I am beginning production on quite a large video called "Why Is Shenmue So Special?". This video will go through and analyze many story and gameplay elements, along with audio, visuals and atmosphere contained within the game to describe what gives the game it's special charm or, the reason it has such a lasting impact.
What I ask of you all here is to share opinions, while a lot of this large what will possibly become a feature-length production will include are my own perspectives on this matter however, I want your perspectives as well. I want to know the things that make the game so inherently special to all of you from a thematic or mechanical perspective, these ideas will be discussed in this production to make a truly marvelous video.
Please share what you feel in this thread, I will post further updates on production and may ask for additional assistance in the future, thank you.
