Looking at it from a glass half full perspective though, at the very least all of the questions asked were relevant, even though we already knew the answers to some of them. I kind of wish more of the stretch goals were explained, but I really hope in the coming weeks, AJ steps their game up with the Q&A's, along with their kickstarter management.
I know someone put his twitter up, but lets try not to blast Joel Tess's twitter with insults. It might give you a good chuckle, but in the end it's ultimately counterproductive to running the campaign, and it makes us all look bad. Two fumbles don't make a right.
By the way though, what was up with the Fanta thing at the beginning? Are they a sponsor or something? I found that part to be very odd.

I mean, if he acted a little strange or not to your liking well, that's the world man. People are different. It was still shenmue info and shenmue info. You have to have a bit tougher skint than that. I watched the video with no problem after I got home from work..
Let's keep one basic fact an important thing in mind when your slinging negative things on the guy and people running the ks. Ok, rather they do a bad job or needs to change ... I can give you that. We want people to do a job well no doubt but
People are people, all people deserve repect and care to a big extent even if they aren't doing the things we like.
In a world where people make people, you can't really blame anyone for the person they become. The person we become is basically out of our hands, psychologically this is a fact since we are fed and given our personality.
Let's be a group that can stand tall and accept things for what they are , treat those things nicely as we can and push forward in a positive light no matter what. Because, all in all... you can only accept what is most of the time.
Shenmue will hit the target it is destined to hit, we will do more good by being positive than negative.
All in all, psychologically what I saw was the guy trying to be "exciting" and that was his way of trying to push the twitch stream and kickstarter. Now, while most will say it just looked stupid and crazy .. I can't really disagree. But, he had it in his heart to be the right thing. So please, understand that and don't make some person feel bad because they aren't what you are.
All in all, HE was just trying to be positive and make things Yu said seem exciting, is his acting of excitement a little crazy in many of your eyes. YES, is there something you do that soemone in the world will say is crazy, YES.
Point is, subjective is a strong thing you gotta learn.

All he was trying to do was lighten the mood and whilst he did come off as unprofessional, he hardly deserves to become hated and called all of these nasty, awful things.
Posting links to his Facebook and Twitter here is incredibly immature. Let's face it, he's going to get trolled on his personal social network pages.
At the end of the day, he's a human being with feelings that don't deserve to be hurt. He was clearly nervous about being on stream and was trying to play it off by overreacting. If people are going to roast him, it's just going to make his confidence worse which is really sad. I'm really disappointed with the general attitude here. I would have expected better.

The guy would repeat the exact answer that Yu Suzuki gave to us as a question, which has to go through the translator, back to Yu, back through the translator. There were a bunch of questions that were already answered 4-5 times in the kickstarter updates before the stream started, so he should've just compiled a list of all of those common questions and just went over them rapid fire in the beginning of the stream so we can get to new questions.
There should've also been someone dedicated to picking out questions from the comment section. All you have to do is scroll up to see all of the comments, and they would stop "moving too fast!". Let alone the video and audio quality was poor. Twitch streamers who stream for fun have better set-ups.
I agree with others who say that in the grand scheme, who knows how much a KS campaign management team REALLY affects the outcome. I think people want to buy a good product (Shenmue III) and cool shit (all the goodies from the tiers). But of course, you'd like for Shenmue III to get all of the positive help it can get.
