I missed the video too! It looks amazing. Are we supposed to have already received our surveys? I haven't yet. Anyways, sounds like they're gearing up for some big announcements post August :D It's such an exciting time to be a Shenmue 3. It seems we will finally see gameplay and a new trailer (hope...

I think they should still be able to put in a few easter eggs and 'missable' extra cutscenes. Whether they will or not is another thing of course. It's hard to know how far funding and resources will stretch, but from the sounds of that particular interview (if I'm thinking of the same one), they re...

I'm just so excited to jump back into the world of Shenmue. There's really no other game like it. The rapport system sounds like it will build on what they started doing with Shenmue 2. I'm really looking forward to seeing what hidden events there are (e.g. Fangmei's Birthday Event or all the hidden...

I can still see the images.

Haha now that's what I wanted to know. This is so cool

Maybe I'm cynical about games journos, but part of me thinks some will shit on the game regardless. Doesn't matter what PR moves are pulled, or how good the game actually may be, it'll be a matter of ego, a morbid desire to slaughter a "sacred cow", and to say "I told you so". S...

That's great news!

Just got an email. Woo Awesome! What are the surveys like? (Silly question I know, but I'm interested haha) Surely if the surveys are being done soon, they must be locking down a potential release date? Mind you, Bloodstained did their surveys ages ago and it still doesn't have a release date, but ...

Unfortunately this will be unavoidable. Law of averages dictates somewhere in those 70,000+ backers there will be an issue with fulfilment, be it a stocking problem, wrong address, lost in the post, didn't fill in the survey, wrong items sent, etc. Even with absolute competency from whoever adminis...

I still don't get why it's so controversial in the gaming world to show off unfinished, early or rough footage. I really appreciated the Gamescom teaser and took it for what it is. If I was a pizza maker and someone wanted to see me make pizzas, I would demonstrate the dfferent stages, e.g. rolling ...

This was buried in the Random Thoughts thread when it does carry some significance. Its been split into its own designated topic. Thanks. I was split on whether to post it in its own designated thread or not, since they didn't confirm anything. I'm not expecting anything at E3 (seems Gamescom is mo...

To be fair, it was Q4 2017, not 2016. But yeah, it was a bit optimistic.

I think the relative silence over the last 6 months might have more to do with the delay though as a result of them being behind schedule. I don't really think it's correct to regard them as "behind schedule" when in fact the additional development time is due to significantly expanding t...

I actually have no qualms with the gamescom trailer... It should have been labelled a development progress update or something and been shown with some kind of context provided (e.g. details on how early they are in development etc.). You're right though, what we really need to see is gameplay. Not ...

Yup, we should probably wait until Gamescom. And then when nothing is shown at Gamescom, we should probably wait until the event after that. And then when there is nothing shown at that event, we should probably wait until Magic Monaco. Oh, but no, that's not the right stage for Shenmue 3, because r...
