If you only care for the JRPG stuff, go with Like a dragon. Along with the new gameplay they added Ichiban as a new protagonist - he's the second one overall for the mainline games.

If you want to play the ones with brawling gameplay too, then go chronologically. They are somewhat connected and follow the same protagonist up until Ichiban is introduced. There's the Kiwami series of remakes if you want something more modern - they are quite good, but some folks prefer the originals.

Like a dragon and Infinite wealth, I assume, don't reference much of the old games, but knowing them still adds a bit to the experience.
