I recognise that avatar off that music album with the amazing track from Raito.
This one:
Great tune (love the 90s piano-synth influence in it). Anyway, welcome to the Dojo.

I'm NeoGC. I picked up Shenmue on my DCabout a year or so back and didn't really care for it, to be completely honest. Having zero nostalgia for the series, I saw it as dated, badly acted, and poorly paced.
And then, the Shenmue III Kickstarter was announced, and something possessed me to go back and actually play past the first 3rd of Disc 1.
And you know what?
I fell in love.
The world of Shenmue and the scale of the game for being made in 1999 sucked me in, and even the characters with some pretty bad dubbing became endearing to me in a weird way. I enjoyed buying capsule toys, playing Hang-On or the QTE game at the Arcade, practing my Kung fu (Nearing the 70 man brawl in my playthrough!) and enjoying the game. I've sunk quite a considerable amount of hours in, and with somebody with no exposure to Shenmue around the time it was released, I'm having tons of fun.
Oh, and the soundtrack is really great, though the orchestra selections in particular just blow me away.
Glad to have an account now on the biggest Shenmue fansite on the planet, and I have Shenmue II and an Xbox, ready to be played as soon as I finish Game 1!

You're not Clockwork that MvC2 player, are you?

I've only been here for a few minutes and just noticed a few users with NieR and Killer7 avatars/signatures. Sounds like I'll feel right at home

I'm really bad at these kinds of things and I'm massively hung over from my Shenmue 3 celebration party so I'll keep it very short.
I'm Demonoroth, wherever you see that name pop up on the net it's always gonna be me. I absolutely love Shenmue (especially it's soundtrack). Other games I like are MGS and Yakuza series, good RPGS and the weird stuff like Team Ico stuff, Killer 7 and a good hack'n'slash like Bayonetta from time to time. Well you get the idea
For the rest...I just love music. Metal and rock really...but just love good music in general as an example listening to the Daytona USA OST right now :-D

Yes, yes, more Nier fans, very good. Excited for Nier 2 as well, I'd imagine? And a Suda obsessed fan? I highly, highly recommend playing Flower, Sun & Rain. It is my favourite Suda game, even more than killer7, which I already consider a masterpiece. Did you hear that Suda might actually be releasing The Silver Case (Grasshopper Manufacture's first game) soon for the Western audience? I hope he keeps that promise.
