lol people set an amazing precedent, They told sony hey you don't need to put up money for projects we will fund your R&D. lolol
lol just like when they setup a kickstart under a phantom company to fund their failed watch thing.
@tushar172787: 2017 probably
that's a long way from a released game. i think this will take another 4 years...
So it's at 5 million which means you are currrently getting the shit version of the game since he said he needed 10 to do it properly but would do his best with 5.
It's not looking good. Get your wallets out people Sony need your money.
@blueinheaven: No, Ys Net and Neilo need your money.
Lems really are morons.
WTF have Lems got to do with anything? PC, PS4 and Xbox One owner here, dumbass. I pointed out 5 mil gets you the shit version of the game which will no doubt disappoint Sony who paraded the thing on stage at E3 during their own presentation.
I dont' think at this point an extra 500k will make much of a difference.
YsNet has their work cut out for them. They have to make a full fledged 3D aniamted adventure game with a limited budget.
I know i won't get an open world S3, but i just hope it doens't feel like a clunky bitch to play.
and when will the game be released?
Realistically? 2018, maybe 19 if something happens.

Yes Sony giving publicity to a kickstarter means that they themselves are funding the game and lack the money to fully fund it.
Lems are just awful.
About halfway to the real goal.
What a shame.
I didn't contribute mostly because I really didn't enjoy either of the Shenmue games.
Maybe he should just cut his losses and instead of wasting money developing for a console, make the game he wants to on PC?
An excellent scam job. At least we have the silver lining of them not making 10 million, thank gods.
Lems are just awful.
This crap again. It's like having a debate with a 5 year old. Yeah I'm a Lem which is why I have been bigging up Uncharted Collection and Until Dawn on here I am going to buy them and try to make them work in my Xbox. Idiot.

Shenmue is a PC game to..lol
Should be out just in time for the next gen Xbox, can't hardly wait until 2020. :P
Din't i already shoot down this ^^ sad notion.? It took 2 years for Shenmue 2 to arrive hell not even 2 completely,the first Shenmue was something new on a era where sandbox games were hardly known,is 2015 and already there is a precedent that show a sequel will not take as long as the first one.
2018-2019? i think this will be launched for the PS5.
Damn PS haters..lol

You really are a moron. It's gonna be "shit" because of a few extra mini games? gtfo

it's called simple logic :P
Fail. Sony can't even raise money right.
I could have raised more money with neighborhood kids pitching in to clean up dog shit.

He wanted 10 mil to do a proper open world game 5 mil gets you smaller areas read the fucking Kickstarter info before coming on here spouting your drivel.

Dude all you do is sound like a sour grape in every post you make. I'm beginning to think you have someone's steel-toed boot lodged firmly up your ass.
You seriously think another 5 million dollars would make your Assassin's Creed clone? People are fully capable of making quality games without super budgets you know. The game will be great regardless of the final budget.
So SEGA reported the first game on Dreamcast cost $70 million to make (although Suzuki revised it and said it was $47 million) and now they're doing a PS4/PC game on $5 million?
This is going to be fun to watch.
In 14 years or more a lot of things change. At the time Shenmue was cutting edge tech, but now part 3 can be made significantly cheaper (obviously) and it's not like they're trying to make the next Call of Duty. And then we don't know how much money Sony will add to the final product. It's not like they'll need a budget for advertising.
To straighten up some confusion in this thread...
$2 mill assured Shenmue 3 would be made but it would be mostly narrative or movie driven.
$5 mill would make Shenmue 3 on par with what the first two were with an added feature or two.
$10 mill would make Shenmue 3 a full open world game with many new features and expanded battle abilities.
I was hoping for the $5 mill mark and as of yesterday, it made it. I'm glad to be a backer and I eagerly anticipate the release of this title and hope that it will be successful enough to fund a 4th and final Shenmue that completes the story.
So this isn't the final Shenmue?
What about an HD collection to help fund the game?
What about a retail release for PS4?

He's not going to make the game people are expecting for 5 mil it's just not going to happen unless Sony step in and help fund the rest of it. What has AC got to do with anything??? I don't touch AC I hate all the pointless filler content.

Did shenmue 2 cost even half of what the first cost.?
Yeah that is what you should ask how much Shenmue 2 cost.
Lems are just awful.

I'm a Pony even though I'm playing Bravely Default and buying Halo 5, Rare Replay and Gears.
Least I don't spout stupid shit about Sony funds.
@a-new-guardian: Suzuki stated that he did not want to compress the chapters of the story into the third game and would continue with his original vision of 4 to 5 games to flesh out all 11 chapters.
HD versions of the first two games are up to Sega. Suzuki only has rights to create a sequel. No rights to the first two games. There's a petition floating about but I don't believe it will help.
PS4 is getting a physical release at the least via the Kickstarter at the $60 pledge tier. So it would be like preordering 2 years in advance.
@blueinheaven: No, Ys Net and Neilo need your money.

Shit version? I don't think he's the dumb ass in this exchange.
This could have reached 10M if Suzuki have said from the get-go at E3 that he needed at least 5M to help fund the game. That way it would have reached 5M easily in less then one day (instead of the 2M in one day) and the funds would have gradually increased from there to 10M by the deadline..
He fucked up big time only asking for a shitty 2M.

He didn't **** up by going $2 million. Last Shenmue sequel came out 14 years ago. The amount of people that have played Shenmue today is very low. This kickstarter would be doing much worse if it wasn't announced on stage at E3.
Broken Age cost over 6 million. Just keep that in mind.
And part 2 reused levels from the first half.
Kickstarter is a scam. The failure of red ash proves people are finally catching on. If Mighty No. 9 doesn't some how end up better than it looks kickstarter dream projects are dead.

Youre probably right.
But being that this was announced at E3, where millions of people are watching, he could have asked for much more the his initial asking of 2M. he should have asked for 5M and he probably would have got it in the same time spam he got the 2M.
That being said, i think what really hurt this kickstarter was all the news that was saying Sony was to help fund the project.
