A week later, the "Dark Souls" game project appeared in the development department of the [Mirror Flower Water Moon] game company, this game plan is only the first version, mainly for the heads of the game development departments to provide reference, only the game development team belonging to Yu Kamiya handed over the game engine to the [Evolution Water Moon] game company development department can officially produce the game.

In fact, many people in the game development department are wondering if the game development team behind Yu Kamiya can really make a game engine? The small game engine of card games such as "Ship Girl Collection" or "Valhalla" is good to say, and the game engine that can be developed on a scale comparable to "Modern Battlefield 4" is not a level at all, and simply put, the [Sword in the Stone] game studio that has the ability to develop the game "Modern Battlefield 4" may not be able to develop an excellent game engine, and "Modern Battlefield 4" still uses a high-end game engine on the market.

Yu Kamiya means that his game team can develop a game-specific engine, and this news is exciting enough, and many employees are speculating whether Yu Kamiya bought one of the several well-known game studios in Europe and the United States.

The game engine hasn't seen the real thing yet, and the content of the game plan of "Dark Souls" surprised all the members of the game development department, because the example that Yu Kamiya mentioned at the meeting was "Modern Battlefield 4", and after the content of the meeting was spread, it became that Yu Kamiya wanted to make an FPS game with a scale comparable to "Modern Battlefield 4", but the three conspicuous English letters of the RPG type game on the game plan submitted by Yu Kamiya made the game development department a little confused.

The JRPG genre is now well-known, barely alongside the popular games in the Zone 11 category, but no single player has ever combined a triple-A game with an RPG genre, both in Region 11 and around the world.

Not long after the game plan for Dark Souls was submitted, the senior management of the game development department of the game company spontaneously held a production meeting to summarize the content of the game plan.

When it comes to the Dark Souls game project, all game development departments feel like they are facing a hedgehog, and they can't help but feel powerless to start.

The director of the game planning put the game plan of "Dark Souls" on the table in the conference room, and the tone of his voice could not conceal the helplessness that he had expected: "RPG type game・・・Mr. Kamiya's idea is as unexpected as ever, I feel that the difficulty of game production has been improved, and we basically have no experience in making RPG games, let alone 3A level, 3A level RPG games... Ah, dare to ask everyone here have any relevant impressions in their minds? ”

The person in charge of the production department shrugged his shoulders, but said his thoughts with a look of amazement: "This is the game project decided by Mr. Kamiya, and so far we have to execute it." However, Mr. Kamiya doesn't seem to have thought about it, and the gameplay system designed by the project is comparable to that of Valhalla. ”

The director of the art department nodded and said: "Art style is a big problem, the reference model given by Mr. Kamiya is some messy things, not that Mr. Kamiya's painting is a problem, it's that Mr. Kamiya's three-view style of painting monsters or scenes is too unique, how to say it, it's probably like the British Victorian period combined with the medieval style, and there is a bit of Gothic decay." ”

The person in charge of the 3D department has a sad face: "Judging from the game planning, the game style is definitely biased towards Europe and the United States, and I don't know if it will be popular in Japan." ”

"I think it's funny, we can't make up our minds until the game is made, and the game engine isn't finished."

The director of the production department looked at the person in charge of the 3D department and reminded, "By the way, Mr. Kamiya also sent a storyboard of the game trailer, so please start working on the 3D department." ”

"Yes, there's nothing to do anyway, but in terms of 3D animation, it's clear that [Edge's Sky] has better technology, wouldn't it be nice to be in charge over there." The person in charge of the 3D department said indifferently, and the other people at the meeting saw a look of joy on his face, and they were probably also excited that the 3D department was about to be officially put into production. Usually, other people in charge have heard from him how amazing and powerful the software belonging to the company is, and now it can finally show its strength when it is officially put into production.

