Backer exclusive jacket for Ryo looks amazing. Who's going to switch to it ?

[GhostTrick]

Felt like it deserved its own thread to appreciate that greatness + a poll to vote.
So, who's going to switch ? :")

 

[Kyo_JP]

I think that during my first playthrough I will keep the original look and any potential ingame change, but in my second play on a higher difficulty/trophy hunt I will use it for sure. It is super dope

 

[spud1897]

I'll certainly give it a go. Maybe switch between them.

Looks class

 

[Peter]

I never, ever thought I would say this, but yes, I am considering changing it!

 

[orient]

Will definitely give it a shot for a bit, even if I end up back with the original. It looks great.

 

[hyo_razuki]

I also can't shake the feeling they didn't get the original jacket's color right in S3, so I might just switch to this one which looks great.

 

[Vivi-gamer]

Nah, I'm more hyped for the New Martial Arts Attire:

Still working on my drawing - Ordered some more pens as I wore some outs

 

[BruceWayne911]

This new jacket is straight fire, I will hopefully be using this permanently till I fight Lan Di. I'll use the original for that fight.

 

[shibeouya]

That jacket looks really good to be honest - I'll still probably stick to the original one by pure nostalgia, but might try it every now and then.

I'm getting the jacket...but it will remain in my sealed $ 300 copy.

For playing, I'll be using the $ 80 phone card version for PC.

 

[Suzuki Yu]

i am really surprised to say this but yes i am going for this amazing new outfit as my primary! never thought i would do such thing! it's this good.

I'm hoping its delivered as a code via fangamer so I can keep my kickstarter copy sealed.

 

[Yokosuka]

The dark one is absolutely neat but second playthrough only. The classic jacket is too legendary to switch.

 

[reminisce]

If the OG leather jacket still looks too light and washed out, may have to switch...

 

[hyo_razuki]

That's what I was thinking. It doesn't look right, does it? It is too light. While I will stick to the OG jacket on my first playthrough for consistency and also the legendary status Ryo's brown tiger jacket has, this will probably be my go-to jacket for most subsequent playthroughs. It just looks fabulous and will also be a great reminder of how we as a fan community brought Shenmue back to life.

Yup, don’t know who’s designing Ryo Hazuki, he definitely still needs an upgrade to be on par with the quality of others like Lan Di. At least there’s another option of jacket though, just in case...

 

[BruceWayne911]

I just changed my mind the brown Ryo jacket is no more. I'll be using the black one permanently. The more I look at it the more I love it. It also matches better. Please don't stone me???

 

[Oregon Pacifist]

I’m switching to the black jacket as soon as the game lets me!

 

[Taarabt]

I did not contribute enough but could not justify $75 for a change in skin great as it does look!

 

[FRASIER]

I really don't like it. He looks like an extra from GREASE.

I think this is the part of the "50% new ideas", that I don't like. I'd like the option to maybe have no jacket, or to be able to change his tee etc. This is just not in keeping with the series, where would he have even got that jacket from in the Shenmue world?
