Are there going to be free battles in the game ? If so what is the new scrolls system and how it relates to the qtes?

Or somehing like that.

Mr Suzuki, can you please confirm when Shenmue Online will be released?


............ :mrgreen:

Seriously though, it'd be interesting to see Yu playing the original two games and giving his insight into aspects of their production. But at the same time, I guess a Q&A about Shenmue III may prove just as insightful. :)

1) Rearrange KS page with stretch goals front, push Awesome Japan to cooperate with Shenmue Dojo on daily basis.
2) Please NO COSPLAY! Fans settled with the look of Shenmue chars, so besides polycount, clothes physics and retexturing:

btw, don't you think it's a good idea to have alternate clothes and outfits to change into? having the base clothes is important and I think they will have that. But, I think having clothes and things to change into would be an obvious addition. Tekken and other fighters have a ton of clothes swap and things nowadays that people enjoy. Having a black jacket for Ryo would be alright if it was a choice?

you're totally speaking for yourself there, i don't think fans settled for anything. changing from leather jacket and jeans to some traditional chinese martial arts stuff might just be part of the story..

Agreed, it would actually show Ryo's evolution.

Will try to make it myself but I'm not sure, might be working - earning those precious British pounds to up my pledge.

Here's two I wouldn't mind asked in my absence:

"In previous Shenmue games, Ryo fought martial artists who fought with Virtua Fighter fighting styles. Will there be more Virtua Fighter fighting styles encountered in the game, and will these be necessary to progress or maybe secret encounters?"

"Fighters Megamix features a track on one of its endings. It's called Ending H ~ Last on the album and it resembles the Shenmue theme. Was this the original beta theme for Shenmue in its infancy on the Sega Saturn?" (For those interested - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2HTZT42hSM)

If I won't or can't be around again when this happens, please put these questions forward for me. I missed the chance while the AMA was running, after the fake one happened and always wanted to get some insight on these.

- In Shenmue II people thought the game would end after the Kowloon chapter, with Ryo starting his Journey to Guilin. It felt so in line with the ending of the first Shenmue. Was this originally planned as the ending of the game, with Guilin added later on? Or was the Guilin chapter always ment to be in the game with it's cliffhanger ending?

- The earliest shown footage of Shenmue during it's Premiere happened to be from Shenmue II, showcasing Wan Chai. Back then the area looked vastly different from what it does in the final game. Wan Chai looked very drab and muted, almost polluted. In contrast the Wan Chai we got in the end is a much happier and brighter looking place, with vibrant colors. What lead to this design change?

- In Shenmue, saving is restricted only to Ryo's room. While in town it's only possible to make a resume file, wich forces the player to quit the game and when it is loaded, it will be deleted. Why were these restrictions necessary?

"11. Can you push Awesome Japan to cooperate with Shenmue Dojo on daily basis."

I think that might come across as rude.

The only thing I want to know is

"What size is the artbook?" I hope it's a full A4 artbook and not a little postbox sized one.

Ok, I'll add and make a few edits. We obviously don't want to sound rude :)

Thanks guys for the interesting questions to be added. Really enjoy them.

We should really have a question in there regarding Paypal as a means of funding after the Kickstarter has finished. We really need to push this question to Yu and Biscay every single chance we get.

Play the game until his father is killed, wake up and begin SH3. It seems perfect to me. I need a reminder anyways :D


Who is Ryu?

And play the game until his father gets killed... So you are saying the should have the opening movie sequence of Shenmue 1 in Shenmue 3? Well, I guess that's gonna be in the movie shorts anyway, so what's the point of remaking that movie sequence in the new engine? That's how Shenmue 1 starts. Iwao gets killed before you actually PLAY.

If you need a reminder, here you go:

I mean, it will be cut and can be in different sequences and parts. It's like a flash back, for any of you that played horror titles that have flashback like moments, they are sort of a bit story driven or random. I think batman does it a little but not really as part of the story.




*I'm also going to forward these questions to them via the KS. In hope that they see and read them and maybe can give us a few answers to them over the stream.
