Following NPCs should be the last resort if you get stuck, it's so slow...

Unfortunately, I have to agree that something feels off. I liked the calm playthrough of the first game but I suspect that it helped that I started watching after they completed the game. That way I could watch a few episodes closer to each other. The fact that they play about once per week makes them forget a lot too. They also seem quite disengaged letting people walk them to their destination all the time. So there's no interaction with store owners, no exploration of shops out of curiosity, ... It takes you out of the game world instead which defeats the purpose a bit. Especially with games like Shenmue.

Re: Shenmue 2 - Game Informer Super Replay
Posted: Fri Nov 18, 2016 11:33 pmI just watched episode 5 and 6. I knew about emulation related audio issues but didn't know that they got that obvious at times.
Related to my earlier remarks :
They said now that they should explore more since part of the games is to "exist" within the world. So they do get the series
It just felt earlier that they maybe weren't very interested which would suck for them. But a bit later they mention enjoying the game. Just struggling a bit due to its age. I guess gameplay mechanics?

Do they? They say they do but they don't seem to act like it, to be fair though if you watch their other Super Replays they seem to rip into all games.
Be very interesting to see how they find the adventures with Ren in Kowloon. the game gets more mainstream action and fun and less philosophical.

Thank you for posting these.
I have been watching it, but don't bother following on YouTube to see when they make new episodes.

Posted: Sat Dec 03, 2016 4:57 pmThey read my comment again and made the same joke about my youtube name sounding like the MI6 agent who makes everyone coffee lol (DoubleO88). I said to them that they shouldn't diss the leafs catching and book carrying because it's supposed to teach the player and Ryo patience and that it's fun in the context of the story and Kyle was like "oh must be fun because you say it is" lmao feisty Kyle, ima call him feisty Kyle from now on.

Posted: Tue Dec 13, 2016 10:10 pmWow.
In my 10+ times playing through the game I've never seen the conversation between Ryo and Joy in the arcade about Master Chen. I thought the only reference she made to "Uncle Chen" was during her call with Guizhang on the disc 3 tape.
Glad I watched this.
