It's a mostly good game with all the great scenes, characters, story and little sub-stories you'd expect, but the combat got done so dirty it's very very hard to recommend this game unless you really want to play all the Yakuza you can

Nearly every boss, like all except very few, wields either a knife or a gun, which they of course use constantly, and every attack from them is unblockable and knocks you down on the ground, except in some very few situations if you have the proper skills. So therefore almost all bosses were mostly a fight against endurance against my own frustration. I ended up either cheesing all of them or spending an entire inventory of healing items and losing decades of my life expectancy in real life

It's a shame that this game is the one with the best game mechanic in history, Majima Everywhere, because that ♥♥♥♥ was the absolute best
