Yakuza 0, Kiwami 1 and 2 were amazing so I picked up this remastered collection. I have never played a game with such frustrating boss fights. They just block everything, including swords, blocked with their forearms. Maybe 1 in 10 hits gets through, and does maybe 1% of their hit bar in damage. This is on the easiest mode. I can't even imagine what it would take to beat them on normal or hard. although I know people have done it, so it isn't impossible.
The Yakuza games have a great story, but those of us with arthritis or CTS cannot experience the story if we can't at least get past the bosses on the easiest mode. I have been on one boss now for over 4 hours, pausing to rest for a minute or two then continuing for a bit. It is not enjoyable and will be my last boss of the game if I do even manage to beat it. It's a shame, because the story is amazing.
Yakuza 0, Kiwami 1 and 2 did not have this issue, and the easy mode was actually easy enough for me to only need to rest a few times during boss fights. I will watch the rest of the cutscenes on YouTube for 3 to try to get the story and then give 4 a try. If it is this bad I will give up far sooner.
