Support NeoGAF

[Assanova]

Just doubled my pledge to get the PS4 physical copy.

 

[DieAntwoord]

I'm so pissed I waited over years for this and now I can't even contribute because I was laid off when this started. Granted I'm working again but not paid till Monday. Hopefully there's a paypal campaign where I can contribute still.

 

[Crowza]

I know about them, sadly, and mine is kind of maxed out..

I'll PayPal you $20. Anybody else here in for another $20 so Dave can up his pledge?

 

[Redx508]

does demul run it better than nulldc?

 

[Elfforkusu]

Welp, the building they're doing the stream in lost power. Maybe we can't blame Awesome Japan this time.

honestly, paypal is one of the announcements i was really counting on from the stream tonight

 

[Gentleman Jack]

K let's do this

 

[truth411]

Reading this thread, I just can't get the south park episode about kickstarter out of my head lol.

 

[FuturusX]

Mine said the same about going to 500 from 300 as I was trying to get my donation in the first night. We're doing ok, you and me.

Awesome!!! Never let her go!

 

[M.Steiner]

I've never played any Shenmue games before, but decided to support it at 80 bucks.

Good people!

 

[ckohler]

I'm now a backer. Opted for the $29 tier as I prefer digital over physical.

 

[zeshakag]

Exactly 2 hours left! Gogogogo

 

[Danlord]

Final Hour!

Can you do 20 for me?

I was in the exact same boat. Got laid off a week before it was announced, but I got a better new job, but won't be paid until next week. Lucky enough for me, I had plenty of empty credit cards to last me until then.

You're a bit off there

Wut?

 

[Spaghetti]

does demul run it better than nulldc?

hm... less graphical glitches in my experience but very demanding on your system. though a new beta version did just come out, haven't tried it personally.

[Spaghetti]

Wut?

yeah it ends in two hours. currently 00:53 BST now.

 

[DEATH_INC]

does demul run it better than nulldc?

Demul is a lot more accurate with DC emulation but more system intensive. Last time I tried nulldc the arcade games in Shenmue didn't work and Ryo had semi transparent hair on the back of his head. Everything works flawlessly in Demul but its a pain to set up right.

 

[nny]

Wut?

...is BST bullshit time?

 

[M.Steiner]

You're a bit off there

Ends at 2:51 AM BST which is in 2hrs.

You are awesome!

Wut?

Whoa, I must be takin crazy pills. This is what I see.

 

[danwarb]

Wut?

It's just under 2 hours. KS page doesn't do minutes apparently.

 

[Danlord]

Oh, it just updated for me now;

 

[SerTapTap]

Fine whatever I wasn't going to back any more kickstarters but I bucked up for $29 assuming the final game will be more expensive. I'll buy physical but at release for PS4.

 

[Snaku]

I'll be watching Ant-man when the campaign comes to a close, but I'm so ecstatic that Yu was able to raise so much and I'm proud of each and every contributor. I'll be honored to have my name scroll through the credits with my Shenbros.

 

[Pyroclastic]

I just realised you can only get the mp3 soundtrack included if you go for the $160 option.

kinda nuts

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Ah I see, I'm unaccustomed to KS countdowns. I'm used to other timers that round up instead of down.

 

[Crowza]

Can you do 20 for me?

Check your PMs.

 

[Putyouinmyoven]

I can't believe it got past 6 million! This is AWESOME. I'm super happy for all you guys that had to wait 14 years for this - hopefully this means a fantastic game all around

Now if only that stream would start.

 

[Upsidedown Fuji]

I hope there's good buzz around the production of this game well up to release day. Everyone needs to know this game is coming.

 

[goldenpp72]

I just made my pledge go from 80 to 310.. Do I get my name in the credits now?

 

[Crowza]

Yep!

 

[Moofers]

Is the stream not on yet? Twitch says the channel is offline?

 

[AlteredBeast]

Come on Shenmue!! 2 hours left, gotta get to Ragdoll!

 

[Gentleman Jack]

I just realised you can only get the mp3 soundtrack included if you go for the $160 option.

kinda nuts

Some of the price jumps are straight up absurd. The difference between the $300 and $500 tier is 3 small plastic figurines.

It did start.

There was an echo.

They fixed the echo.

It was kinda interesting. Just Yu Suzuki talking shop, basically, with a random interviewer dude (Japanese) and two non-AJ translators. Went over some of the pre-Shenmue gaming projects of his, and then

the stream died.

 

[SerTapTap]

Is this the first Kickstarter that's needed an "OT2" btw?

 

[celsowmbr]

minutes to go

If Kickstarter tiers had fair market value, they wouldn't be able to fund their projects.

 

[danwarb]

If you selected the $300 reward yep.

 

[copelandmaster]

I must be out of my mind, I've never played Shenmue before. I'm not even planning to open my physical copy

Oh well, making dreams come true is important I guess. If I'm gonna throw money into it, I want my name in there

 

[goldenpp72]

If you selected the $300 reward yep.

Yeah I selected 300 then it added shipping of 10 bucks. That's normal right? I asked the girlfriend what she thought and she said go for the 300 lol.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Oh, it just updated for me now;

Over $12k in the last six minutes. It won't hit $6.5m in all likelihood, but that is an insane pace to finish at.

 

[John Dunbar]

the last two hours.

this is where we make our stand.

godspeed, gentlemen.

That's the spirit!

 

[Caboose]

Never played Shenmue before, but I've always been interested. Just pledged 60 bucks for PS4 version I had to be a part of gaming history mang!
