"Thank you very much this time. ”

"It's great to be able to help Superintendent Kami-Anno. But I'd like to congratulate Overseer Anno. ”

Hideaki Anno leaves GAINAX and prepares to set up his own studio.

This was on another world line, which used to be a few years later, but in this world line, Hideaki Anno's exit was much earlier.

THIS IS NOT UNREASONABLE, BUT BECAUSE THE WORK "NEON GENESIS EVANGELION" HAS AN EXTRA GAIDEN ANIMATION IN THIS WORLD, AND BECAUSE OF THE BENEFITS GENERATED BY THE NEW ANIMATION, THIS HAS CAUSED SOME CONTRADICTIONS BETWEEN GANAX AND HIDEAKI ANNO.

Hideaki Anno is a ruthless person, so he simply flashed himself, and took all the copyrights of "Evangelion" and established his own animation company.

And among them, Mori Xia and Chika also helped, and Hideaki Anno's animation company also has shares in Musashino, and if it weren't for Musashino's support, Hideaki Anno's new animation company might be more troublesome.

In addition to this, there is also a new game for Evangelion: Infinite Echoes.

The new machine – the one that occupies the future Star G series – the GS is capable of bringing out the full effects of Evangelion: Echoes Infinite.

This work is not the same as the previous "Evangelion", but now the pre-order number has been paid off, and if it is officially released later, it can be expected that this work will definitely be a big sale.

Hideaki Anno's face bloomed with a smile.

Although he will also use "Evangelion" to make money, his side is still really not as good as Senxia here.

Senxia is really good at development.

If you ask Hideaki Anno to come, the most he can do is find a few screenshots from the animation as CG, and then add a piece of text casually, make some pictures, and everything will be fine.

But Senxia was able to bring a steady stream of benefits to himself.

That's cool.

Although Hideaki Anno himself actually doesn't plan to put it in the official history for those "OOC fandoms who don't know where they come from but are still very popular".,But when you meet people, you'll still blow it up.。

No way, it's too much to earn.

The Overseer can't refuse!

"Senxia. ”

After a burst of commercial touting, Hideaki Anno thought of some places.

"You say, can Evangelion make online games?"

"Evangelion? I'm afraid this is a bit difficult, because Evangelion is an online game, and there is so much content to fill. In this case, the appeal of the original work may only be left on the surface. Unless we have a way to get all players to use EVA in the game. ”

Hideaki Anno has a new company, and of course he is preparing to be a new evangelion.

But Hideaki Anno wants to hurry up, so it is necessary to circle money.

It just so happens that the online games on Senxia's side have made a lot of money, and among them, the hottest online game is the game of "Sword Art Online" with an animation foundation.

The animation and game of Sword Art Online are two different developments of the same worldview, one is a game world that has not yet been in contact with another world, and the other is a game world that has merged with another world.

But the two are actually somewhat complementary, and many settings about Kayaba Jinghiko can't be found in the animation, but in the game, they can be found. And in the game, there are also mission cards for each character, and even the weapons used by each character in the animation can be found in the game.

It's amazing, and it's a big part of what makes the game and the animation go hand in hand. For example, if Kirito or Asuna hits a new boss's weapon in the animation, then in the game, the traffic of this dungeon will increase more than three times, which is why the player wants to "have the same character".

And such animations and games are nothing in Hideaki Anno's opinion, because many works do this.

To take the simplest example, it is Pokémon.

The anime protagonist of "Pokémon" is Ash, and the manga also has another character, and the story and world settings are different, and "Pokémon" also has a special comic, which is different from the two, and there are really many fans, and there are even fans who petition for a special animation.

Many people, including Hideaki Anno, actually think that Mori Xia's operation is to copy Ren Hell with a writing wheel.

But in reality, that's only part of the story.

"Online games don't work......"

Hideaki Anno has some pity.

Because of the popularity of the game "Evangelion: Infinite Echoes", Hideaki Anno was a little floating.

But in fact, it is really not easy for Evangelion to be changed into an online game, because the world of Evangelion is limited, there are not many enemies, and there are not many friends.

"Unless...... It is infinitely echoes of this expanded worldview. That is, an apostle has taken over the earth, and most of the people have been turned into the soup of life, and there are only a few survivors of the absolute force field. And our players, you can act as survivors. ”

"That's right...... I'll think about it a little. ”

Hideaki Anno was a little distressed by the proposal from Mori Natsu's side.

It sounds interesting, but it's a little different from what I expected.

However, it is not unacceptable.

After all, Hideaki Anno is an existence that even Evangelion can accept when he becomes a school idol drama.

"However, if you need to develop an online game, it is actually a bit risky. Because there is a lot of investment. ”

Senxia's side can afford it.

But not necessarily on Hideaki Anno's side.

Of course, Hideaki Anno can also choose to license and not participate in actual development and investment. But the risk is small, the benefits are small, and the development of online games is less meaningful, so it is better to continue to develop stand-alone games.

You must know that online games are not only the cost of development, but also the cost of operation and maintenance, especially various game servers, which is a large amount of money.

The pioneers who dare to do online games in these years are really powerful in this sense.

"Speaking of which, I suggest that you can develop handheld games, as well as work character licensing development. Senxia said.

"Handheld? are you going to be handhelds too?" Of course Hideaki Anno knows about handhelds, and the handheld market is basically dominated by the Hell family now, and Sega has challenged it before, but it has failed.

But Hideaki Anno soon understood.

The Order of the Phoenix actually has a handheld as well.

It's just that the previous handheld of the Order of the Phoenix,The performance is relatively weak.,That kind of handheld,It's not so much a handheld.,It's better to say a high-end handle with a screen.。

However, because of games such as "Brain Platinum", the development of this handheld is very scary.

