Tokyo Gentleman Story

At the beginning of November last year, Morinatsu was preparing for the Sakano Festival, but this year Morinatsu was fighting the game at the Anmic Club.

"...Not enough."

Senxia shook her head.

The picture of the Dark Soul is already very good, but after comparing the Dark Souls of the two world lines, Senxia discovered that the Dark Soul of this world still has a lot of room for improvement.

Of course, the gap between the two worlds is a bit big. Compared with the Dark Soul of the other world, it seems a little subtle, but after comparing with God of War 2, he found that it is also much worse.

You know, the performance of PS2 is similar to that of DC, but the screen of the game of Dark Souls is far inferior to PS2's God of War 2, and there is even a gap between God of War 1 and Mori Xia suddenly felt a little bad.

As for the PC version, the situation is even more subtle, because the game "Dark Souls" requires a lot of graphics card performance, so the video memory bandwidth and other things have great performance limitations.

If it was before this, it could run, but after Hidetaka Miyazaki unreasonably added many new features, the PC side began to reach a bottleneck-and most importantly, Mori is still asking Hidetaka Miyazaki. High here improves the quality of the game.

"Mori, but if you continue to improve the performance, the machine can't stand it." Miyazaki Hidetaka shook his head.

"...Then specifically ask the team to do optimization," Morinia said with a frown, "We set up a game optimization department. The job of this department is to optimize games."

Quantic-Dream has a dedicated optimization team to optimize the game. This company develops games such as Rainstorm, Mind Killer and Extraordinary Twins. After development, there is a dedicated team to optimize the game so that the game can be used in PS2 and PS3. More screen content is displayed in the memory.

Speaking of it, the company’s interactive movie ancestor-level game "Evil Spirit City" seems to be on the market in two months.

Thinking of this, Senxia felt more and more that time did not seem to be enough.

"Is this a little too trivial?" Lihua said.

During the busy days of Senxia, ​​Lihua is working with Senxia.

After hearing that Senxia was going to take over DreamCast, Lihua was also working hard to help Senxia solve the problem with Sega.

Senxia's recent decisions are all related to DC, and Lihua is behind Senxia every day.

"Although we at Anmic also value gameplay, games such as interactive movies are definitely visually oriented. Even if you don't want it now, you will definitely need to optimize the team in the future." Morinya shook her head, "All in all, this is not good now. ..."

Yes, the current picture and next year’s Metal Gear Solid 2 will be in between.

But this is not enough.

"The shock is not enough, and there is no way to make players feel obsessed. It can also be improved." Compared with the performance of PS2, Mori summer put forward his own opinions, "Before June next year, I hope to watch without affecting the gameplay. To double the screen performance."

"Eight months to double the performance of the screen? This is impossible! Shenmue has not achieved this!"

Even Hidetaka Miyazaki felt that Morinka's opinions were a bit too much.

"It doesn’t matter what method you use, whether you hire a team, engage in outsourcing, or if you want to do any other work, there’s no problem. You can go to a big eastern country, go to a lighthouse country, or even go to Europe. Africa, but the graphics must be done well." Mori Xia was tough once, "I heard it, Miyazaki, this is not just a game matter, it is related to the overall development of our club in the future. If you can't figure it out, you If you think anyone can do it, recommend it."

"..."

Hidetaka Miyazaki did not answer Morinatsu immediately, but fell into deep thought.

"How much money can I use?" he asked.

Morinka thought about it for a while, and then said, "One billion yen, the greatest support I can give you."

If it weren't for the smooth listing of the Stone Age, it would be difficult for Senxia to make up his mind, but now with cash cows, Senxia can also come up with some strength.

But one billion yen is also Morinatsu’s limit. If you want to invest more, you have to wait until EVA-RETAKE and Yuanzhikong are released. Animation is also a money-burning project. Morinka has made a lot of money. Money, but also used a lot of money, it is impossible to really want to transfer funds on a large scale.

After saying this, Morika continued to exhort: "I heard, Miyazaki, we are going to E3 next year. If there is no way to play games, then we will be just a joke at the exhibition."

After hearing Morinatsu's words, Hidetaka Miyazaki also nodded.

The E3 game exhibition opened in 1995 is more authoritative than the Tokyo Game Show. It is definitely a good thing for Anmic to go to the E3 exhibition and then promote itself in an independent exhibition hall.

