Is it not a galgame?

Chapter 136 40. What?Guyuan Chunqiu wants to retire? !
When Qing Zhiyuan passed by, he found that Mikami was arguing with the programmers.

After stopping and listening for a while, he probably figured out what was going on.

It turned out that Shinji Mikami had very high requirements for the quality of the game, and the control was extremely strict. Then, in the process of making the game, he couldn't always achieve the effect he wanted, so everyone quarreled.

Qing Zhiyuan didn't think there was any problem with this kind of argument.

Although everyone was blushing, it was all for the good of the project itself.

A benign debate is completely different from a personal attack. Everyone bargains from their own standpoint and makes a judgment after listening to the other party.

Shinji Mikami was silent, crossed his arms and thought for a long time, and suddenly said, "Could it be because the darkness restricts us?"

"what?"

Everyone was confused.

"I mean, the production of Diablo has been an unprecedented success, so we want to see if we can expand to other types of games on this basis.

The witcher itself should be more action-oriented. I have actually simulated it many times in my brain, and I don't think there is a big problem.

But when I actually saw it, I realized that the protagonist's movements were not as brilliant as I imagined when viewed from a bird's-eye view. "

Shinji Mikami said, "However, if the camera is zoomed in and zoomed out, more details may be shown, but in this way, high requirements and challenges are put forward for the character model.

That's why I was thinking, would three-dimensional characters be more suitable for us? "

hiss...

Qing Zhiyuan gasped from the side.

In this era, the concept of 3D has not yet been clearly defined.

The first 3D game should be regarded as the VR warrior developed by Sega in 1993, that is, the 3D warrior game, through 3D modeling, and then the deep combat mode gave players an extraordinary concept of vision.

It was this game that changed Sony, prompting the company to develop PS in the direction of supporting 3D graphics.

In the future, masterpieces like Final Fantasy 7 will be born.

Now, although Shinji Mikami has not clearly proposed the concept of 3D, he is already thinking in this direction.

Really amazing.

"Three-dimensional character, what do you mean?"

The main beauty Sakata Taiji and the main program Akanishi Ken looked at him in unison.

"That is to say, don't we normal humans observe each other from a flat perspective? For example, Akanishi-san, if you look at me now, you can clearly see what I do, right?
Even if I do some rolls and kicks, you won't think it's too exaggerated.

In fighting games, the characters are observed from a similar perspective, so we feel that the actions are gorgeous and beautiful.

However, in the current situation of the bird's-eye view, many movements are blocked, and the character itself is slender, which reduces the sense of movement a lot.

So I was wondering if it was possible to bring in real-life characters and pull the angle of view to a flat angle of view, or a slightly higher flat angle of view. "

"In this way, when the characters move, they can become very beautiful."

After Mikami Shinji's explanation, everyone probably understood his appeal.

After working for a long time, does this guy actually want to make such a grand main perspective game?

In that case...

As Mikami himself said, a diorama has to be built.

Not just the characters, but the whole scene.

After listening to his words, Taiji Sakata sneered twice. Although he didn't speak on the bright side, his expression was very obvious——

Why don't you say that you want to create a virtual world directly?

"No, the performance of the current machine can't support it at all, and there is no similar software design for the graphics function, unless we make a new set of tools ourselves." Akanishi Ken is quite pragmatic, and he gave it from his professional perspective. professional judgment.

The current level of technology, whether it is software or hardware, cannot support Mikami's dream.

Even the advent of the 3D era, at least have to wait until the emergence of Sony's PS.

So that's a year away.

"In that case, it would be equivalent to remaking the whole project. I'd better advise you to give up." Akanishi Ken said mercilessly.

The current Sega MD game machine has introduced Sony's CD-ROM peripherals, and games can be played through game discs. The memory has expanded to more than 500 M, and the capacity is no longer a big problem.

But the problem lies in the software and hardware support of 3D graphics.

"Hmm..." Shinji Mikami felt extremely painful.

Everyone held their hands together, without speaking to each other, and fell into a stalemate.

"Add a cloak."

At this moment, Qing Zhiyuan, who had been standing beside him without speaking, interrupted.

