I was thinking about what story remains for the series to properly come to a close and I'm sure it's different for everyone. So what story threads have been established that you consider essential for the series to wrap up? These can be characters, plot points, locations, inventory items etc.
These are what I consider to be essential for Shenmue to wrap up:
- Go to the Cliff Temple (naturally, since this is where Ryo left off; no idea what we'll find there)
- Go to Meng Cun and figure out what happened between Iwao and Sunming
- Find out what the mirrors actually do and what the treasure is
- Settle the score between Niao Sun and Lan Di and bring down the CYM (not sure if the four leaders are going to be a thing)
- Go to Luoyang and find out about Shenhua's past
- Encounter Ziming (probably the least important thing on this list but I would be shocked if it doesn't come up)
- Learn the importance of the Shenmue tree/what its significance is in the broader story line
- Ryo either takes his revenge on Lan Di or not but that conflict obviously needs to resolve
*BONUS* This doesn't need to happen but I want to see Ren ride a horse.
Obviously I don't know everything Suzuki has planned and what surprises were in store but this is everything that I, from playing S1-3, would expect to see resolved.
