Re: Shenmue 3 Kickstarter announced at E3 2015!

People think that 4.5 Million is the end of the campaign, when its really not. The video shows the other 2 locations with ?Million and we NEED to get them. We want Yu to make the game he has always wanted to, not a cut down version.

See, the Kickstarter was to make a point. That's all. Sony doesn't need our money for one game. They have deep enough pockets to fund the game if they see it's beneficial for the company. The Kickstarter was more successful than any of us could have hoped as far as getting Sony's attention. So the idea of hitting Kickstarter goals to attain the next level in the game is stupid. Sony is now fully awake to our desires. Just make the game.

I also expect a big push at the end. I didn't bite until today because I wanted to really think about what level reward I wanted. Once people see the end they'll make the purchase to ensure they get their fan merch. Also, a lot of people who live paycheck-to-paycheck can't drop $200 in a day's notice. This will give them a month to save up. I agree with the $5-6 million by the end. If they release more stretch goals I think that will also increase the amount past the $5-6 million. But again, that's stupid.

I also think they should add more reward tiers past $500. I certainly can't afford it, but I know others would love to spend $1,000+ if the rewards are...rewarding.

Re: Kingdom Hearts III

^Kingdom Hearts II tried catching people up on what happened on the spin offs between I&II and fucked it up.

The HD collections are out now so it's easy for people to catch up.

The thing I remember most about Kingdom Hearts 2 was that you play the whole prologue with Roxis and THEN you get the title card. It blew me away that it took that long for the title card.

Re: Shenmue 3 Kickstarter announced at E3 2015!

We need to form our own campaign to get people who have donated to add $25-$50 to their donation. No shaming just trying to ice the cake. Instead of the monthly capsule push lets do a "$30 on the 3rd" and everyone donate an extra $30 bonus or no bonus. As people have said this isn't about goodies. Goodies are cool but we want the game.

If everyone who've already donated added $30 it would add $1.2 million to the pot!

I'll donate another $30. That's three trips to the fast food restaurant. Who will join me?

"$30 on the 3rd" - ROAD TO $10 MILLION

--- UPDATE 6/27/15 ---
Guys, I've been working feverishly today to get this site up. It's collaboration between me and my wife. She does the design, I do the coding. I think we make a good team. So, as you tweet and share about $30 on the 3rd please direct people to this website that will explain the campaign to people who may not understand:

http://www.30onthe3rd.com/


--- UPDATE 6/25/15 ---
I'm beyond excited about the response this campaign is getting! Thank you everyone!

As we're quickly approaching the 3rd of July we need to all step up our efforts to promote "$30 on the 3rd."

We need to focus on a different social media every day. Let's say days with an odd number focus on Facebook and even days focus on Twitter. If you see a $30 on the 3rd post share it. And every time you check the Kickstarter page for whatever reason leave a comment with $30 on the 3rd. I'm sure they get buried pretty quickly so the more often the more chance new people have to see it.

We REALLY need to get in touch with Yu and Awesome Japan and get them to promote the push. No one is going to have the audience they do. Can someone see if Aizen can tell Yu about the campaign and see if he can tweet it?

Also, don't dwell on the chance that this may not move the needle much. If you aim at nothing you'll hit it every time! Focus on $10 million! I know Yu is.



--- UPDATE 6/20/15 ---
So Yu Suzuki needs $10 million. This is NOT unreachable. It's actually VERY reachable. If they open donations to PayPal as they've suggested it will become the avenue to Yu's goal. If we continue with the monthly thunderbolt and focus our efforts on donating $30 on the 3rd of each month we WILL hit that number. I anticipate the Kickstarter will end up earning between $6 millon and $8 million because at the end everyone who hasn't donated will scramble to get their rewards and those who have extra cash to throw at it will do that. Even if it only makes $5 million that's fine.

PayPal is the ticket after July 17! If they keep PayPal open indefinitely we can continue to give month after month. And that's where the "$30 on the 3rd" makes BIG strides for the campaign.

$30 is nothing to most people. If you are struggling to make ends meet, please take care of yourself and your family first. But for those of us who are stable enough financially we can make a HUGE impact for Shenmue. $30 each month adds up, fast!

Mods, please sticky this. I really feel like this is the best route to take. We also need to get the Shenmue Kickstarter/advertising team, Twitter, Facebook groups, the Dojo homepage and any other non-English speaking Shenmue fansites involved to promote this idea.

Stay sweaty!

-- END UPDATE --

We need to form our own campaign booster to get people who have donated to add $25-$50 to their donation. No shaming for people who may not have donated very much, we're just trying to ice the cake. Instead of the monthly tweetathon on July 3rd let's do a "$30 on the 3rd" and everyone donate an extra $30(or more).

At the current count if everyone who've already donated added $30 it would add $1.24 million to the pot!

I'll donate another $30. That's three trips to the fast food restaurant or four trips to Starbucks. Who will join me?

My twitter is pathetic, so whoever organized the tweetathon feel free to take over in boosting this effort on Twitter and Facebook. And mods, move this post around if you want to use it in the News section.

