Chapter 493: CG and Games

Yu Kamiya has always liked to wait.,The day after the promotional CG of "Dark Souls" was completed, it was officially announced to the public after making sure that there was no omission, and the release time of the game was initially set to be a year after the release of the promotional CG. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info A year to produce a super 3A level game,Will it be due to the lack of production deadline that will lead to skipping tickets Kamiya Yu himself is not at the bottom of his own psychology,"Dark Souls" is produced on the basis of a super 3A level masterpiece,Even if he provides the completion of the game development engine,Art direction、Planning advice and other work,The amount of work still puts the [Mirror Flowers] game company without relevant experience under great pressure.

Another mention is that the sound department belonging to [Yuanzhikong] will definitely not be able to squeeze into such a big project under the condition of participating in the production of "Rebellious Lelouch" and "Five Centimeters per Second", and Yu Kamiya provided the score for Suhara Laizi to find a reliable music company in the industry to record.

The 3D department of the game company is not short of technology or manpower, so you can ensure the quality of the promotional CG to the greatest extent, and Yu Kamiya's requirements for the promotional CG picture do not need to be comparable to reality, but to ensure that the CG's unique art style and impressive characteristics belong to the world of "Dark Souls", to achieve the best visual effects.

Promotional CG is an enhanced version of the opening CG of the previous world "Dark Souls" 1st generation, mainly to introduce the opening of the game and the unique world view, the eternal gray fog world ignites the flames of chaos, and all the differences in the world are born because of this, and the four kings share the soul of the king.

The information that can be conveyed by the promotional CG is limited, at best, it can only be used as a game gimmick, so the most important thing in the promotional CG is the visual effect, which can arouse the curiosity and interest of the player, so even if the promotional CG is successful, the promotional CG of "Dark Souls" can undoubtedly do this, after the official website of the game announced the promotional CG of "Dark Souls", the vast majority of gamers in the 11 districts who have seen the promotional CG of this game feel incredible, When did a game production company in your country have the ability to produce CG at this level?

The promotional CG quality and style of "Dark Souls" are too unique, more than one level better than the so-called 3A-level game masterpiece promotional video in Europe and the United States, and then the release of this game promotional video still belongs to a game company in the 11th district that is not very famous, and it is not very famous This is for the whole world, "The Ship Girl Collection" and "Valhalla" are both local games in the 11th region, and the influence in the game industry in the world is at best plus the operation in China.

Propaganda CG first caused a sensation in the game industry in the 11th district,The game in the 11th district has always given people a sense of small family,Most of the game style is biased towards cartoons,In this way, the environment appears "Dark Souls" This kind of high-quality propaganda CG is as conspicuous as the sudden appearance of a skyscraper in the slum, and this game publicity CG is still released by the [Mirror Flower Water Moon] game company, contact the news of a large number of recruitment technicians some time ago, overnight Twitter and major game communities, 2ch forums and other places, Gamers in Zone 11 frantically discussed the content of the game's promotional CG, marveling at the quality of the game's CG and worrying about what the game itself would be.

"Dark Souls" promotional CG art style, game quality itself, game type, etc. have been hotly discussed by players in District 11, "Dark Souls" promotional CG is biased towards European and American fantasy stories, even the dubbing is in English, and it is even more difficult for players in District 11 to define this game specifically.

Just a game promotional CG is sought after by players It seems to be a slightly exaggerated thing, in fact, the environment is replaced by China, for example, in the last world, a game company in China released a promotional CG quality in the same period than the "Final Fantasy" series, then it is estimated that the player community in China will appear in a fryer state that night, and the next day will start nationwide milk, and anyone will feel bad when they see the relevant foreign industries flourishing in their own country but are depressed.

The sudden action of the game company startled the players in the 11th district, and the promotional CG was uploaded to the European and American [fake book] game video area not long after, and won the first place in the popularity ranking of the day at a very fast speed, compared to the players in the 11th district, European and American players obviously reacted more to this promotional CG! It's better to say that the game promotion CG is indeed more in line with the aesthetics of European and American players.

