Yes it is.
And then, next one could be Phantasy Star Online, Virtua Fighter, Soul Calibur, Sonic Adventure, Streets of Rage...

Better atmosphere, better story, better VA (ironic considering its only got progressively worse as its creator ventured on more cinematic endevors with the media), better characters...would say better music but I think Shenmue's soundtrack is right on par. The edge Shenmue has is its variety in things to do and has more hidden little places. The hidden places in Omikron are neat but not particularly awe inducing aside from the fight tournament and Bowie concerts.

Although Shenmue isn't an RPG I see almost every RPG I play & love to be an experience.
I love Shenmue for it's music detail and atmoshere. Story wise it's very very weak.
Maybe its a compatibility issue cause we're talking it running on a 1998 Compaq vs a 2008 Macbook Pro.
Same could be said for Omikron but as cinematic experiences, I found it more worthwhile.

For me playing a regular jrpg wrpg, isn't a experience in the way that I feel like i'm always doing the same (in jrpgs: turn battles - cinematic - roam town - cinematic - battle, and in wrpgs: talk to people recieve secondary quests - choose the main story or choose secondary).
Making a contemporary game isn't easy. I think that shenmue writing in some places is pretty bad, but why do you call it very very weak ??
XB my god I put 260 hours in just for side quests.
Ys the oldest JRPGs around are action based.
