Chapter 450: Such a presumptuous chapter number
Although it is very important to have a treat, but at this time in Mori Xia, there is another thing in the club that is also very important, that is, Nana will officially become a regular employee of Mori Xiajun and their Animic club from graduation, and since March, Nana has officially graduated from school, and then has become a real social person.
After arranging a make-up task for Lihua, early the next morning, Qianjia and Senxia came to the company's club.
After the club, there are two part-time jobs, one is Daisuke Ono, who is studying at university, and the other is Ayana Amamiya, the main program on Mori Xia's side.
But at this time, they are also on vacation, so at this time, they are already temporarily coming to work full-time.
"It's a great feeling to have all the people together. Looking at the office where all the staff had arrived, Sen Xia's face showed a satisfied expression.
"It's a pity that ZUN-san isn't here. Qianjia is also very satisfied with the on-site office, although it can't be said to be perfect, but compared with before, it is already much better, although there are a few people, but it is indeed presentable.
The only pity for Qianjia is that ZUN-san is not here at this time, he belongs to the person who works at home, in fact, ZUN-san also has his own studio.
There are actually a lot of people like this, and there are such people working from home in Japan or many places in Japan, Europe and the United States, although it was relatively rare in the Celestial Empire in 1998, but this is not the case in other places.
For example, many concept artists, composers, and even some animation supervisors work from home or do most of the work, and some have their own special studios.
Of course, this kind of person is mainly full-time, as for Himeba...... That belongs to the local tyrants, with a complete exception.
"But in that case, the rest of the work should be easier, right?"
Senxia thought of another thing at this time. "Our script progress has been more than halfway through, and it will probably be completed in May and June. ”
Speaking of which, this is also a good thing.
Although Mushroom has various procrastinations, when it comes to Senxia's work, the speed is much faster, so Senxia gave the other party a 200,000-word outline, and asked Mushroom to describe some battle scenes and stories.
Lao Xu's side is also progressing very quickly, but Senxia doesn't add too much work to the other party. Because after the other party has completed the things here, the RPG side still needs the help of Lao Xu.
In addition to this, there are also 300,000 words of scripts on Yukino's side, and the number of scripts originally scheduled for Senxia's side was 2 million words, but depending on the current situation, it will probably expand to between 2.5 million words and 3 million words.
"Well, it's a pity, if you have enough time, you can do it harder. Expanding to 3.5 million words, or even 4.5 million words, seems to be more interesting. ”
Mori Xia thought it would be interesting if he could make the script a little stronger.
"That's just too much. With such a huge amount of text, the burden of art and performance is also very large, and even if you can finish it here, you may not be able to finish it in a hurry there. ”
Qianjia said as she turned on her computer here. Then she started to deal with her side of the work, first of all, all the emails, the webmails from Sony and Sega and Kadokawa. It's all handled by Qianjia, but the current electronic office is not fashionable, so there is not much work in this part.
"I'm just talking, if the script is too long, the audience might get bored. Senxia nodded.
"Not necessarily. ”
Lao Xuan was making coffee with hot water at the water dispenser at this time, and after hearing the conversation between the two, he walked over: "When I was making games in my previous company, everyone also made a summary and investigation. There are several kinds of players, some of them are for the experience of various routes, do CG recycling, they generally don't care about the length of the single line, but there must be more scripts and female characters; some players, I want to clear the game as soon as possible, and the story is enough for them to just read a rough story; and some players are more engaged, for them, the longer the story, the better. ”
"That being said, we also have to pay attention to the cost and risk on our side, and blindly injecting water into the script will make the story less interesting. "Mori Xia felt that simply increasing the length would not do.
Don't underestimate Japan's Galgame,Some relatively large Galgames,The amount of text will not be less than a web novel.,Millions of words.,This is all something made by Japanese manufacturers.,And the difference between these games and novels is that the game also has a background CG and a vertical painting or something.,Together,It can be said that it's a very complicated work.。
And unlike novels, after the launch of a Galgame, if the sales of a Galgame die violently, it will definitely be a very tragic thing, relatively speaking, something similar to the list of online novels can also be eunuchs, cut in half and unfinished, and can be stopped in time.
Thinking of this, Sen Xia thought of another thing in his mind: "And in terms of sales, you also need to think about it......"
One of the characteristics of Galgame is that after the release, the sales in the first few weeks are basically equal to all the sales of the game, which is also an important reason why it is difficult for Galgame to become mainstream.
