Amir Posted November 26, 2019 Author Share Posted November 26, 2019 Just now, Dazey said: But is it any good? I've read all sorts of mixed reviews. Does it live up to expectations? In my case, no, because it fails to advance the plot in any meaningful way. I knew it wasn't going to end the story, but I also didn't expect it to contribute nothing to the overarching main story. I'll write an article about this soon, but it seems in the course of development, priorities shifted from plot to gameplay. I actually dug the gameplay loop and systems like combat, but I can't bring myself to replay it when it answers precisely none of the questions I've had for eighteen years :/ Other fans seem happy, though, so good for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadSlash Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Not sure if anyone is fan enough to care, but Shenmue III is free on Humble Bundle this month for subscribers! I literally thought of this thread from way back in the day when I saw that. WTF is wrong with me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
