Is there any way we can officially contact SEGA and ask if they have plans for Shenmue in the near future? At least let's get confirmation from them that the series is not part of their plans for the moment.
My point is that if they are planning something, they won't say anything. But if the game is not part of their plans, why should they hide it from the fans? :) It will get worse and worse if they keep quiet.
I'm starting to hate them more and more. Even though I like some of their new games, I don't want to play them anymore. Just because of what's going on with Shenmue. If they are more transparent about it, confirming to fans that they have no plans, but are open to third-party offers, that will be received much better than silence. After all, business is business, they don't have to believe in Shenmue's success. However, being the owner of the license and not saying anything about the future.... it's not alright. I think we need some kind of statement from them. :)
