Shenmue III plays like it came out in 2001. You knew what you were getting into.

That would be because the last game the director made was in 2001. iirc in an interview he pretty much admits that he doesn't make games and just kind of stumbled into the franchise. He's not even really in industry so it's not like he's been tracking trends in development since the Dreamcast era.

He confirmed as much back in 2018. he doesn't think he'll be able to finish the story in less than four or five games total.

I'm glad they didn't wrap it up. I'm hoping the shenmue assets get released and the fans finish it
