Having finally played Shenmue 2 with English dub on the PS4 collection, it's infinitely better not having to read the story and just enjoying the scenes. I'd be angry if they removed English from any sequels.
Yes 100%, and even Yu himself stated this. i'll look for the video where he says it, may take some time though. But basically he says subtitles=less immersion, as you no longer solely give your attention to the scene but instead have to divert your eyes to read the subs, even f for a second it still affects immersion. Also If you even daydream off for a second you can miss vital info too. Least if you can still understand the audio you are more likely to remember what they said when you werent paying full attention. Ive seen some streamers make that same mistake.
