It could be an interesting dynamic if we find out later in the story that Lan Di has a son, biological or adopted, that you learn about, maybe even befriend. It would bring perspective to Ryo when it comes time to decide if it's right to kill him. There also seems to be stuff going on with Ryo inter...

Continuing Disc 3 of Shenmue, starting from the second official day of Ryo's forklift job.

Initiating my next stream right now. Next up, I'm going to take on the famous (or infamous) fight at the You Arcade, closing out disc 2. I will also be playing some of disc 3 as well. http://www.twitch.tv/slyspy It seems I've managed to improve the framerate of the stream through testing, so I'd als...

I to be somewhat of a completionist when I play most games, and Shenmue is best played at a deliberate pace, so I definitely wouldn't rush it. I'd most definitely have to stay away from forums like this when it comes out though. I don't want to be spoiled, and I want to go through this as if I am th...

I don't have a problem with some fan input here and there, as long as it's nothing too major or compromising to the story. I don't want Gui Zhang to somehow randomly show up when he isn't supposed to, or for Ren to turn out to be Ryo's long lost half-brother in some small-world-after-all nonsense be...

Yeah, I've been experimenting with different set ups. I'm not working with the best hardware, although once upon a time I did manage to stream that game more fluidly.

Doing my second stream for tonight. I've gotten to the beginning of disc 2, and am going to be looking for Warehouse #8.

Thanks to everyone who attended the stream last night. When we last left off, I was tracking down Charlie. I got a tip about the location of a tattoo parlor, so next I'm going to be following up on that lead. http://www.twitch.tv/slyspy Not sure how long this particular stream will be, but if it's s...

I'm down with some form of stamina system tied to eating as well. Of all of the simulative qualities of the first two games, it is interesting that you never really had any need to eat. They don't have to make him emaciated or anything, but having him generally weaker in battles, and with less stami...

I understand their reasoning for not showing all of the stretch goals. It's possible if someone saw them all at once, it would be discouraging, but at the same time, many already know he wants to hit the 10 million mark, so it may be a good idea to include all the stretch goals now. Whether they do ...

This is not necessarily related to Shenmue 3 itself, but more the campaign and everything surrounding it. Understandably, many people are excited and passionate for the game, and of course, many people have their worries or their criticisms about the marketing in regards to the Kickstarter campaign,...

Maybe he is talking about research assets?. An example of my hypothesis: The textures for Ryo's jacket in S3 were created from scratch, but they probably used the old texture as a reference in order to keep that same feel. Hence, it's creating from scratch while still using the assets in some capac...

[–]wonkah666 When creating Shenmue 3, will you use any assets at all from 1 & 2? Or do you have to start all over from scratch because SEGA still owns the first two games? [–]Yu_Suzuki[S] The assets from 1 & 2 will get a lot of use. There might have been a misunderstanding in translation. L...

Applicable to Ryo and Shenhua's designs it seems.
