Holy crap, Shenmue 3? I completely forgot about that game. I was trying, with difficulty, to describe what type of game it was. A mundane life simulator? Kind of like Myst, in the sense there are puzzles? I have no clue.
I was blown away by the original on the Dreamcast. Well, blown away and kind of bored. The graphic where top of the line, and the environments were amazing. I remember when the developer said that he had 9 games planned, and that he had this huge saga in mind. The first one is evidence of that. Forklift simulator? I think the first one cost too much, and didn't sell well enough to warrant 8 other games, so they compressed the story for the second game.
Every story needs an ending, and I'm glad Shenmue is getting one. Are there fans out there still? I got kickstarted in 9 hours, so I'd say yes. I hope it was worth the wait.
