If I was a game reviewer there is no chance in hell I sign that NDA/Embargo.

Hope not all the hate is going to be with the epic thing and review that in a neutral state.

I can't imagine Shenmue 3 getting (mainstream) rave reviews because it's very niche and plays like a game from 2001. However that's exactly what Shenmue fans want.

Now that there's been a Killer instinct 3 and Shenmue 3 released, the only other video game longshot to be released is half life 3 and maybe mortal kombat vs street fighter or a true sequel to super mario 64

The epic thing is a pain. No doubt about it.
Shenmue III will never be givin' a proper shot because of it.
I guess somethings never change. I will play it eventually, on way or another.

I was a kickstarter backer, wanted to see it continued but that's not all the scummy stuff anyway.

Backers won't be getting the pre-order dlc from retailers which is really lame.

Then you're fucked as a platform.

No review copies, no interviews, no support, blacklisted from all events

Nor just from Shenmue but from every game company

Every other reviewer out there now has an advantage and yet first 2 weeks is where all the money is

You realize this is 2019 not 1999 right?

So like someone who buys a copy at release can make and release a review of the game before a professional reviewer can?
