CHUAPPX Expo Review & PayPal Rewards Poll

Greetings Backers,

There are two items on the agenda today. The first is question for you regarding the availability of Kickstarter rewards on PayPal and the second is a recap of Mr. Suzuki’s lecture at CHUAPPX Expo.

KICKSTARTER REWARDS ON PAYPAL Rewards labeled as “Kickstarter Exclusive” have not been offered on the PayPal site because we felt it was unfair to offer them after the Kickstarter had ended. There have been many requests, however, for certain rewards like the S3 World Telecom to be offered on the PayPal site. We would like everyone to weigh in and tell us what you think. If there is a strong consensus either way, the rewards will either remain as Kickstarter Exclusive, or will be offered on the PayPal site. Keeping our promise to you is very important to us; but at the same time, the PayPal site was set up precisely because fans could not back the Kickstarter and they feel they should not be penalized for that.

We have tweeted a poll so you can vote on the question. Please let us hear what you think! CLICK HERE for the Tweet Poll.

Next up, we have an abridged version of Mr. Suzuki’s talk at CHUAPPX.

Can sound a bit irresponsible from them but I think it's an excellent initiative.

Good to see that most people want the content also in the paypal campaign.

I was expecting the video they showed though :(

I'm indifferent here. Is this an update, considering bar the poll, we already know all the information offered.

I can definitely see the "Finishing touches" being put on the update...

Slide 4: "The Captivating traditional Marital arts of China..." :lol:

The poll is a good thing, I hope the Kickstarter rewards will be available for every backer.
Every cent counts for Shenmue 3.

It may still be a small sample but it appears that most people want to open the Kickstarter-exclusive items to Paypal backers. I fully agree, anything to help the Paypal campaign is a good thing. In fact, I'd prefer all game content be printed on the disc rather than some people get digital content unlocked or downloaded via code.

As a Kickstarter backer, I believe Paypal backers should also get the same rewards. There are a number of reasons why someone might not have backed with KS - such as an unaccepted credit card. These potential backers should not be left out due to something beyond their control. If it brings in more funds for Shenmue 3 by offering these KS "Exclusives" to the Paypal crowd, then it's a no-brainer. I have no problem with it and cannot understand why anyone else would.

PS: Still can't get over how beautiful Guilin looks so early in to development...

And I thought the mountains picture was a CGI...

I wonder also what were the arguments for being against ? To respect kickstarter backers ? To respect Kickstarter the company/association ?

For them I guess it's about trying no to piss someone off.

For the people that don't want it... I guess it's just a little bit of egoism.

I don't have twitter, just can read comments, how is the poll going ?

Yeah choosing Twitter is a bit odd. It's more a survey than a poll.

I am sure that many of us or people who couldn't donate during the KS campaign would love to be able to grab those rewards. What matters the most now is to reach 6.5m before the ending of Paypal's campaign. ;-)
