Shenmue creator Yu Suzuki will be holding a post-mortem on the game at the 2014 Game Developers Conference, Gamasutra reports. Suzuki’s talk will be translated by Mark Cerny, lead system architect for the PlayStation 4.

 

Suzuki will begin the talk by discussing the origins of Shemue as an RPG based on the Virtua Fighter series, originally in development for the Sega Saturn. He will go on to reveal how the game ended up in its final form on the Sega Dreamcast in 1999.

 

The session will be an hour long in length. GDC 2014 will take place in San Francisco, California from March 17th –21st, 2014.

How exactly are Shenmue fans being trolled here? Is your favorite game still being discussed in panels - one headed by the lead architect of the playstation 4, even - in 2013?

No?

Didn't think so.

I tried playing Shenmue again a couple of years ago. Unplayable garbage, horrible controls.

How do you play it? Are you playing it like every other game? I can make a video to show how I control Ryo in Shenmue 1. I play one-handed. I find it very relaxing.

That shouldn't be the case. The secret to playing Shenmue is to run at all times. You use the d-pad to change directions. I will make a video later. You should never be fighting the controls in Shenmue; they are very simple, and very relaxing.

I just realized that my top three favorite games (Shenmue 1+2, Jet Set Radio, Resident Evil 4) are games people say have shit controls. :fbm

Shenmue won't even let me play as a girl. What a joke.

You ever play RE4 with Wiimote?  Surprisingly good.

I didn't think the original GC controls were that bad either.  Just have to turn and run when you're stuck.

RE4 with a wiimote is too good. It takes all of the challenge out of the game.

Aight, I did it.

http://youtu.be/zmvP_katqa0

Probably left on dead ears but I thought I should make it anyways.

Shenmue's fanbase love Shenmue because we mostly find it relaxing. If there controls were bad, it wouldn't be relaxing. So here in Shenmue II, I changed the controls to Shenmue 1 controls to show you. If you're controlling Ryo with the d-pad, outside of small interiors (the dojo, Ryo's house), then you're pretty much doing it wrong. You hold the trigger, and adjust your movement with the d-pad. So if you're going to turn left, you holdddddddd left and edge it. You should be able to play Shenmue one-handed, short of having to talk to people and mini-games/qtes/fights.

Shenmue's controls are totally fine for the game it is and when you compare it to its contemporaries (notably, Resident Evil games and Grim Fandango) the controls are way, way better.

Is that running on dc emulator?

How is it?

Sure is. NullDC is pretty much perfect if you get the right settings. Takes a bit of fiddling but after that, it's :rejoice

60fps? Or slowdown in same spots as original?

No slow down at all.

Nice but I just remembered DC used a different format so my collection of around 20 titles is useless

Every time I see this thread title, I think it says "Swery" instead of "Cerny" and I get disappointed when I realize that SWERY isn't making Shenmue III.
