It's so weird that I remember every inch of the "level" geometry, including the location of all the shops in Dobuita, but I don't recall ANY of these plot points.

But I really enjoyed the fighting. It's odd that none of them comment on the Virtua Figtherness of it, did they not play those games? I recall this project started as Virtua Fighter RPG.

Next Generation Magazine said that this was the best. game. ever.

They also said the Blair Witch 2 was the best. sequel. ever.

and then they split their magazine in two, half of it being some entertainment thing.

I loved that magazine at the time. Shenmue was cool too.

I also thought Howard the Duck was a pretty good movie when it first game out.

THAT GUY ATE A TICKET!

41 minutes in, all worth it.

This reminds me of when I tried to go back to Zork. I thought, hey, I'm an adult now, I'm a smart guy, I can get through this. Eventually I read through a walkthrough to see how to actually get through that game, it was nonsense.

I played Shenmue when it was new, and it was fun to play a crazy ambitious adventure game, warts and all, but yeah, its hard to go back.

I am complete

I live about 8 miles away, but I haven't been to that part of downtown LA since an E3 in the 90s. Looks like a totally different city in this video. Or a really big mall.

Thank you.
