Shenmue Dojo

One neat thing about Shenmue 2 is how it felt real because you had to actually work to earn your money. It gave a lot of immersion. What kind of jobs do you think Shenmue 3 will have?

It feels weird even asking this.

Fishing
Building

Sailor.

Goat-herder.

I think you may farm in this one.

World Series of Darts.

With the new village location, I'd say he's likely to do a lot of manual labor, like the Amish bastard that he is.

I got the impression that from the KickStarter video that there is going to be an even stronger emphasis on the gambling mini games. So hopefully they won't make the only to gain money come from gambling/running stands.

and most of the jobs listed above sound like they would fit in with little to no problem.

Well he's in communist china where earning money is for capitalist pigs so starve to death?

Whatever it is, as long as it's not a stupid box moving game!

Driving forklifts and moving product was like real-life, legitimate work, even the book carrying wasn't tooooooo video gamey. But the box moving was goofy as all get out. Who the heck expects you to carry crates while they shout, in rapid succession, "LEFTLEFTRIGHTLEFTRIGHT!" How about we just carry them like normal people, eh Delin?

I think the idea of manual labor sounds right. Fishing? Sheep herding? Maybe another book-carrying like thing, taking care of village artifacts and stuff?

For those wanting forklifts to return I don't think remote Chinese villages in the 80s were industrially advanced enough nor had the money to have any.

To this day me and my brother can not move furniture without saying "Left Left Left" followed by "We're putting it down now!" No one ever knows what we are talking about, but it's something we will always do when we have to move something or help a friend move. For me it's one of the greatest Memories I have of Shenmue 2

But I honestly wouldn't mind if they left it out, or changed it significantly for Shenmue 3 since it really was super redundant and monotonous. And even after all that work I never really liked the move "Rising Uppercut" that Hong De Lin your crate lifting partner would teach you before going off to face Ren.
