I salute you sir for this! I was considering selling my own car, which I bought pretty recently to have that chance if no one did. But I m bit broke now and I'm starting a family so I can't really do more than what I already have done. But thank you.

[Peter]

HAAHAAHAAHAA!

These guys are trolls, but their reactions are amazing. I cant stop laughing at the reactions!

Fast forward to 49:30

Folks keep in mind, Europe is still alseep. An entire continent is still to wake up and see this news

I'm in Europe but I couldn't sleep and thought that I would checke some news. First I read that some band member that I liked is returning to one of my favorite bands. Then right after that I read this news. Crazy. So I haven't even tried to go to sleep after that.

I was wondering earlier if you would show up or if you had given up on the game during these years. Apparently not considering this grand entrance

Apropos, considering you were one of the founders of this place.

I was starting to doubt that we would ever see this section of the dojo revived.

[Peter]

And this is all just a fraction of what was felt in May 2012.

So, what were some of you guys saying about the whole "Yu Suzuki would never do crowdfunding, he's too good for that?"

Anyway, not a big Shenmue fan at all. Probably the only one in the whole community who doesn't care as much. But Shengoro even gave me a phonecall to give me the news and I feel obligated to give it some cash. Not until the paycheck comes in, of course.

[MiTT3NZ]

75% funded in five hours. It'll be reaching stretch goals by the end of the day.

[Peter]

Over 150,000!!!

This is immense!!

Peter, stop. Turn around. Time goes that way.

Watching this kickstarter is like crack. Why do I keep refreshing when it auto-updates? What is wrong with me!?

I remember you saying long ago that you weren't a huge fan actually. So I guess that you're likely amongst a smaller group here.
I myself do care but kept things kind of cool. Though I react that way in general even if I get a job, win something, get good feedback etc. But also because I'm a bit cautious actually. I will probably get more excited if I see some progress and interesting features later on. And I would like to know the budget that they are really working with. It would really be a shame if they would have to compromise a lot due to money issues.

The Kickstarter funding is crazy though. Hopefully it leads to investors getting more reassured to back the project.
