I thought that when it moved, moved it straight into Christmas\end of year blockbuster territory. When it's taken so long making people wait is an easy option. Surely the money's running out.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
I wouldn't think they'd have to worry about clashing with blockbuster games as it's such a niche title.
Hard to imagine many sales beyond the Kickstarter.
I wonder if they will produce anything to get people caught up on the story. I feel like I'd have to atleast boot up the last disc of S2. Or atleast watch something on youtube.
In other news they added Shenmue to Sega Heroes...

Disgusting. Glad I went for the PS4 version.
Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
I don’t quite understand the hate Epic Store gets. It sucks it’s another store front to keep updated but they offer good games at decent prices and they give more money back to the developer. Plus, more competition equals cheaper prices for all. I would hate a situation that’s developed on the consoles where there’s only one store front, you have to pray for a sale to get a decent price on games.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
Didn't you read the PR? Playing games with a Steam launcher is not as enjoyable as using the Epic Store. Sheesh.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
I think the problem people have with Epic is the extremely basic features the store/launcher has. Also their weird stance on pricing/sales, which they've had to back pedal on recently.
There are also some people that don't like the association Epic has with tencent.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
People also getting noses out of joint over games promoting themselves on Steam, benefiting from the buzz of the Steam community, then dropping EGS exclusivity late in the piece. In this instance many of Shenmue 3's Kickstarter backers expressing disdain over having their choice of platform taken away despite their financial stake in the game.
It doesn't bother me whether games reside in my steamapps, GOG or Epic Store directories. They're all PC games to me. And if for example Remedy are further sustained by Epic Store exclusivity deals then it's a good thing in my view. That said, if a game I want is available on all stores at a similar price, Epic Store in its current state would be the last place I'd go.

The more stores the less likely you would lose your entire library if one went bust or shut down. But then more stores could also cause that to happen!
Sounds like it's cool to hate steam now. Microsoft are probably looking at all these news stores and wondering 'Why didn't they like me?'

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
Cool to hate Steam again you mean. 2004 no one wanted their games online 24/7 but Half-Life 2 forced that. Now everyone wants their PC frames only on Steam. Make up ya minds ya spoilt little cunts.
Generation snowflake. Their choice of platform has not been taken away. Fucken kids man. Wah wah I wanted to use Steam icons and have all my Steam friends see what game I am playing.Peppermint Lounge wrote:People also getting noses out of joint over games promoting themselves on Steam, benefiting from the buzz of the Steam community, then dropping EGS exclusivity late in the piece.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
As a very casual PC gamer, I wouldn't want to install yet another launcher just for one game. Particularly one with strong links to Tencent.
There's the bait and switch element here also. People invested under the understanding it would be on Steam. Now it's not. Seems easy to me to understand why people aren't happy about this.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
I looked back at my Kickstarter emails. The project started in mid 2015. The first mention of Steam was mid 2018. So no-one invested thinking it was going to be on Steam. I expected a DVD based on the wording which was "A physical copy of Shenmue 3 in an exlusive, backer-only case (PC only)." Expected delivery date Dec 2017, LOL.

It was a pre-order timed exclusive to Steam until June 10th.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
Ok. I never really took much interest in what the delivery was. I was just happy to help make it happen, PC or whatever. Back then Epic didn't even exist.
As soon as I knew I could PS4 version, I took no care at all about the PC version.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
I don't know how anyone can actually post at that place and still have an active account.
I'm actually pretty annoyed about this news. I'm all for all of my games being digital, but Shenmue is possibly the only game where I wanted a physical version. I have Shenmue 1 and 2, I need to complete the collection. I would have chosen the PS4 version had I known about this (despite not owning the console). I'm pretty sure I'm even on record in this thread for encouraging someone to make sure they get a physical version because one day this will cost nothing digitally.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
You'll still get a physical copy (provided you backed it), it just has a download code inside. That's what I'm assuming anyway, as it's the norm for PC games these days.
God help us if that's where we have ended up.
I personally couldn't give a shit about which store it's on. They're all just so entitled these days, surprised they're even the type to buy Shenmue.
Wow just went there for the first time since the split. What a toxic place. All they have to do is make a mod post basically saying "don't argue" then anytime a dissenting opinion comes up they can just shout "he didn't read the mod post!" and it's a justified ban -_-t0mby wrote:Haha, I just got a 3 day ban from Etcera for saying people whinged about Steam in 2004 and Origin in 2011, people would move on from this in time

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
Saw some gameplay footage from E3, wow it looks bad. It's shenmue alright.
I understand why the publisher took that Epic money. This game is going to bomb and they already got their money from hardcore fans, they had to get money from somewhere else.

I've popped my head in there and smh in disbelief a couple of times this E3. Probably the last time I visited there was last E3.

No, no, physical copy OF THE GAME. I thought that's what I paid for. Not a box with a piece of paper inside.

Re: SHENMUE III IS REAL OHFUCKOHFUCKOHFUCK SAILORS!!
Assuming the PS4 copy isn't a code in a box too, or at most just a launcher that requires an immediate "update".
But yeah, I expected and prefer a DVD copy that I can still use when the Epic store is dead.
