so i do not like this game. i also dont like typing long about things i dont like, gives me Dars Souls 2 coniptions...
Game is split into 4 (technically 5) routes, all each with their own story and mini games attached to them. Before you have much time you want to invest or care much into the characters story/ minigame, you are either burnt out from its monotnous routine or the characters story is already over. For instance, the worst story in this game belongs to act ., which really sucks bc that character itself is very sick and his combat is insane! Its just that his story and forced minigame are so goddamn boring and longwinded that you get really burnt out from Y5 by the end of his campaign. Also on a side note, this game does not respect your time. You cannot skip a lot of the filler dialouge that doesnt matter nor does it allow you to skip said cutscene, you have to mash your way to the end of it. Also im glad we're out of the era of yakuza games where u have to save at a phone booth and no where else. you cannot save into 4th story until an hour into that segment. By far, yakuza has some of the most bullshit bosses ive played. It is not fun fighting a boss that constantly blocks after the 1st initial hit that does 5 damage. And if your retort to that is use specific heat actions or breakable weapons, your game philosophy is stupid. There is plenty more id like to get into, but remembering gives me a headache. The story was very all over the place and finale was a mess save for two characters lol. Y4 still stands as my favorite.
