The story is pretty serious interesting through all the 13 Chapters while the side story cases are as ridiculous as they need to be, so there is a good balance there.
Combat

117 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
All in all, the game is absolutely worth buying for its story, combat, and humor.

The performance on my old laptop is also very nice (had to use Lossless Scaling to reach 120fps) and didn ́t experience almost any bug during my 60hrs gameplay, so this speaks very well on the optimization side.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

The graphics are good, they're really good, the environment and town look sharp, and the character graphics are finely detailed.
Audio

Also, if you are a non-Japanese speaker who has been hesitant about playing dialogue-heavy Yakuza games with subtitles only, you will be glad to hear that Judgment’s English voice acting is excellent.
Characters

Yagami is such a likeable main character, He's cool without trying too hard, and I liked that he felt more like a normal guy than some unstoppable superhero
