Re: Is this twitter account an eccentric troll?

It's a poorly programmed bot. Its designer picked up on Shenmue as a hot keyword and it just trawls for others to compose random tweets that might get it noticed and followed, presumably by people with a terrible grasp of English.

Re: Random Shenmue III Thoughts

Is it? I guess if there's already a discussion thread on the go by the time the news is posted then that would make sense, and there'd be a link within the news post to that thread. But I can't see that being the case if it's the first and only thread on the subject.

Anyway, I was mainly pointing to it for anyone who hadn't read the interview and would therefore want to know the context behind darksniper's comment.

Re: New Shenmue Dojo

Thank you for what you've done for the site Yama, both in the last few years and today. From what I gather you came along at the time time for the Dojo, and you've continued to make good choices during this handover. The community here owes you a lot.

Congratulations Peter, the future is bright for the Internet's longest running Shenmue fan site and I'm sure you'll have everyone's support in doing what needs to be done. :)

It's funny that people are always comparing the Yakuza series to Shenmue, and now the voice actor for Shenhua is named Haruka.

Suzuki confirmed that Ren's style of combat will differ from Ryo's, and that Shenhua doesn't fight. "She's smart and uses other tactics ," he noted

Shenhua dance battles confirmed.

Re: Random Shenmue HD Thoughts

I keep thinking about what Yu Suzuki said in a past interview, that he was hoping for some kind of synergy with SEGA.
(If someone finds this interview, it would be great)

http://www.phantomriverstone.com/2017/08/game-watch-interview-with-yu-suzuki.html

Q: At the moment, there are a lot of revivals of previous or classic games. Do you have any plans for a revival of Shenmue I and II? I think there would be a lot of people who would try them if they were available on PS4.

YS: The Shenmue IP belongs to SEGA, so I'm not in a position to give a direct answer. Personally, I also think it would be good if something could be done in connection with Shenmue III. It would probably also have a synergistic effect.

Re: Kickstarter Update #83 - Survey Info #0

I hope the people who did the highest pledges get their surveys first. I can't wait for mine but I am a bit worried that I won't be living at the same address by the time the game comes out. Does anyone know if you can change it if that happens?

From what's been said by early recipients, you can edit your address on Fangamer's site at any time, even after submitting the survey.

And anecdotally, those who've received theirs do all appear to be high level donors, though I don't know if it's been everyone above a certain tier or still just a sampling of those. It also may just be a coincidence that these are the recipients I happen to be aware of.

Re: Kickstarter Update #84 - Survey Info #1: Survey Started!

The kid is perfect for delivering this kind of thing, because she doesn't have a serious in-game personality to maintain. If they got Shenhua to do this video then she'd either be creating a disconnect by acting out of character, or a fun little clip would become less playful.

Re: Kickstarter Update #84 - Survey Info #1: Survey Started!

So in addition to backing the campaign for a PS4 copy, I also did the slacker backer option to get another copy on PC. However, I only got one survey. Did anyone else do something similar and get only one survey? I'm trying to figure out if there is any confusion and me not getting the second copy. I tried emailing them also, but no response yet...

You can either wait for the second one to arrive, or you can whack your email address onto this page to get it sent right away.

Re: Kickstarter Update #83 - Survey Info #0

One thing I found odd is that you get three choices to put in for your name for both the credits and the website. Not sure why you would need three options beyond someone having a similar name than you.

If your first choice of name is Dickface McTwatterson, it potentially saves them having to come back to you for a second option if they've already asked you for three.

Also... I did not get a survey or any notification\e-mail for my Paypal Slacker Backer pledge of $13 for the soundtrack (outside of the receipt at the time of the pledge).

Nobody got a confirmation email for their Slacker Backer donation besides the PayPal receipt. Surveys are still being sent out, so you can keep waiting patiently or use the resend page to request that one immediately.

Re: Yakuza series

There are one or two things in Yakuza 0 that might draw a double take from Shenmue fans.

I'm currently playing Yakuza 6. I've been playing the series since its debut on PS2, and it's a thrill to be able to explore parts of Kamurocho in more depth (5 had taken a step back from 4 in that respect). I find myself disappointed by the combat system now though. Whereas in past games I'd have used at least a couple Heat moves per battle, now the need to "activate" Heat mode with a lengthy animation that leaves Kazuma vulnerable means I'm rarely using them at all. As a result, the fights are pretty boring.

Re: Shenmue I & II HD : FAQs Answered by Sega & d3t

Something I never see praised enough about Shenmue 2 on Xbox is the snapshot mode. It was diverting enough just to be able to take and save photos within the game, but what really sets it apart even from modern games with similar modes is that it detected which characters were in the frame and attached their biographical data to the photo. And not content with the novelty factor of this, the function was put to practical use for unlocking bonus content when lists of specific characters were photographed throughout the game, lending a whole new side challenge to engage the player. Some characters, after all, could only be seen once.

So I'm very glad to see this included in the new version. I think a number of new converts are going to start asking why elements of this feature are still new and surprising to them nearly two decades later.

The game has had a dedicated Japanese web page on Sega's official site from day one.

It's taken longer for the local release date to be announced, but China and Korea were just recently confirmed for August 22nd.

As mentioned, it's a PS4 exclusive in Japan.
