On top of that, there are the costs of Unreal Engine that probably have been included here as well. According to my calculations, Epic Games will collect about $240,126 (3.8%) from the campaign total revenue. This assumes that tiers like 'Be a NPC' do count as ingame bonus sell according to Epic Ga...

I was bored today and did some research on how much of the money from the KS really go into the developement. The KS campaign showed this: https://ksr-ugc.imgix.net/assets/004/052/755/9efe610414da85d9f356a5de5addcd12_original.png?v=1435364118&w=680&fit=max&auto=format&lossless=true&a...

Thanks for the info. This should be a sticky and posted on twitter as well.

I made a tool to predict the outcome of the Shenmue 3 KS, based on the data from other game KS compaigns. I made this for personal use, but I thought some might be interested in it, so I will share. This is based on the average daily USD pledge increase of the final days from the 50 most successfull...

For those who haven't noticed,

they updated the 1400$ tier to include the 1200$ instead of the 500$ tier.

It's finaly worth upgrading :-)

I wish they would advertise these updates better. And with" better" I mean "at all".

Mac's are more common in the USA than anywhere else in the world. Esspecialy for gaming. And I don't think that even in the USA, Mac's are used for gaming much. Huh? That doesn't make any sense, do you mean PC's are more common, especially for gaming? Yes, that's what I mean. Mac's are not that com...

Mac's are more common in the USA than anywhere else in the world. Esspecialy for gaming. And I don't think that even in the USA, Mac's are used for gaming much. It's not worth wasting budget on that. It's probabaly less than 1% of people who would play Shenmue on a Mac but not on PS4/PC. In other wo...

They seem to be losing the plot it seems and are fixated on the success of the $1500 tier... ..This isn't helpful for the KS.. Well I upped again from $800 to $1200 so something's working :P If the $1500 included the $1200 then I'd probably stretch to that, too, tweeted Cedric and @Shenmue_3 about ...

Dank Bruder, du bist ein guter Mensch. Sie können diese passieren! Sorry if mein Deutsch ist nich so gut. German is just a hobby for me. \:D/ The first sentence is alright, only thing is it should be "Danke". I don't really get the second one though. :lol: The second sentence should proba...

SEGA is not a charity and will most likely not give the rights to Yu Suzuki for free. In a recent interview, Yu Suzuki was asked directly if SEGA will get any money for the licence. Yu said that he can't comment on that. It's pretty obvious that SEGA does get a cut, otherwise there would not be a re...

I registered as well. Still shows one subscriber. I guess the numbers are bugged

But anyway, how can you be sure it's the official channel? The channel Information seem to be hidden.

You never run out of ideas. Time and Money are the only limits.

The reason Shenmue came to XBox rather than Playstation 2 is most likely to the fact that the XBox was closer to the Dreamcast and Sega was already partnered to Microsoft for developing the DC. Microsoft was heavily involved in developing the Dreamcast, because they wanted a console to support Windo...

The Kickstarter campaign used the TM symbol on all Shenmue logos right from the start, so I thought it was pretty obvious it was trademarked.
It would be more of a suprise if it wasn't :-P

The trademark was filed back in february. That must be the time Yu-san finialised the deal with Sega.

Wow! That was an incredible movie!
It exceeded all my expectations.

There was only one thing missing: what happend with Xiuyings brother?
Well, maybe i missed that while watching.
I will watch it again later, anyway
