That's a surprise. Usually if it's in the cache it's due to go live the day after.

Hm. Bailu Village shots did show a pumpkin patch after all...

Wow I guess you would be the perfect fortuneteller because, indeed, it's likely to happen Monday considering the content lol.

Can you say me what will be the trailer for December?

I thought the pumpkin in the picture was a clip from a new screenshot sitting in the cache, but then I remembered the MAGIC screens from Feb.

Still, I feel like a kid at Christmas even when I know the updates are going to be small.

Peter is one among the few Shenmue fans to know :mrgreen:
Therefore, to quote him: "Something that is going to change the entire complexion and opinion of Shenmue 3."

Let's just hope there's really going to be a treat in December. [-o<

Wait, does Peter actually know something? I thought he was just optimistic based on his time with Yu and the video he saw.

When I say he knows, it's only based on what he (and LanDC or Adam Sipione) said about the video at the backers dinner and his recent message on this thread.

I'm just doing Fantasy Shenmue here, just like I would do Fantasy Football to kill time. :D

If Peter knows something, he didn't tell me anything more than he told to us all on this forum (and he told us a lot already).
We just REALLY need to be patient.

I doubt what Peter/LanDC saw will be shown at PSX

First off, it seemed like test footage, with Shenmue 2 characters imported to UE4 as Placeholder models.
Secondly, by December, it will be outdated.

So we will probably see something different (and hopefully better), since all the public eyes will be focused on such a big event like PSX.

I'm also hoping for a Shenmue 1/2 HD announcement... The time is right.

Oh, of course. They're not going to show the same video in December, it'd be six months old by that point regardless of placeholder materials.

But it does bode well for finally seeing beyond the prototype Bailu Village we've known about since last year, given the comments that they're further along with the game world than any of us know.

What I mean by changing the complexion and opinion of Shenmue 3 is the general mellow relaxed, sometimes agtitated feelings of the fans considering we are 15 months since the Kickstarter finished, and all we have had is a very ropey tech demo from the announcement trailer, a few testing screens and some sweeping shots of Shenhuas home, and Bailu Village. Nothing major or over the top.

The trailer that will be shown will be a polished cut (I don't understand why people doubt what we have been told directly from the team) of what we were shown and I can only give my opinion on my own personal interpretation of it. Compared to having zero Shenmue 3 for 14 years and then a few teasing shots and videos since the Kickstarter, this video blew me away. Not just graphically that it actually looked like a quality design compared to what we have had, but also because somehow with a new engine and team, it still looked absolutely Shenmue. It looked like Shenmue on the Dreamcast with better graphics. There's a sort of trailer spoiler I can't reveal whatsoever which is right at the start, and when you see that right from the beginning, you will completely understand what I mean. This trailer will generate nothing but love from the fans because of these points alone. at least from a true Shenmue fan I hope.

But these are my opinions only. Whatever could be released next month and everyone hates it. That's completely possible, but as I've said from the start all I could do is assume a lot of Shenmue fans are like me and really know and love this series. All I could to is just try and reassure you all that this game is going to impress. For all I know E3 could happen all over, and they pull out of PSX last minute, but I very much doubt that. What we seen could have been released as we seen it! But Yu said he wasn't happy with some aspects. just one more month to go so please, be patient for a little while longer, and you will have buckets of info to micro analyse.

Ahhhh, so the video you saw was maybe like a very rough cut of a re-reveal trailer? Am I getting that right?
