Yes. Especially compared to both how universally beloved S2 is with the fanbase and the massive success of the Kickstarter. IMO S3 leans into several of the series' worst indulgences and gives the 'haters' more than enough to point and laugh at with design decisions that are truly baffling to me given the series' reputation. When I think about the E3 2015 reactions with people openly weeping at the thought of getting to play it, I just can't square that with what we actually got to play.
Even though it's the reason we're getting a Shenmue Anime and even talking about a future for the series, I'm firmly of the mind that S3 was the best chance to change people's minds on the series and it blew it.
That being said, if we get S4 and it's amazing (and/or the anime is amazing), then I change my answer to no.
