Which Yakuza/Like a dragon games are a must play? (lemmy.world)

I've already completed Yakuza 0 and Yakuza Kiwami, am currently about 15 hours into Kiwami 2.

I fell in love with the franchise after playing Yakuza 0 and initially wanted to play each game chronologically at least up until Yakuza 7/ Like a dragon, but I keep seeing new games releases and spinoffs that look very interesting, such as Judgement, Ishin, and most recently Pirates in Hawaii.

With my full-time job and other adult responsibilities I can't possibly hope to get to play all of them, else I'll never catch up to the current releases.

Are there any titles you suggest I should skip? Are there any "absolutely must play no matter what" titles?

I've only played and finished 0 and 1. The first one I actually played was 5 because it was on ps+ back in the day but I loved it so much I knew I should start from the beginning. Few years later I saw 0 was on ps+ and my gf started playing it, so I decided to play that one as my actual first, then moved onto 1 when I felt the urge to play another Yakuza game. Eventually I'll get that urge again and I'll boot up 2, and so on. I'm in no rush to get to the latest.
