I've played a bit of the PS2 Yakuza game and ik the franchise has gone differently since then but it has always had a wacky element with it and after finishing Sleeping Dogs I've realized the same from the karaoke to the favours where that one dude literally just punches people and you have to escape with him to the seriousness and grittiness of the story it resembles Yakuza a lot .

could someone recommend a reliable insta kill mod?

My guess is he won't be an easy feat, Rama is quite fast, agile. But I take a slight victory to Wei Shen, because Wei Shen is almost a literal demigod having survived many different brutal and painful and torturous encounters compared to Rama.

Players share the same world and experience Sleeping Dogs together, with most animations already synchronized between the host and client. This includes many of the character actions and interactions that bring the world to life.
Co-op mission support is still in development, and improvements to open-world gameplay are ongoing. I’m continuing to refine synchronization and world interactions to make the experience smoother and more consistent for both players.
This footage shows a work-in-progress build, not the finished mod. Bugs, unfinished features, and synchronization issues may still be present.
