  1. in my honest opinion …. it looks awful.

    But who am i to say that ? i do know it says “all game scenes under development” but something tells me you are not going to get something much better than what you are seeing.

    1. Yes it does look awful…people are creating brutal and awesome stuff in unreal4 with no budget at all or very small budget…so yeah this is “under development” piece of sh…

      1. All i need is the trird installment to the Shenmue series so i can complete the story. I don’t give a damn how bad the graphics “may” be.

        Hell, I’ll buy it even if it has Dreamcast-low graphics in 2015.
        all the graphic-whores can move on to other games.

        1. You DO remember that the last 2 shenmue games are much much higher than $5m right?

          You must divide the “qq” from “if we reach this, we do that”.
          And untill according to this list https://www.kickstarter.com/discover/advanced?category_id=35&sort=most_funded

          the final products of the high funded games do NOT suck.

          Again Shenmue is not a game the ppl w8ing for it will care about graphics, why is that hard for you to understand it. If it has better graphics than the 2 last games it’s OK, if it does not reach the potential of the almighty UE4 *surprise-surprise* it’s still ok and *wow* playable and enjoyable.

          PS: It’s a good thing you didn’t comment on the Bloodstained Kickstarter demo showcase(which is also on UE4). You know what there is NO demo to see at all. I guess you can rage free now or just learn how to kickstart properly.

    1. Dream on…Did you see any “heavy mods” for unreal4 / 3 powered games??
      edit: sry mate, i was fast reading your comment
      “Modders with time, will do it better lol”
      LOOOOL hehehe , 😉

      I Totally agree with you, there are modders and artists creating better, brutal & awesome stuff in U4 with very very small personal budget or no budget at all!

  2. what the heck with this 10 ears old like shity graphic and character models? what are they doing with all the money the got?

  3. for $5M “concept preview” it looks awful…
    “graphic-wh0re” looool….then why the devs are using unreal4???
    and create concept that looks like early UDK unreal3, that my friend is a bad showcase for future backers…. they did not have enough time to prepare themself for better U4 concept demo for kickstarter?? thats just sad……..Now they are QQing they need $10M, Well, if they have put more effort in showcase, maybe they would get more money…
    I think it is just another easy moneygrab for the developers based on previous games “fanbase”….
    Mark my words final product will suck…

  4. They just put together a quick-and-dirty trailer to create hype, that’s all. The game’s barely into the development. At least, when they release the game with better graphics, nobody will scream “downgrade-ation”.
