Q: What's the reason for your focus on humidity?
YS: I'd have to say creating a reality. Just being realistic isn't interesting, so my approach is to embellish it a touch further.
Around the time of the first and second Shenmue games, everyone wanted graphics that were as realistic as possible. However now, we're in an era where achieving that is taken for granted.

4Gamer Interview with Yu Suzuki @Gamescom wrote:Q: Oh, that's how it was.
Now, could you tell us afresh the reason for choosing Deep Silver as publisher?
YS: After announcing Shenmue III, we immediately launched a Kickstarter campaign, and that turned out a success.
However, as far as creating an open-world game, even with that the budget wasn't sufficient. So I continued to look for a company we could partner with, and among the several names on my list was Deep Silver.

I hope they can nail the animations, the great thing about cartoons is that they can have a very wide range of emotions and still be emphatic, but they'll have to nail it.

But Shenhua is taking her father lunch at the end of Shenmue 2, not dinner, and they arrive at the cave in the morning. I certainly don't think the game implies that they spent 6 to 8 hours in that cave? Shouldn't they be home in time for dinner?
