Absolutely.Shenmue 3 shenhua is the best shenhua
Yeah, if shenmue 4 can have that consistency with all the character models and get rid of those exaggerated playdough looking npcs, along with implementing modern animations/ facial animations, and a good directed dub, it would look absolutely stunning.
I think the outsourcing of NPC models hurt S3. They were obviously given to different companies and that's why they all look rather... odd in some places and fine in others.
The problem came from the direction, not the outsourcing.
Lakshya Digital, the studio which was used for outsourcing has done a lot of work for AAA games. They didn't suffer from the same issue.
Among the games they're credited for:
Bloodborne, Metal Gear Solid V, Nier Automata, Shadow of War: Middle Earth, Just Cause 3, Gears 5, Borderlands 3.
Those games doesn't have that issue you see with Shenmue 3.
