I really don't get this. We all know for certain that the PS4 physical copy is coming out albeit only at retail, not as a reward tier. But you know what's not a certainty? This game overall quality! So I just I don't understand how people would hold themselves from pledging more (if they can) because they'd prefer a plastic disc over having the power to make this the best game ever. After all the stretch goals are to add the extra immersion to the game, fulfilling Yu Suzuki's original vision and Sony could care less for those because they can't gauge their effectiveness at getting people to buy the game at retail price.
I don't see it being a set in stone deal, not at all. I had to import Drakengard 3 recently from the US to get a physical copy. I want the game to be a superb production certainly. But $200'000 requests for each and every feature seems a little excessive in my opinion. I would have thought considering the nature of the Shenmue series, when we reached the goal the environment should be just as immersive with many little details in the first place. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to hear that there will be additions and features to fill out the environment, Shenmue has always been much more than a sandbox game but I just don't know if I feel this approach is right.
