A beautiful game for people in need
The Shenmue series is super meaningful to me and my wife as it got us through some extremely dark times in our life. When your faced with the possibliltiy of losing a loved one the last thing you want to play is a survival horror game or FPS. We needed something peaceful in our lives to get our minds off of ourselves and our problems. Shemue was that perfect distraction. Others will hate this game, becasue it's Shenmue. But for me there is a kind of gentle humor to the way Yu Suzuki created these characters. I would gladly choose the Shemue games over other gentle games like Journey, Flower, or Abzu, because they just don't present the same little quirks that give Ryo and his associates such personality. People like Ben Yatzhee Croshaw (and other reviewers who bash this game) can't appreciate something like this, because they have entitlement issues as well as they've most likely never truely come face-to-face with mortality. I've been a gamer since I was a little boy, and eventhough there are better games out there (like the Yakuza series) they don't provide the same gentle and quirk personality of the Shenmue series. Everything today is so "in your face." It's all about seeking the latest thrill or the highest high. You will not get that from the Shenmue series. In fact, if that is what you are after then stay far away from Shenmue. But if you want to play a game that is gentle and you enjoy subtle and most likely unintentional humor. Then I do recommend the Shenmue games. P.S. Thankfully my wife is doing much better healthwise and we still are enjoying the Shenmue games P.S.S. "Do you know where I can find... any other... Chinese people?"-Ryo at the Chinese Restaraunt. :)