Eh?
Everyone turned their heads and looked at the unexpected guest behind them.

"President. When did you come here?" Akanishi Ken asked.

"I saw that you were discussing so intensely, so I just listened casually." Qing Zhiyuan smiled, pointed at the little figure on the screen and said, "How about adding a cloak?"

Taiji Sakata clasped his hands, puzzled, "Well... that's good, but what do you mean?"

Qing Zhiyuan found paper and a pen from the side, and drew a line draft of the male protagonist wearing a cloak from an overhead perspective on the paper.

The cloak itself is not a big straight cloak in the traditional sense, but a triangular shape, more like a long scarf draped over the shoulders.

It's just that it becomes wider in the middle, and then gathers at the end. Generally speaking, this oblique triangle cloak is almost longer than the male protagonist's body.

"Look, the biggest problem we are facing now is not the perspective, but how to perform under this perspective."

The action can still be done beautifully from a bird’s-eye view, but there are skills in it, the skill is that you have to make the picture look at a bird’s-eye view【Expand】

"A person is a cylinder, like a nail, which looks thinner from a top view. But after we add a cloak, look again, does the expressiveness from this perspective suddenly increase?"

This is actually what Qing Zhiyuan learned from LOL. Many hero characters are either a big guy who develops horizontally, or add a scarf or cloak... so that they can [expand] from a bird's-eye view.

"Spreads out horizontally, which allows for more fluid movement."

Action games from an overhead perspective are basically done in this way.

Seeing this, everyone's eyes brightened.

"Wow, it really is..."

"Looking at it this way, not only does the action stretch a lot, but the cloak also adds a touch of color to the game, and at the same time enriches the design level."

"The movement is also better."

"It's amazing. Why didn't I think of it before?" The main beauty Sakata Taiji let out a sigh of admiration, admiring President Ao.

As expected of a bigwig in the game's original painting world, a few strokes, no, just one sentence can make people understand.

"After all, we have only made a top-down game, and the experience is accumulated gradually." Qing Zhiyuan laughed.

"As for the character movements, it's not a big problem to add two sets of 8-direction ones."

Hey.

It's a pity that there is no such thing as skeletal animation now, and it is basically hand-painted by people, so there is no way to achieve a particularly smooth transition, and the cloak cannot achieve natural settlement and swing effects.

But even so, as long as the hand-drawing ability is strong enough, the effect of this game is still the top in the world.

When Shinji Mikami saw this, there were endless images in his brain.

What he wanted seemed to emerge right away.

This feeling is really amazing.

……

After solving the difficulties of the Demon Hunter project, Qing Zhiyuan shifted the remaining time and focus to the upcoming new game "Your Name".

Nijin Makoto's paintings are really top-notch, just looking at the pictures can't help but make people intoxicated.

In addition to the carrier of the game, Qing Zhiyuan seems to have seen the animated movie "The King's Name" in his memory.

Looking back now, I am still very moved and even want to cry.

"Xinjin-san, sure enough, it's a very wise decision to hand over the original painting of the game to you. It's really a great job!" Qing Zhiyuan sighed.

"No, no." Xin Jincheng was a little flattered, which made him seem to have returned to the time when he was entrusted by the president himself to make the original painting of this new game a few months ago.

"In fact, the script is well written by you, the president. Of course, Ishino-san's filling and polishing made the game fuller. Without these things, I couldn't draw this story by imagination." Xinjincheng said.

Ishino Mika next to her blushed slightly, "That's right, it's all the president's well-written script."

The words of the two people are not all compliments, and the true feelings account for the majority.

But there is one thing that makes Xin Jincheng very surprised——

The script of the game itself seemed to have some kind of soul resonance and connection with him. When he saw the script, his whole soul trembled.

It was as if somewhere in the dark, this game should be created by him.

At that moment, Xinjincheng even felt that the game came alive and became a person with a soul.

When Xin Jincheng reads almost every line, he has a clear sense of picture in his brain.

Even the voices and dialogues of the hero and heroine are so real.

This time, the CV of Jun Ming was also chosen quite well.