The fact that the game planning of "Dark Souls" has no idea where to start does not mean that the game development department is not looking forward to making this game, many of them are interested in the high benefits of [Mirror Flowers] and joined, and they have long felt constrained because they can't play their abilities, and the quality of "Ship Girl Collection" and "Valhalla" games are only card games.

The meeting around the planning of the Dark Souls game lasted all morning, and they were all in charge of game development, so at most they just complained, and there was no other game decision, all they had to do was prepare in advance according to Yuu Kamiya's request. In addition to being responsible for the operation of the "Valhalla" game, she is now also taking care of the work of the personnel department, and it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to produce a triple-A game masterpiece.

As a result of the meeting on the game planning for Dark Souls, the type of talent to be recruited was determined, and Suwon Raija was finally able to expand the scale of the game development department to about the same size as the veteran Frontier game company

A week ago, the meeting of the abbot of Yuu Kamiya ended, and Mizuhara Laizi instructed Kamihara Yu to release the recruitment announcement of the [Mirror Flower Water Moon] game company on the same day, [Mirror Flower Water Moon] game company is now a well-known game company in the industry, and the scale is not too large, with the game "Valhalla", it has become the game company with the highest market value in the game industry in the 11th district, and it deserves to be a so-called well-known enterprise.

Nowadays, the social economy of the 11th district is solidified, and the young people who have graduated from the university can work in large enterprises itself in the 11th district is basically equivalent to the glory of the ancestors, not to mention that [Mirror Flower Water Moon] and [Margin of Space] are the same high-welfare enterprises, all kinds of factors affect the recruitment advertisement on the afternoon There are no less than three digits of job seekers to put their resumes, [Mirror Flower Water Month] The news of a large number of recruitment talents is spreading in the industry.

Now, a week has passed, and there are thousands of resumes of job seekers simply sorted out by the personnel department, and it is not until today that the "Dark Souls" game project is planned to be completed, and Suwon Laizi can start to officially review the backlog of resumes.

・・・・・・

Late at night, only the floor of the entire office building where Suwon Laizi is located is still brightly lit, she has been reviewing the resumes of job seekers for two days in a row, Yu Kamiya has given her a month to prepare, and no matter how capable she is to have connections, she is only forced to be anxious.

"Tuk-tuk."

Hearing the knock on the door, Suwon Lailaizi, who was concentrating on flipping through the resumes of job seekers, said without raising his head, "Come in." ”

The wooden door of the office was gently opened, and Shenmu Yu leaned out of the head with the bag and saw that Mizuhara Lai-ko was still looking at the resume, and said distressedly when he walked in: "Take a break, there will be an interview tomorrow, the formal interview is much more important than reading the resume information, if the president of Suwon didn't wake up at that time, even I was a little worried about the future of our company." ”

"Now our company is in urgent need of talents who can be put into use, so the experience of job seekers is more important, and those who have relevant experience can better integrate into our company's environment, and the interview process is only the last review method," said Suwon Laizi calmly. ”

"President Suwon, can you fill your stomach by looking at your resume?"

Hearing this, Suwon Lailaizi was finally willing to deal with Shenmu Yu, thought about it and said seriously: "Then there is no way." ”

Shenmu You's little face flashed with a smile and lifted the bag in his hand: "It just so happens that I have a hot bento in my hand." ”

Suhara Lailaizi put down the resume in his hand and rubbed his eyebrows tiredly: "Yes~ Yes, what time is it." ”

"At 10:12, this is the milk you want to be hot, and the bento has been heated in the microwave just now, please use it." Yu Kamiki took out the food bought from the supermarket one by one from the bag.

Mizuhara Laiko pretended to be strange, put her hands on the table to support her chin, looked at Kamiki Yuyu and said to herself, "It's really strange, I remember that I obviously wanted black coffee." ”

Kamiki Yu smiled at her, "Is that so, it must be that President Suwon is so tired that he forgot what he wanted to drink." ”

"No, no, no~ I always like to drink coffee, and I can't want to drink milk no matter how I say it."

