Amazing numbers, as always the case now. Nearly $6k in less than two weeks is impressive.

Fans doing repeat pledges, people who couldn't pledge first time around, people who were going to wait to see how the project goes before pledging, people who only just found out Shenmue III was a thing...

It's pretty encouraging that this much money comes in when they've shown relatively little up until now of the actual game. If the Slacker Backer site is still open by the time the first proper reveal comes around, and it impresses like it hopefully does... then we'll see a tidal wave of new pledges I think.

Why have the numbers not increased since the 11th? Just not updating anymore? Has the slacker backer come to an end? Thoughts?

They only update the page every now and then, the slacker backer continues.

What Hazuki00 said. This still isn't the longest we've ever gone before the numbers ticked over, but we're getting close.

We can assume they're incredibly busy right now and don't have the manpower to update the figures. It'll be nice when the numbers do update though, I'm estimating it'll be in excess of $25K.

Not quite the 25K I was predicting. :lol:

$6.8 million is in our sights, though.

No, but I still cling to the hope the HD Remasters become real at this E3, bringing in new fans and potential backers for III.

Ironically, we may be the primary culprits of the upcoming delay as we basically funded it.

yes, but i don't know, if i'am the boss of Sony PlayStation like Shuhei Yoshida, or Producer like Cédric Biscay and if i want have the best quality for Shenmue III, me i lanch a powerful trailer at E3 or Tokyo Game Show following by a small message help us on Paypal. And with this you can be sure to get some millions more with the highest emotions of poepole. easy no?

maybe i'm wrong, maybe this is enogh, and asking more it's not fear. but in production money is important for the final quality.

Risky. It might be courting controversy explicitly asking for more people to back the project like that.
