Don't worry about the Kickstarter man. You need to take care if yourself first. There's no shame at all with dropping some of your pledge. Donate what your wallet says first, then your heart will be good with that too. I fully expect them to open PayPal after the Kickstarter. So you'll always be ab...

Considering how direct Ys Net has been about it not being available during the Kickstarter, I am almost certain that releasing a physical edition is worked somewhere into the agreement between Ys and Sony. Sony probably wants exclusive rights to distribute the game physically in order to profit off ...

Shenmue 3 could not have been announced at a worse time for me seeing how I just built a $1500 gaming PC back in May, I have 4 cavities that need to be filled, I need new glasses soon, and I have a $200 tech certification exam to pay for next week. However in order to fund the $550 dollar pledge I'v...

God, this sounds so awesome! I hope this is what the rapport system becomes!

Has anyone else noticed how once we're about to hit a $1000 gain, or even more so a 10k gain, a noticeably large amount of pledges get revoked? I might be wearing a tin foil hat, but I swear there is troll pledging going on. Anyone else notice this or is it just me. Coincidence maybe?

Shenmue is well on its way to earning at the very minimum 6-million by the end of the campaign. I have no doubt that it will beat Bloodstained's amount and will become the most funded KS video game campaign. The pledges have slowed down significantly, especially over the past couple of days, but thi...

A few of these are currently in the works by team Ys Net, some might be in the works (nobody knows just yet, and some have not been addressed at all: - provide Paypal payment option on KS page - provide additional funding tiers and rewards - expand to other platforms (XBOX 1, Wii U) - Provide Paypal...

Its an odd predicament. For older retro games I wanted physical copies, but I have 200+ games on steam that I couldn't care less about having the box. And honestly this KS campaign is not about whether we get this game digitally or physically. It is about making a game happen and making it all it c...

I guess my question for all the people saying that the complaining about Shenmue 3 is justified is, do you actually think Yu would have ever agreed or wanted to make this game in any way if he knew the resources available to him could only result in a mediocre or shit game? I am 100% certain that th...

"oh, yeah I want Shenmue 3, but won't support it unless they announce a physical PS4 version." When was this actually said here in the forums? I haven't seen this once yet, though I can't keep up with reading every single post here of course. I generally haven't seen that many negative co...

We've seriously been begging for Shenmue 3 for 14-years and now that we are finally getting the game for sure at this point, I cannot believe that people are seriously complaining! I am not even talking about the management of the KS page or the campaign in general, but people being like "oh, y...

Sadly this campaign has experienced a lot of hurdles since it launched which cumulatively have probably resulted in at least a 25% decrease in potential backers. These include very poor management of the KS page, tons of misinformation about funding, and the fact that still a lot of people aren't aw...

I will be donating $30 on the third as well, but inevitably I will be dropping at least $1000 before the campaign is over. I am funding a large portion of my donation to the KS by selling off pieces of my game collection. Compared to Shenmue, none of my other games even come close to being as fun an...

I beat Shenmue back in 2003 and Shenmue II in 2004.

Since then I graduated high school (2005) and college (2010), have switched careers, have been in about 10 relationships, and have moved about 6-times. So yeah, a lot lol

I'm sure at this point they've taken notice. Depending on how well the KS goes I wouldn't be surprised if they did some re-release of the first two games.
