Or it could just be that around a week ago, we all threw a combined total of 6.3 mil at them, and they are in no real hurry to get the Paypal page up because they know we're all currently broke :)

Re: Has anyone seen Wude? People are worried.

I don't know the extents the search has already gone to, so forgive me if this suggestion is something that you've already tried, but I noticed that you tried reaching out to him on Facebook. Have you reached out to anybody on his friends list, mainly people he might have listed as relatives or close friends? I know that there's a language barrier but if you haven't tried it yet, it really might be worth investing in a translator. I'd be willing to donate towards that and I'm sure other members of the community would be too.

Re: Gio Gorsi [The Point, Gamespot]- How Shenmue III came to

I really like this video actually. Sure, it makes reference to the whole "Kickstarter only used to gauge interest" idea, but it does it in a neutral way and looks at a number of different points and arguments. I definitely wouldn't say that they are misinformed unlike a number of other game journalists. It also shed some light on the planning of Shenmue III which is always nice to see.

(they also used snippets of my video which was a nice surprise for me :D )

Re: Best Food Ever.

Scottish Stereotype:

It's a fried pizza crunch (basically a pizza battered and deepfried) with chips and chippy sauce!

No, but in all seriousness, I have to agree that Mexican food is great. But Indian food is also fantastic. Went to a really good Indian restaurant (one that served the kind of food that they would actually eat in India and not our interpretation of it) and it was one of the best meals I've ever had.

BBC: Secrets of China

If anyone is interested, BBC's Billie JD Porter is currently doing a series of documentaries which look into the lesser known social issues facing modern day China. Despite the fact that this isn't even slightly related to the China we'll be seeing in Shenmue III, I still thought I'd share it here as it's a very interesting watch and it's still sort of vaguely relevant to this community. The first episode expires on the iPlayer this Wednesday.

If anyone wants to take a look, here is the link:

Re: Kickstarter Update #47

This is ridiculous. I can't believe that there are people here who actually think that it would be viable to make Shenmue III using the original Shenmue engine.
One minute, you complain that these pre-pre-alpha screenshots don't look good enough and point to a shit Shenmue and then next you suggest that using the DC engine would somehow make it all better? As if that engine is completely flawless? Do you not understand just how limited that would make the game. Remember all of those stretch goals that we so hope to achieve? They wouldn't be possible using the old engine. Maybe Shenmue III could have been done back in the day on that engine, but we need to stop living in the past. Shenmue III isn't a game from multiple generations ago, it's a game for the current gen and that needs to be expected and accepted otherwise it isn't going to be an enjoyable experience for anyone.

And for those who think that these incredibly early screenshots suggest that YS.NET don't know what they are doing, can we please use this as a reminder of just how much things can change:

Re: Kickstarter Update #47


What's the point of using a more powerful engine, if the people using such, are doing way worse then what has been done with another, yet older engine?

And what are you basing that on? Some pre-pre-alpha material? If you were to take a look at ANY game this early into development cycle, they'd all look much, much worse than the final project. Is the concept of improvement over time foreign to you? Or do you expect the team to finish in 3 months and then have some beers and kick it back for a few years before deciding to actually release the game?

I don't think it's fair to claim that he's a troll for suggesting this. He's not trying to bait or fool anyone, just sharing a thought.

Personally, I don't think the fortune teller has any relevance. Just seems like a hint system for stuck players, and obviously they'd want to make it look mythical explaining the similarities to the Phoenix mirror.

Re: The Shenmue III Font

We need to remember that it isn't just us. We need to appeal to new audiences with no prior knowledge of Shenmue and they aren't going to take a game in a series that's supposed to be 'revolutionary' seriously if the font is written in Papyrus.

Re: The Loading Screens - Kept or Removed?

When you do something that needs a loading screen such as enter a city or a building then, no doubt keep them. But in an open world where you can seamlessly cross into different regions, I don't think showing them for the sake of showing them is really a good idea.

Re: SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT - Shenmue: The Movie Remastered


That would great! At this point I don't what I'd want it to look like though. I was thinking of opening with the Shenhua prologue, then having a custom "title screen" per se that's similar to the original (the one I used as the thumbnail for the trailer), but obviously it would say Shenmue: The Movie . If it were animated that would be amazing, but a static background would be enough, and I could chroma key a flashing "press start" prompt over it. Immediately after that would be the iconic opening cutscene at the dojo.

I could easily do an animated version of the title screen, including a "Press Start" prompt. Just let me know when you want me to start on it and if there is anything else you want added to it! There's obviously no rush, so feel free to think of some more ideas. Feel free to PM me and hopefully I'll be able to get it exactly how you want it.

I can't even listen to the Shenmue theme anymore without hearing the "shing" noise where the logo was revealed in the E3 video. It's literally been burned into my mind.
This new material is so exciting. If it looks this good in a prototype stage, then I just can't imagine how good it will look upon release. Thanks to everyone involved for providing live updates and translations.

(April Fools) Project Update #55: Shenmue 3 by Ys Net

Hello backers!
In this month’s update, we are happy to announce some changes to Ryo Hazuki’s model, changes to the logo and clarification to Sony’s involvement in the funding of Shenmue III.
Here is a render of the new model:
https://i.gyazo.com/91688467361ae469c5abde7e5de230ee.jpg

As you can see, we’ve made many significant improvements. The first thing you might notice is the new eye texture. Shenmue I and II were very depressing games and we wanted to take Shenmue III in a new direction and make it a happier and more positive game. To achieve this, we’ve replaced Ryo’s cold staring eyes with brand new super happy eyes. We feel that this gives much more of a positive and happy vibe.

The next thing you might notice is the purple lipstick. We don’t have any information regarding this to share at this time.

If you look at Ryo’s shirt, you may notice that it is no longer plain white as shown in pervious iterations of the model. During the Kickstarter campaign, the social media website Twitter was vital. Backers and fans worldwide took to it to spread the good Shenmue word. We’d like to pay homage to that and to do so, we’ve included the iconic Twitter phrase #YOLOSWAG on Ryo’s shirt.

As for Sony’s involvement with funding, we can now reveal that we have secured a sponsorship deal! As you can see from the image above, Sony are now sponsoring the bandage on Ryo’s face.

And finally, we are pleased to announce some long awaited changes to the logo font. Many of you have voiced distaste in the Papyrus font and we hear you loud and clear. We’ve taken your feedback very seriously and used it to craft a new, improved logo that we think you’re going to love. We present to you, the new Shenmue logo:
https://i.gyazo.com/6b5ca8bc73c6a4e9d401da1088f1d5d5.png

Oh and also, Shenmue III is cancelled.

We hope you are as happy as we are with the new changes! Have a wonderful April.

- The Awesome Japan Team

Happy April, Dojo!

Re: E3 2016 & Shenmue 3

Almost 1 year after the big KS success and they are still "investigating" how to solve licence issues and make the game?

"Investigating" smells like a pr response made to nor confirm the thing and neither deny it, which saves them from the anger of fans if they denied it.

Reminds me of Yu Suzuki "looking into" Kickstarter for a couple of years. :P
Yeah but the difference is, unlike SEGA, Yu Suzuki actually gave a fuck about what the fans wanted and actively tried to please people because he knew how special the game was to all of us. SEGA couldn't care less about us. They're a faceless corporation who put profit and reputation first and passion (much) later. That's why I'm skeptical that SEGA will ever release an HD collection unless Sony or another investor bankroll it.
