are the new pledges almost gone?

look at that, put stuff people want and there it goes, more stuff please

and they need to hurry up with the ps4 physical and paypal
 
Yu just dropped some pretty big spoilers in the stream. He said that The game encompasses the
4 big bosses
. Don't think this was discussed/known before.
 
5k dollars were just pulled away from the KS. Not sure if this is as beneficial as people think

Honestly, i'm pissed off. Such a huge project with so many hopes into it and this is the guy who's gonna be the face of the KS ? For fuck's sake man, get a grip
Yes because a KS never had troll pledges EVER.

Give a 10m stretch goal to have him fired and it would be filled in no time

May just be people moving their pledges around

Let's see what it looks like in a few hours
 
quoting from the other thread

ok what i got from this
- They are seriously thinking about getting us a physical PS4 release and tell us just to be patient.
- Paypal is being considered, will probably be implemented later
- You get to take on the 4 Chiyoumen bosses
- Skill Tree System is for building up martial arts abilities (linked to scrolls).
- Character Perspective System lets you play as Shenhua and Ren in Baisha.
- Shenmue 3 wont finish the story, which i'm actually happy with, i dont want Yu to rush this even if we are put on a cliffhanger for another 14 years,
really hoping Shenmue 3 is successfull

is there any other stuff i'm missing
even though the stream was a total ridiculous mess, they actually revealed some interesting and exciting information about the game

also, just saying this in big letters so people understand and don't start to panic

AWESOME JAPAN ARE ONLY RUNNING THE KICKSTARTER AND ARE NOT INVOLVED IN DEVELOPMENT, YOUR MONEY IS SAFE WITH YU AND YS.NET
 
EDIT: Actually i'm gonna refrain of commenting under the heat, sorry guys for the outburst. Still mad about right dude tho

Just to let you know in the future, the total will drop when somebody is changing their tier pledge and then go back up if they upped their pledge. That is to say the system will subtract their original pledge and THEN add their new pledge, with a delay between the actions, rather than just add the difference.
 
So since the announcement we've had:

The shoddy Kickstarter page
The concern trolling
The AMA which spawned the $10 million confusion
Sony funding controversies
Now this Twitch horrorshow

I guess biased journalists, fake troll pledges, no PS4 physical copies and the ugly Ryo face can all be sprinkled in there too.

This has been a rough ride -_-

It's pretty concerning that PS4 copies and Paypal options still carry a 'we're looking into it' now we now it's the Awesome Japan guys looking into it (lol) and the fact we have only 3 weeks to go...
 
Well as I posted in the other thread the stream resulted in a significant boost in funding and injected some energy in to the campaign after it had stalled.

The new tiers resulted in the following:

Code:
VINTAGE GRAB BAG 1K TIER - 25 BACKERS
VINTAGE GRAB BAG 2K TIER - 5 BACKERS
VINTAGE GRAB BAG 5K TIER - 2 BACKERS

FUNDING TOTAL: 45K

So a funding boost of 45K in the space of an hour just from the addition of new tiers. Some people were just upping their pledges though so the actual boost in funding is in the 35K range. To put this in perspective Shenmue 3 is now hitting around 25K per day on average. Today's funding will be closer to 60K because of the stream and new tiers.

So a significant and positive boost. They add that physical PS4 version and pledges will sky rocket.
 
still needs a couple more pledges, a 750 would be a nice soft spot, maybe a 2500 or 4000, or maybe other pledges after 5000, and hope they have more things planned to spread the word on this, and they better develop more of that streaming tech, the sound being super low was really bad