・・・・・・

"Darksoul, a game I've never heard of."

Nit was curious to see the first place on the popularity list of the day on the video game division, usually the game classification is occupied by the game guides or entertainment videos of major anchors, and now the first place on the popularity list of the day is suddenly won by an unknown game publicity CG, is it a new game masterpiece from a well-known company?

After glancing at the basic information of the video, he found that this game promotional video is indeed very popular, and he controlled the mouse to click into the video playback page, and clicked to play it with great interest.

As the solemn music sounded, the gray fog of the world slowly dissipated, and what met Nit's eyes was a messy land, bottomless ravines crisscrossed and intertwined, and only sand and rocks could not see even a trace of greenery on the ground, and as the line of sight quickly passed through the towering stone pillars that stood and crossed the decaying world, it finally saw the living thing, it had a huge body, lying quietly on the ground like a huge rock, only from a high altitude can you overlook this hideous and terrifying body, and the wings spread are enough to cover the sky and the sun, The lizard-like mouth is covered with layers of sharp fangs.

The old voice slowly tells the story of ancient times.

"In ancient times, the world had not yet divided, and the land was shrouded in a thick fog, surrounded by gray rocks, towering trees, and immortal ancient dragons."

"But one day the first flame of the world was lit, and all the differences were born from it."

The camera goes deep into the abyss, where fire is born where it should have fallen into the dark abyss, as if purgatory gave the world the only light.

"Cold and heat, life and death, light and darkness・・・・・・"

"After that, there were species born out of darkness that were lured by the flames and found the king's soul around the fire."

In purgatory, close to the fire, new creatures are born, and like newborns, they struggle to rise from the darkness and approach the burning flame frontier.

"The original deceased, NEET"

The huge body is all composed of skeletons, and it continues to escape the rotten aura of the dead, and all the miasma around it dissipates under the reflection of the firelight, revealing a body that seems to be synonymous with death, and the rotten bones are combined together, and there is no trace of the breath of the living, and the breath of the dead that cannot be dispersed on its body emits a terrible wail all the time.

"The Witch of Izaris and the Daughter of Chaos"

Unable to see her face under the old black robes, she raised her scarred hands to hold the faint flame, and beside her there were seven similarly dressed witches standing with their staffs as if performing some strange ritual.

"Gwen, King of the Sun, and his knights."

The flames burned, and in front of the flames was a burly old man holding a giant sword, with frosty white sideburns and beard, and his eyes were closed tightly, but there was a majesty that was not angry, and behind him, the heroic knights covered in black armor stood in a neat formation, and the metallic luster of the armor became more and more cold and piercing under the firelight.

"Finally, there are no dwarves that no one has ever seen."

The weak dwarves prostrate themselves with supreme treasures.

・・・・・・

"They gain the power of the king and challenge the ancient dragons."

The black knight raised the sharp long sword in his hand, bright red blood dripped down the blade, and the huge ancient dragon not far away felt the threat and roared in the sky, and the sound penetrated the sky to disperse all the gray mist.

"Gwen's thunder pierced through the rocky scale armor of the ancient dragon."

The thunder flickered, and the king of the sun, Gwen, who was wearing a crown on his head, grabbed the thunder with his right hand and threw it out, and the violent thunder power tore through the space and instantly pierced the ancient dragon flying in the distance, and all the sun knights behind him also threw out the thunder spear of their fingers, and the entire sky was filled with thunder, and when the thunder resounded throughout the world, the ancient dragons fell one after another.

"The witch's flames form a storm."

The witch held the crimson fireball in both hands, and when she raised the fireball above her head, it instantly turned into a small sun and exploded, overwhelming the earth with flames, and countless ancient dragons were wiped out in the flame storm.

"Nit frees the miasma of death."

The skeleton's body emitted a gray miasma, and wherever the miasma went, the huge cologne fossilized into debris.

"The white dragon Sith without scales betrayed the ancient dragon, causing the ancient dragon to retreat."

