It's also worth noting that you should heed cues like "Let us know when you're ready to go". This is basically Yakuza: Like A Dragon letting you know that the next sequence is going to be a biggun', and you won't be able to get involved in substories, minigames, and the like for a while. Bear this in mind if you want to mop up everything the map has to offer before progressing the story, or if you just need to stock up on some goods before diving into the inevitable chapter-ending boss fight.

How long does Yakuza: Like a Dragon take to beat?

If you're absolutely determined to power through, you can beat the game in around 35-40 hours. But if you're someone who wants to soak in all the sights, complete all the substories, and generally tick off everything, it'll last you well over 50 hours or more.
