I'm not, I'm disappointed. I LOVE 1 & 2. But I feel Shenmue 3 is too much repetitive activities with unnecessary grinding added into the game to make it 40 hours long. The voice acting is fine but the mouths don't move in sync with the words they speak. I see a few pop in here and there in cut scenes as well. I really don't like the training system. The one inch punch and horse stance training is annoying. The sparring and fighting monks is fine just the building up of endurance, kung fu and I think the 3rd one is Stamina, that takes too long. It gets repetitive and boring quickly. Plus the running out of energy so you need to buy food constantly and make money constantly and run back and forth constantly between "missions" to do all this is repetitive, boring and annoying. It was made to added additional hours of gameplay so Yu Suzuki can say Shenmue 3 is twice as large as the first 2. Never thought I'd say this but Shenmue 3 has turned me off to the series. I am not even interested in Shenmue 4 at this point.

I played Shenmue 1 and 2. They were both fun to play multiple times. Shenmue 3 is not fun, it's boring, repetitive, the pacing of the game is off, too much grinding required that it's just an over load of grinding, the MPC mouths don't move in correlation to the words they're saying so it looks odd. Game is a 6/10 at best. Sure, the music is the same, the visuals and environments are beautiful but that's it. I really also like that Ryo kind of has a filthy mouth and some of the dialogue between the thugs and Ryo is quite hilarous, the thugs say some funny things to insult Ryo.

Shenmue was my gaming youth. The graphics, storyline and characters were astounding back then. Sad to say but I must have played and completed shenmue 1+2 atleast 4 times. I can't believe this day has finally arrived! Shenmue 3 is an perfect ode to the originals in every aspect. I can't put it down 5 hours in. Thank Yu!!! 😉

I'm going to be honest. Mostly to myself. When I booted it up, and the game just immediately picked up where the second game ended...I started crying like a little child. 18 years of waiting and a lot of pent up emotions...the last 18 years just started to flash before my eyes, and I realized how much of an impact the original 2 games had on me to become the person I am today. And then I stopped. And then I started crying again. I never thought this day would come. I could only do the first 15 minutes before just breaking down in absolute tears after hearing some of the tunes. I have waited for this game for more than half of my life.

Ahhh Shenmue! The original two came out during a time where you had to "play" them to experience them. No Twitch, no KZread, no Mixer. A special time for gaming.

Just gotta say, the way you’ve talked about Shenmue over the years I’m so happy for you right now Johnny. Forget what I’m into or not, this must be wild for you! That’s an awesome special thing man

Your genuine enthusiasm is so refreshing and this puts a big smile on my face. Thanks for that.

I just subscribed to you channel. I love your emotion and passion. I Played Shenmue 1 back in the day but i only played a little under half of 2. Honestly idk why i never finished it , i was 19 back then and i honestly cant remember. I truly wished i did. Im replaying 1 now and wow its giving me flashback and feelings of what i felt back then when i played it for the first time. Great video and im looking forward to working my way through 1/2/3 now as a different person from the kid i was when i first played the first time

I tear up just hearing you talk about it. I'm gonna start playing now and my eyes are not dry :) Shenmue 1-2 will forever be my favorite games with Phantasy star online and i hope Shenmue 3 will join them.

I am so happy to finally be playing Shenmue 3. It's all I could ever ask for. A slow awkward incredible burn! I'm just stuck playing lucky hit and chopping wood!

Omg you are absolutely right with your impressions. My wife surprised me with this and I couldnt be happier! Im questioning if I really need that much sleep before work tomorrow and sad to leave it for tonight.. Its just magical to me and a mix of sad/happy comes over me. Onward into the world!

Dude, you are so infectious with your happiness. I've never played a Shenmue game but hearing your joy about Corey Marshall and David Hayter gave me some chills and I'm so happy for you!

What A BRILLIANT first thoughts/ video', Absolutely feelin' the vibes and emotions all the same bro..!!! Nice one :)

Man I love these vids, keep em coming Johnny!

I was so happy following this channel when I was waiting for shenmue 3s release. Beat 1&2 again before three of course and I loved (absolutely loved) how much love you also had for shenmue. It was like we were friends, it was like we grew up (despite the age differences), it was like you were speaking with so much care for the people like me who love and truly APPRECIATE SHENMUE. Next game I’m backing so much money and of course I’m buying it so fast.

