    Shenmue

    Franchise »

    Created by Yu Suzuki, the Shenmue franchise follows the story of Ryo Hazuki, the son of a martial arts master, as he searches for his father's killer. It was groundbreaking in its time, for its impressive graphics, realism, open-world adventure gameplay, real-time weather, NPC schedules, and of course QTE cut-scenes.

    Better late than never - Guess how many parts the Shenmue Endurance Run will be. The sooner you guess, the more you can gloat for being right.

    Guess: 33 Parts

    Around 20. Dan's former employer Game Informer did a super replay (endurance run) and it was 20 EPS in 1 hour chunks each. They are pretty close to the same spot at the same time.

    If things continue as they are, 25.
    If they run into more "WHERE IS IT?!" episodes, 30.

    107 if the episode where they looked for the key for an hour is par for the course.

    Shenmue is not that long if you don't spend your time collecting all the capsule toys, casettes, Saturn games etc so it's not going to be anywhere near as many as the Persona 4 ER. The episodes seem to be getting shorter than one hour now some are just 30min so I say about 30 episodes.

    HLTB says it takes about 22 hours, with the slower pace they're taking fluctuating between 1h/40min parts I'd guess around 28 parts.

    Without knowing the game and other video series of it I'm guessing 45 episodes. But according to comments here the game seems shorter than that.

    28-30 seems about right for the pace they're going. Could be shorter, but Vinny loves to poke around, so I doubt it.

    I haven't seen any of this besides clips featuring Fire Boylt, but I like being the statistical outlier. Put me down for 57
