Video Game General 6.5: Now with more surprise mechanics

Also wanted to throw this out there, Keighley has no control or say in the nominations on TGA

He and someone else who was part of ‘the powers that be’ had to come out and clarify this.

Looking on twitter he’s had to fend off people in repeatedly saying this to anyone who comes at him regarding any of the nominations, not just DS.

And people still gave him money? That’s wild. So what happen if the game bombs? He’s going to kickstart Shenmue 4?

Shenmue 4: in 2036!

Get a free colonoscopy when you pre-order.

Ryo: Do you know where I can find some prunes?
Ryo: I see.

Fans of franchise should have know the deal, Shenmue was always intended to have several chapters. This has always been made clear. Not sure why people thought part 3 was the end. Did people want the third game to be the last season of Game of Thrones.

Everybody knew Suzuki’s original plan for Shenmue was like 5 or 6 games, so this was only a third chapter in an ongoing story. Might’ve been slightly condensed due to a possibility that Shenmue 4 might not happen

I feel like the whole 20 year gap between games is a good enough excuse to wrap it up, and I thought the first two were decent games.

Mashing the fuck out of X right now

Not a fan of the guy but its the truth. Each publication submits their own nominations for each category. He has no control over it. It still doesn’t look good though. You are supposed to avoid even the appearance of impropriety.

Yes. Shenmue fans, myself included wanted more and we where willing to risk the possibility of another cliff hanger ending at the shot to have more.

Wait is it just the OG Final Fight? Does Capcom not have the code for Final Fight 2 or 3.

It’s fan made. It isn’t an official mod.

What the fuck is a gender neutral controller?

Are we just making shit up out of thin air now?

Yes they are.
Companies still seem to have their heads in their ass thinking that twatter engagement translates into what people actually want.
So they think that people actually care about this woke shit.
It is why you see the enterteinment industry and the tech industry doubling down on that shit.
Since many people who take decisions use social media analitycs as the only source of their info.

It is why they always look baffled when these kind of pandering doesnt work.
