I'm concerned that they're using the Xbox model of Ryo. Whilst that model does have an updated and better textured jacket it's worse than the Dreamcast one because his jacket has bigger cuffs from the wrist and looks too big on Ryo. My other concern is that they are using Xbox textures for everything else aswell when I'd rather prefer Dreamcast textures.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the look of the Xbox version either. I'd rather they used the Dreamcast version as the source material and then add some of the effects and touches from the Xbox version, as well as any others they feel necessary. I just hope that awful motion blur effect isn't included and bloom is removed from the scenes where it just doesn't look great, but I'm not hopeful.

DC version without the framedips and aliasing would be perfect imo.

Using the Xbox version as a basis for S2 really is a concern. It's by no means a bad port but I really hate how they have a lot of little mistakes in the Xbox version. Like clipping mistakes or the vending machines in Hong Kong displaying Yen prices and so on.

Also, the Xbox version has a big blunder, which is super annoying to me. THey used the wrong music for the Guilin opening scene.

While I agree, the Xbox version looks stunning emulated at 4k.

It already looks better than the HD port imho.

Has it been confirmed that they're using the Xbox version of Shenmue 2?

Not sure if they were all "mistakes". It seems that the Xbox team had to work on the port while AM2 was yet to complete the full development on Dreamcast, including texture tweaks and implementation.

First I've heard of this. Anything else to back it up?

I have no idea if that's true, but that could explain why the Xbox version actually has worse textures in many areas.

I doubt they are gonna redub Yuan's lines in english, who knows if they are gonna use the Japanese Yuan voice or the Female Japanese EU voice. They will also have to bring in actors in English to do that tape recording scene that is missing in English and i doubt SEGA is gonna put in the budget for all of that. Those are my biggest concerns.


god, if word got out about yuan character, the typical protestors would call for shenmue HD to be banned.