Shenmu Yu crossed his waist and snorted dishappily: "This is the end of the work, this time I will drive, so there is only the option of hot milk." ”

Mizuhara Laizi stood up and fell on the sofa in the office not far away with her willow waist in her arms amid the exclamation of Yuu Kamiki, and quipped with interest: "Oh? When you, the assistant, dare to disobey the president's orders, it seems that you still need to be educated. ”

Kamiki Yu leaned down on the sofa, looking into the eyes of Mizuhara Raiko and chuckling: "Please President Mizuhara must forgive me, no matter what punishment I am willing." ”

After some frolicking, the floor where the last light of the game company quietly dimmed.

・・・・・・

The number of resumes received by the game company is about 1,000, and less than one-tenth of them are qualified, although not everything needs to be personally presented by the president of the company, Suwon Lailaizi, but now talent assessment is the top priority, and there is no room for sloppiness. The next day, she was present for the job interview session almost all day, and screened the candidates again based on the reports submitted by the game development departments.

However, the interview session was not even more satisfying to Mizuhara Laizi, most of the qualified candidates on the resumes of these job applicants had actually participated in game development, but the games they developed or produced probably did not match the "Dark Souls" eight poles that Yuu Kamiya wanted to make. Of course, it is not completely unrewarding, and having rich experience in game production means that even if you have not developed a triple-A game, you can integrate well into the current company environment, and you can quickly get started with various software unique to the company, which is basically enough.

The recruitment lasted for more than half a month, and the fresh blood flowed into the game company, and the relevant game development department was put into production at the same time as the recruitment. Since Yu Kamiya completed the first game plan of "Dark Souls", after more than half a month, the perfect game plan, art design plan, and game engine have been completed one after another.

The emergence of the game engine has given all members of the game development department a shot in the arm, the game engine is the most suitable for the production of "Dark Souls" according to the Win7 system of this world [Matrix Space], and the demonstration stage alone has amazed some game developers.

During this period, the 3D department of the [Mirror Flower Water Moon] game company, which used the internal software of the 3D department of the [Edge] animation production company, finally completed the first promotional CG of "Dark Souls" under the guidance of Yu Kamiya, and the overall style and style is the deluxe enhanced and extended version of the promotional CG of the "Dark Souls" generation. "Dark Souls" produced by Yu Kamiya is a comprehensive version of the entire series of "Dark Souls" in the previous world, but the plot is improved and optimized based on one generation, adding more information, expanding the backstory to be more grandiose, and at the same time making the character portrayal fuller.

The 3D department of [Mirror Flower Water Moon] is still very young, and there is not much experience in actual CG production, and this production of "Dark Souls" promotional CG gave Kamiya Yu a headache, almost every step needs to be confirmed by him personally, and the details have been changed again and again, so that he can find the feeling that the [Edge-no-Kong] animation production company has not matured to produce "Magical Girl Naye".

The completion of the CG promotion of "Dark Souls" is also very important to the company, and the art department can use the CG style as a reference to improve the game's art design.

At the art level, the actual Kamiya Yu did not copy too much of the "Dark Souls: Nostalgic Edition" that was close to perfection in the previous world, the scale is too big to be busy, Kamiya Yu is mainly responsible for giving three views and guidance on key things, and the details and deficiencies need to be completed by the art department itself, otherwise the [Mirror Flower Water Moon] Art Department will have no meaning of existence.

The game company has recently attracted the attention of the game industry, and no matter how much it is being discussed, the [Mirror Flower and Water Moon] game company is recruiting so many people at once, according to the recruitment requirements, anyone with game production experience can guess that the [Mirror Flower and Water Moon] game company should be planning to make a large-scale game, as for how large the game is, there are different opinions, and the few points that can be determined are that it must definitely exceed the "Ship Girl Collection" and "Valhalla", and it is no longer a card game.

After the completion of the game promotion CG, the game being produced by the game company has finally revealed the tip of the iceberg.
