If you liked Shenmue I & II there's really no reason to avoid this game. It's a bit jarring going straight into III after beating II due to the graphical difference in the character models. The gameplay is a bit different too, but it is still very familiar and easy to pick up. I'm glad I finally gave these games a chance all these years later. I played about an hour of the original game back on the Dreamcast and then didn't have the patience back then to discover what a gem that game really is. Hopefully III continues to keep the momentum going, and hopefully IV will eventually see the light of day now that I am a Shenmue fan.

I think it's pretty rad that the devs took to heart all of the criticism of the first two games being slow and clunky and made the game even slower and clunkier.

I recommend Downloading forklift loader and the no stamina loss mod. It is two simple files you drop in a folder and it changes the game. It is everything I could have hoped for in a Shenmue game. It is addictive and IMO combines the original with modern take. Sure, it can;t ever be as good as 1 and 2 and I didn't expect it to be. It is a great continuation of the story and well worth the price. I am shocked to see that it wasn't as well received as it deserved.

Set my expectations suuuper low for this and actually ended up having a decent time. It's far from a "good" game and it manages to somehow be worse than it's 20+ year old predecessors in many ways (combat, I'm looking at you) but it has that good old "Shenmue charm" in spades. If you know what that is, Shenmue 3 is for you.

I would reccomend to Shenmue fans, but not to someone looking to into the series or casual gamer. I love the first two Shenmue games, but 3 is a more "meh" title and probaly killed off the series if it was going to be anything. Nothing new is really brought fourth in this Shenmue game. Still left with unanswered questions. Not my favorite but as a fan, I like it. Not love it.
