Re: Funnest Ways to Play Shenmue

Probably the funnest way to play Shenmue besides the typical route of triggering all the hidden cutscene, training and collecting until the cows come etc. is to let Ryo act like a fool by failing at every point in the game where it won't result in a retry. I call that a "Failzuki" run.
Shenmue has a handfull of scenes where you can do that, like getting beaten during the schoolgirls QTE in the harbor or acting so stupid during the forklift training that Mark will give up to teach Ryo how to operate it properly.

Shenmue II is much better in this regard and that's where I originally coined the term "Failzuki". There are a ton of scenes after losing fights or failing QTEs. Especially the whole quest of getting the stolen bag back is full of them.

Re: Secrets and Easter Eggs

Joy takes the money that Ryo owes to Ren Dan? When is that supposed to happen. I usually don't pay him nowadays and I never noticed any money was gone missing and there definately wasn't a scene for that. :shock:

By the way, I advice you to add the following to your list. It's a criminally overlooked and highly entertaining scene:
Here's one I just discovered...

While you're airing out books at Man Mo Temple, go to Godhead Fortunetellers and have your fortune told. He'll tell you that Zhu's footsteps are in the "old city" (Wise Men's Qtr.) and that you should go to Wise Men's Kung Fu. But, instead of going there, waste time during the day and don't gather any new information.
The next morning, when Ryo goes to air out the books, you'll get a cutscene with Fangmei I've never seen before. She'll be sweeping and forget her dust pan, and then bump into Ryo from around the corner. Ryo catches her broom and apologizes, then he askes about Yuanda Zhu. Fangmei says she remembered seeing the name on a book called Wulinshu in the temple library. Pretty cool alternate way to get the info.

Re: Japan + Legalized Casinos + Sega = Shenmue III??

Sound interesting but it's a pretty long shot to assume that a boost in revenue on Sammy's side will ultimately result in Shenmue III getting developed. It might raise the possibilitly of them risking something and to invest money in the project. But who knows how long it will take until the actually make more money. 2020 is far away...

Re: Chi you men boss of the bosses??

The fortune telling is only a vague hint where you can find her. It's purely geographically because the Black Heaven Bldg is in the north of Kowloon and Chunyan could be considered the nothern fighter of the bunch. The animal isn't hinted but black and north do match. Rod is the Phoenix (Phoenix Bldg.), Greg is the Dragon (Blue Dragon Garden) and then there is Baihu who is the Tiger. The area you fight him in was actually supposed to be called Tiger Gate Bldg during developement (there is a left over load screen afair).

Shenmue loves the legend of the four heavenly beasts and it's repesented in quite a few situations.

Re: Sony Is Trying To Bring Shenmue To Playstation

Well like I made Ryo express earlier, this is mighty disappointing. It's a missed chance of more publicitiy and it just feels like Shenmue fans got cheated. You can actually say that it goes beyond feeling, becasue it actually is the truth.

The numbers just don't match and if you read the article then Shenmue is not only never mentioned, they also say that Timesplitters was a close second and they can't talk themselves out of that anymore.
But sometimes that's just the way it goes... Oh what's that they all vote for? Shenmue? Nah we can't list that, I've never played that and I won't because it never was on a PlayStation. So it doesn't count anyway!

Re: Random Shenmue Thoughts

I like how you can get away from the security guards. I knew about that, discovered that a few years ago, but it's nice to see it getting mentioned here. On my recent playthrough the last few days I did that once for fun while wasting all the days until Shozo gives you all the hints. I have to say that the guards seem a lot easier then all those years ago when I first played the game. They are sometimes so slow that they don't even catch up to Ryo running at half speed. Had to stop so I got caught.

Did you know that you can actually execute the whole moves during the teaching of the Double Blow, Shadow Step, Swallow Flip and Tornado Kick when you're supposed to just do the steps first? The person who teaches you will react impressed upon Ryo's quick learning of the move. Did that wherever possible during my recent playthrough, was something new for me.

About the sunrise. Is it actually possible to stay awake that long during the search for the bars? I know you can stay up well into the night but afair you still get teleported back home at 3 or 4 a.m.

One more thing. Does anybody know if the Shenmue Dojo channel or anyone else on YouTube has the "Shamisen version" of Shenhua's theme uploaded? It's a very short loop that plays close to the vending machine besides the Ajiichi during the new year's week. I never heard that until my recent playthrough as I usually always finish the game before that point in time and I found that quite interesting. I think it should go into the Dojo's channel's music collection to make it absolutely complete, if it isn't uploaded yet.

Re: What are the chances the game is in development?

Who knows... It could very well be in development hell since more then a decade. It most likely is as there definately has to be some material that goes beyond Shenmue II that hasn't surfaced. Sega is known to leak like a rusty bucket when it comes to Sonic but Shenmue stuff is tightly sealed. They seem to keep that IP under super high top secret level or else we would have some early beta or even Saturn stuff by now.

The current situation is of course interesting and a lot of thing point in one direction, that Shenmue III eventually is in the making (again) right now. This stuff has been said countless times by now already but that what most of the community is thinking right now. I can only repeat that I'm pretty optimistic since all the recent good news.

