Just want to know if it's going to be a full on Shenmue or a watered down thing to end the saga.
What are the things they are changing
And if they are going to finish the story in one game.
Merging free and qte..hmm..i sure hope the VF style fighting I still in.
Also, can we buy new clothes for Ryo

Can we have a countdown please for people living under different time zones ???
Also question: Will the game activate on Steam ?

We don't know if it's AM or PM! It's either 3 hours away or 15 hours away.
I'm guessing 3 hours away.
They said they don't have digital distribution figured out yet.
Fine, get Sega to start a Kickstarter for a Dreamcast Remake.Making this a Playstation-exclusive is an affront to Sega fans everywhere!

edit : oh i see it's a joke.
Shenmu/Shenmue II HD Collection, of course.

An app could be as a homebrew game which would easily boot on dc that pulls saves from vmu which could be pulled across to pc.
I think it's most likely at 9:30 AM. My guess because they might have said 21:30 PST if it was at 9:30 PM.
That's what I'm thinking. But do they even use the 24-hour clock in Japan?

6. Will all returning characters be voiced by the same English/Japanese voice actors?
7. How much money do you think will be raised?
8. Were you surprised that 2 million dollars was raised so quickly?
I'm really glad how it went well but I would love to see a proper HD version of Shenmue 1 and 2.
At least on pc.
Shenmue on NullDC already works great but I would love to see a version with japanese and english audio and a lot of extras and other stuff, maybe even a commentary of Yu Suzuki.
People need to be able to play Shenmue on pc.
Otherwise it will be dead again (if it's only on console).
If we want to preserve video games and want to be able to play and own them we need them on pc.

jeez, judging from the "can we have a shenmue + shenmue II HD collection" comments in this thread, the info from the kickstarter stating that is solely SEGA's mandate should be in the start of every single shenmue 3 thread from now on
same with sony not actually publishing the game and only providing some funding

Will we be able to drive a forklift?
He said he desperately wants to find a way to bring the forklift back. However, it might not make much sense because the game takes place primarily in remote villages.
Wait, what was the last good game he made?
Was it Shenmue II?
Oh god, this is going to be a disaster, isn't it?

PC mods it is.
to be fair, he was stuck in a closet in sega for over years and then languished in mobile dev hell
i think he's still got it though
You know he doesn't work for Sega any more...

So umm, who here is actually going to ask all these questions in this thread?
Not a single one of these questions is special.
Reddittors are going to cover them all.

The AMA is going to be littered with Shenmu and Sega questions.Well all my questions better be answered damn it!
I'm going to ask him something completely unrelated.

I've noticed in many interviews with him a lot tends to get lost in translation. It might be wise to keep the questions simple and to the point.

Thanks. I've created a reddit account. I hope Yu-senpai notices me.
I suppose so. I was thinking he might still be in California, but if he's back in Japan, it's one in the morning over there right now.
He definitely wouldn't be doing an AMA at that time.
Yeah, but Japan is sixteen hours ahead of the East Coast and sixteen ahead of the West.
It's not easy to time it. Also, I'm sure he's a very busy man these days.

- Suzuki-san, can you write it so that Ryo marries Xiuying instead of Shenhua? A man of his heroism and good-nature deserves only the best. Thanks.
