Shenmue HD/3 Kickstarter

[Let's Get Sweaty]

In the nicest possible way though Ryudo, you're a hardcore gaming nerd. Most fans who catch a whiff of a Shenmue III Kickstarter won't have heard of, or paid any attention to, the situations that have made you twice shy. Even I haven't.

Why I used the word personally

6) Lastly, Kickstarter itself has guidelines stating that a project on the site must have "a clear goal, like making an album, a book, or a work of art. A project will eventually be completed, and something will be produced by it." Without Sega's prior approval, this cannot be guaranteed. The guidelines also state that examples of prohibited use include "promoting the donation of funds raised, or future profits, to a charity or cause." So a fan-organized Shenmue III fundraiser on Sega's unsolicited behalf would not even be allowed on Kickstarter.

I call bullshit on the one, Anita Sarkeesian used kickstarter to fund a video in order to spew some hate-filled, feminazi, misandric crap about how pretty much all video games objectify women.
She aimed for just 4000 dollars but got over 150,000 dollars and she still has not made this so called video and it's been over a year.
Her videos are based on nothing but her own heavily flawed theory's and opinions, nothing about charities.
Yet she's infamous for her kickstarter project, which looks like it's never going to start.
Probably blew it on a boob job, jewelry, cars and holidays.

I agree with everything else you stated though.

I want a kick starter to take every feminist and politician against vidya gaymz for idiotic reasons and take them all to Kennecott and bury them alive. What is that you ask? few mile wide and a mile or two deep hole in a mountain.

There's a difference between saying you're going to spend the money on a video (which is within your control), and saying you're going to ask someone else to spend the money on a videogame (which is totally out of your control).

Taken at face value, Kickstarter would have had no reason to believe that this Anita person's video would not have been made (any apparent personality flaws aside). However, taken at face value, Kickstarter would have no reason to believe that Sega would make this videogame - "Have you even asked them?" "Uh... No." "Then GTFO."

There's no bullshit to call. Kickstarter flat out don't allow it. If you have no rights to the IP, with the intention to buy it later or not, it's against the rules (and the law, obviously)

SEGA would probably spend the money on hookers n' blow if we funded 'em.

[wude]

Giving money to Sega is a bad idea :

Yeah most probably.

I would donate up to £200. Oxymoronically I would still rather not have a shenmueIII.

Conclusions are always better in the mind. Answers always deflate the original mystique. MGS4 told me this.

^Yu Suzuki is not and will never be Hideo Kojima.
Suzuki knows how to keep it elegant and classy. Meaningful.

Still, would like to know how it ends in your pretty head.

Eh no I stopped the raging passion and dreaming about it. I rather just have the stupid game so the series can be complete on my shelf. I can enjoy it then be done and mark one series off my list of ended at cliffhangers on 2 and will never get the 3rd.
