The first screenshot appears to still be using billboard cutouts of people as placeholders for models, but I can't tell in the back on the right if that's a model of a woman in a dress or not.

MAGIC Monaco 2018 (24 Feb.): New screenshots & gameplay for Shenmue 3, live demo of Vampyr
- Thread starter Maxime
- Start date
Ryo is finally looking perfect.
Looks like people dumb driveby one-liners were wrong, who would've thought...

I hope so, but what is obvious is that the final game isn't going to be anywhere close as "bad" as some people have continued to suggest. I've got one particular post on this forum bookmarked for a good day in the future. :)
I dont feel like its gonna be a train wreck, but im not expecting something on the level of the previous games.
Got excited for Shenmue 3 gameplay. :( Oh well, looking forward to the details that are coming I guess.
Environments are looking as great as ever, also Ryo's face is looking much improved imo.

Pretty much, but it's expected really. They were a small team considering what they wanted to achieve.
I'm very impressed with the progress shown in these screens released today,. Shenmue 3 is gonna be goooood.
Loving the new screenshots. The environments feel right out of Shenmue. The new Ryo image is probably the best we've sen yet too even if it is weird to see him looking less serious than we're used to.
The only thing Ryu is looking for are sailors...
Shenmue 3 looks good, is it PS exclusive? Or will this come to everything?
More like PS5. How deep in 2019 can they go with the money they have?
wow! amazing improvements!
i am in love with the environments.
all we need right now is to see a brief demo to make sure everything feels right in-motion.
also this could mean that we are going to see a lot more of the game than we initially anticipated out of the event.
mostly they are hired to do the bulk of the work (the less important but many NPCs)

i don't think lakshya was haired to do the main work.

However long Deep Silver's patience lasts I suppose.
But let's not jump the gun to 2019 and PS5 yet, shall we? The game is still scheduled for the second half of this year, with gameplay details coming next month.
Yeah, this. Lakshya was hired when the NPC count was due to expand significantly, so they're likely doing that while the modellers at YSnet focus on the core cast. I think these new models are just a reflection of additional time spent on them, rather than being handed to another team entirely.
The co-producer, publisher, and developer disagree with you.
Let's not get shitty about this. A delay could happen, but the people who are best placed to make a decision say a 2018 release is happening. We're 16 days into the year, let's just see how things pan out.
I really cannot believe how far we have come. Absolutely incredible!
What a giant progress this is
Unfortunately yes it is. That's what one of the options were on the Kickstarter page.
I'm pretty sure it isn't, even though it's supposed to be. They talk about it in interviews as though it's part of the game.
Yeah, that's what I remembered... Thankfully, I chose that option back then :P
It'll probably be released as late DLC for everyone else though.
I'm almost 99% positive it's just going to be a regular feature based on some interviews I read. I remember there was a bit of backlash on the Kickstarter from people who were upset it wasn't a true exclusive.
Hmm, the kickstarter backers will need to get something else then if true.
I'll be fine if Shenmue 3 looks like that on release but if I want to nitpick, both look just a little bit off, but Shenhua just doesn't give me the same vibe she did in Shen 1 and 2, she seems taller and more lady like and equal to Ryo while in those games she looked like a kid compared to him. Wise beyond her years but still a kid. And she was, even if they only had a couple years difference at Ryo's age that's a lot, she'd change a lot in just a couple years too. Not that their relationship couldn't evolve into a romantic one if that's even an intention (it could or couldn't) without issue but yeah.
Thats a big improvement.I really cannot believe how far we have come. Absolutely incredible!
I hope this is the case. I backed at a level that would receive it, but something like that should be available to everyone.
More shenmue 3 is always good news.
Especially since the more times passes , the mor epolished the project becomes. We'll get there one day !! ( take your time )

Current theory is that the international phone card will be part of the base game, but KS backers might get extra conversations and characters.
The only thing that looks off to me is the poses, but I think the models look great.
I think Spaghetti mentioned that Yu Suzuki had some sort of trick he'd use at Sega where he could show people older builds of games that were further along than it appeared at the click of a button, just so he could buy himself more time. Not saying he's doing that here, but y'know.
Considering that we have come from nothing (the big reaction at e3 and the Kickstarter record were all but expected), it's safe to say Shenmue 3 has grown beyond my wildest dreams.
I mean it started with Yu Suzuki by himself, and now look at how polished those models look thanks to new fundings and the Indian studio's help,It's madness.
Now, if only Sega would make the damn remasters...

We're finally close to something but I still have some troubles with it:
- Ryo still doesn't convey his original natural expression. Something looks wrong with proportion as well (too tiny eyes?).
- If you look closely, Shenhua may look like a doll. The "doll effect", the lifeless eyes have been the issue for most of the characters so far.
- No significant progress for the environment but it was predictable.
On the whole, the problem remains the same: it still looks like an Unreal Engine 4 fan-game. At least, judging by these screens.

I like the Shenmue screens. Was hoping the Vampyr gameplay was already up though, really looking forward to that.
Actually, Yu's development style is Agile but the point still stands. The methodology is heavily based in constant cycles of iteration and improvement, which is what we've been seeing and probably will continue to see until the game releases.
Can you show me a game made in UE4 that does not look like a "fan game"? Honest question. I'd like to know what the key distinction is. Keep in mind this is a game set in real life locales and not a fantasy game, so please try to keep it relevant to that setting if you can.
