The only reason you should be pledging, and getting a reward in return. You all are now expecting rewards based on the monetary value that it seems to represent. But it doesn't represent thay at all, it's a figure thay someone is comfortable to donate to make Shenmue 3. At best it's a slight incentive, but at the end of it all, your pledge should be for the purposes of Shenmue. Not what item you want to buy.


Yeah, that's not how it really works and you know it.

No one is expecting to get full "pound per pound" tiers, but it's good for the people that get rewarded with cool things they actually want.


And I know it??? No, I know that the money I have donated is for Shenmue first and foremost. Anything I get for that is an added bonus, or a reward. So don't tell me what I know and what I don't know.
Some of you have been posting for days with nothing but complaints and whining about how awful AJ are and the rewards being inadequate. How about being happy thay Shenmue 3 is being funded, a game that we have been waiting for for a decade and a half?? Or being optimistic that Yu will do a great job with whatever figure he ends up with, both with the funding inside or outside the Kickstarter? All the Shenmue 3 forum has been dominated by is rewards talk and negative hype. It's tiresome and non supportive of a forum dedicated to supporting Shenmue and it's fans. Some of the posts we have read have been embarrassing, and it's a shame some "fans" are clouded by what they feel is right, when it's Yu Suzuki who will have made the decision to give all of these ideas thus far the go ahead to be made available.

Oh, what? Another "name a thing?" Shit.

So this is what they've stayed up til 1AM Japan time working on? This and an English translation of YuAskYu#2, which the fans already translated 2 days ago?

Oh yeah, silly me. Can't forget the new video thumbnail. Thanks guys!

New rewards pretty cool but it'll probably get 1 or 2 backers so won't make any real impact on the total.

Waiting for the campaign to end and for everything to calm down :)

It'll be fine... You'll barely even notice them, I guarantee.

Was this really necessary? You are a moderator and a leader on this forum. Not agreeing with every single thing on the KS makes people butthurt? Really?

*sign* I can't be annoyed by this anymore. It's just sad that they waste the last opportunities to gain a serious boost.

If they add the I AM SHENMUE and TEMPLE OF THE BLOOMING FLOWER rewards to this, I'll go for it. I'll have no money left but it will be totally worth it for Amir's Kabob Stand.

Some of you have been posting for days with nothing but complaints and whining about how awful AJ are and the rewards being inadequate. How about being happy thay Shenmue 3 is being funded, a game that we have been waiting for for a decade and a half?? Or being optimistic that Yu will do a great job with whatever figure he ends up with, both with the funding inside or outside the Kickstarter? All the Shenmue 3 forum has been dominated by is rewards talk and negative hype. It's tiresome and non supportive of a forum dedicated to supporting Shenmue and it's fans. Some of the posts we have read have been embarrassing, and it's a shame some "fans" are clouded by what they feel is right, when it's Yu Suzuki who will have made the decision to give all of these ideas thus far the go ahead to be made available.


Well said, buddy.
