Seriously, what is this thing? How did he manage to gather so many followers?

Does it even honestly matter? And what does it have to do with the original Shenmue in general? I do not click on random links and the amount of followers I can care less about, but more if it concerns Shenmue 1.

It matters because it has been there for years, it's cringe and now has a pic of Shenhua with pierced eyes(!).

It's a poorly programmed bot. Its designer picked up on Shenmue as a hot keyword and it just trawls for others to compose random tweets that might get it noticed and followed, presumably by people with a terrible grasp of English.

It's Shenhua with pistols in her eyes. Which is even more confusing.

I must be retro... I only learned of Twitch a few weeks ago, still do not understand it nor why people would waste their time watching others making a fool of themselves and even paying them. I still do not do Facebook, Tweet, Instacrap or anything else. Forums I am good with though. 8)

Twitter has become the leading source for journalists and gamers across the planet.
Has been instrumental in making possible Shenmue 3 resurrection (#Save Shenmue campaigns).
Twitter = world. You're in or you're out. You're out. Now please take that minitel. 8)
