A Masterpiece from a forgotten era, a sequel that not only built upon what made the first games narrative, world & characters so compelling, but small quality of life improvements in the games structure & gameplay make it a superior sequel with lofty grand ambitions and goals for this Dreamcast/Xbox gem. The infamous ending for this game that is often joked about now is what makes Shenmue's short lived time as a series so incredibly impactful, influential, beautiful & tragic.
