"Oh, I've made a demo, yes, yes. ”

Early the next morning, after sending Shion to school, Mori Xia came to the game department.

Here is the internal demo version of "Sword Messenger Shrine Maiden" already done.

"In this game, players have a total of three energy bars. The first is the player's health bar, if it is broken by the enemy, we have more health, and the source of this health is the player's second life......"

Generally speaking, games of this era usually only have a "second life" design on arcade machines.

However, having this ability in "Sword Messenger Witch" is not too popular.

Under Miyazaki's instructions, Mori Xia fought with Kanami Eto in front of him, and deliberately let the other party kill him.

And at the moment when Senxia was killed, a QTE appeared on the player's body, and the QTE was very simple, as long as there was a space.

Senxia pressed the spacebar, and it was at this moment that Senxia noticed a tone similar to broken glass appeared on his character.

Then, Senxia's character moves rapidly behind him and returns to full health, but at this time, the player's "write" will be consumed by one square. In arcade and other playthrough games, this means that "one life is missing".

Although it is only a half-finished product, the special effects of this slow-motion are quite gorgeous. Even Senxia was a little shocked.

"This two-dimensional style hard-core sword game is really good. Even compared to animation, the gap is not very big. ”

Chika is also here.

After seeing the initial demonstration, Qianjia expressed her appreciation for the system.

Maybe in terms of "moves", the game is not as clever as the animation, but to say that this sword and sword are quite flavorful, and the roots of the "hardcore" are retained.

The first bar is the stamina bar, the second is the health bar, and the third bar is the parry bar.

"The parry bar is a very special energy bar. If the player fills the enemy's parry, the enemy will reveal a flaw, at which point the player can execute the enemy. In this state, the enemy's HP is no longer important. In our design, parrying at high levels is more beneficial than directly reducing the enemy's HP with an attack. Miyazaki was explaining.

"Why is it a high-level time?" asked Qianjia.

"That's right. Miyazaki explained, "The frequency of attacks is not too high for low-level enemies, and because of the mechanics, some enemies don't have parry bar designs. At this time, the parry bar doesn't make any sense, so it is necessary to have a blood bar and a parry bar in parallel. ”

The parry bar is mainly carried out when facing the "knife fight". But if the enemy attack is weaker, there is no need for it, and the player also has a variety of their own playstyle, and this design of the parry bar is actually a design to encourage the player to use this mechanic.

"The design of this desolate soul is also good. ”

Compared with what Ichiro Kuroshima has seen before, this version for Mori Xia has added a part of confrontation with monsters.

The Aragans are also divided into many types in "Sword Messenger Shrine Maiden", some of which are humanoid and some of which are beasts.

In the anime, there is also a battle with the Aragaric, but it is actually relatively rare, but in the game, this part was developed in the place where the animation was less excavated.

"Well, it feels okay. ”

Aragath is a four-legged monster that resembles a lion. It looks a little close to the monster hunter's monster.

However, after actually starting to fight, Mori Xia realized that it was just his own illusion, and although the first impression was very similar, when the confrontation really began, it was completely different.

The kind of battle between the two sides can be said to be bloody and bloody, and one of the manifestations is that the pace of the battle is much higher than that of "Monster Hunter".

In this respect, the version of the game is a very powerful addition to the current animation.

After all, if you have to say it, the sword envoy witches fought in the first place to face these desolate spirits.

After seeing this demo, Mori Xia expressed his appreciation and expressed great anticipation for the game.

"If I look at it this way, I suddenly feel that Black Rock Shooter can also be gamified. ”

And after Hidetaka Miyazaki left, Chika suddenly thought of another work.

That's the finished "Black Rock Shooter".

The Black Rock Shooter has finished playing, but the popularity of this character is still high.

Of course, this is not only the relationship between animation and secondary creation, this character even landed in "Hero Tracks" and exists as an ADC. In the game, the Black Rock Shooter has also become the character with the highest player selection rate. It's just that there are more people playing, and new problems have arisen, because there are many players with different levels from high to low, plus newcomers like to pretend to be cool, which leads to the role of Black Rock Shooter, in "Hero Track", while becoming the most popular character among players, he is also the most scolded.

Chika hadn't thought of it before, but after seeing the gorgeous battle of "Sword Messenger Shrine Maiden", she immediately realized that "Black Rock Shooter" itself seemed to be able to support a game.

But after thinking about it, Sen Xia shook his head: "The world view of the Black Rock Shooter is not big, and if you want to do it, there is a high probability that it can only be made into a linear flow story." I don't think that's the case with that kind of fun. ”

Unlike "The Sword Makes the Witch", the world of the Sword Makes the Witch is a very wide world, but the world of "Black Rock Shooter" is more limited, unless the stage design can be expanded.

"First out of the second season of the anime?" Chika thought.

"It's not bad, maybe. "Mori Xia felt that if he wanted to expand, he really needed new animations......

"Speaking of which, how is Shiyin?"

And just when Senxia was thinking about whether there was really going to be a second season of Black Rock, Qianjia suddenly came to a cold sentence.

When Senxia heard this, his brain suddenly fell into a blank state.

It wasn't until he had been shaken by Qianjia for a while that Sen Xia came back from this stunned state of mind.

"I think Shiyin should be pretty good. When you went out with me yesterday, you were quite happy. But she guessed it might be your idea. ”

Yesterday was actually good. It's just that the atmosphere on the street at that time was a little subtle, and the subsequent development turned out to be a little strange.

"By the way, you just talked about making a game for Black Rock Shooter, and I have some new ideas. ”

Mori Xia felt forced to pull the topic back.

"New ideas?"

