Bright initiative. I can pay for a 50-dollars banner.

It would be a good idea to link the banner with a central page explaining what is Shenmue, the presentation of the new features, the paypal link and some clarification about the funding. In other words, what the kickstarter page should have been from the beginning.

No update to the total amount pledged in 4 days...

I hope it's a big boost when they do get round to updating it.

The page has been updated this morning...

6'475'615$ total amount and 10 days left.

We need 24'385$ for the Ragdoll Reaction stretch goal.

I really really hope there will be a Kickstarter update aaround Christmas.

It would be a shame (as a symbol) to miss the stretch goal for only a few dollars.

Because I clearly have too much time on my hands right now, here's the daily progress of the Slacker Backer campaign since November 2nd (the earliest data I have). Dates in capitals indicate precise amounts for that day, all others are averages due to the totals not being updated on the website.

It's a gradually positive trend overall, but the next stretch goal won't be reached at the current rate of incline. That will only happen with a significant shift in gears during these final days, which is not unthinkable but would certainly be helped by some last minute additions/changes to the campaign.

we need the $30 on the 30th. And everyone has to get behind it not matter what. This is our last chance.

I plan on dropping maybe another $60 for another PS4 copy. I dunno who I would need to talk to, bit I would take the jacket if a long term payment plan could be offered.

if any of those 341 people managed to pledge and cover the $50 cost in advertising I am happy.

Similar to the end of Kickstarter boost, the PayPal campaign seems to have gotten a similar trajectory of increased pledges in the final days. Wonder if they know the PayPal is getting extended... Maybe nobody should tell them and just keep the days remaining at 1. :lol:

Wow Yokosuka! That's really great! =D>

My intention was to make a new pledge if the upgrade option wouldn't show up before the end of the PayPal campaign, but since it has been extended I'm going to wait some more hoping that eventually they will propose the upgrade for Kickstarter backers. If that doesn't happen, then I will back Shenmue 3 one last time.

$6,498,224 --> $6,507,657 (+9433)
71,203 backers --> 71,259 (+56) ($168 per new backer)

Full ragdoll system unlocked, congrats.

Yu Suzuki :
Some of you may know what the Ragdoll physics is. If you release the strength of the body, it becomes like a doll, that's not really natural. That's why we're working on the «Motion Blending», adding some resistance to the muscles for example, to obtain realistic moves.

In a Virtua Fighter scene, patterns were determined by the Motion Capture, but with the Ragdoll physics, moves won't repeat over and over. If you get into something (like a wall) the reaction won't be the same. In fact, I'd like to combine the «Ragdoll Physics», the «Motion Blending» and «IK Constraint» to make the NPC and battle's reactions as real as possible.
