First I'd like to thank Mr .357, Esppiral, Masterchan777, and Sappharad. I played this on an emulator (demul version 0.7) with 3x internal resolution and a widescreen hack created by Esppiral, Masterchan777, and Sappharad to give the game an "HD Remastered" look. This was the same method used for the Shenmue Remastered Movies created by Mr .357. If you guys are interested in watching the whole game in this way then I highly suggest checking out those movies. Also I was hoping to get this video done and published around the new year but using both the emulator and a capture device was a real pain for my computer until I found a much better method to record through the computer so I had to go back and redo over half the QTEs in the video. Anyway, hope you guys enjoy! This game is basically the father of Quick Time Events after all.

God this video makes Ryo look like the biggest spaz ever and I love it

[@jurayzscout9432]

17:51 i love that Ryo just calmly got punched like he's just giving everything up

[@ayushnayak8746]

He just gave a guy a nice throw and then turned intentionally to get punched in the face.

[@Posa6889]

Shenmue: Ryo has the attention span of a goldfish edition.

[@QuickTimeFailure]

It's far worse in Shenmue 2. In that game he has the intellect of a styrofoam cup.

[@DanDoes5tuff1234]

UncleGrandpa Don't insult goldfish like that. that's not cool #GoldfishShaming #ImLookingForSailors

[@QuickTimeFailure]

I'm looking for some goldfish. Do you know where I can find some goldfish?

@@QuickTimeFailure I laughed way too hard at that

[@muaythaibachatero393]

As a martial artist myself, it hurts to see Ryo get his ass whooped by a couple of punks😢

[@xMTxcameron]

I enjoy seeing all of these because I haven't seen most of the different variations of the QTES. It amazes me how many new things I see in Shenmue after all these years

[@davidnavarro4821]

The game that opened me - and million others - to QTE's. Old childhood memories.

[@QuickTimeFailure]

It's crazy how nearly 20 years ago, this type of gameplay called Quick Timer Events (yeah, they call it Timer in the game, not Time) was cutting edge and innovative. Nowadays QTEs are slowly fading away. The new God of War won't have any and the general reception of QTEs are very negative. A shame, really.

[@shivasthong4924]

Yes he did.

[@roastingpotato]

And they just left him there... that's dark....

[@PoopyJoeTheAlpaca]

*Gets throat slashed open by a school girl* "What a wimp!"

[@ShenmueChannel]

For some reason he still lives after getting his throat slit though lol

[@BruhMoment93_]

There's something really funny to see the emontionless stoic Ryo getting punkassed like a chump XD

[@whoEnglishYT]

Oh man, this is such a colossal piece of work! Thank you so much for showing all these screwups. Poor Ryo haha

[@fernandopaxeco7709]

Shenmue is awesome! There still scenes I haven't seen in all these years

[@raer5373]

3:40 Ahhhh the classic phrase.

[@SolidMGSnake]

So many variations in the QTE scenes. One of the reasons I love this game. Thanks for editing these together.

[@gazda9272]

That first QTE fail is more depressing than Ryo dying in every possible way.

[@TheOrangeMatty]

I always cringe when I see Ryo failing these QTE's, It just makes him look pretty terrible lol.

[@amurilloreno]

I know what you mean XD He was supposed to be a Jujitsu Protege, one that everybody see as someone with high reflex and almighty guard up! Failing simple QTE would certainly reduce that honor.

[@ShenmueChannel]

Some of the ways Ryo gets beat up are pretty badass on the opponents part though.

[@DJ_Curlyhead]

I'm sure his dad is looking from the afterlife and said, 'THIS is supposed to be my son?'

[@latinalover26]

Did it really happened

[@ShenmueChannel]

Nice compilation! Its nice to see more people upload videos of the Shenmue QTE fails since those type of videos were so rare before I joined. Love the quality. :D

[@QuickTimeFailure]

Thanks dude. I've been trying to make a Shenmue 2 video for awhile but I've been stuck at the 4 Wude part because it keeps crashing on me. Hopefully I can get it going some day.

[@ShenmueChannel]

QuickTimeFailure That sucks that the game keeps crashing. There are a lot of different QTE fails in Shenmue II than Shenmue I that are easily missable. For example certain Command QTES (mostly the Yellow Head Duck Stand QTE, Ren QTE Fight, and the Yuan Chainsaw QTE) have different fail outcomes depending on how much of the QTE is inputted correctly. Also Arm Wrestling has QTEs when stalling, and stalling on move instructions trigger Command QTES to input. Also in the original NTSC-J Japanese Dreamcast version as you are probably well aware Yuan was a man in this version, and the QTE fails with the Chainsaw originally faded out to red but were changed to fade out to white on the other versions.

[@LBPreviews]

I laughed out loud as soon as Kayako got nailed by that ball in the first scene. This will be a good video lol

[@supermariofan03]

I keep failing the 11:15 one, because I kept laughing my ass off at these fails, I couldn’t keep focus! “Ouch!” “Sorry Ono San!” “I’ll explain!”

[@strappinggermanlad]

6:55 what's up with that kid doing a perfect freeze? guess this scene wasn't made for wide-screen?

[@QuickTimeFailure]

Pretty much. This game didn't have a widescreen mode so what I did was use a hack to allow widescreen in an emulator (along with bumping the internal resolution by 3x). The downside is that because the game was never meant to be viewed in widescreen, you'll either see stuff that you weren't supposed to happen on the sides of the screen or a crazy amount of pop-in. Example: Go to 11:10 and check out the stairs on the right side of the screen.

[@mskiara18]

I give my gratitude for recording and sharing these videos here.

[@roddydykes7053]

8:27 it’s so weird hearing the “hole” part thrown in, which is usually not allowed in T-Rated games
