Exact revenge. He'd reflect on the bonds he COULD'VE had with Nozomi and Fang Mei, the latter of who had a VERY sweet moment where she confessed her feelings to Ryo, stating in a soft, girly voice after embracing him tightly, "I love you.

    For it’s time, Shenmue was pioneering and groundbreaking, and not only that, criminally under appreciated.
    The QTE system was immense, and the combat system was (as has been alluded to) a more rudimentary VF system. Shenmue II’s system obviously evolved greatly, but I was surprised by how engaging the combat was on 1.
    Every blow was felt. lol

    • @SURU_
      @SURU_  Год назад +19

      Couldn't agree more. Even after all these years, I believe the Shenmue series has the best QTE system. Even short cutscenes have multiple outcomes that play out where you can still succeed depending if you miss one or more QTE, giving a unique experience for each player. Almost every other game's QTEs just has a "pass" or "fail" cutscene and sends you back to the beginning if you mess up. The amount of detail and love that went into the QTE system is second to none!
      Tbh, after playing a good amount of Shenmue 2 lately, I can't decide which game's combat is more enjoyable for me. S1 requires more execution with it's complex inputs, manual throw escapes, wacky combo system, etc. As a whole, S1's combat feels very satisfying once you get the hang of it and has a lot of depth.

    Let me tell you as a single digit year old kid playing Shenmue for the first time the year it came, it blew my mind when you get into your first fight after spending hours wandering/ messing around with money and all the little things. Up to that point i was unsure about all the game mechanics.
    This game is definitely a product of it's time, and sadly this along with the Dreamcast in general just had such a small window of time where it was in the spotlight and the "new best thing". Within a couple years or so the GameCube and PS2 blew up and nobody knew or cared what a Dreamcast was.
    I wouldn't change my childhood though, this game was the most impactful game on there and it led to so many good memories and inside jokes/references between my siblings to this day. I remember how horrified i was when i learned the sequel wouldn't be released on the Dreamcast in the US 😂.

      Exactly! The closest we've gotten to souls like difficulty is the Izumi fight in Shenmue 2. She's basically Sarah on steroids haha

    Anyone who mastered the move set will tell you that there is so much choice in how you customise the main characters strengths, I wasn't able to really get there as the only 10 year old I knew who had a dc. I played it again recently and despite the jankiness in the beginning once you get a hold of it it is actually amazing.

    Clunky nature aside, I do wish Yakuza's combat had the freedom of Shenmue's in terms of move learning/development. I wouldn't be averse to seeing a Ryo Hazuki goes down the dark path aspect to one of the Yakuza games. Imagine, a jaded older Ryo, consumed by hatred who just batters everyone lmao.

      the amount of combat encounters in the first two games measures in the low double digit and out of that handful, most of them are so boring and easy you can get through them spamming the same two buttons over and over

    The problem, to me at least, isn't that it's "boring" it's that you spend more time doing investigative work rather than fighting, so it's difficult to come to grips with the controls and the flow of fights since there's hardly any chances to practice. So even though I am almost 6 hours in, I hardly have enough material to attest whether or not it's boring.
