Damn... That was tough to watch, still skipped to 43:18 though as I may pick this up at some point, but not today!

Sega needs to jump onto the DRM-free train.

Wow, really didn't expect to see this happening, but it's a nice surprise.


EDIT: I think the promo page could use some work. At least to me it's showing six different products, which can all be bought at the same time.

The problem is, there are three DLCs which are also in a season pass. There is also a deluxe edition which contains the season pass. So if you buy everything from that promo page, you end up paying three times for the same DLC!!!
Not the best possible design, probably.

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Hopefully this means more SEGA games here in the future.

A decent game. Artificially stretched because they force you to raise money before progressing in a few spots. As a shenmue fan who backed this day 1...it was okay.

I thought of this same video but didn't dare to enrage Shenmue/SEGA fans. Be careful if you watch it because there are Heavy Rain spoilers.

How is it that such ordeals like this * happen SO OFTEN on GOG...
* Ordeal of "game-name x+1 got released but game-name x did not". I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not :P
On a serious note, martial arts training starts very often at young age so it's not uncommon for pre-adults and young adults to be highly versed in them.

I hope we get the first two as well.

Great release! I loved the Shenmue I and II on the Dreamcast ^_^

Yeah. I really don't like what the creator pulled, so I feel I should inform people of the issues. That video does a nice job of being honest.
Sega fans are pretty alight. Once you get past the weird surface and dive in, there's some real creative talent and people; probably the same people who have made clunky old games like Phantasy Star into actually playable games.

It's just that Shenmune isn't so much a fandom as it is a mild cult.

Don't I know it, there are so many Sega games I would buy instantly if they were here, but Sega isn't smart enough and apparently doesn't want our money.

i migth remember wrong but i think Yu Suzuki mentoined there was planned 5 games total
to conclude the story
i doubt that the rest is going to happen.
People have become a bit more wary of kickstarters and crowdfunding in general.

This wasn't already released here? Gosh.

They messed it up, nobody will buy it now, knowing it's crap. :P

There was not a single good reasons to believe that this third installment should have been anything but the delivery of a long desired closure of what would have then been a trilogy...

The idea that Shenmue should be a franchise for years to come is simply delusional.

Anyhow, anything aside, is there any reason to play the DLC story wise (to this main game that seems to be largely a filler), or is it just silly minigames?
