I rarely, if ever, found myself stuck and unsure of where I needed to go next in the way I often did when playing the first two adventures. The structure of the gameplay is streamlined, combat isn’t as overcomplicated (but still remains challenging), training and improving your abilities makes more sense, and making progress is just generally better. That’s not to say there isn’t a compelling experience here – it just feels out of time and doesn’t reward the Shenmue faithful with meaningful revelations in the story.The good news is that nearly everything about Shenmue 3 improves on the two games that came before it in some way.

In many ways, Shenmue 3 is a stark reminder of the leaps and bounds developers have made in the last 20 years. Time has not been kind to that original game, nor its 2001 sequel, as video game stories and performance capture tech have improved drastically. You lived Ryo Hazuki’s life, developing relationships and maintaining a day job in your Japanese hometown, all while trying to track down your father’s murderer so you could extract vengeance. The story of Shenmue began 20 years ago, and for its time the original game was an undeniable marvel in video game storytelling and world-building.
