I appreciate your daily increase updates yokosuka. Seems that pre-sales are slowing down again. We have gathered about 220.000$ in the paypal campain so far. Guess it's not all that bad as long as the money is really going into producing a better game. I kind of worry that this extra money is just g...

Felt the need to post after reading so much of the negativity of this topic. First and foremost... Who gives a FªCK about wether or not the KS exclusives will be made avaiable on the slacker backer campaign?? The campaign is generating about 2000$ per day. Do you think this number will somewhat chan...

They don't seem to give a crap about this paypal campaign. They only put it up because it was somewhat demanded. I Think it will see a big surge around christmas time until the new year but nowhere near the crazy values of the final stage of the kickstarter. On a side note: by the end of the week it...

Some of these are really nice. Really capturing the "shenmue feel" there.
Great work.

The farewell to the Hazuki residence with the goodbye scene between Ryo and Fuku-San, followed by the last walk through Dobuita.
After the immersion shenmue offers, it feels as if you are leaving your own town, not knowing if you will ever be back.
Absolutely brilliant.

Thank you for this great interview. Good to hear the summon of the phoenix was something that was made entirely for shenmue online and not for the real shenmue story.

Plenty of useful info all over the interview.

Great job.

There is no sense of urgency this time around. Shenmue III is in development and the pay pal campaign will be up until the end of the year.

I would surprised if we got to 7 million all together to be honest.

Peter, you have given more than enough for the development of shenmue 3.
Time to spend money on yourself, so if you have saved up some money spend it when you are in monaco in nice dinners and book yourself a nice hotel.

Allways assumed full voice acting was a given, specially with all the translation languages made avaiable through the kickstarter stretch goals.

Agreed.

Shenmue II is a kickass game but Shenmue I is the "full on shenmue experience".
The immersion into the world, the vibe you got from running around the streets of dobuita or going to the harbor are really what lead to this hard core spartan like shenmue fanbase that exists today.

@ Anonymous81 : For once, I disagree with you. We have to limit the media bullshit by make clear the facts and slow down the disinformation virus. Biased people won't change their opinion immediately but they will be more able to do so when the next news turns in favor of Shenmue 3. And it's one mo...

I remember you too st. elmo's fire.

Regarding the member who helped me, it was netiher of those guys. It was way back in the day.

1 - Comments on youtube are allways like that. You see a winnie the poo video and people are killing and raping each oher in the comments section. 2 - If you had no idea what shenmue is, would you like that "trailer"? I mean it does state trailer in the decription, not "something we h...

Don't want to hijack your topic but... VYSE HAZUKY my portuguese mate, Shenmue III is coming out, where the fªªª are you?

Back in the old days where you didn't had internet in every device bigger than your thumb and when you had to wait a whole week to download a movie off the internet, i was searching in vain for the official sega's "shenmue the movie" that also came out with the xbox version latter. These t...
