Meeting the Bare Minimum
Having played Shenmue 3 on Steam a few times after replaying Shenmue 1 and 2, I'm going to say that Shenmue 3 is passable. My opinion does not include the wait that every Shenmue player had to go through in-between Shenmue 2 and 3 along with the 'messes'. It meets the bare minimum. It also feels like a sequel that was developed and released in the late 2000s rather than 2019, so there's some charm in that. - Shenmue 3 controls like a modern Shenmue 2 - if not worse. - Shenmue 3 has a ridiculous amount of padding when compared to Shenmue 1 and 2. - Shenmue 3's story progression of the entire series is almost nothing (and is at the end of the game), and it focuses on reintroducing Shenmue players back into the Shenmue world instead. - Shenmue 3 has a few nice mini-games, but - otherwise - they do get dry; you'll need to play them a lot to earn money and to eventually gamble based on a fortune teller's word to progress the game efficiently. - Graphically, Shenmue 3 is like most janky Japanese 3D video games in the early 2010s and is very faithful to the Shenmue style. - Shenmue 3's voice acting is somewhat better than Shenmue 1 and 2, but its dialogue has more filler than both of those games combined. - Shenmue 3's music is, hands-down, the best part of it. - Shenmue 3's QTEs are as expected, like Shenmue 1 and 2 but a little more polished. - Shenmue 3's character background explorations can be very much appreciated, especially if you had played Shenmue 2. - Shenmue 3's combat is a lot worse than both Shenmue 1 and 2; it's janky, unresponsive at times, lacks polish, has somehow worse animations, and provides no real feedback for hits. - Shenmue 3's environments stand out a lot too; I love the town near the final act. Shenmue 3 is faithful to a fault; it's so Shenmue that it highlights the best and worst aspects of both Shenmue 1 and 2 to an extreme. I like parts of Shenmue 3, but I do not recommend it at all, especially when the series' story is nowhere near done.
