Fixing a turd is still a turd.

The game is still hot garbage. Patch it up all you want.

Poor effort of a game.

Devs ought to be ashamed.

I'm a fan of the first two games, so when Shenmue's Kickstarter was announced at E3, I thought it was incredible that they would finally finish the story, and made a pledge right then.

However, some time later Yu Suzuki said it still wouldn't be the end of the story. And after that, the move to Epic Games exclusivity happened. Then I got my refund.

After the game was released, the reviews said that it barely moved the plot forward at all. And watching the gameplay videos, it was too similar to the old games, with all of their flaws still there. I wanted a conclusion to the story in a refined gameplay, but I got none of that.

Only so much time in life so hopefully it gets finished before it’s too late

I think that’s the problem. Just give us a conclusion like we were hoping for with 3 instead of basically pulling a Shenmue 2 on us and leaving it all in limbo again,

No trilogy collection? All the years Sega knocked out Shenmue clone Yakuza, yet took years to release Shenmue 3 on PS4 only. Was made waiting all those years after Shenmue 2 on Dreamcast.

Sega had nothing to do with shenmus 3.

And they think it's a positive thing?
Potential new fans won't be interested in future sequels because they would need to know the story of all the previous games.
Old fans who were burnt by 3 (like me) won't be interested in the next ones. Especially if they are fillers like 3 is.

The truth is, Yu Suzuki threw away his golden oportunity of finishing the saga in a dignified way. Old fans were thirsty for its conclusion and they got good money on Kickstarter.
Now that they made 3 with some of the worst game design decisions in any modern game, and made the plot be a useless filler, a Kickstarter for 4 would probably fail badly, and the shameful sales of 3 won't convince any publisher to put good money on a sequel.

Never say never, I really didn't expect to ever see Space Marine 2 and 12 years later its almost here.
So there is still hope for all these games.

I've completed 5 of the games on the list, but the author forgot to include Advent Rising. It was supposed to be a trilogy, but it bombed hard, and the two sequels never got made. It was Mass Effect, a console generation before Mass Effect.

The game is buggy and unpolished, it needed a few more months of development, but the potential was there. At the end of the game, you have all these super abilities, I remember the stomp attack that created a shockwave being especially powerful.

I personally think days gone will recieve some sort of sequel at some point. I'm personally also hoping it's not the rumored multiplayer online stuff. I'd think most that enjoyed it would rather thisnto.

Knightofelemia829d ago

Sony needs to dust off Sly Cooper and Days Gone so needs a sequel two of my favorite Sony titles. Bulletstorm I love great game wish it also got a sequel. And I wish Namco would finally give Enslaved a sequel another great game.
