Have you read the emails that you’ve received from Fangamer and YS Net? If you did you would realise the following:
1. The rest of your CE is coming! Fangamer confirmed multiple times that they were sending out the games first so that gamers could get started with the game on release date. So don’t worry you will still be getting your ‘chunkified’ box set.
2. The Epic Game Store deal has already been explained. EGS has pre-bought something like 250,000 copies of the game. Would I have preferred that it was on Steam? Yes. But during the Kickstarter, Steam was never mentioned.
3. Deep Silver was a publisher that was interested in Shenmue 3, I’m pretty sure YS Net didn’t have hundreds of companies knocking at their door.
As a side note, the fact that you are advising the company break legal contracts in my opinion is silly. That is a sure fire way to ensure that YS Net would never release another game in the future. Which companies would ever deal with them knowing they will break a contract? Plus, it is due to the investment that EGS and Deep Silver gave that we now have a more fully fleshed out game. If we only had the Kickstarter budget it would have been a very different experience.
4. I actually agree with you about a true PC physical release. This was promised during the Kickstarter and should have been honoured.
5. In regards to backer content, make sure the DLC has downloaded on your PS4, then close the game, restart it and enter the 5 digit backer code. It should now work.
