(still waiting on the) May update

[Let's Get Sweaty]

^ It's not a real interview. It's another thigh slapper from the busy desk of SMDzero.

Can we expect the traditional "Shenmue experience "?

Suzuki

: Obviously it's the true sequel to Shenmue 2 so you can expect a lot of detail. For example, one thing we have right now is, if you hit a guy blood sprays out and hits the wall and drips down. It looks really nice.

This bothers me more than it should. I know that real fights can easily get bloody, but I don't like to think of Ryo as violent or cruel. Most/all of his fights are self-defense.

How Complete would you say the game is?

Suzuki

: Oh, we are way early on it. We're currently about 30% complete.

Sounds great to me, considering that they haven't even been at it for a year.

You got fooled, son.

I sincerely hope nobody else is taking SMDzero's post as an actual interview. If it hit the press it'd probably be another PR garbage fire we'd have to put out.

I swear, YSnet should get some of us to be made fan ambassadors like Ali due to the amount of work we put into being free PR for the game.

Mr357, SMDZero is just making shit up again ;) He has way, way too much time on his hands

Great interview. Don't even tell me it is not real. I'm in denial.

I should have looked at the username. Jeez, it sounded so much like Yu too.

@SMDZero

At first I saw the user and I thought I was in for one hilarious interview parody... but then as I read the first half I thought I was reading the real deal, and I genuinely believed it until Yu's dialogue exchange goes real haywire to downright nuts (Shenmue 2 HD casually said as if it were nothing of interest lol) well done for fooling me SMZ! Bravo! Now stop trolling w/ my emotions! :-p
