Isn't Shenmue 3 like... terribad though? I'm remembering watching some reviews and the end result was that the entire game is just a waste of time and doesn't actually progress the story of anything.

Dunno, you tell me, i don't care about others opinions on it, i bought to play it and find out what it entails.

Pretty sure the whole point was that Shenmue 2 ended on a cliffhanger, and people didn't get a sequel for however many years, then 3 came out and it explicitly goes nowhere, wastes your time, and then ends on a cliffhanger again.

Yes, but a game is more than it's story, enjoy the ride and experience, hope a 4th comes out.

 

Originally Shenmue was going to be a massive spanning saga, way more than 3 games so really, blame your misinformed critics.

The ride is tedium.

 

That may be true, but it didn't get past 2 and it's unlikely it'll get another chance at 4 after the wet fart that was 3.

You have an option to buy it or not, your option is not buying...

Oh. Okay. It's just I said "The game is boring" and replying with "That's your option" is a bit odd.

Alright, moving on.

You overpaid. It's hit $4.99 and $6.99 on Epic for two separate two and a half week periods in late May to mid June and again in late October to early November.

Yup...

But that doesn't mean people won't buy and play it.

 

I mean, people play and enjoy a game like Plague Inc Evolved. I'll never understand it.

I've played the free mobile version and kind of enjoyed it. Yeah it's a strange concept, but it kind of reminds me of a strategy board game of sorts. I would never pay $15 for it though. $5 would be a much more reasonable price tag for a game like that.

It used to be a free flash game on Newgrounds n such. I'm not paying a dime for it.

I won't respond to this. The conversation that takes place afterwards always ends up just being as silly as can be. I'll just keep never understanding people. People still buy garbage bags in 2020. And I'll never understand it.

My impression from fans of 1 and 2 is that, to the people who love Shenmue 1 and 2 and who wanted Shenmue 3 to be made, Shenmue 3 is perfect and everything they hoped it would be. It's exactly the same style and kind of experience as 1 and 2, including all its eccentricities which they love and which non-fans take as examples of the game being bad.

Well go watch people collect garbage bags then instead of commenting.

I said people buy garbage bags.

 

Why pay triple the price for a game when the exact same game is $4.99 on a different launcher? I'll never understand it just like I'll never understand why people buy garbage bags when they're already free every time you go grocery shopping.

we pay for our bags. Why do you feel a need to over share your opinions? It is just a video game. Show us on the bear where Yu Suzuki touched you.

Why would... why would people not buy garbage bags? What else do you put garbage in?
