   Love the game. Hope they make part two with a longer story and make the combat more fluid.

   One of the most fulfilling Fist of The North Star games yet. It runs on the Yakuza 0 engine, but often times doesn't feel like it. KenshiroOne of the most fulfilling Fist of The North Star games yet. It runs on the Yakuza 0 engine, but often times doesn't feel like it. Kenshiro flows between enemies more fluidly and overall the action is more exciting. The minigames are stupidly fun, but I won't go into great detail to avoid spoilers. If you are a yakuza fan, definitely grab this when you can. If you're a Fist of The North Star fan, then this is a MUST. Here's hoping to more and improved games in the future. Ryu Ga Gotoku studios do not disappoint.… Expand

   No soy fan de Hokuto no Ken, pero si del Ryu ga gotuku studio y por eso decidí adquirir este juego. El titulo en si es un juego estilo yakuza pero de hokuto no ken, con casi todo lo que ello implica, y digo casi por que a diferencia de la saga yakuza, este titulo no posee una historia tan elaborada pero si algo interesante y al igual que su franquicia hermana aquí tendremos a nuestra disposición una serie de interesantes y divertidos minijuegos, coliseo y las ya famosas subhistorias. En lo que al combate se refiere para mi gusto es bastante mejor que lo visto en Kiwami 2 ya que tendremos mas variedad en los movimientos de kenshiro, también los enemigos por lo general son mas numerosos que en la saga yakuza. No hace falta decir que el juego hace gala de una violencia extrema. Mucha gente se ha quejado de que este juego no es del todo fiel para con la obra original, pero como e dicho antes no soy fan de hokuto no ken y he adquirido este juego por ser fan de su estudio desarollador por lo que en este caso no me voy a quejar en ese apartado y aparte es un juego que he disfrutado mucho por lo que me es imposible darle menos de un 8. Para terminar creo que este titulo con el tiempo se va a convertir en una de las joyas ocultas del catalogo de ps4, si es que no lo es ya.… Expand

   * walking is awful, you hit a wall or a active npc you're stuck for about 2 seconds.
   * animation are all the same.
   * you can't skip the last part of the finisher. When you do 10 in a fight, imagine how many you see.
   * sometimes a scene stop -> you walk literally 3 steps in the only available direction -> another long scene starts.
   * Sometimes enemies can target me in a way that they would make a 180° turn in one step to hit me. Like, CMON.
   * you can't stop easily when you start punching: that means if an enemy start to attack you, you're screwed. This is probably mostly me, but it's really annoying.
   * no, one, really no one saw that when you finish a chapter and save, it does it 2 times in a row?
   * some human 3D models are literally standing like a 3D model without skeleton, game devs should understand this. Left there in the default position, talking.
   * first time you go to the fortune-teller, you have about 20 slow appearing *unskippable-boxes-to-click-ok-to*,
   It feels like a game rushed out, no or little play tested, and it's a shame because I love the story, I
   love most of the combat system, most of the 3D models and the feeling overall... I hope they can come out with a game which is actually play tested.… Expand

   I bought this game hoping that it could be my introduction to the series but I was wrong. The game just didn't give you a lot of substantialI bought this game hoping that it could be my introduction to the series but I was wrong. The game just didn't give you a lot of substantial context to the characters unless you were a fan who watched the anime prior. In a lot of scenes, they'd introduce a character whose apparently important to the anime but is just nonchalantly thrown aside in the game after a few minutes.
   
   Compare that to the Yakuza games. The early games established characters and relationships before the plot really gets going and then those characters are developed as the game went on.
   
   In Lost Paradise, the way they handled relationships, character intros, and overall lore felt like an inside joke that you wouldn't get unless you were in the same room 30 years ago. The game just expected you to know who these people were and fill in the blanks yourself. I came into this game not really knowing the characters and I came out of it feeling the same way.
   
   Also, the game world and the substories were fairly dull. Apart from one substory including a group of pacifists, there really weren't a lot of standouts. Largely felt generic which is surprising seeing as how this game was made by the same people behind the Yakuza games which are filled with wacky and memorable substories.
   
   The minigames were a good bit of fun apart from one. The cabaret club minigame that they got from Yakuza is not as fun or rewarding this time around. However, the rhythm based minigame wherein Kenshiro is basically doctor was fun and lively and the mini game where Kenshiro hits raiders with a steel structure and measure the distance of their flight was awesome.
   
   The combat was solid overall. The presentation, the gore, and the famous "You're already dead" moments were all done so well. It definitely made you feel like a true badass not to be **** with. My one gripe is that it got repetitive fairly quickly even with all the upgrades I put in. It didn't take long until I was purposely avoiding fights.
   
   I honestly wanted to love this game and enjoy it more than I actually did. It was a game that I was incredibly hyped about but in the end, the game didn't immerse me into the world as much as I wanted. It is still a solid game that has a strong appeal towards longtime fans and with the sheer amount of content, it justifies the price. For me though, it's one of 2018's disappointing games.… Expand

   This game is really embarrassing. All the same. Artificial intelligence is pathetic and the music is not original