Re: Shenmue 3 Kickstarter announced at E3 2015!

I'm building a list of stretch goals to send to Yu and Ys Net to help improve Shenmue III's Kickstarter funding. Here they are:

Stretch Goal Suggestions
Feature Extra: Drive vehicles
Feature Extra: Customize Clothes
Feature Extra: Customize Room


While these may make sense in most open world games now, do we really want resources going to something trivial like Ryo changing clothes and driving vehicles? If we were talking about a multimillion dollar AAA game, sure throw it in. But we're lucky we're getting a third game. I'd much rather they put their efforts and money toward story-driven elements.

We'd have to edit the video to skip a few parts, but if we can get someone to voice Fuku-san(shouldn't be too hard) and Corey to change a little of the dialogue it would be awesome! We'd also need someone to capture that part of the game, preferably in HD. What do y'all think?

I thought it would be cool for Corey to do a VO right after he says "it's not enough." The VO would describe the $30 on the 3rd campaign.

Re: How much will you sacrifice to get Shenmue 3 to $10,000

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 able to contribute.

Also...you just said these words: "Shenmue 3 could not have been announced at a worse time." Stop and think about that. Man, we're freaking getting Shenmue 3!!! Don't get stressed, everything's going to be fine.

Re: Joel "red shirt" Tess Discussion Topic (Twitch)

There's an easy way to settle this argument...like him or not, after seeing his performance last night would you hire him to do the marketing of a game that has one more chance to prove it's worth resurrecting after 14 years? No, none of us would. There is too much on the line to act like a 16 year old(no offense to you teenagers) especially when your in the presence AND WORKING FOR one of the top video game developers in the history of gaming.

I've got absolutely nothing personally against him, I'm sure he's an ok guy when you get to know him. But he made that interview last night HIS interview. Pure speculation but I wouldn't be surprised if Yu is related to one of them(my money isn't on Joel) because the only reason you wouldn't cut them loose after last night is family.

Re: "$30 on the 3rd" - ROAD TO $10 MILLION

We also need to think about one last campaign between the 3rd and the last day. I know most will be squeezing out everything they have on the 3rd but it seems to work with PBS and televangelists. It could just be for those who missed the 3rd campaign to make the last day count or something. And of course it would help if they added more reward tiers.

EDIT
Also be sure to follow me(@nicknichols2049), @shenmue_dojo and @thegamefor3. Then retweet our stuff like crazy. I really don't care about gaining followers and only used my employers Twitter before $30 on the 3rd but once I saw how bad awesome Japan was doing I figured it was only going to get better if WE made it better. So now I'm glad when I see a few follow me. I even got a follow from Corey Marshall. I sat up so fast in bed last night my wife thought it was a bug. That was really exciting.

Re: Others that are upping their Pledge on the third?

I know what I say here will make no difference as the whole of this site seems to be intent on this "$30 dollars on the 3rd thing”.
I came up with the idea, so I’ll tell you where I’m coming from and hopefully that will give you a better feel of why I think this is a good idea.


1. Most Shenmue fans aware of the kickstarter will have already have pledged as much as they can afford
3. The whole thing is insulting for the fans who can't afford to up their pledge
Anywhere that I’ve posted a big explanation of the campaign I’ve tried to be clear about this: If you’ve pledged all you can, you’ve done an awesome job and you are highly appreciated in your efforts to help us fund Shenmue. The last thing I want someone to do is to feel discouraged because they can’t give more than others. And I definitely don’t want anyone to let their household’s finances slide or go into debt just to help video game. Real life is so much more important than a video game. So I hope no one thinks I, or anyone else, is pressuring them into squeezing any more money out of their budgets. I only speak from my finances in that I can give up a few fast food meals here and there to get just a few more dollars.


5. Since this new initiative is essentially hijacking the long established tweetathon which uses #SaveShenmue, a slogan Yu Suzuki and his team now also embrace, people may assume this initiative has Yu and his team's blessing (when it doesn't), or was even organized by them themselves, and as such, this runs the risk of reflecting badly on them.
Hijacking? I don’t have a problem with #SaveShenmue but concerning Twitter you’ve got hardly any space to explain anything and half of it is used for @’s. We have #SaveShenmue to thank for just that, saving Shenmue. But now it’s time to look beyond that. We’ve got essentially 30 days to raise as much money as we can for Yu.


As I said, I'm sure no one here will listen, but this idea smacks of desperation and lack of forethought.
Desperation, probably. There’s not one of us on this forum who isn’t desperate for Shenmue. And you’re right, it took no forethought because all the forethought required was “I bet people can add just a few extra dollars on the top of what they’ve pledged.” There were a lot of ideas in the first few days after the announcement. I, and many others, felt like this was the best shot we had to add to Yu’s warchest. And we’re dealing with so little anyway. I had two followers on Twitter when I started this: my wife and my cousin. Now I’ve maybe doubled that, maybe even tripled. I’ve always relied on the Dojo and 500k to do the heavy lifting.

I guess if you can think of another idea that would be more beneficial, by all means, get the ball rolling. $30 on the 3rd was meant to be simple, easy to promote and have a clear deadline.

