The story is fine (even if sometimes underwhelming and slow) but the gameplay is just dreadful. The enemies block all the time leaving you basically no options other than trying to spam grabs, unless you master the game's jank to such a degree that you can break it in half. It's gameplay is frankly
absolutely terrible, its a complete failure as a brawler.

It is still a Yakuza game, so the story will give you some value, but be warned the combat is annoying enough that it might make it incredibly difficult to actually care about the plot.
