I see...
I can't play Shenmue 2 in English, the voice acting is even worse than the first game which shouldn't be possible...
Is it wrong that this makes me want to use the English VA more?
They were playing it wrong lmfao. They kept running around in circles making the game alot slower than it had to be because they had no sense of direction and couldn't get used to the controls. It was actually really, really painful to watch....
"2018 release" lol (or is the date just a placeholder?)
No problem at all, part of the reason I prefer Shemue 1 to 2 was the leisurely pace. Need to wait for an event? Go play some arcade games or something, plenty to do.
That's not a bug, just don't drive the wrong way and instead drive the right way and you'll progress in the game just fine...
You too?Pre-orders up on Best Buy! Got a great deal!
Hell yes. I'll get the PC version too for those sweet sweet mods...
Looking forward to hires textures made by determined fans.
This might even be the game that gets ME into modding...
It is a bug as it doesn't trigger a cutscene to progress the game, when I first played the game back in 1999 no one had figured out how to progress so was game ending. Looks like since people have worked out how to trigger the cutscene.
You absolutely do trigger a cutscene to progress the game if you do your work properly the way it's explained on the map. If you do it wrong, you won't trigger a cutscene and you won't progress. That's not a bug lmfao...
Placeholder date probably.
It is a bug, actually. Sega themselves said so back in the day (I bought it on release and ran into the same problem).
I don't see how that could possibly be considered a bug. I'd love to hear Sega's response to it. Do you have the quote, or any sort of source for this claim? A google search doesn't provide anything about this...
It was said on the dreamarena forum I think. But it is definitely a bug.
If you get a source please let me know, until then I'll maintain it's not a bug lol
.....
I don't think it's a bug. As BANGS said, you have to follow the route in a specific manner for it to trigger a fight scene in the warehouse, else you'll never progress. That said, it is a common issue, so it should be patched to be more lenient.
Is it really that common? I'd never heard of it until recently. Honestly, the window to trigger the events is pretty lenient as it is. I can't imagine this being such a widespread problem(people doing the opposite of what the game is clearly telling you what to do and then wondering why they aren't progressing), but who knows...
That's not the case either lol. You just have to trigger certain events during and after work each day, most of which are extremely easy to find if you're doing your job right/running around the place after work. The amount of money you make or spend has nothing to do with it...
If I remember correctly (and this is going back a few years) even if you follow the correct route after going wrong the cutscene will still not trigger. I remember wasting days and days trying to do the same thing before reading somewhere that it was a bug and I had to start over.
You only have to go the correct way during the event trigger window(usually about an hour in-game time, 4 minutes real time). You can dick around all day but as long as you approach from the right area at the right time with the right cargo (or lack thereof), you will trigger the event and be fine. It's explained pretty well in the versusbooks strategy guide... I'll see if I can grab some scans that explain it when I get a chance...
Yeah, it's pretty common. I often watch people stream Shenmue on Twitch, and can think of about 5 different occurances where I saw it happen and where I had to guide the streamer out of it. I wouldn't say it's a bug, though; the scripting of this part is just very strict, and there's a couple of other prequisites involved, too.
Interesting and strange... I wonder how that works...
