Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Just a reminder, Shenmue III producer Cedric Biscay hinted we should watch out for something at the Shibuya Productions Crazy Time at 4:45PM CET, so we're likely to get a little bit more news before the day ends.

It's kinda weird why they're still using it but have the old Shenmue font on stuff like slides during presentations. There's a theory about perhaps something to do with royalty costs, but who knows.

Is it out already?
Choubu will be the urban area. It's supposed to be kind of like a riverside version of Kowloon.

I admit, I love the sort of 'rough' look they are giving the game's textures. I think it fits Shenmue very well.

Game looks great so far.
The people who said it looked like a Dreamcast game have a lot of egg on their face now.

No, those people were just idiots. It was never going to look like a dreamcast game even if it was made 5 years ago on last gen systems.
Yeah. They've done about six months of development with it.

Environments look great. I really want to see how it looks animation wise and some combat would be cool too. E3 surely.

Unbelievable. Looking at those screens invoke some weird feeling that a DC2 did exist at some point in time. It's amazing how they can turn UE's art assets to like like these.

Really excited for all of this obviously. Can't wait for the final product and I'm happy with the progress they seem to be making so far. Looks great.

Liking what I see so far. Great to see they're making good progress.
March 5th is going to be great: wake up to a Shenmue 3 video and end the day with McGregor v Diaz

I can't wait. I am currently playing through Shenmue on the Dreamcast and loving it. That last video posted is impressive. I wonder what the target time frame for release is? I hope the scale of the game is good. I know they have limited funds, but I would really hate to see a really short game due to funds.
December 2017 is the target release date. Yu and Cedric say they're on schedule, and I believe them given how far they've come in 6 months, but there's another 22 months of development and most Kickstarter games tend to slip a little from their release window.
As for scale, a non-linear game like Shenmue is hard to pin down in terms of average hours you would spend playing. I don't think the budget will drastically affect the game in that respect, honestly.