Let's just hope that they really just keep things under wraps really good and that Shenmue III is actually somewhat far in development. Though I wouldn't mind waiting 2-3 more years for the development process if it get's announced this year.

Re: Old lady in Sakuragaoka giving hint to translate the let

Finally got her to appear after I looked at the notebook guide for some hints. You have to go to the Ajiichi first, get the hint that Guangji could help and when you find him at the vending machine don't buy him a drink. When you walk back to Sakuragaoka the old lady will be there and you have to talk to her twice to get the hint about Xia.
I was a sunny day and close to 3 p.m. just as a side note.

Re: Random Shenmue Thoughts

I know how you feel Giorgio. Had the same experience. English isn't my native language and I didn't find the english dub bad at all. Of course back then it was revolutionary large for a game and was pretty good in general but since the standards got higher and higher it seems cheaper and cheaper. I think people tend to exaggerate when it comes to the voices. There are much MUCH worse dubs. Anyone, even those that don't have English as their native language can tell that the dub of Shenmue II is WAY worse and also why. The voice actors sound bored and unemotional as hell or way over the top to the point of just being silly.

I still really like the English dub of the first game. It really isn't bad. All the main voices are pretty good and pleasant to listen to. Some NPCs do sound awkward, they always did. The problem with the english dub lies more in the recording quality. They did a poor job there, the voices tend to be overly loud, to the point of clipping and it seems the recording studio was has a microphone in an regual ol' empty living room. There is such reverb in so many lines...
Then again, in Shenmue the Movie the voices sound really good. Much clearer, no clipping and no reverb. The dub just get's soooo much better with that quality.

The Japanese dub is generally of higher quality. The recordings are cleaner, without the issue and some lines are actually less compressed and sound WAY cleaner then anything in the English dub (in the game). The voices are also generally better, because they just had more know-how over there. Also it's really just so authenic, especially because the Americans speak broken Japanese with a lot of English inbetween.
There are some voices that don't sound so good here too, though. Master Chen for example has a very "throaty" voice that just sounds voice and annoying at the same time.

It's still really strange to meet her roaming around freely. What's funny is that she is voiced by the same actress as Xia-san and in that dialog she doesn't try to sound much different. Strange coincedence that she leads you to another old lady with the same voice.

By the way, she's still roaming around in Sakuragaoka the next day early in the morning, while it's snowing.
So I guess the time and weather don't have much to do with it. It seems to just be the failed route with Guangji that makes her appear.

Re: Fuku-san helping out in the basement?

Oh yeah, it finally worked! Thanks a lot, Radar!
Fuku-san is really funny when he comes down the second time. He's totally creeped out about the place, it really scares him. Man I just LOVE Shenmue to no end... even after maybe already up to 30 playthroughs and hundreds of discoveries, there is STILL something new to discover. The game just never stops to give! [-o<

You really just have to run around the basement for 2 hours straight without stopping long or locking on to anything. Basically just run, walk or move the camera around the whole time. Standing around or looking at things won't do it. That's the point!

I'm pretty sure the two notebook entries in the Dojo are triggered the same way. I think I'm going to try this out soon and record all that rare footage of Fuku-san. Also might send the writer of the guide on GameFAQs the info about these entries. Both so future Shenmue players will always know how to get these.

Two picture for you to enjoy until then:

Fuku-san helping out in the basement?

Okay, this is another "unsolved mystery" of Shenmue. I just can't figure out how to get this obscure scene where Fuku-san is coming down into the basement and gives Ryo some tips.

I'm currently going for a complete notebook and the quest to find the Phoenix mirror is really irritating around that time. There are two entries that are supposed to appear when you take 2 hours each while searching the Dojo. They didn't appear when I tried and since even the notebook guide is unsure how to get these I kinda gave up on them and moved into the basement where more of that waiting is supposed to give notebook entries. Since there's actually a screenshot of Fuku-san in the basement in Prima's official guide I had to try this one out no matter what, since I've never seen that!

Well, I had no luck and I have no idea how to make Fuku-san come down there. I tried looking at everything besides the things that give notebook entries and a lot of waiting until Ryo went to bed. I reloaded and tried again, this time just standing around the basement until 4 a.m. That's doing nothing for 19 hours!

How do you get all those entries and especially the scene with Fuku-san? Are there any prerequisites before starting to search for the mirror? Seems there have to be some or the game would simply give the scenes when you take too long while trying to figure things out.

Re: The Missing Sword

This is a in-game piece of dialogue Ryo says to himself when the user attempts to select the hand guard while holding the sword or vise virsa yes? If you have both with you in the Dojo and haven't messed with the hanging scrolls yet you can press A on the selected hand guard from the menu and you can watch Ryo try to put it over the sword.

I also thought about it being strange that they don't fit together, yet you see Iwao use the sword with the hand guard in a flashback. There is a very simple explanation though. The handguard get's attached from the other side, by removing the grip somehow, so it's tightly secured between the blade and the grip. Imagine it would just be pushed over the blade. The enemy could just pull it off your sword in combat, not really a good idea...
Why Ryo doesn't know how to properly attach it to the sword is beyond me.
Maybe Iwao just didn't tought him that or any sword combat whatsoever.

