Chapter 1671: A Game of Swords and Shrine Maidens
Senxia, who was watched by Qianjia, is now super calm.
But even if you are not calm, you still do what you have to do.
Since Hidetaka Miyazaki himself is here, it is best to design the story and do it with him.
When designing animations and games, the requirements for the story are different.
In the game, the stage design of the game is exquisite, and the stage of the open game is different from the stage of the line. And between a writer and a game producer, the thinking and ideas are also different.
The story of "Sword Messenger Shrine Maiden" is Mori Natsu, and although Hidetaka Miyazaki is very interested, the content itself still needs to be adjusted by the original author, so it is the best.
Of course, there are also cases of game producers letting go of themselves, and there are quite a few of them. As for the effect...... Not to mention, some of them are pretty good.
But now Mori Xia is a big boss.
Oh, and on the other hand, it's a big boss with money.
No matter how strong the idea and the big plan of the game producer is, their first goal is always funding.
And Senxia is a big boss who can provide enough funds.
So there's nothing wrong with Senxia writing a story here, on the contrary - it means that the production of this game will be able to get a lot of funding later!
Senxia also restrained his emotions here.
Sister Qianjia doesn't seem to have any problems, and it's best to create seriously now.
Mori Xia is also quite interested in this whole story.
He really wanted to see what kind of game Hidetaka Miyazaki could make.
Maybe it's going to be funny......
So now Senxia is facing the first problem.
"So where should we set the story?"
Even if it's a modern city, you need a suitable place.
Many of the Japanese games have a modern background. But many of these games are very clamoured, the so-called modern settings are full of air walls, there are not many places to move, and the whole story feels like a comical stage play.
Of course, there are also games that are very well made, and some can even be said to be classics.
But Mori Xia looked around, but felt that he could find the possibility of benchmarking the work...... Too little.
He found that the most suitable benchmark was actually his own "Demon Ninja".
But this story is not of that type......
Of course, if you don't limit yourself to Japanese stories, Mori Xia finds that there are actually more situations that can be used for reference.
Although I was a little embarrassed, at this time, what Sen Xia thought of in his mind was the architecture of a classic European and American open game.
That kind of game is obviously a jack-of-all-trades story structure, and the various designs are simply not too convenient.
But......
There's a question......
That is, Hidetaka Miyazaki is not someone who can make this kind of game.
The story of the other party, although it is not a completely linear narrative structure, is also a kind of narrative narrative.
But gradually, the brain hole of a comic work appeared in Sen Xia's mind.
The name of the manga is "The Girl's Final Journey".
Senxia was very impressed by the urban design in this work.
This kind of urban design is somewhat similar to cyberpunk style, and some is similar to the design of "nest capital".
He thinks this kind of design seems to be a good one.
"How about we design the story in a huge three-dimensional city?" Mori Xia asked.
"Three-dimensional city?" Hidetaka Miyazaki, who had also been exposed to the Warhammer series, asked, "What kind of nest?"
"Slightly closer. ”
In "The Girl's Final Journey", the two heroines roam in a huge city, and then keep climbing to it.
Mori Xia thinks this concept is good.
“...... It's not a shrine maiden at all. But Qianjia objected, "Why don't you use the background of the animation?"
"The background of the anime looks good, but it's not suitable for a Souls series story. ”
The background of the anime is also interesting, but it is not suitable as a background for the game.
The reasons for this are complex, but at the end of the day, the story was created for animation.
This is different from the "Naye" series, the game itself is an action system, and each battle is carried out in a separate scene, and there are various plot fillings when the scene is passed.
But Hidetaka Miyazaki's Souls series, that is purely in terms of graphics and the game itself.
In this case, the structure of the original animation is not suitable.
If you want to do it, of course Senxia wants to do her best.
"Our game story should have a weak connection with animation. "The stories between the two sides are different stories under the same worldview system...... Well, it's the same concept as the "Tsukihime" and "Destiny Night" series. ”
Speaking of "Tsukihime", Mori Xia is angry.
