I mean, he was a lot of fun, sure, but his move from being one of the most feared and revered yakuzas in Kamurocho to, er… construction is probably one of my favourite examples of character development in video games. I’ve since been very pleased with the fact Kiwami 2 has a three-chapter Majima saga – which I haven’t played yet, but am very excited to start – but even Majima’s character is drastically improved from Kiwami.
#YAKUZA KIWAMI MAJIMA WEST PARK SERIES#
Yes, I know Kiwami is a remake of the first Yakuza game, and that 0 is a prequel written and developed long after that – it doesn’t make my disappointment as someone new to the series any less valid.
I played Kiwami immediately after rolling credits on 0, so it’s safe to say I was fairly disappointed in my dual-protagonist being relegated to his Majima Everywhere role. Majima, though? As Sinead O’Connor once sang, nothing compares to the Mad Dog of Shimano. I get excited every single time Kashiwagi, Sayama, or Date shows up on screen. This has since managed to weasel its way into my all-time top ten, while Kiwami and Kiwami 2 – the latter of which I’m currently around halfway through – aren’t far behind it. I didn’t realize this until I booted up my first Yakuza game back in November: Yakuza 0. Goro Majima is, without a shadow of a doubt, my favourite video game character of all time – please don’t tell Geralt of Rivia I said that. In a good way, though – especially that last example. Its cutscenes vary from tranquil, tender moments to raucous rows teeming with bullets and belligerence, but when you’re actually playing Yakuza – dashing around, talking with your fists, running cabaret clubs, and engaging in construction company clan warfare – it’s all just a bit… odd.