Great energy and video. Shenmue was/is just so moving. I could tell immediately you’re a passionate fan. (That’s the only kind of Shenmue fan)

Shenmue is a special game to me. I played this with my best friend 19 years ago and we were probably the only ones that knew about it in our circle. We had a close bond until he tragically passed away this year, but we always wondered what part 3 would look like. He would have loved this and I know its going to be emotional for me playing it alone.

Great video! Your enthusiasm is very contagious. I got my backer copy in the mail today, but since I don't yet own a PS4 it'll be a while until I get to play it. I've purposely stayed away from playing any Shenmue since 2003, desperately clinging to a vague hope that maybe one day we will get Shenmue III and I can play through the story from the beginning a second time. It's almost imposible to believe but that day has now finally arrived, and I'd like to think I made the right decision all those years ago. Hopefully it'll lead to some genuine surprises in Shenmue 1 and 2. I remember a lot, but far from everything. I'm honestly not sure how I'll react to playing the game again all these years later. I can only hope I'll be able to reconnect with the old Shenmue magic, but regardless of how successful I am with that, I'm extremely happy it's released now. Yu Suzuki is probably very happy as well, and it's well deserved. He never gave up on bringing us the continuation of Ryo's story.

This is so awesome! My sister and I played Shenmue for hours and hours when it came out on the Dreamcast. Looking forward to picking this one up finally!!

My father passed away in 2015. he was a great player and fan of the game. I remember him playing 18 years ago. A lot of emotion.

Johnny. Thanks so much for this. You made me decide 100% to grab it. I LOVED 1&2. But I was so unsure. I feel bad for doubting yu suzuki. I’m all in now. The talk of emotion while you were playing made me smile. I missed that feeling with the games back when they first came out. I missed feeling that way about games when I was younger. Now I can feel it again. I can’t wait!

You got me convinced halfway through the vid. Will be buying it this weekend, thanks!

Great video! I also played the first Shenmue on the Dreamcast back in the day. I just started playing Shenmue III, first hour, and there's a lot of changes compared to the other games. I can't wait to see what other features are in the game.

I am a die hard Shenmue fan and I am blown away by this. It is exactly what I hoped for. With regards to the graphics, yes it's not exactly a graphical powerhouse of a game but look at the colours. It's absolutely beautiful. I'm so glad you enjoy it Johnny, of all the KZreadrs I watch, you are the Shenmue guy so been waiting to see your reaction. Enjoy it man, I certainly am.

I love your channel so much. Instead of talking about the games as products, you actually talk about them as experiences and the emotions they ignite in a relatable way. Before I saw this video the average reviews and the stale animations were off-putting, but this video makes me seriously consider picking up the remasters so I can play this.

I personally want to thank you for this, John. If not for your efforts here on KZread we would not be experiencing what we are right now! Thank you again. You’ve helped make gaming history: it’s true!

This is awesome! also been into Shenmue and one of the people that was into it back on Dreamcast while other friends had PS2.. What time we live in! also this comment's section wouldn't be the same without Adam Koralik chiming in! He is the pillar of the Shenmue community for sure in North America! good stuff to hear Johnny!

Thanks for a great review for a game that changed everything for me all those years ago. Shenmue was a Dreamcast classic, a game I played along side my nephews and it blew us all away.

Johnny, 8 years ago I saw your original Shenmue video and the love you have for the games and I instantly subscribed as I am such a HUGE Shenmue fan too. That video was the first I had ever seen about Shenmue and was so happy to see someone else's passion and love for the games. And ever since the Shenmue III announcement I have been looking forward to your initial thoughts video and I'm so happy that you are enjoying it! I myself LOVE Shenmue III! It's the most Shenmue game ever if that even makes sense ha ha! I'm about 6 hours into it and all I've been doing is one inch punches and chopping wood! Cannot wait to get stuck right back into it again tonight!

Johnny, I'm just gonna say as I watch your video, I feel your same emotion. Watching you has transplanted me back to 9/9/99 and I was the first person in line at Langley Air Force Base to buy a Dreamcast. A year later, I bought the game imo , started open world game's. That was 20 year's ago. I'm 52 now, Retired Navy, have grandkids and I'm still humbled that this game is a reality. I never thought it would happen. I'm literally feeling emotion from a time where my kid's were younger and so many game's gave us great memories. Granted, my oldest son finished Shenmue 2 on Xbox original before I did, but still, we hold a special place for Shenmue. We also hold a special place for Jade Empire and Fable: The Lost Chapters. I feel your emotion because this was a time where there wasn't greedy gaming companies, game's weren't half assed and relied on patches and there was no such thing as day 1 dlc. Just solid game's and fun, memorable character's. I'm with yah man. I feel what you feel. I just hope it doesn't take another 20 year's for Virtua Fighter 6. Keep up the awesome work my friend.

