10 million's the target, boys and girls.

You bet. We're probably better off e-mailing them our questions, in the interest of actually moving forward here with real and meaningful game development.

If I'm not mistaken, there currently are no questions about the free battle mechanic in the AMA!

Well this is a little bit of a crap shoot - all the relevant questions we compiled (ie. will the original Virtua Fighter battle mechanic still be used, explain the stretch goals) are more or less completely dispersed or are not even present on the new AMA and Suzuki is more or less rifling through a...

So, usually we shouldn't care much about the console wars or any kind of console partisanship. But - it really looks like Sony did do everything they could to make Shenmue 3 a reality, and as ethically as possible, too. I sincerely thank Adam Boyes for all his painstaking meetings held with Suzuki i...

Look's like our battles have only just begun. Want to know what kind of negative public perception we have to overcome to ensure Shenmue 3 becomes a real success? Well, here it is: http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidthier/2015/06/17/stop-donating-to-the-shenmue-3-kickstarter-right-now/ The worse thing...

Found this at GAF. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=168899118&postcount=6043 - QTEs were originally designed so that people who weren't very good at battles could still enjoy the game. - He wants to make 'free battles' (which are likely to have their name changed) less about pressing ...

Another big question focusing on a core gameplay mechanic: if anyone's kept up to date with that new Famitsu article, it seems like Suzuki wants to do away with the classic Virtua Fighter style 3D fighting mechanic in that he doesn't want players to have to practise and learn how to pull off directi...

Unfortunately AMAs can also have the tendency to become pretty damn chaotic with everybody asking questions that aren't always the most relevant. So, at the risk of sounding totalitarian even, not only is it important to review what questions we want to see asked, but it's also of importance that we...

Another new update on the Kickstarter regarding the new stretch goals: "Stretch Goals Revealed! There are plenty more where that came from and new ones will be revealed as we keep climbing. The next Stretch Goals on the list will add new systems to Shenmue 3 that will give a huge boost to the g...

Hmm...yes, these goals do seem to be quite vague and their attempts at trying to hype/publicize the Kickstarter fairly amateur. Then again, whoever it is that is actually updating this Kickstarter in English does seem to be fairly forthcoming in terms of trying to clarify FAQ questions (ie. there wi...

Wow. Despite the fact that we truly have achieved a great victory, the amount and kinds of continuing and ongoing activities that we must now dedicate ourselves to as a united community are surely dizzying: 1) That some people think that Sony's intervention in helping to fund *some* of Shenmue 3 bec...

Those are fantastic and very practical ideas. What's even more important at this moment however, especially because most fans or potential backers already think that victory has been achieved by the $2,000,000 goal already being reached, is what we as a Shenmue revival/support community continue to ...

Yes, you are correct about Mr. Suzuki saying that as I too recall that statement. For now though, it seems like Shenmue 3 is being strongly billed to be the final project for completing the saga. Of course, I don't know what the future will bring exactly. It's possible we fans may have enough in us ...

Like everyone else here, I'm overjoyed for the announcement but am also somewhat concerned about the breadth of the game. Will Shenmue 3 really be enough to finish off the entire saga's narrative? In particular, I'm curious about the game only including the three rural villages in mainland China. In...