"Yes, yes," Mori Xia immediately said his thoughts as if pouring beans, "When I first tried the game, one of the things that impressed me the most was the bullet time shown by the system called 'Write' in the game. ”

Bullet Time is most famous for the scene in the movie "The Matrix", and the so-called "bullet time" can be said to come from here.

Among the games, the more famous games with "bullet time" applications are "Max Payne" and "Bayonetta".

But the system that Senxia said seems to be slightly different from the traditional sense.

"The surrounding scene is close to stagnation, at this time, only the player can move at high speed in the scene, in this gap between time and space, we can let the player slam through the enemy and ignite the soul of action!"

Although some of the content is temporary, in general, the idea has existed in Senxia's notebook for a long time......

"It's kind of interesting. Qianjia agreed, "But this system is not easy to design." ”

"Ah, there will be more run-in time in the early stage. But it doesn't matter, when "Sword Messenger Shrine Maiden" is ready, we will transfer the production team to make this game. ”

"Hmm. ”

Qianjia agreed.

However, there is one thing she cares about.

It's not that the gameplay proposed by Senxia is not good, but that Senxia is a little out of the ordinary.

Because on weekdays, Senxia is actually closer to the story-driven genre.

In other words, Senxia will come up with a story first, and then consider what type to use to present the story. And even when it comes to gameplay, Senxia usually gives a background and story. Even Smash Bros. Smash Bros. "Hero's Tracks" has its own worldview and original characters.

But from the beginning, Mori Xia just talked about "playing......

"It's Christmas soon. Qianjia looked out the window.

"yes. "Christmas is also the birthday of Mori Xia and Xue Nai, and Mori Xia still has a deep impression of this day.

"After Christmas, it's winter CM. ”

"Yes. ”

"When it's time for the winter CM, let's call Shiyin together. ”

Mori Xia almost fell off her chair.

He steadied himself, and then he saw Qianjia staring at him.

Senxia was uncomfortable.

"Defeated to you. However, the first to give up was actually Qianjia herself.

"Uh...... I'm sorry. ”

All in all, apologize first......

"You apologize for what you do, you don't seem to have done anything wrong. ”

Senxia couldn't speak.

Qianjia thought about it, and suddenly showed a wicked smile: "Ah, by the way, I have a good idea." ”

Qianjia's good idea is definitely not a "good idea".

But Senxia, who is a little short of breath, looks a little helpless at this moment.

"Alright, let's get back to business. This time, Qianjia took the initiative to pull the topic back.

"Ahh ”

Qianjia's sudden jump to the topic made Senxia a little uncomfortable.

"Are you going to develop a new action game, for the handheld, or for the console?" asked Qianjia.

- I just said that, and I didn't really think about it that much at all.

Mori Xia couldn't say this.

"Actually, I wanted to develop for the handheld. With soft graphics and a handheld screen, the game may look good. The volume of "Sword Witch" is too large to fit on the handheld, and I think there can be a lightweight work on the handheld. ”

The engines used in "Sword Witch" are all the latest, and even the dual-core processor can be full, and on a handheld platform with limited performance, if this game is insisted on, I am afraid it will face various problems.

First of all, in order to ensure capacity, the size of the game needs to be reduced, which makes the game's textures and textures coarse.

Secondly, in order to ensure the stability of the game, then the game frame lock is a must, but if the frame rate is too low, the effect and experience will be unsatisfactory. The combat itself in "Monster Hunter" is slow-paced, and it is relatively easy to deal with this situation, but "Sword Messenger Shrine Maiden" has no choice.

But if you want to talk about the console platform, this is not good, because although the performance of the console platform is okay. But since there is "Sword Messenger Witch", why do you want to fight with yourself?

Mori Xia gradually realized that he seemed to have dug a big hole for himself.

But fortunately, Sen Xia has a lot of works that he has seen in his mind, and these works have a certain reference value.

"But there's always a sense of good and bad......"

Dig a hole for yourself, and then you have to fill the hole for yourself?

Well...... No!

I'm going to find someone to shake the pot!

Sen Xia rolled his eyes, and immediately said, "So for this game, I plan to test the waters with small and medium-sized volumes first...... Well, let's make a fighting game with the FATE series first!"

Let's pull the fish-touching mushrooms into the water first.

Anyway, I'll help you animate "Tsukihime", and it's going to be broadcast soon, so you can do me a little favor, won't you?

In another world line, "Tsukihime" has a fanwork called "Mazuki Tan Tsukihime" - because readers refuse to admit that this work is an animated version of "Tsukihime" because it is too bad.

But in this world line, there are not so many things, because in this world line, there is Mori Xia's Musashino.

"Oh, that's. Not bad. Qianjia also thinks it's quite reliable.

Mori Xia breathed a sigh of relief and passed the test in a fool's way.

Although FATE has nothing to do with bullet time, the performance technique can be adjusted, so it's a big deal to fool around with reasons like "I have a new idea".

And in fact, Senxia does have a lot of good ideas in his mind.

If the mushrooms can't work, it's better to find the old void.

"But with all that said, it's all about the future," Mori said, "and I'm going to work on online games next." Wait a while, wait for the next generation of handhelds...... No, when the time comes, when the mobile terminal can be developed, we will adjust the strategy. ”

Qianjia nodded.

Animic's pace of continued expansion has come to an end, and if it continues to develop, it will inevitably go to other fields, but most of the cake has been divided, and online games are currently the largest blue ocean market.

"But as you said, it's all in the future. If you want to talk closer...... Why don't we talk about Shiyin?"

Qianjia smiled kindly......

Senxia was suffocating at this point - why did this topic go back to it?

......

In the past two days, he was tortured to death by kidney stones, and he couldn't directly rubble because of inflammation...... Orz

In addition, there may be women's clothing content in the next chapter, so let's remind you first.
