Yeah, the main reason star citizen got so much after the kickstarter was because they hooked people on pre ordering so many fancy ships

You, I like.Obvious choises.

Galaxy Force II:
What did he said?
he mentioned 1988 in regards to an arcade. i assume he meant 1988 releases.
that could give a hint towards the game having a time jump at some point.
it's just a little theory though. we know the game starts almost immediately after where shenmue II ends.
I think it'll be great, the lack of more natural free movements/interaction in S1&2 is something that feels pretty outdated today. If Ryo randomly jumps like a lunatic it'll be the player's fault anyway.
BTW, that Niconico interview was awesome.

Don't make me cry, Yu.
i think the jumping will probably be context sensitive or set in areas outside the main village/town/city areas. y'know, there's a story of yu suzuki checking out assassin's creed at the tokyo game show many many years ago now...I think it'll be great, the lack of more natural free movements/interaction in S1&2 is something that feels pretty outdated today.

I have been looking at the numbers this past few minutes. It's strange that the number of pledges remain the same (53555 for a while now), but the amount pledged keeps on jumping around (it goes lower, and then it goes a bit higher, then it goes lower again, etc.) The amount of higher tiers might be getting really confusing for some.
Just an interesting observation.

Yes ! Yes !
Nomura said the same thing, he was in the backstage and his hands start to shake when he heard the cheering for the FFVII announcement. It's great to see how emotional it has been for these directors, you know they care as much as we fans.
Of course these people get emotional. Especially over something like shenmue. That is yu suzuki's magnum opus. The amount of insane work yu suzuki has put into his career to reach that moment. You put a ton of yourself into game development. When it goes right, it can be an emotionally rewarding experience not unlike winning a championship after a life time of work in sports. Its a very real, very honest human response.

Yeah, they really need to do some more mass market stuff to get new backers.
Obviously huge fans were going to make up a lot of the money with high pledges, but they need to supplement that by appealing to people and assuming they don't know what Shenmue is.

Ueda also felt amazing according to a interview he made with TLG reception.
Meanwhile, Kojima is crying in what was formely Kojima Productions.

I wasn't a huge fan of the context-sensitive climbing onto warehouses in Shenmue 1, but I get why they did it that way considering you didn't need to jump anywhere else. From the Tak Hirai interview prototype video it shows them experimenting with a free-form jumping down streams and rocks. I trust Yu will make it feel and look pretty natural. I think it's a natural step to take in making Ryo's interactions and controlling more realistic, especially in a game heavily driven by realism. I wonder if climbing mountains will be like in Phantom Pain, which I think is great.

Onto the last part of Gametrailers Shenmue II playthrough. I wonder if I can get through all 6 and a half hours before the end of the Kickstarter?

Oooh, I hope Sega will be accommodating with this stuff. According to Wikipedia, Yu Suzuki was less involved with Super Hang-On and Turbo Outrun, but I'd love to see those happen. And After Burner II. And Power Drift, which I'd never heard of before now.
A short 16-bit fake retro arcade forklifting game sounds like a great idea. And they could possibly make that available separately before Shenmue 3 as a marketing thing or whatnot.
Having thought about this for several more seconds, a Shenmue game jam competition for games to be included as fake '88 arcade games sounds like a fantastic idea. Is it?
that phantom pain example is pretty good. the gz/tpp controls are really fluid and give you a lot of room to manoeuvre but they also look very realistic and are grounded in a sort of semi-reality rather than outright game logic. it's a good benchmark to try and reach for sure.I wasn't a huge fan of the context-sensitive climbing onto warehouses in Shenmue 1, but I get why they did it that way considering you didn't need to jump anywhere else.

All the tears at the end of it.
oh god yeah! i didn't expect them to be emotional over it, but they just kinda sat there in sombre silence as the final parts played out. really puts a full stop on how amazing that ending is. i forgot how ominous it is too with
all the talk of bad feelings and how no birds are in the sky
something great or something really dark

I somehow doubt we'll see it, or that the game will release in 2017. 2 years is not a lot of time.

MEGA IDEA -
Suzuki san, if you want to make the world blow up, please include a Shenmue version of this game as part of an arcade "timed event" and game feature:
SEGA SUPER CIRCUIT
SEGA SUPER CIRCUIT Videos -

Now, this game should be an event like what was done for the Duck Race and fighting tournaments in Shenmue II. You have to make sure you attend the tournament on certain days at specific times in order to progress all the way to the finals. The catch is this element can affect the story in some shape or form and you can also earn fighting scrolls and something incredibly special that can affect your relationship with Shenhua and the branch progression pathway of the game.
Now, something like this also give you the opportunity to incorporate mechanics you've already created in many of your games such as Outrun 2 and the track design world can become incredibly imaginative. This is because this game allows the dev team to use the “in-game world" as the graphics, they won’t be restricted ot the SEGA Y board graphics as used in games like Power Drift (opportunity to do something wonderful and glorious together with neon lights, the works!) So imagine something like this in miniaturised form, together with lots of spectators peering over the side cheering, including Ryo’s friends. To go crazier, the atmosphere and style could the same as Sega Race TV, a game that never came home on consoles:

Attract Sequence - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O30fESdrZSo
Gameplay - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SRUxHE1r9U
When it is not your turn to participate in the tournament, you can, just like in the videos shown above, watch an on-going race on the side-lines along with the crowds of people that you can also interact with. Heck, there will be a point that even Shenhua would participate and you have to cheer her on and give advice. Also, when you are not participating, you can have the opportunity to purchase your own SEGA SUPER CIRCUIT vehicle and you have to keep racing outside the tournament to win special arcade credits/coins (soft-currency). When you win the special arcade credits/coins, you can go and purchase parts for the car from the local electronic store and do the usual maintenance due to wear & tear. You can also leave your vehicle at the store for servicing & maintenance, which you can pick up in a few hours or days depending on the damage. When you have purchased a car part, you can install them yourself or get it done at the store which cost more money.
To make it everything more involving, you can have a local arcade bullies that attempts, and succeeds, to destroy your vehicle as they are desperate to win to win the tournament. Of course, when the tournament is finished, you can still play in SEGA SUPER CIRCUIT at any time and participate in small tournaments here and there (even play multiplayer if budget allows it or you can provide as DLC), but you will no longer have your own car because Ryo has no need for it, and the outcome of your winnings will not affect the story (i.e. it will be like any other arcade game but you can still get winnings here and there). Your racing times will still be included on the local arcade racing board that will get smashed by local players.
If done well together with different tracks that is located on different floors in the game centre like Club SEGA (there are awesome arcade venues in China too), it will make everything feel like a mega hyper land of golden age gaming, and gives the arcade centre a more purpose within the game. An in-game commentator (if budget allows for it) together with support from Ryo's friends, Shenhua, and the screaming of crowds of people that increases at the height of the tournament must also be included for sound is incredibly important.
For those who are in doubt about SEGA SUPER CIRCUIT, it is a multiplayer game created in 1987 and it used Outrun cabinet as the seats. The vehicles got cameras inside them which are displayed on the actual arcade cabinets.

Official website looks pretty slick. http://shenmue.link/us-en/
I see it's in the OP, but I didn't know they had it up until just now.

yeah. nobody seemed to really look at it after the first few days. most of the information is on the KS anyway. that coming soon image underneath the reveal trailer is fairly new though. fingers crossed we get that new footage tomorrow or tuesday!
i wish they would stop using that shitty logo with the wrong font haha

Wow this is amazing,i never seen this before. Good idea for minigame and think this works good online with other people.
Yup. She will become addicted until something happens such as arcade bullies. Ryo will happily step in to keep her on a straight path.
