quiclky. |

I already hated the new protag's design when it was first revealed, but I could easily get passed this. The revamp of the gameplay though? I'm not liking what I'm reading at all.
And the story... we spent so many games saving the Tojo's clan's butt with Kiryu and they announce just like that it's been destroyed. Only good thing is that they're finally changing the main location.

Spent 6 games effectively protecting the Tojo clan, only to have it all destroyed in the prologue of the seventh. Sort of feels like a middle finger to Kiryu.
Changing the core gameplay like that is a bold choice. It's one surefire way to divide the fanbase.

A first look at Ijincho and the combat system. Also includes characters who the player can "summon" to help in a fight.

So, you're facing off against the Japanese, the Chinese AND the Koreans!? Sounds like a whole lot to take on in a single game, although I suppose the latter two probably establish a business relationship at the level of "see who gets backstabbed first". Pretty good trailer, the story setting is engaging.