Just finished the game, I was fortunate enough for it to arrive on ps4 a day early. Holy hell, what an amazing experience. Glad you're enjoying it as well!

I have it and haven't played it yet. Bought a ps4 just for this. But...I need to pick up a controller. I have been waiting to hear from you and joe redifer. You all are my age and I love this series. I paid 80 dollars on ebay for shenmue 2. And received burned discs. They worked so i left positive feedback. That's how much I wanted to play 2.

I've never had my hands on Shenmue despite having been a Dreamcast owner back then (I was too busy with PSO) but your elation is contagious as I'd love to play it

I got the limited run special collectors version and it’s beast!!! It comes with a Dreamcast cast case that is dedicated to shenmue 3

Awesome vid! I bought a Dreamcast specifically to play Shenmue. This game has had a lasting impact on me. This series is the true definition of gaming :)

Sega made the ending of Shenmue 2 so off the wall mysterious. It wasn’t just mysterious, it was supernatural crazy. It changed the entire tone of the whole story. The reason the ending stuck with the fans for so long and why they wanted a sequel so desperately is they wanted to see how the third game would live up to that crazy ending. Shenmue 2 left everyone feeling sure as sure can be that a Shenmue 3 was going to be a crazy game. Filled with big emotions, supernatural twists, epic fighting, action sequences unlike anything yet to be seen in the series, learning all kinds of things about Lan Di, learning what happened to his father, seeing Shenhua unfold into an epic character, seeing her fall for Ryo. They introduce the new Niao Sun finally, fans felt sure she was going to be developed and found out about finally, since we’ve never known anything. I wondered if maybe she would fall in love with Ryo and cause an awkward split between shenhua and Ryo, maybe we’d see Ryo have more complex emotions finally…….literally none of this happened. Nothing even like it. Virtually no story. Shenmue 3 is literally about nothing else than “let’s find your father Shenhua”. I think the reason it fell flat for fans was that it didn’t even attempt to live up to what the ending of Shenmue 2 implied the sequel would be like. In fact, never was the floating sword acknowledged or explained. Like……like……sighhhhhhbbhhbhhhhhh

Well Im sold, but I will definitely have to play 1 and 2 first.

It's truly a magical moment that this game even exists and it makes me happy to see that the fans wishes have been fulfilled. 18 years is a long wait and all I have to say is: Welcome home Shenmue, we missed you.

I'm a die-hard Shenmue fan... Thank God 🙏 this came out. Thanks for the heartfelt review.

Huge fan of Shenmue (one of the greatest games I ever played). Played Shenmue 1 and 2 and can't wait to play Shenmue 3. Sounds like it was well worth the wait. Love your review by the way and thinking I will have the same feelings when I finally sit down to play it. I sure hope there is a Shenmue 4.

I'm so happy to see your reaction - I feel your emotions dude and now I cannot wait to play it. I absolutely loved the first games.... Oh man, here we go!!

Dude man, I totally feel you haha.. I was heartbroken every following year, just anticipating for this game. It really is a feel good heartwarming game ;)

Just started playing it today and was like you Johnny i felt right at home. It was you Johnny and your shenmue review on my shenmue rock that may me a life long fan of the series. I never got to play them until the ps4 remasters.

Can't believe it's been almost 20 years! Loved Shenmue from the start, can't wait to play Shenmue 3.

Great review ! I'll be picking mine up soon

Its amazing when a game takes you back to your childhood. Good to hear. I only beat the first game on the Dreamcast.

i dont know if i ever told you? your video game thoughts and reviews are the only one i trust ! 🤟🤟🤟🤟

Hey Mistah, u wanna wrestle? Lol I wonder if they’ll have the Santa in the city come Xmas time. Cool preview! Looking forward to playing it this weekend!

Glad it's living up to your expectations. It seems like the fans are liking this. I am not a Shenmue fan, as the game just doesn't work for me, but I am glad you guys finally got this.

We did it! I got it yesterday and can't wait to play! Feels great to see my name in the credits as well
