I backed at $100 on the Kickstarter. You give them all that info on the questionnaire that they will send you. They are working on those now and should be out probably earlier next year I would imagine.

I looked on the website and that only talks about if you want the PS4 or PC version. I guess time will tell.

The questionnaire will have various things on it including...
- Which version of the game you want
- Where to send physical items too
- What name you want put in the credits

There will possibly be other things as well, but those are the main ones.

Uh... 1, 2, and 4 are all basically derived from the same model, and have been retouched since they're all parts of promotional art.

Shouldn't the options be more like, I dunno... Dreamcast model, Passport model, Saturn model, Shenmue Online render, SIII prototype model, and SIII final model? Something like that?
Just a thought.

Joy's butt single-handedly raises Shenmue II from a 9/10 to a 10.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand the mindset of a Twitter account run by a moron spamming people with requests for 50 million dollar donations to something they couldn't care less about.

Because they do it by hand, it's not automated.

It seems that they have updated the kickstarter page's front image with the one that they showed as advertisement at te gamescom. They use the new Shenmue font by Suzuki.

I wonder if they'll show the complete and revised version of the 1st teaser with facial animation and everything before of the end of the year :-k

This is a great sign! The company that I asked to donate $50M refuse to answer whether they've donated or not. You know what this means? Ys Net obviously asked them to keep the information classified or something like that. Big things are going to happen, I'm sure!
Oh stop it.

I pre-ordered both Versions. Playing on PC is partly better than on Console. I have a new PC since the end of last year and i'm good things that when Shenmue III is released it will runs good. And it is the first Shenmue on PC.

Are you Shenmue_Legend?

i allready regeret subscribing to this forum. yesterday i preordered shenmue 3 trough paypal. the digital version.
I am not a ks funder. a latecomer to be exact. and im worried that also the digitial key is sent trough real mail(not email) this is ofcourse a worrysome thing cause the people that didnt fund can basically buy the game or key and redeem it instantly.

no i am not shenmue legend whoever that is. but im interested in why i would be him. has it to do with my sig? by the way i am not native speaker so forgive my grammar
you're too perfectly annoying to be real.

No, it's actually quite amazing. When you hear Ryo speak, he sounds like a true badass and just perfect. Unlike the Japanese version, where he doesn't sound very "cool". I mean, just compare the opening sequence of Shenmue I where after Ryo has Iwao Hazuki in his arms, he shouts "nooooo" in English compared to "father" in Japanese. Hands down, the English version is clearly superior in this instance.

You will forever be banned, you are not welcome here. No matter how many accounts you make because all you do is annoy others with your trolling and pestering others on Twitter.

According to the IP checks, you and Shenmue_Legend are one and the same.

I haven't got time for your split personality, so do one.

Sounds like a lot of us are playing Shenmue 3 already, on our D R E A M casts...

correct me if im wrong but from what ive read here over the years, this upcoming game (s3) will not be the end of ryo's adventure or shenmue. i was wondering, does anyone know what future chapter YS has in mind for the ending? s4? s5?

After having the game saved by passionate fans and not being open and transparent about the Kickstarter (Sony wanting to judge reactions more than fans 'saving' the franchise) I think YS has a damn cheek not to finish the story in this game (S3) If this bombs like the other two then theres little to no hope of another Kickstarter being successful. After having the game saved by the fans I feel he should end the series with this game.
If you're assuming what all the fans want is just a closure to the story, you're wrong.
I want a quality Shenmue game, and it can't be of good quality if Suzuki rushes the story and cut a lot of the content just to finish it up at Shenmue 3.

The chances of the game being a financial success are slim. If the story isn't finished up now, I doubt it will. Yes the kickstarter was successful, broke records etc, but how many non fans are interested in this game. Very few. It's taken over a decade to get the third, it should be ended. Also looking at the kickstarter updates it will be another decade before the game is released.
What would you prefer?

an excellently paced Shenmue game that follows Yu Suzuki original story outline, but not exactly providing closure?

Or...

A Shenmue game with terribly rushed pacing and cut corners, that sacrifices god-know-how-many story chapters just to 'End it' and provide closure


I know I'm picking the former. I don't mind if Shenmue's story is never resolved if the alternative meant we'd get a shitty closure.

Because...

Sony : Die monster. You don’t belong in this world!

Sega : It was not by my hand I was once again given flesh. I was brought here by Sammy who wished to pay me tribute!

Sony : Tribute!? You won't re-release Jet Set Radio Future on digital platforms, and you pulled Jet Set Radio from the App Store and Google Play!

Sega : Perhaps the same could be said of all religions…

Sony : Your words are as empty as your soul! Mankind ill needs a savior such as you! They need Yu Suzuki!

Sega : What is Suzuki-san? A miserable little pile of secrets. But enough talk… Have at you!

Will be interesting to see if they do their own updates separate from Awesome Japan, or if they're just going to re-release AJ's updates.

s2 mini games can apparently be installed onto the xbox and played without the need for the disc. (modded xbox)

While I agree, the Xbox version looks stunning emulated at 4k.

It already looks better than the HD port imho.

I'm about to experience Shenmue 1 for the first time ever, and later on in a few months, Shemue 2.

I know every now and then we get rumors or speculation, or even teased by Sega. But in all honesty, do you ever think we will see Shenmue 3.

Shenmue III was announced almost three years ago.
