LOL!

that's cool. I don't think any mod like that has been done before That's good to hear! is creating a running jump possible? it would be cool to have a little assualt course of boxes to jump over and climb up on. we know the game has a climb up and jump down animation from that point in the game whe...

I have sometimes wondered what it would be like if Ryo had the ability to jump under player control. I hadn't seen this being done before - or more likely it has been but I've missed it! Anyway, inspired by the great modders we have here at the Dojo I gave it a crack for What's Shenmue. The result i...

I'm very glad that people find these kind of article/video translations of value!

Yu has so much worthwhile to share, it would be a shame for any section of the Shenmue community to miss out on any of it.

(It seems the length of YS' interviews is based on how much he is inspired by the questions and/or respect the interviewer.) Yes, good observation! It was surprising to learn that his relationship with the interviewer goes way back and that he had even at one time offered the interviewer a place as...

Welcome to PART 2 of the translation of the Japanese magazine interview with Yu Suzuki that was published in the May 9 (2016) edition of the Bessatsu Shonen magazine. Go here for PART 1 of the article. In this lengthier part, Yu Suzuki reflects on last year's Kickstarter launch at E3, and talks abou...

https://goo.gl/maps/FJ1aEbJj44k This is the building according to Google Maps. Looks suitably humble. I'm pretty sure it's the right building, the narrow rectangle structure of the building seems to mimic what we've seen in pictures of the YSnet offices, but I could be wrong. It's just behind that ...

I think you may be right, looking at how it's grouped together under the same topic on the board.

Perhaps it's a card game like Magic the Gathering? ??? http://l5r.wikia.com/wiki/Yogo_Fujitani Sounds legit. :) ...or just an abbreviation of "meeting". The part about "placing an order for their modeling" could be interesting too. Like the creation of the models is being ordere...

Here's what I can make out. The content is non-spoilerish. http://i.imgur.com/SkRcFgjl.png Great work as always! Here's my rather wild guess for the "???" part: Characterization: hairstyle, attire, tastes... Edit: Ooops, I've just found out that you've already guessed similarly before thi...

Adding the version of the Bailu concept art displayed on the monitor in Cedric's tweet / FB post (straightened & adjusted for color/contrast).

I wish we could get a clearer look at the image on the screen. I'm almost 100% certain it's meant to be just above Bailu Village (I think I can see the bell tower), but there's something on the horizon, and a building of some kind on the right. Here's a composite of the screen image, with slight ad...

Could be : キャラクターバリエーション？？？？の?そう Characters variations ???? But without a better picture it's hard to read. I think you've got it! Yeah, with the blurriness it feels like trying to interpret one of those inkblot tests. Hey Switch do you think the second slightly blurred kanji could be 我そう (monk), i...