The May line of Nasu Mushroom has not yet filled in the hole, and now more and more people regard the biography of Mori Xia as the official history of the May line, and they shamelessly want Sen Xia to "turn this part into a positive".
Tsk, there are such lazy ......
"I see, I see. Senxia's statement made Qianjia understand.
"But the conceptual design of the city, I think there can be ......," Miyazaki Hidetaka said suddenly, "I wonder if the two of you have heard of the mountain castle of a large oriental country next door?"
The mountain city in the Sichuan-Shu-Bayu region, or also known as Yucheng.
Of course Senxia knew.
He didn't just know, he had been.
And Qianjia still went with Senxia.
"Yes, what's wrong?" he asked.
"Last year, I went with the Takeuchi clan and the Nasu clan - Caifu. ”
What's the situation?
Hidetaka Miyazaki and these two goods also mixed together?
Hey?
What kind of butterfly effect is this?
It's really strange that these eight poles can't be beaten can still appear.
Ah, no, the point is...... These two goods actually traveled abroad last year?
Are they so laid-back?!
"And then?" while Sen Xia's mind was full of confusion, Qianjia spoke first.
"I think the city has a good sense of three-dimensionality, and the combination of the city and the mountains and rivers complements each other perfectly. If we really need a three-dimensional city, I think the design of that city is fantastic. Miyazaki Hidetaka's statement made Mori Xia nod his head.
The mountain city is indeed a very special city.
In the future, this city has indeed become a prototype and filming location for many people to create cyberpunk style cities.
Of course, the city is still very young when it has only been a municipality for a few years.
But that doesn't stop Mori from imagining here.
"If you use a similar city as a model, it would be very convenient to add some shrines or similar places. Mori Xia muttered.
The beginning of a story gradually took shape in his mind.
"In a city built on a hill, there has been a containment breach, SCP173...... Ah, sorry, cross-worded. I mean, on the top of the mountain are enshrined gods from ancient times. "However, one day, the gods turned into desolate spirits, and the entire city had to start a great evacuation and send sword envoys to crusade against ......."
Mmmmmmmm
Senxia thinks it's very good.
"But as an opening, it seems that it is still a little bit ......"
Qianjia agrees with the background, but she feels that this background seems a little too ordinary.
"The setting of a foreigner is normal. Mori Xia said, "It is precisely because the protagonist is an ordinary knife maker that the story will be interesting." ”
The protagonist is "mortal bones", and this kind of story may be quite fun to do.
"But as far as the player's sense of substitution is concerned, I think the identity of the protagonist is okay to make a little judgment, and it doesn't have to be completely obscure. Hidetaka Miyazaki thinks that the identity of the protagonist can be a little special, "She can be a sword maker, but maybe she can also be a little different from others......
"The main character is...... The shrine maiden of the Izumo region?" Mori Xia suddenly had a brain hole.
"Izumo region?"
Those who have played "Taiko Rishiden" may have an impression of the word "Izumo", because there is a singer in it called Izumo Akuni, who was a legendary figure in the Warring States period.
"Yes, the shrine maiden of the moon of the gods. ”
In this place of mud bombing, the month of October is also called "Kamino Moon".
Because at this time, all the gods will come together.
But there is one exception.
That's the Izumo region.
During this month, other places are called "Kami no Moon", but this place is the only place that is called "Kami Zai Tsuki" because the place where eight million gods come is Izumo.
Put "in that case...... I thought it would be more interesting if we set the prototype of the target city in this place. ”
The mountain castle borrows from the structure. But Hidetaka Miyazaki is talking about the geographical location here.
"Makes sense...... Senxia nodded.
As soon as Mori Xia finished saying "The Shrine Maiden of the God in the Moon", he felt uncomfortable, because there was another work called "The Shrine Maiden of the Divine Moonless......
As a result, as Sen Xia was talking here, he suddenly felt a little wrong.
But the explanation given by Hidetaka Miyazaki is quite good.
