That one fight however was a big mishap. Maybe it is because I'm playing on &quot;Tactician&quot; difficulty, which should translate to hard difficulty. I get what I was subscribed for. Most encounters are fine and a TPK is not uncommon, however they don't feel cheap. That one boss encounter at the end of Act 2 did not offer any way to re-do it differently without loading a save from 3 hours before. With a lower difficulty it was not so bad. For more info: I did no hyper-optimised character builds, so that has also been an influence on my frustrating experience.<br />Yakuza 7 had also some very fierce difficulty spikes that were making my hair pull out. Other JRPGs I do not have much experience with.
