Stay strong people. We're not giving up until the fat lady sings. We're almost at the finish line and I'll be damned if we throw in the towel right at the end of a 20 year run.
They messed up massively and need to rectify it asap, and im sure they will in the coming weeks via a refund or ideally the steam keys. Either way, lets get this situation sorted and then move on. Express those emotional wounds, frustrations, anger and then pick yourselves back up for the next round. In the end we always come together when it counts most.
I haven't been active during the day due to work, but most of the those wicked evil comments on the Kickstarter page are most likely from your average joe toxic backer. We also live in the outrage era, so be mindful of that. Actually, the KS comments have always been dog piss, so yeah lol. Any toxic Shenmue fan or regular backer wishing death on the creator needs professional help and probably has much bigger problems in their life than a video game. Again, let me stress, i want those who purchased a steam key to get a steam key or a refund. Let me just make that clear. However, extreme verbal abuse is not how you should conduct yourself.
Either way, we have 3 months left, we can't give up now.
A man is tested in times of hardship, so we got no choice but to keep the fight going.
The shenmue community is fundamentally strong. Something as stupid as this little road bump cannot break us. In fact it weeds out the toxicity that has plagued the community for a while
That Goro lover
@Peter is hustling hard and still pushing forward for Shenmue 3, as seen by the youtube channel, spoiler forum and off camera stuff. Lets follow his example and continue the fight.
Stay strong people. We got this.