In the whole story, there is a close relationship between those "gods" and "desolate spirits", and in that case, it would be best to arrange Izumo as the stage for the story.
Of course, this does not refer to Izumo in the real world, but to make a combination of the mountain towns of a large eastern country next door, and they are their "children".
Well, no problem with the logic.
"In that case, I have an idea. Qianjia seemed to have an idea at this time, "Since all the sword envoys are sword users and are the 'shrine maidens' of the imperial sword, why don't you set the protagonist to be a sword envoy shrine maiden who worships unknown gods?"
As soon as Qianjia finished speaking, Sen Xia here suddenly had a sense of déjà vu again: "Bo Li Reimu?"
Yes, Hakurei Reimu.
In the Touhou series, the shrine maiden Reimu is dedicated to the nameless deity.
So as soon as Qianjia said it, Senxia had a sense of déjà vu.
But if you think about it, if you think about it, if Hakurei Reimu makes a cameo in the story of the sword envoy shrine maiden...... It's a mutation!
Senxia shook his head, throwing the strange thought aside.
Then he said, "ZUN-san will complain about us, right?"
If you don't know each other, it's okay, you can learn from it casually.
But ZUN is also an acquaintance of Senxia, and occasionally ZUN will invite Senxia to drink together.
Although Mori Xia didn't drink much, everyone had a good relationship after all.
It's okay to borrow from strangers, but from acquaintances...... That feels pretty subtle.
"The setting says that the desolate souls are all the products of the combination of Yugang's slag and negative divinity, right?"
While the two were discussing, Hidetaka Miyazaki here was watching the set.
The so-called jade steel is the raw material for forging the imperial sword, and it is also the core material in the story, if there is no jade steel, then the whole story will not happen.
He saw the setting on this, but he had his own ideas.
"In that case, why don't we set the identity of the protagonist as a sword envoy who has lost his divinity?" he said, "In the story, only a girl can become a sword envoy, which is similar to the witch in the real world. However, we use the opposite concept here, the protagonist is still a shrine maiden, but the deity she worships has disappeared......"
The same is true, but Hidetaka Miyazaki played the opposite, so it was very interesting.
"Sword Makes a Shrine Maiden" borrows some of the settings of a real shrine maiden.
It's just that in "The Sword Makes the Shrine Maiden", the shrine maiden does not worship a certain god, but the swords that are the incarnation of the godhead itself.
This is actually a real-world application.
Hidetaka Miyazaki's choice of angle is outstanding: "Before the story begins, these people's swords may have absorbed those negative divinities due to various events, or they encountered rust with steel, and they also corrupted along with it. After these events, their swords began to become infected......"
If the rust of the steel is not treated in time, then the rust will spread quickly.
Hidetaka Miyazaki borrowed the same intention.
"Not just the protagonist, but a group of people including the protagonist. Mori Xia said, "It may be that there are a group of such shrine maidens. ”
"Is that okay?" asked Qianjia.
"No problem. It does not violate the setting. Mori Xia wrote it down, and he was about to expand in this direction, "Maybe we can assume that these shrine maidens themselves don't have much power, but their knives can gain other people's abilities after cutting off other people's swords...... Well, let's see how Miyazaki is going to design the game. Let's move on to the next topic. ”
And after discussing this, it is the turn of the enemy.
"In our game, there are three types of enemies. The first is an ordinary desolate spirit, the second is a humanoid desolate spirit, and the third is the sword envoy itself. "Of course, the techniques of our sword masters are all based on the kendo techniques of the real world, and if you want to design this part, I suggest that it is best to find the specific situation in the real world." ”
There are three main types of enemies, and Mori Xia is thinking about how to design them at this time.
......
The stories of the East are all so-called "mutations", so Senxia played with his brain......
Hirasaka read the feeding was a big success, and everyone spat and left......
Tut.
The sword makes the shrine maiden New Year's Edo Kanami's shrine maiden costume new card, which is really amazing.
Two-in-one meow.
