it's just Shenmue that was just focused on immersion in a way nobody does today, because zoomers would go absolutely insane if you had to wait around and do side content for an hour in certain spots or having to actually investigate stuff in order to progress with no quest markers to guide them.
Man, Shenmue 2 is still one of the most kino game ever made, it's sad that the series' reputation took such a nosedive thanks to stupid memes from non-gamers and the awful 3rd game.
And maybe you just had to be there at the time. But the anime was released recently and it was good in it's own way.