Although Japan is a big game country, this is not even as good as the opposite of the pirated Celestial Empire, in the Celestial Empire, a domestic Galgame, its sales can sometimes even run through its entire life cycle, such as the game "College Entrance Examination Love 100 Days", its sales popularity is continuous, and in Japan, the sales of such games are often cliff-jumping.
Qianjia naturally knew this, but looking at Sen Xia's thoughts, he seemed to have other ideas.
She asked, "...... What do you want to do?"
"I think sales and profit are not the goals we are pursuing, but the exposure and popularity of the game are more important. "Maybe we can think differently and run our game with a long-term perspective. ”
The club that does Galgame,The pressure of money and time can be said to be very great.,If a game loses money.,Basically start doing the next game right away.,There won't be even a little bit of idle.,Otherwise, the situation will be more dangerous.。 And this type of game is very pre-order-oriented, and the pre-order itself can determine the sales of a work.
But Senxia thought differently.
"Plants vs. Zombies" is now popular in North America, bringing a lot of money to Senxia and them, and even Qianjia's own money for selling the house before is a bit of a big deal.
In other words...... We're rich!
Rich people have to have rich people's play.
"In addition to the physical version, we can make other sales models, such as the digital version...... Hawkers,Forget it.,It's too early at this point.,But there's a home console version or something after that.。 ”
Senxia originally considered a digital version. But after thinking about it, he felt that although the network was there, online payment was not mature, so he forgot it.
"But we do have other ways to get exposed, especially since we have RPG versions later, and we can even serialize novels online or in magazines. Mori Xia said his thoughts, "Then, we can develop DLC for the plot, that is, additional episodes to add. Put it on the network to download it, or launch a data disk or something. ”
"Serialization is really influential on the popularity of a work, and jump does just that, but can this method still be used for Galgame?"
"It's something no one has ever tried before. "Lao Xu's whimsical about Senxia. He seemed a little surprised, "But is that really okay?"
"We're not short of money!"
Senxia is so presumptuous!
"We're not short of money at all now, what we have to think about is the impact of the work!"
If Plants vs. Zombies were to hit the streets, Mori Xia would naturally not do it. I wouldn't think so, but the problem now is that we have a mountain behind us. Don't be in a hurry!
"Yes, if you don't care about sales, it doesn't matter. Lao Xuan nodded, "But in this case, my experience can't be used." ”
"It doesn't matter, we're crossing the river by feeling the stones. Senxia waved his hand.
"But what Mori Xia said does make sense.,Animation and manga works too.,There's a topic and heat when it's serialized.,Once the serialization and playback are over,,The heat will decrease.,The first two years EVA was very popular.,But as far as the topic is concerned,,The popularity of this work has gradually been overshadowed by new works.。 Qianjia felt that what Sen Xia said made sense, "Even if it's a masterpiece, it's almost the same, and in terms of Galgame, no one has tried it like this, but maybe it works?"
In Mori Xia's opinion, if Galgame can also be as weekly or even only monthly as web novels and anime, then this Galgame should be able to maintain the popularity, but this is a bit unrealistic, although Sen Xia's idea he feels good about himself, but it is technically difficult to implement.
"Hmm...... That's the case. Qianjia seemed to have something in mind.
"What?" Senxia turned around.
"450!4.5 million words!This seems to be doable!" Qianjia smiled, "We said that this method is very burdensome, but if we continue to release DLC or other scripts in the future, we can completely expand the text content to 4.5 million words!"
"Senior sister, didn't you refuse before?" Sen Xia was puzzled.
"It was before, it's now, if we use your new way to make games, we can also be flexible, and it's not the first time to do it, it's perfectly okay to extend it to two or three years. We can follow what you said, make the extra content into downloadable content, and then update it monthly or even weekly, and then integrate and distribute the information pack when it accumulates to a certain extent, and that's it!"
Emotional senior, you have the same idea as I just now!
Senxia rolled her eyes.
450 is 450......
......
Regarding the wrong name, the main reason is that Qianjia and Lihua have had a lot of situations recently, and there was no problem with using Kichijoin in the past, but it was tragic to replace it with Lihua.
@_@
The bug has been fixed.
The stalk of 450 originated from the contracting system of station B, and the highest contracting (tip) was 450, so it later became a stalk.
The combination with a certain left up master has become a 12450 idiom......
The second update!
People are a little sleepy, try to write the next one, you don't have to wait...... (To be continued.) )
