Finally the forum is working and I have time to reply...
About the trailer, I have been a little bit disappointed but I think the trailer is fine. Here are my Pros and Cons:
Pros:
- The game will really feel like Shenmue.
- The story seems to keep it up well with where it ends. Still intriguing.
- Landi look awesome!
- The landscape are magnificent.
- Ryo and Shenhua needs a bit of improvement but if it remains the same I would still be happy.
Cons:
- No real gameplay in this trailer.
- This trailer seems to be a part of another trailer (I think I also read this in someone's post).
- Characters seems to be a little stiff sometimes.
Considering this is a kickstarter game, I am happy with the development. Yes, it's not perfect and it won't be. But I remember when I gave a lot of money to the kickstarter: All I wanted is a game, to know what would happen in the third game. No matter what was the quality.
To finish this post, I would like to attract your attention on something. In the trailer, the events seems to be in a chronological order.
At a certain moment, we see this conversation:
An old person (probably a lady because of her voice) says to Ryo that "it's ancient history". For now, this kind of answer can lead to a lot of speculations.
This lady is old and we know that Ryo's dad had been there before. Is it possible she knows Iwao? Also, so far, we don't really know about Iwao whereabouts in China. Is it possible that Iwao had a relationship with this lady? What about Ryo's mom? If I remember the story properly we don't know much about her...
So many questions who needs to be answered!!!!