With a sharp roar, the scaleless white dragon held the head of an ancient dragon in its hand and roared upward, it clenched the huge ancient dragon's head hard to vent its anger, and its claws were stained red with bright red blood. Beneath it, the corpses of the ancient dragons piled up in a mountain, and the blood pooled into rivers that filled the cracks in the surrounding abyss.

"The age of fire has begun."

The music flattened, the gray world disappeared, and the land appeared with a magnificent and huge complex of buildings, completely different from the decaying and barren world just now.

"But the time will come when the fire will be extinguished, and then the world will return to darkness."

"Now, the fire will be extinguished."

"Light cannot continue to shine on the world, and the darkness of the night will continue indefinitely."

"The cursed Ring of Darkness is beginning to appear."

In the cemetery where the corpses lay on the ground, a handsome woman knelt in front of the corpse and stretched out her hands to grasp the drifting spark, and in front of her lay a knight in armor, his head shriveled and thin, shaped like a dry corpse.

・・・・・・・

Nit stared at this game promotional CG with wide eyes throughout the whole process, he was just bored and wandered around the game classification video area, but he didn't expect to see such a surprising game promotional CG, CG quality is unprecedentedly high, making him wonder if he is behind the times, when the game developed so much, and what interests him more is the world described in the CG and the skeleton monster with the same name as him.

He is not an avid player, but as an ordinary player, he has taken a great interest in the promotional CG of this game called "Dark Souls".

"That's good~!"

After the promotional CG was played, Nit excitedly controlled the mouse to slide down to the comment area to see which game company produced this game masterpiece and when it was released.

The comment section was as lively as he imagined, but there was some surprising content in addition to the discussion of the promotional CG.

For example, this game promotional CG is actually from Japan, and the game company belongs to the obscure level, can any small workshop produce such a good game promotional CG?

Of course, Nit didn't believe it

"I didn't expect it to be a game promotional CG produced by an Asian game company, and the style is too fantastical."

Nit sighed and continued to flip through the reviews, quickly finding the information he was looking for.

CG publisher is [Mirror Flower Water Moon] game company, which has only produced and operated a total of two games before, "Ship Girl Collection" and "Valhalla Throne", both of which are typical Japanese card games, and Nite is not familiar with them. Many players in the reviews recognized the quality of these two games as Japanese card games, but they were very skeptical about the promotional CG.

Not for anything else,This [Mirror Flower Water Moon] game company has a cooperative relationship with the [Edge of the Sky] animation production company, which means that the game promotion CG is likely to be handed over to the [Edge of the Sky] animation production company to produce, at present, the [Edge of the Sky] animation production company has a very high level of animation production, and the animation supervisor is still the world's famous Kamiya Yu.

So the interesting thing is here, the game promotion CG is so good, can the game really reach the corresponding level?

"Oh, before you get into the matter, let me tell you that the [Mirror Flower and Water Moon] game company has only produced two Japanese card games. - Keith Bitt. ”

"The CG is really good for the promotion, and I hope the quality of the game will keep up. - Maya. ”

"Should it be an adventure game? Finally not a damn FPS. - Karen Moore"

"There are many examples of CG with heart and game with feet. ―Paul Cavendish

"Damn, I really hope this game company won't disappoint me, but no matter how I look at the reviews, they say that the reviews are one-sided and bad. - The girl with the bouquet of flowers. ”

"A company without any experience in game production suddenly launched a big-budget game, and the game was launched about a year later, and according to my understanding, this game company only launched a new game in January, ah~ What a tight production time, well, I can only say that the expectations have dropped a lot. - Sean. ”

"The CG quality of [Sword in the Stone] production should really be learned from this company. - Thomas. ”

The evaluation of the promotional CG is very high, but most of the audience has an unreliable sense of the quality of the game itself, which belongs to a Japanese game production company, and in addition to the development of two popular card collection games, there is no experience in developing similar games, compared to the current European and American game industry has become an industrial chain environment, there will not be too many advantages.

In the final analysis, it has not yet formed a word of mouth.

Nit's enthusiasm was also overshadowed by these comments, and after thinking about it, he typed and said, "At least the promotional CG gave us a big surprise, and I think this promotional CG is worth waiting for a year." - Nits. ”
