Shenmue 3 - New scope information, mini-games, combat system & more

QUELLE:Neilo

To 'Shenmue 3', there are today a few small info bites that come from the G-Fusion Tour 2018 in Xiamen. So one has there, among other things, the scope, the secondary tasks and more expressed.

In terms of volume, animation producer Hiroaki Takeuchi said that Shenmue 3 will be the most comprehensive game in the series, about twice as large as its predecessors, which could be played in about a week. For Shenmue 3 you will probably need several weeks. But then Shenmue 3 should not be over. So you can get back into the game without starting completely from the beginning. Presumably, further stories or systems can be explored here, as previously indicated.

It also states that the secondary tasks are no longer so separate from the main story, but better harmonize with it. Even the minigames now have a bigger impact on the story than before, including already familiar minigames from the first two games. In general, the game would now consist of 50 percent new ideas, as well as 50 percent of what you already know.

Finally, one has also commented on the combat system, which is described as very "varied, rich and playable". The goal was to create a combat system that would welcome players of varying skill levels, and that the design and balance helped make the fight fun for all players. Here one put a lot of work into it, as well as the lifelike representation of the Chinese martial arts were important.
