I’m sorry if you’re a fan, but there is no way that Shenmue was more influential than fucking Doom, or many of the other games on the list.

It’s a cool game with lots of innovations, but the most influential game of all time?? Absolutely not.

Yeah 100%

This was a public poll after all so it smells a bit like fandom bandwagoning
