Yakuza: Like a Dragon combat system changes

The biggest novelty the game brings to the series is the change of combat system. Yakuza: Like a Dragon combat system is actually going to be turn-based, dropping the fast-paced button mashing brawling system it used up until now. As you might know, that is a major change to the rest of the series.

It is also one that seems to be splitting the fanbase. Many players feel that implementing a turn-based combat system is good for the game. After all, the franchise has always been an RPG at its core. Not to mention it will provide a better challenge, as it used to be very easy to exploit the mechanics to make the fights barely an inconvenience to the player.

However, not everyone is looking at it the same way. Other fans feel that a turn-based combat system slows down the game too much. It is definitely a controversial topic at the moment. But I guess there is no point in judging it before we get our hands on it and see for ourselves. I, for one, am very excited to try it out.
