They unveiled a new stretch goal that was very reachable. They encouraged their fans to retweet, to maximize followers, to maximize YT views which would unlock new things in the game. They shared some developments updates, shared artwork, had some of their staff say some final words. Hyped up their ending stream (which they rehearsed) etc.

Also I see this:

Looking at the campaign you can see a VERY strong 100 tier with:
physical copy, backer-exclusive content and slipcase, plus a keychain, lapel pin, soundtrack CD (and digital album), a retro strategy booklet, and your name in the credits!

Another thing they had (appart from being on xbone/mac/linux) was aditional tiers for digital + physical.

@CedricBiscay With all due respect Cedric, the last rewards are useless. We need rewards that are less than 500$ that people can afford :S

there are a lot of hopes riding on Cedric and his 'bomb'. lets hope this is the ignition we need. he came through for us before with ps4 physical, something similar again might see us through to that much coveted kickstarter record.

There are still more than 72 hours, with the big spike in the last 2 days, there's time.

Not much, but enough.

Guys, don't you think the "bomb" could be a special edition of the Lan Di statue by First4Figures? ^^

PS: glad to be back.

On track for $90K+ today, so I'd go for tomorrow night (as in, the 15th). ;-) Expecting us to break the $100K daily barrier then.

I'm in the US at the moment and I've noticed the pledges slow right down after 4PM PST (midnight UK). Europe definitely has a big hand (or pockets) in this.

I'd be interested to see the country stats if they have them. I'd be interested to see how many people from Japan pledged considering there was like 40k viewers in that Japanese stream the other day, yet for some reason I don't feel like they've done much?

Yeah, didn't the original games sell poorly in Japan?

Kickstarter isnt a Japanese site so they probably dont trust it much and didnt back it. They will buy the game when it comes out at best. Even then, only people who already played the previous titles will be interested. Shenmue is a Chinese word and new eyes will probably be instantly put off by it.
