Though the battle might be endless, I will never give up
you should watch the video on the shenmue kickstart page

he talks about deciding to do kickstarter, and then just starts talking about "ability scrolls" for a while, you dont need to practice moves any more you just unlock them. why does he talk about this. then they show a conversation that i guess is supposed to be taking place in game. and then they talk about stretch goal villages

and like thats it

yeah, it's a pretty weird video, but given everything, I suppose this is still early works. Most gaming Kickstarters already have funding and just need a boost, so if they are saying "This game isn't getting amde if we don't get backed," I'm guessing they are pretty much starting from scratch.

that said, I will back the gently caress out of this game. but not too much because I can't afford that sweet loving jacket.

if you don't think this is the most perfect way to introduce shenmue 3 into the world then you can eat my entire rear end

If it weren't one of the most anticipated sequels ever that kickstarter video would probably have gotten them $5 in sympathy cash

instead they're two thirds of the way to $2mil and it hasn't been six hours yet

i unironically hope that shenmue 3 takes zero lessons from open world game design past whatever year Morrowind came out.

CORRECT ANSWER
YUO ARE SMART
Why is this a Kickstarter? And announced during Sony's event? And not coming to any other console? Or listed as a possibility or stretch goal? Some fishy deal between Sony and Ys Net...

It's coming to PC so who cares about console exclusivity.
