Chapter 575: The Summit of the Gentlemen's Industry (Part II)

Refurbish the previous game to the Win platform, in fact, many manufacturers' new games will do this.

Although Japan does not bird foreign platforms, this can be seen from the future XBOX encounter, but the popularity of PC is the general trend, unless these people don't want to make money, otherwise the game is still given.

For example, these galgame manufacturers, many of them used to play games on the PC-98 unique to Japan, and only later began to play games on DOS and WINDOWS systems, and one of the big reasons is because Japanese people like to play their own.

"I've seen your previous plan, this 'trophy' system is interesting, what is it?" said TADA.

"I don't know if you've played our Crown of Sins, but in the latest DLC, we've activated this trophy content. To put it simply, what kind of choice the player has made or completed a certain condition, he can achieve a certain 'achievement', this achievement is the player's trophy, and our game itself is not a PC binding, but a user binding, so this kind of trophy can always exist, so to speak, this is the player's proof. ”

Speaking of this, Mori Xia paused, he looked around again at the dozen or so representatives sitting here, and he continued: "As we all know, the Internet has been on the rise in Japan, and from the current point of view, the Internet does not seem to have much impact on the hosting market, but this is not the case in the gentleman's industry. Animic is also about to launch a sub-brand of adult games, and we have done a series of market research, and the gradual networking of PC games is a trend. ”

Although the console party is very stubborn, but on the PC, everyone is still very open-minded, although many game manufacturers in Japan are stubborn that games such as online games should also appear on the console, but I have to say, the Japanese still have some ideas in this regard. Games like the Stone Age, for a large eastern country, this is an enlightenment game. In the future, there will indeed be DMM sites on Japanese websites that are making online games in the 18X series.

Eh,Wait,Games like the Stone Age seem to be very interesting.,Let's see if you want to contact Brother Pony to get these especially agents in the future?

Although the network has a first-mover advantage, this does not mean that other aspects of talent are not needed, on the contrary, other aspects of talent are also very important, whether it is ability or various aspects. It's all very impressive.

Senxia had thought about taking the online game to another place, but he didn't have a perfect plan yet, and now that he thinks about it, the Stone Age should be coming out soon, and he can let Xiao Ma go to the ......

"Ahem. Realizing that he was distracted, Mori Xia coughed, and then continued, "All in all, in the Internet age, information exchange is a very important means. For players, the trophy is proof that they have played the game, which can increase the player's impulse to buy the game. ”

Well, "Hi +1" or something. It's definitely Steam's big killer.,Even if you can't use it in Japan.,You can get it abroad.,If you can get it here.。 It can also be sent abroad.

"We're going to use a new platform to showcase our games, and the old games have almost no cost, and the digital medium games don't need to consume physical costs. Therefore, these old games can be sold at almost the same price as used games, or even lower, and we can expand our sales by entrusting them to sell point cards, and the physical version has more bonuses and commemorative significance than the purely digital version, so it will not affect the sales of the physical version. ”

The above is lip service, the sales of the digital version will definitely lead to a decline in the sales of the physical version, but this does not mean that the profit of the game will decrease, on the contrary, it is precisely because of the digital version that the sales of the game will also increase.

Of course, players will evolve with it, and while the number of gamers is on the rise, the number of pure gentleman gamers is really decreasing.

The current industry is still in the golden and silver period, but from the response of these people to Senxia's call, we know that everyone is actually not very down-to-earth, sales are indeed increasing, and the gameplay is also improving, but when 3D games began to come out, pure AVG began to become a little weak.

ELF's income is still very high, but its influence in the entire game industry is declining, and in the early nineties, ELF can be said to be unrivaled for a while, what Sony, what Nintendo, in the peak of ELF can be said to be seen and not worried. But after that brief period of time, the influence of the entire industry began to decline.

How to say, this is its rise and fall, although the sales are increasing, but the industry is really in decline. In the original history, if it weren't for the fact that one FATE suddenly became popular and brought confidence to the industry, maybe the entire industry would have languished, and the profits might still be there, but the influence of the entire industry would definitely have declined.