Re: A suggestion re this fridays q&a with yu Suzuki...

I have access to the Dojo's twitter but I'd probably rather leave putting the most important questions up there up to someone else for now as I'm still not very good with Twitter and we don't want to mess this up.

So you think it will be best to ask the questions on friday, while this is running? It makes sense but I thought it maybe he has by then already picked his questions and will answer them. So maybe it's better to post the question earlier?

I guarantee they will pick some, if not all, questions before hand. They don't want what happened in the Twitch to happen again. I would say we should ask the major questions on Friday afternoon(USA time) and then ask them again that night. We can also ask the smaller questions that night.


I think it'd be good to start asking straight away. I've just downloaded d twitter app. Who do we send the tweets to? Is it @shenmue_3

I'd say #SaveShenmue and #YouaskYu. Definitely #YouaskYu though if space is a problem.

Times running out and I am starting to lose hope. I've done everything in my power to make it happen, from contacting every person who could possibly make it a reality, to already selling off some of my most prized gaming treasures, which may turn out to be for absolutely no reason.

Again, a selfish question I know, and I apologise.

Does Cedric know? That's just turning down money if they don't let you. Yu has to eat dinner some time. Maybe they could accept just a private donation non-Kickstarter related and let you go another night. Don't worry about it being selfish, you're not just asking for it to be given to you. You've given up stuff that's important for the opportunity.

$30 on the 3rd - PLAN OF ATTACK

Tomorrow is the big day. I’ve been encouraged to make a thread that will detail our plan of attack. This is the really difficult part because it’s hard to pick a time that’s good for everyone. I’ve decided on UCT 6 p.m. because the main countries representing the Shenmue fanbase seem to be in the Americas and Europe(apologies if I leave your country out of my generalization of the fanbase).

So I’ve calculated the times based on that and included them below. Don’t feel like you have to donate exactly at this time. I’m trying to give us the biggest spike in donations so we make an undeniable impact.

PDT 11 a.m.
MDT 12 p.m.
CDT 1 p.m.
EDT 2 p.m.
———————
UCT 6 p.m.
BST 7 p.m.
CEST 8 p.m.
EEST 9 p.m.

Donating is the easy part. Our other job on the 3rd is to post to Facebook, tweet on Twitter and comment on the Kickstarter page. Make sure to included #SaveShenmue and a link to 30onthe3rd.com to explain the campaign(especially on Twitter as space is a factor). Don’t bother with a $30 on the 3rd hashtag as #SaveShenmue is the fans’ official Shenmue hashtag and is recognizable. I’m going to need Dojo and 500k mods to PLEASE retweet and share the major social media posts. These official groups have the reach we need to boost our posts to the biggest audience. My twitter is @nicknichols2049. Please, join my 9 followers. Joking, I really don’t care about followers as I didn’t care about Twitter until this Kickstarter. I only tell you that so you’ll know the posts that are mine. I’ll be tweeting and posting to Facebook all day.

I’ll also update the 30onthe3rd.com website to show the times to focus our Kickstarter donations. If any of you can translate the times into the other languages that would be VERY helpful. I have no idea how other countries write their time.

This could be the last big push we the Kickstarter gets before the end. And we can’t rely on Awesome Japan to provide incentives for those who have donated to donate more or those who haven’t donated to donate at all.

And please understand me when I say this…This campaign is by no means meant to strong-arm anyone into donating more or make anyone feel like they haven’t done their part. Your responsibility to take care of yourself and your family are of much more importance than a video game and in December 2017 you’ll still have the chance to play the game whether you helped fund it or not.

Dojo mods, please sticky this or post it on the home page for maximum exposure.

This is the time! For Yu!!

Let’s get sweaty!!!

It was a victory for Shenmue fans. That's the most important thing. And they didn't coincide thre event with $30 on the 3rd. It was #SaveShenmue. And the physical PS4 was the big money maker. I'd say $30 on the 3rd would have pulled in $60k on its own. But it's so hard to say. Again the important thing is we couldn't have raised $300k+ without the fans devotion to getting the word way!

Obviously not the mirror version, but this dragon graphic is now done. Will update my original post.

Re: Are you looking forward to checking into Hotel Bird Danc

I look forward to walking into a corner then having to turn around but then walking into a table before finally turning around and leaving the room. Can't wait!

Re: We have time: Let's all commit to & promote a 7/15 spike

hey elfshadowreaper

would you be willing to spearhead another fan initiated campaign to promote the final 3 days, since you did such a good job with 30onthe3rd.

call it what you will, but my suggestion is 'The Final Push - Make your dreams come true'

i can see that fans really want a 'thing' to get behind that they can spread the word about and that can create excitement.

i envision several days of 'events'. that could be know collectively as 'the final push'

i don't think we should specify any donation amount but there should be an understanding that this is really a 'last chance' for pledges.

what do you think?

I've been trying hard to come up with a final push. The only thing that keeps popping into my mind is "The Final Blow."

I'll try to get a logo tonight. I won't be home until late though.
