I am making my way through Yakuza series right now and while playing 5 I realized that I am not that invested into the game’s combat, so I turned it to easy and that just streamlined the combat so much for me. I would recommend to maybe try Yakuza 0 on normal at first and then just switch it to easy if you feel like the gameplay might be dragging on.

People like you describe don’t want to play the game

I think this is part of the problem I have.

Are they still pressing buttons and making input? Yes.

Thus, they're still playing the game.

If you want to sound less judgmental, stop saying they're not "playing" it or that "they don't want to play it" just because they're not "playing it the way I think is right."

If you really think its okay, accept that when they are still pressing buttons and interacting with the game, they are still functionally playing the game. Not playing the game is watching a Let's Play.

It's a pointless distinction rooted in treating people who want an easy mode as "lesser" because "they don't want to actually play the game." Sorry, sick of hearing it worded this way.