The handheld is good. BUT PROBABLY NOT MANY PEOPLE COMPARE THE XBOX OF THE PHOENIX TO THE GBA, BECAUSE THE FORMER HAS NEVER REALLY MADE IT INTO THE HEARTS OF HANDHELD PLAYERS.

But from another point of view, the works of this generation are not a kind of technical accumulation.

Once you test the water for the first time and develop it later, it's much less difficult.

"Handheld gaming is a great platform. However, our handheld is different from the general handheld, which is mainly based on touch screen. Senxia said.

"Sounds ...... Seems to be pretty good. Hideaki Anno thought it was an unexpectedly good idea.

The cost of the handheld is small, and the reward is high.

Don't say it, just develop a game in the handheld market, and the sales don't have to be too high to pay off.

"I think there can be. Hideaki Anno said, "What do you think I should do better?"

"Hmm...... Evangelion is a great theme, and if you're passing by on a handheld, Battle Flags, Cultivation, and Text Adventures are all great options. But we also support other areas. "Action games are also perfectly fine. If it's an EVA battle-based work, I think that's okay. ”

"Hmm...... Looks like a real problem. ”

There are too many choices, and this time Hideaki Anno didn't know how to choose.

He didn't know anything about games, after all, Hideaki Anno had also done this back then. But the problem is that he really doesn't understand the current market.

"Why don't I introduce you to some good gamers, they might have a good idea? "It's Qianjia who speaks, and Qianjia's connections are still quite good.

"Oh, yes, that's so thankful. ”

After the matter was decided, the three of them could be regarded as having finished one thing.

"Are you planning to make online games lately?" asked Hideaki Anno casually.

"There is a plan. But it's not clear what to do. Senxia shook his head.

Naturally, there is nothing wrong with general online games, but if Senxia wants to make a game that is comparable to World of Warcraft, it will be very troublesome.

In fact, during this time, Animic's side has been working on the seamless map, through which players can smoothly reach the location at the other end without having to read the map.

This is something that many online games in the future can't do, but World of Warcraft has done it.

Senxia also wants to do it, so now Senxia is in trouble.

"Is there a convenient place to talk about, maybe I can give some immature advice. Hideaki Anno said.

"Yes, we designed the story in a future world, and the main scene is a new world, but after doing the first batch of concept designs, we found that this concept was a bit confusing, and it was difficult to reflect the concept of science fiction. ”

The concept of science fiction is subtle.

According to Senxia's previous concept, if the background of the story is set on a wild planet, the scene itself will still be more natural and fantastical, and it will not reflect the so-called "science fiction" feeling at all.

It's embarrassing for him to meow.

Senxia's previous idea was good, but it was implemented...... Art is meant to kill.

- I think you're struggling with me for art or modeling.

So as a last resort, the concept on Senxia's side still has to change, but fortunately, the story is now in the early stages, and the engine itself is not mature, so it's okay to adjust it a little now.

"Then put it in the city. Hideaki Anno said.

"Similar apocalyptic scenes, we've thought about before. What Resident Evil, what nuclear explosion, there have been. But then I felt that it was too ordinary, and pure apocalypse was not interesting. ”

The apocalyptic theme is actually used in the future.

But now, the subject is quite new.

"Creative apocalypse, an apostolic shock!" said Hideaki Anno with a smile.

"Huh?" Senxia had a flash of inspiration.

Strictly speaking, Evangelion is also a post-apocalyptic theme.

Not only Evangelion, many similar works can actually be said to be apocalyptic, or post-apocalyptic stories.

"Apostle Impact, that's good!" Sen Xia felt quite interesting.

"Hahaha, right. After drinking a little wine, Hideaki Anno felt quite happy.

At this time, Sen Xia continued: "An era of the near future that has collapsed may also be a place similar to the nest capital, and in terms of weapons, twin guns, machine guns, and electromagnetic swords...... Mmmmmm ”

If you have an urban background, there are a lot of interesting things.

And there are many such backgrounds.

"Bloodthirsty Code", "Nier Automata", "Mass Effect's Battle of Krogan", etc., these are all typical and interesting places in the future.

"Action?" asked Qianjia.

"Action RPG genre bar. "The story of the near-future end to the post-apocalyptic era may incorporate some supernatural elements. ”

Mori Xia thinks this is pretty good.

And in this case, Senxia has more cards in his hand.

From The Crown of Sin to Infinite Borderline, there are places where these backgrounds have the potential to be applied.

If you develop from these stories, you can do something interesting.

The former's Void Virus itself has a design similar to Evangelion's "Second Impact", and also has a special ability "Void", and after a "Third Impact", it is also possible to expand the world.

The latter is simpler.,This work itself is the same world view as "Magical Girl Naye".,Directly pull out the "intellectual enemy" of one of the "three enemies of the world" of the final boss in "Infinite Realm".,You can do a civilized enemy's "Honkai Impact 3" like a cat and a tiger.。

"Huhuhu, it feels good. ”

After the communication with this side was over, Senxia felt in a good mood.

"You have a new idea in mind?" asked Qianjia.

"yes. "There's a lot of creativity. I feel pretty good. ”

Senxia even felt that he might be able to pull over part of the story of "Horizon on the Borderline" to adjust.

"The battle mode is adjusted on the basis of Sword Art Online, you can change the type of locking, and then adjust and modify some of the design of the character itself to make it more RPG-oriented...... Well, you can make an open world map in Sword Art Online for technical accumulation. "Senxia thinks it's pretty good.

"Got it figured?" asked Qianjia.

"Well, that's right. ”

"In that case, look at this, you remember what you said when you came. It occurred to me that maybe I could give it a try here. ”

Mori Xia took the poster that Qianjia brought.

"Elohill...... Paradise?"
