There's also less notalgia due to the multiple areas you can explore and the music is "different" now read carefully, I mention "different" not better or nostalgic. Tracks like "Rain" the FREE music "Loneliness" and also flashback music "Memories of distant days" The fights are also more challenging whilst Shenmue 2 makes everything piss easy and no I do not see Ryo developing as a character but instead goofing around with Fangmei and Joy. Shenmue 1 has it all and is the "real" Shenmue experience game in my eyes. I know I sound harsh but I'm just expressing my opinion.

I get the feeling that people don't look under the surface as much in II or simply forget all the stuff it has to offer.
Now this might not be a prime example right here but I just wanted to get this out.

Shenmue 2's Kowloon was amazing and the best area as Henry stated however the atmosphere never changed and so it always stayed the same apart from NPCs and so this took time. Time went slower in 2 and I wish it would go faster so we can see day by day, just like Shenmue 1 and to experience a more real-life atmosphere. 2 is great, don't get me wrong, I'm not entirely shitting on it. It's just different and not my liking.