As always, Kotono Mishishi (the voice actor of Sailor Moon Usagi Tsukino) will be the heroine for Pokeni's title.

The main thing is a [specific] [constant]

In this way, the stars who cooperate with Pokeni in the future can have a very good psychological expectation. At least if there are no major problems in the cooperation, Pokeni will not change people casually.

But it also depends on the situation, there is nothing you can do about the role that is really not suitable.

Now Kotono Sanishi is very popular, and the popularity of Sailor Moon is not lower than Pokémon at all, or even higher.

Sanshi is now considered a hot figure among seiyuu.

The male protagonist's CV is Furuya Toru, who dubbed the male protagonist Mamoru Mamoru in Sailor Moon.

This can be regarded as forming a pair of CPs with the king's name.

……

The soundtrack by Atsushi Shirakawa, the original paintings by Makoto Nitsu, the story of Kimi...

There seems to be no more perfect combination than this.

Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but look forward to it.

"By the way, President, are you still using the name [Furuhara Chunqiu] as the producer this time?" Mika Ishino asked.

Qing Zhiyuan was stunned for a second, then nodded.

"Yes, and "Your Name" will be Gu Yuan Chunqiu's last work. After this game is released, Gu Yuan Chunqiu should also retire."

"what?!"

Several people were stunned.

"What? Retreat?!" Mika Ishino opened her mouth in surprise, as if she couldn't believe what Qing Zhiyuan said just now.

I thought I had heard it wrong.

"Yes, you heard it right, it literally means to retire." Qing Zhiyuan said.

"Why?" Mika Ishino couldn't accept it emotionally.

The first successful work "Onmyoji" she produced was Gu Yuan Chunqiu's producer.

To her, Gu Yuan Chunqiu is no longer just a doppelganger of the president.

To some extent, it is more like a spiritual symbol of pokeni, because everyone knows that as long as it is a game made by [Guyuan Chunqiu], it can basically sell well.

and--

Retire?

Do you think you are an artist?

"Well, this is the result of my deliberation." Qing Zhiyuan nodded seriously, "Do you know the top advantage?"

Mika Ishino and Makoto Nitsu looked at each other and shook their heads.

"During the growth of the plant, the more nutrients the upper branches receive, the better the growth will be. In this way, the side branches will not be able to develop.

We are like this now, if you take out Furuhara Chunqiu, then in the future, [Ishino Mika] producers, Urobuchi Gen, Mikami Shinji, Niitsu you can also become a very good producer.

But Guyuan Chunqiu is still here, it will make players feel that pokeni mainly depends on Guyuan Chunqiu.

This is not what I want. "

Qing Zhiyuan paused, and continued, "And Gu Yuan Chunqiu has produced too many galgames, it's time for him to withdraw from this field. Future games can use Qing Zhiyuan's real name, or you can use yours. name.

Gu Yuan Chunqiu himself is a vest that is ready to be discarded at any time, now that the mission is completed, it is time to retire. "

Ah hey, the last one is the truth, right?
The top advantage in front is completely nonsense, okay?
Mika Ishino thought to herself.

"For the outside world, what else can producers do if they don't make games?

It will be troublesome to explain Gu Yuan Chunqiu's whereabouts then, right? "

"That's another matter. The whereabouts of Gu Yuan Chunqiu is something the media need to care about, and it has nothing to do with us."

"Wuuuuuu, President, do you really stop thinking about it? If Gu Yuan Chunqiu really retires, how sad the players will be!"

……

"Excellent, this marketing method."

Nao Tsuda smiled slyly.

The two walked side by side on the slope leading to Tsuda's house, and the surrounding autumn wind rolled up the windbreakers of the two, the picture was very eye-catching.

"Gu Yuan Chunqiu's work of retiring will definitely attract the attention of the players, so that no matter how well the title is done, the players will have to pay for their feelings.

Then after finishing this game, I will return to the next game [Guyuan Chunqiu] in response to the call of the players.

Didn't he earn twice? ! "

Nao Tsuda smiled and said, "Qing Sang, you are getting better and better now."

Qing Zhiyuan frowned fiercely, "Hey, am I serious?"
