anyone have a feeling that mysterious scroll you find in the dojo may have a later use in shenmue 3?

[Heart <3]

i mean they did convert the toy system and move system over to the sequal from what you had on the previous title is it possible sega may reveal the use of the scroll in the 3rd game?

I'm going to take the approach of "assuming," you did not play the second. However; if you have, maybe you should consider spoiler tags for something like this? Sure, it may be rather miniscule, but if this is the case, I now have 0 purpose to try and scavenge around for the meaning of the scroll.......

o.O i played the 2nd years ago along with the first? what do you mean i never played the second

Well, I hoped my assumption was correct, guess not. So, maybe consider spoiler tags next time for those of us who quite possibly, HAVEN'T beaten both, yeah? ;)

SPOILER(kind of?)


Chen, the gent who runs the antique shop that sells the other scrolls can actually translate that. I think he runs it. I remember calling him on the phone about it. It’s one of those hard to do/tag to L moves that’s absolutely brutal.

When on disc 3, ring up Master Chen and then go see him at the harbour. There's 2 mysterious scrolls in Shenmue and he can translate them both.

2? i only knew of one mysterious scroll in the dojo when i played though the entire series when i was a child...where would i find this 2nd one?

There's the one behind the Yin and Yang sign in the Hazuki dojo and another in the basement after you retrieve the sword guard.

so the moves contained in those scrolls do they make any fights easier in shenmue 2? i know near the end of the game the difficulty spiked really high

I always felt the first was harder than the second because the fighting feels so much better in the second it's more like playing Virtua Fighter (which both are based off).

Stab armour is pretty powerful move, but the dodge move Master Chen teaches you at the end of the first game is not a move to forget quickly.

[Heart <3]

oh you ment the stab armor..yea i looked everywhere in the basement but couldent remember exactly where it was

The scroll you find behind the ying and yang is still a plot left open, Guizhang translate it and turns out its in poetry and the scroll is to teach a martial arts a new move, turns out its written in code and you need to find the master to translate it... maybe that master will be in Shenmue 3. Heres hoping

I’ve played the first countless times and not once stumbled onto this SECOND scroll. Gotta love a game still giving surprises twenty years on.
