Get this trash off my PS4.
This game was a fucking SLOG to play and a stain on the fist of the northstar franchise
as a huge fan of both Yakuza and HNK i was really excited to play this and was met with the biggest dissapointment ever
To start off, the combat is actually really fun,probably my 4th favorite in the series
The issue rises at the awful upgrade system (you barely get upgrade orbs) and how stupidly high the healthbars are.
Besides that, the story is terrible.It spits in the face of the source material and completely assasinated all the tension and emotion in the story. There's so many changes it's literally impossible to list them all.
Do not play this game.
Do not look at this game.
It doesn't exist.

Okay, I agree the story is mid when compared to the OG FOTNS but "you barely get any orbs"? I think you might've neglected to do side content because I've got my skill upgrades completed and I have a mind orb and two body orbs waiting to be used and most of the orbs I got were via minigames, substories and the coliseum shop.
