Very interesting review on the Shenmue trilogy; specially considering the fact that Shenmue 2 is considered by the majority of the fans to be the best in the series. I enjoyed all three games on its own way and I sincerely hope that we get Shenmue IV in the near future because this series really deserves to be concluded and turn into a video game cult classic among many gamers.

The end of 2 when you walk with Shenua was the best part of the series. There is so much world and character building being done in such a clean and realistic way. Think of the riding horses with people in Red Dead 2, except with loads of multiple dialogue options.

As somebody who never played shenmue until the ps4 versions, i think shenmue 2 has a few glaring problems. The quick time events are RIDICULOUSLY hard, grinding for money is very boring, and nobody mentions this, but there’s no interactivity like opening up random drawers. Did they forget about that mechanic from shenmue 1? Also the random shops are pointless. In shenmue 1 at least the people in the stores would give you clues sometimes. But in shenmue 2 there’s no point of really going into any of them. Shenmue 3 is a bit underrated. Fans shit on it but I thought it was a pretty chill game to play.

To like Shenmue is to have a deeper understanding of martial arts and asian cultures. I guess some people will never get it but no matter how many negative, entitled videos about how "bad" it is (like when death stranding came out and Hideo Kojima said Americans just dont get it) it has its fans that love its story and its pace of gameplay. Im a bit sick of garbage youtubers bashing this game. Its like god the first game came out in 1999 and the second in 2001 so due to limitations of the hardware and the way games where made back then (voice acting) it has its faults. If I dont like a game I dont do a whole half hour video trashing it just for views or to feel im smart for criticizing, just say not for me and play games I do like. And you played Shenmue 2, 3 times? It cant be that bad. Sick of people bashing Shenmue!! Criticizing japanese toilets as well is bit pathetic as not everwhere in the world is like 'merica.

People are free to think whatever they want about Shenmue 3, it certainly came with the baggage of expectation considering how long it'd been coming, but the faux outrage some whiny KZbinrs have come up with is . . . endemic of outrage culture I guess. I feel pretty confident that no Shenmue fan expected the story to be wrapped up in 3, especially since Yu Suzuki has been saying FOR YEARS that it would take at least 5 games. Personally I liked the slow pace, and considering this game may never have come into being, I'm thankful it exists and I had fun. I'm on board for what comes next

You should add a "degraded" filter to your "pseudo-fake voice sound clips" (when you talk over your own actual game play). It would make is sound more authentic, and convey to the audience that it's what your reaction was like when you were playing the game (with a different microphone).
