I bought it but haven't really started playing yet because jesus christ my backlog is nuts and holy hell am i enjoying yakuza 7 right now.

But i distinctly remember emulating OG Persona 4 and getting smeared on normal and save scumming all the way up to the end.

So thats good to know at least. I think my problem was i approached it like a regular JRPG and didn't bother with status ailments/buffs
