Wow, there people saying that the MIghty Number 9 kickstarter was actually a scam... I dont think anyone can deny its a very ugly situation but the final product differing so much from what was originally shown is insane. Then of course the delays the horrible reviews of the game once it finally came out, some are saying its the most disappointing game of all time. Just what in the hell happened to this cluster fuck of a game over the last few years?

I hope Shenmue 3 doesnt turn out similarly considering its the same throw back/passion project, of course the situation is different and #inyuwetrust and all that but I think it would be foolish to rule out the possibility.

Free-roaming through Afghanistan and Africa for materials and high-ranked soldiers is something I find very enjoyable.

I enjoyed that at first but after hours of doing it an pretty much visiting all the locations twice over it got boring too. Maybe I just lack patience :dunno:

Finished Zero Time Dilemma. I have to admit, I'm...disappointed. I could see some issues at the start of the game, and kept hoping they'd be resolved, but they weren't.

I can think of games more disappointing than MM9.

It's decent. I wouldn't rave about it, there's hardly any cutscenes (thank god, those SO4 cutscenes looked atrocious) but for an introduction to the series I am enjoying it. Combat is fun, characters are okay and generic as hell, so is the storyline but the actual world traversal, combat and music (Motoi Sakuraba on fine form, THOSE SYNTHS! Honestly sounds like something from the PSX era, he's gone all in old school with this) make up for the shortcomings. If you fancy playing a PS2 era style Action RPG, you can do a lot worse.

Just found a Shenmue reference in Yakuza 4. "Gals on Wild in Yokosuka - Ryoko Hazuki - 18 - Saggitarius" :lol:

Looks like Ryo has quite the little sister, or perhaps even daughter??? I guess not even Ryo and Ine-san could keep her under control... :no:

Well the ages dont match up considering Yakuza 4 takes place in 2010, but its still a goofy little reference to Shenmue they threw in, but more often than not thats just how the Yakuza games work, or just weird shit and weird people in Tokyo, or that "only in japan" type of thing, im not sure which or a combination of them. xD

I keep telling you people that Ryo's a time traveler. Proof: He has a Sega Saturn, In 1986.

Hell I'd want to visit the future to get work done too. :-o

And here we go with Sonikku's conspiracy theories of Ryo being a sex changed time traveler...

I've been to most of the most famous art museums in the world, and I think I enjoy just downloading shit from itch.io and gamejolt than most of them.

Specially contemporary art, so much bullshit.

Ryo's not just any time traveller, he's a timelord. Watch the Kickstarter announcement video and tell me he didn't undergo a regeneration or two during those years in the cave.
