Kickstarter Update #14 - Yu Suzuki on Twitch this Friday

[wataro]

make your opinion HEARD if you are not happy with the professionalism of Awesome Japan.
Its too late to get rid of them, but not too late to re-manage the attitude.

I feel sorry for such a star like Yu Suzuki going from working at sega to working with these guys.

So glad I didn't stay up for this (3AM again).

Guys, Awesome Japan has absolutely nothing to do with the game outside of the Kickstarter, right? They're not involved in the development or anything like that, right? RIGHT? Oh God someone reassure me!

If looks could kill...



Gotta watch this later now.

Haha, I noticed it a few times during the stream. I felt a bit bad though for the guy. I got the impression that he was nervous and overreacted a bit due to that. But as I wrote in the chat here. You could see that Yu and the other translator had a look at one point that said : What the hell?

I wonder though why they even used Twitch if it was just an interview anyway? I registered there but it felt kind of pointless. Personally, I would have chosen "Google Hangout on Air" for this purpose. It would have been better in this case.
It immediately uploads the video to Youtube so that's less work for people here ;)
And instead of messages flying by you get the questions in the comment section. So they could have more easily picked out questions and people could give thumbs up to the best ones and downvote worthless spam.
Another idea is that they could have looked for representatives from different communities to talk to them live. I can assure you that we would have had more focused questions (instead of partly repeated ones) immediately directed to Yu. Twitch was a horrible choice I think.

Twitch was a horrible choice I think.

Not the only horrible choice Yu has made recently!

What disgusting hippy commune did they get this loser from?

[Axm]

This guy might become an internet meme...which may actually help Shenmue 3 Kickstarter unintentionally.

[Shenhua-Nani?]

Stop it Henry you are killing me...lmfao!

Seriously though guys please reassure me I'm starting to hyperventilate.

[Henry Spencer]

You're okay, they're just the guys running the Kickstarter, nothing important, or anything.

Of course they don't have any input into development. Breathe.

THAT GUY was running the Twitch?

Seriously, give the Kickstarter campaign over to the fans, we'd do a better job.

They made $40K yesterday and will probably make 60-80K today, so let's calm down.

[Axm]

Lets just hope he wont smoke most of the money we are pledging...sorry couldnt resist lol

p.s. they made that money thanks to new rewards, today we are back to 28-30k$