However, if the answers given here are not good enough, that is also a problem.

Dark Souls, Forbearance, Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, FATE Interactive Movie Version, Legend of the Sword, these large-scale games are what Morinka wants to show the audience at E3, although Morinka has a lot more here. Excellent, but AVG games are not suitable for E3 game show.

"We are going to expand the recruitment of a group of people next. This recruitment will be open to the whole world. At that time, the newly established department may be located in Beimi."

Animic's most profitable industry is in the lighthouse country, so Morinya also wants to deploy in North America.

After all, the stand-alone development of a large eastern country is going downhill. If Senxia wants to be a stand-alone machine, he must have a place in Europe and the United States.

Hidetaka Miyazaki nodded.

"In addition, in terms of gameplay and operation, I don't allow any compromise." Senxia continued.

"Hi!" Miyazaki also nodded. After all, they are all young people. Although what Morxia said seems a bit difficult, it doesn't make any sense to push three things in this place.

"In addition, you can't shirk responsibility and throw off the pot. I said it must be completed, and it must be completed."

Neon Gold is best at dumping the pot. Although there is no such phenomenon in Animic, Morika thinks it is better to say it first.

"call……"

Miyazaki Hidetaka did not immediately come up with a plan. After Morinka's side, he returned to his office and continued to work on the Dark Soul.

"It seems that it is really not a simple matter to squeeze the performance of a machine."

Senxia shook her head sighfully.

To achieve the height of God of War 2, it requires not only the accumulation of technology, but also the accumulation of time.

But now Morinka just couldn't give that much time.

"If it's eight months, there should be no way to do it, right?" After Miyazaki Hidetaka left, Qianjia spoke.

"This is necessary. The development cycle of Dark Souls is 24 months, and now it has been adjusted to 30 months. For these 30 months, I hope they can come up with a game that shocks me enough. If you can't do it At this level, there is no point at all."

The Dark Soul will not come out until this time in 2001, for two full years.

However, the engine of Dark Souls will be slightly modified after completion, and it will be used on the FATE interactive movie version. For the development of interactive movies, the time given by Morinia is only 12 months if the engine is excluded.

For such interactive movies, if there is no way to solve the problem of difficulty in development, then there is no meaning at all-simplicity and ease of use is Senxia's pursuit.

Therefore, the dark soul that pays more attention to gameplay needs a long time to develop and polish, and the time of FATE interactive movies cannot be too long. If it is too long, it will mean Morinka's failure.

"However, Mori Xia-kun would be so arrogant to make demands. This is the first time I have seen it." When Mori Xia asked Miyazaki Hidetaka, Mori Xia's firm attitude really shocked Lihua.

"Will it?" Senxia shrugged. "There may be a little bit, but otherwise, we won't be able to win."

Metal Gear Solid 2, and the future God of War series, these are all good games in the minds of players, and they are not the same as Shenmue ~www.readwn.com~Metal Gear and God of War series, sales are crushed, people’s reputation Ying, if Morinia wants to surpass these games, he must keep improving.

Dark Souls is a good game, a game that can compete with these two series, but the premature Dark Souls should be compared with these two games, optimization, optimization and optimization, this process is necessary.

"But, I may need something of my own..."

As a gentleman, Senxia is not satisfied with copycats and magic reforms, he also wants to do something he likes and hears.

It is not necessary to go to E3, but it must be strong enough. It is best to be able to put all kinds of gentleman's things like the Elder Scrolls.

"A Brave New World?"

Senxia suddenly thought of the word game on his side. Now the beautiful new world has a graphical interface, and novice users will have no obstacles to play. The picture interface is also very good, but the plot is completely described in words. Fighting, I am afraid that not everyone can accept, but if this system can be made into a system like the Elder Scrolls, it seems not bad?

"Black Soul's engine is very suitable for the development of RPG and action games. Although there may be some problems in making FPS, if it feels like this, maybe it can?"

Although there are games like Mankind, it is really the best game with a sense of openness.

"Well, forget it, wait until later."

Senxia shook her head and withdrew her dizzy thinking, Senxia concentrated on Anmic's recent affairs.

Saving DC is not that simple...

...

Today's morals.

Fix it up and start working hard tomorrow...

At the end of the last chapter, the babble became a metal bullet, but seeing everyone so happy, I won’t change it.
