Like, how are japanese people reacting to it ?? Are there chinese people ??
Shenmue Online was supposed to market the chinese market, probably they should give a call to Mao or something to promote the KS

I thought it was already official; wasn't that Corey's voice in the trailer?

I'm pretty sure they are trying very hard to bring everyone back for both languages. They know that it's what the fans really want.
Yu Suzuki tells in that interview that the relationship with Sega is excellent and they have complete access to the first two games in order to use what they find necessary for the third episode. There's a trust based relationship.
There's an Arcade room previewed as a Stretch Goal!!!!!
Ryan Payton of Camuflaj also tried to convince Yu Suzuki to make a Kickstarter campaign. In the end Yu Suzuki chose Cédric Biscay as a partner instead (this was 2 years ago).
The images that we see on the Kickstarter project presentation movie and on Sony E3 stage are really from the proper game. Unreal 4 is the engine used. It was a prototype running on the engine but it was gameplay, not a movie.
Cedric Biscay is a Japanese Culture enthusiast with professional and personal knowledge in Anime, video games and Japanese movies. He and his company have already done some work in distributing Japanese specific media/culture mainly in Europe. And their main responsibility will be promoting Shenmue 3 in Europe.
Cedric Biscay is a Shenmue enthusiast and his company is based in Monaco and has experience in distributing and promoting Japanese culture in the West. And though they are a small sized company they have an established network of connections in Japan and Europe.
Cedric Biscay specific role in Shenmue 3 production is to actively find additional budget sources and promotion of Shenmue 3 (in Europe at least) and they are also in charge of the development of the PC version.
There's a release date of end of 2017. There could be delays of course but at this moment they are pretty confident in that tentative release date.
On the 27th of February Cedric Biscay and Yu Suzuki will be at Salon Magic at Monaco and there will be more exclusive info about Shenmue 3 at that event.

Hmm, it was close but it sounded a little different, someone should ask him

For those of you who are commenting on figures and freaking out about this and that... All I can say is try your hardest to be patient. That's all.
In the past hour, the Kickstarter jumped 10,000. I mean that's a lot of money by any stretch of the imagination.
The only disappointment I personally have, which is an unavoidable consequence of a Kickstarter, is that I don't have more time. I want and could give so much more!! I would kill to have had a little time to get up my 10,000 and achieve my dream of meeting Yu Suzuki and giving to the top pledge. It's not out of my financial range at all, but 30 days isn't enough time for me to achieve that :(
