That was basically everyone's reaction that was a fan of the series. As someone who has waited for the game since the original series. This is literally a video game dream come true. I mean I finished Shenmue II (for the first time) when I was 11. I'm going to be 25 in a few months and I've been eagerly waiting for this day to happen. Finally!
This is the same as one of my coworkers. I told him about the announcement this morning and he was losing his mind. He sounded like a hopeless soul who finally found what he was looking for as he kept saying "14 years, I've been waiting 14 years." Needless to say he immediately went to the kickstarter page and backed it.
I can only imagine. First thing I did was see the reaction in the Shenmue Dojo. I love it when other fanbases get pleasant surprises like this. Hopefully it all works out.
Can you enlighten me about what was so good about that game? I only remember watching someone play it for an hour and it seemed like the most boring thing ever. It looked like a real life simulator. The guy just wandered around this town bumping into people and then went to a real job driving a forklift around. To this day I wouldn't even know what genre to put it in.