I'm no expert on swords but I heard this from a buddy who probably read it somewhere and I think it makes sense.

Re: How does shenmue hold up today?

To me Shenmue is just a timeless game that doesn't seem to age like other games did and still do.
It was THAT special when it came out. So much that it's still something unique to this day. The attention to detail is so incredible for a game made in the last century. It goes beyond the limits of the graphics itself. The music is also extremely strong and timeless. The free music is just pure magic!

The freedom in the game may not be able to rival todays sandbox games but Shenmue is an action adventure and for that genre it still delivers an incredible amount of ways for the player to spend time with it.

Above all else it's the characters and the story that stand the test of time. The facial animations and the voice acting have aged but the characters are still very believable and just extremely likeable. It might be slow, it may seem boring and it will take a bit of time to get into, but once you reached a certain point you'll just get sucked in this incredible experience.

The game just had a huge impact on me when I played it the first time back in 2000. Like described above it took a bit of time until I got sucked into the vortex of it's magic but then I absolutely fell in love with it. Over time it never got old. On the contrary! I still to this day discover new things, find new ways to enjoy the game and fall in love with it deeper and deeper. It's almost to the point that you could talk about "possesShen". Yeah I know, terrible pun. :lol:

Re: How old were you when you first played Shenmue?

Looking at the posts so far, a pattern is already starting to shape. Except for Radar everyone so far is in a rather close together group of 12-16 years old. I'd say that's a good age to get sucked into a game. At that age it's easy to get attached to something as your still growing up and learn, thus are "shapeable". But you can already understand and appreciate what's going on well enough. Well, I guess...

Once the enemy is grabbed you have to press X for the first armlock extension and then X+A for the second one on the ground, both with the right timing. I have trained it to moderate in that playthrough but despite the description implying that it changes I didn't notice any visual differences.

Re: Fantasy Elements in Shenmue III

I'd personaly hate it if Shenmue III would go as far as Shenmue Online did. That's just too much, no matter how you look at it.
If I could choose I'd like Shenmue to have no supernatural element at all. The games just put so much focus on creating a realistic world that I honestly don't like that stuff in Shenmue. I don't really mind the stuff that happens at the end of Shenmue II anymore but the first few times it really made me cringe.

I hope they don't go overboard in the further chapters. As long as they have good explanations why Shenmue has powers and that the mirrors have some mysterious force I'm happy. They really could've went without the floating sword though...

Re: How many of you used Shenmue as a resource to learn Engl

Hey, don't count Germany to etc. :P

I can't quite match what the guy in the blog wrote but at the base of it I've had similar experiences.
I was already pretty far with English in school when I first played Shenmue so I was able to understand most of the game right away. It still helped me getting better though. That something that just happens if you're "forced" to take the entire thing in English and when you like it, you automatically attach to it and get the best teaching you could ever have!

Years later the internet contributed a hell of a lot more to my English. All the websites, forums and especially online shows like the AVGN helped me to get better and better, way beyond what you learn in school. You just get to know the language much more "natural" that way. Similar to the guy in the blog, I don't think about grammar or verb tenses when I write something, even though I learned that stuff in school many years ago. I just write, it just flows naturally. I don't even have to think in my native language anymore and carefully transalte what I want to express. I just think in English right away. :D

I also have a little story with Japanese as well. Shenmue II's Japanese dub teached me a couple of words though that's about it. I can barely form sentences in Japanese and reading is even worse, let alone writing. That's because I never cared as much as I maybe should have. I never touched any other Japanese material then Shenmue II, besides the random game that has a Japanese dub where I understand certain words that I learned from Shenmue.

Oh well, hopefully it was interesting enough to read my stuff.

The way Goro is introduced, including the legendary blackmail line, the entire way he behaves and his theme song alone make him the greatest character in the game. All the funny dialoge he's in with Ryo... Goro is simply awesome!

If you're shooting for more serious character then I'd say Guizhang. He might be the typical fan favorite but he deservse it. He's just a cool guy and has a unique fighting style that he manages to pull of in a buisiness suit. That's some serious style right there!

Re: Angriest you've ever gotten at Shenmue?

That's one of the moments in the game that always baffles me. For some reason it forces you to come back the next day. Usually it's too late for the meeting, wich I guess is before or during the lunch break. This is a really dumb decission as you always run around and ask the stupid harbor workes dozends of times where to find a job.

I managed to get it him to show up the same day once. Went into the arcade early, showed Chai who's boss and then went to Jimmy and then straight to the harbor. There I talked about to the guy in front of the gate next to warehouse 18 and then with the foreman inside the warehouse. He'll tell you that he saw a young guy around warehouse 12 that recently got a job or something, basically leading you towards Goro. And tada, he showed up immediately.

Re: PS4, big new announcement next month

It could be anything really. But the chances of it beeing Shenmue (III or HD remakes or even both) are pretty high this time. Next month is going to show if all the signs are going in one direction or if we all misunderstood them and the post mortem event will just reveal Yu's spiritual successor...