Of course, this isn't just an industry problem.

Taking advantage of the interval between speaking, Mori Xia glanced at the people around him again, although these people cannot be said to be very typical Japanese, but Sen Xia hurried to pack tickets, and among these people, at least half of them have inherited the Japanese tradition of death.

The infighting within the two clubs, ELF and LEAF, is a blow to the industry.

Japanese people are very creative, but sometimes it's hard to get them going. The simplest is "Ranch Story", after entering 3D, the system of Ranch Story can be said to be more and more complex, even complicated, but what people want to see is the original light 2D version of "Ranch Story", so although the sales of the "Ranch Story" series are growing, but the "To (Mountain) Jing (Zhai)" "Stardew Valley" that came out of nowhere can have millions of sales, and the highest sales of "Ranch Story" itself are not as good as this work.

Of course, this is also related to the platform, and it is natural that 3DS will be killed by PC, who told you to hold on to the handheld and not log in to the PC?

"Mr. Xia Sen has a very good opinion of our industry, I know that there are some very wonderful gentleman mods in "Guilty Crown", these gentlemen are very good in content, and they don't seem to be made by a third party at all, isn't this Mr. Xia Sen's exploration of the future of gentlemen?"

Senxia nodded: "I think there are two futures for Galgame, one is a pure 2D traditional AVG, and the other is a 3D interactive movie genre that represents the game in the form of a performance. ”

"A 3D interactive movie?"

Everyone looked at each other.

"With all due respect, Mr. Xia Sen. 3D is a very poor thing, and it's expensive to develop, which doesn't really help us a lot. The representative of the ELF found this statement a bit absurd.

However, Sen Xia shook his head: "I think the current situation of our industry is very strange, the limelight of gentleman's games was once unmatched in the early nineties, and the prosperity of the industry is even more prosperous than other orthodox game circles, but the game cost of the gentleman's game industry has always been decoupled from profits, which is an abnormal phenomenon in itself." ”

In this regard, American interactive AVGs such as "Heavy Rain" and "Until Dawn" are clear examples.

This type of game is very similar to JAG, it is a process and then there are some options, but the only difference is that American works make these images like movies, and they use graphics instead of words.

The sales of "Heavy Rain", according to Mori Xia's knowledge, seem to be 3 million, which is more than ten times the highest sales of galgame.

"Although this sentence is a bit offended to the seniors, but if we don't have new ideas in the industry, the survival of the industry will be a huge problem, and personally, I think it is better for everyone to sit together and work together to develop a big game. ”

said so, but Mori Xia didn't actually want to do it overnight, although everyone was thoughtful, but in addition to the I club, the people of the other clubs had a noncommittal attitude towards what Sen Xia said.

"Of course, things need to be done step by step, just as the success of Kadokawa and Sega is not something so simple. Naturally, Mori Natsu thought of Kadokawa and Sega, but the others thought differently than Mori Natsu.

After hearing Senxia's words, what they thought of was another possibility: maybe this "rich second generation" could really do this?

However, their thoughts and Senxia didn't expect them together.

"First of all, I think we can make a unified specification, which is simply a self-discipline of the industry, and everyone else has to follow our rules, and the other point is that I would like to say that new technology, 3D may be a difficult thing for us now, but it is not difficult to make 2D move and interact with the player. ”

That's right, this is what Mori Xia wants to talk about, and that is 2DLIVE, although it's not 3D, but it's something that can make 2D characters move.

"2D moves, gifs are easy to implement, but they don't work, right?"

Senxia shook his head: "It's not that kind of thing, but a new system where we can make characters look at where our mouse is pointing, change their movements, and even make them turn and lift their skirts......"

Hearing Sen Xia say this, everyone was stunned.

Hey, it looks really good......

......

Speaking of which, it was also an interesting time, iQue's genuine GBA would be despised by GBA people, and some people would not know the goods, saying that they were copycats and pirated copies......

Of course, the previous opinion was just a casual complaint, but I do prefer Ore Town OwO.
