Chapter 9: My Own Role

After Kawa Kamiki also learned that his role tricks had been determined, he was indeed a little disappointed, but at the same time, he also had a little more affection for this production company.

Although this matter did not go his way, he did not feel that there was anything wrong with it.

If you think about it, isn't this the same as war?

Indeed, if there is any objection to the decision-making of the command, you can make suggestions or opinions to them, and before the big war, you can also propose your own tactical strategy, so as to form a situation in which a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend.

But! The command must not take the word of these guys who have never been commanders casually. A command with soft ears and soft roots who will follow the study as soon as he says that he will definitely have no future. If you happen to think the same, then forget it, if it's different, this kind of thing, the command must also have its own mature ideas.

After all, those who make suggestions are basically not military strategists, from a combat point of view, they are experts, from a tactical point of view, they are also elites, but from a strategic point of view, it is not necessarily.

In the same way, to apply to the current situation: in the field of game production, Kawajin is a layman in the absolute sense, and people give themselves the right to think and make proposals, but they do not promise to adopt them, and this business-like attitude makes Kawajin very satisfied. At least it's not the kind of "ouch, this person is a big man in LV5, you have to flatter him first, compromise the principle for him, and finally improve your favorability" or something like that.

By the way, the core positioning of the character plan proposed by the production company is "a decent character that is easy to use".

What does it mean to be easy to get started?

To put it simply, it is a [powerful] character. Even people who have not been exposed to fighting games can feel the powerful characters.

For example, in a game where everyone only has 10 attacks and 10 defenses, there is a character who has 50 attacks and 50 defenses, which is easy to learn. Even if the operation is not good, it can make up for the technical gap with powerful data.

Although the examples are exaggerated, this is actually the truth.

What characters are easy to pick up in fighting games?

BOSS CHARACTERS.

Many fighting games use bosses. Either it is debugged with a password, or it needs to be unlocked after a level. The performance of the boss character must be: relatively high attack, relatively good skill performance, and relatively simple moves.

For novices, you can press it casually to make a move, and the attack and defense of the trick and the usage are better, and the damage judgment is large, and it is easy to fight.

Of course, this kind of boss is also a headache as an enemy, so there is another problem with this kind of boss, that is, the [flaw] is very big. It's also easy for experts to crack.

This makes this kind of character very popular.

The newcomer likes to use it because he is strong.

The master also likes to use it, because he knows what the flaws of this character are and how to prevent them.

By the way, there's also an easy-to-use criterion, which is the one that most people choose.

And that's—

Appearance.

If you don't believe it, just go to the statistics, as long as it is in your own home, not in public, when you play fighting games by yourself, men like to choose female characters, especially beautiful female characters. Especially the female characters with hot bodies and scantily clad clothes. Especially, there are also a little special class attributes, such as ninja, such as samurai, such as teacher, and so on.

There are also handsome male characters, characters who use handsome weapons, and so on.

In other words, in addition to performance, novice gamers are generally keen to use good-looking characters.

Tsk, so, this society with poor looks is really strict. This is true not only in reality, but also in virtuality.

The performance indicators given by the official Kawajin are [comprehensive skills, medium and upper performance, simple moves, relatively, small flaws, and more beneficial to masters].

Because Kawajin can operate both gases and liquids at the same time, the attack mode is much more handsome.

For example, he has the ability to create a storm blade in front of him with a wave of his hand.

If you change the attack button of this skill, it will become an attack ability that projects fluid threads.

One is close and the other is long.

It has the ability to create liquid balls around it and shoot something like a laser, which can attack enemies directly in front of it and diagonally 45° depending on the button. This is the anti-air skill.

There are also skills such as lunge jumping punches, over-the-shoulder falls, tornadoes, etc., and the list of special moves is quite rich.

There aren't many super special moves, but they're quite flashy and useful.

There is a skill that allows you to enter the state of dominance for 5 seconds. What is a hegemonic body? It's that the enemy hits you, although it will lose blood, but your movements will not be blocked, and you can continue to attack against the enemy's attack, which sounds like a strong stroke. This is a skill derived from [Nitrogen Armor].

Then there's the combo attack, where after a quick ten attacks, create a tornado of the wind, go up and bite the enemy, blow it into the sky, and then attack with a water laser when he falls.

Chuan Shen's blood boiled just by listening to it, and he didn't need to be urged by the game company, and he immediately wanted to start recording the action.

This is a relief for the people at the game company.

Although the employees of this kind of company have long been accustomed to working overtime, everyone wants to work less overtime. Although there is overtime pay, they would rather give the company a little money and go back early to rest, after all, they are tired after a day.

The current situation is that there is definitely no escape, so it is better to end it quickly. They have seen some famous characters who do 3D collection, most of them think very highly of themselves, and there are a lot of bad things, especially at night, although they will stay and work overtime, but they are extremely uncooperative. I only think about my own things, and my efficiency is quite low. The fact that Kawajin was able to cooperate with them like this gave them a little hope of returning home early. After all, overtime pay will not change because of overtime hours, and the less overtime hours, the more overtime pay will become.

Action recording is also fast.

After all, Kawajin is a soldier, and discipline aside, this person's body is very obedient. What actions he wants to make, they are basically standard, handsome, and practical movements.

Even the person in charge and the action director were dumbfounded. After all, these superpowers are all young people, or ...... It's all children. It's normal to study superpowers, but I didn't expect to be so refined in action.

The action is recorded quickly, and the overall process is naturally fast.

Originally, people were worried about whether they would work all night and make Kawajin dissatisfied, but if you look at it this way, it will be over at about seven o'clock in the evening, how good is this. Hello everyone!

Recording the action, coupled with simple special effects, a character named "Kawagami Hibiki" was born.

Of course, there are also details to be adjusted after that. For example, attack judgment, such as collision judgment, volume judgment, movement speed, jumping performance, and a series of other details, but in general, this character is done.

By the way, because it is a 3D character, you can log in to your battle account through the Internet to change the clothes of this character, and the logo of Kawajin is red goggles and red tracksuits, if you don't like it, you can change it into a black jacket with big sunglasses. You can also change it to something else, such as a Hawaiian shirt or something, if it's funny.

Producers are shrewd!

Why is it so easy to get started?

In order to make more people use, in order to make this character popular.

Why make him popular?

Because there are more people who use it, there must be more people who buy costume DLC. These are all money-intensive projects. And then there are special effects, such as DLC that allows Kawajin to play red water and the like, which will definitely sell well.

What's more, isn't it now that I have secretly prepared a [Electronic Pet: Your LV5]? first push Chuanshen to the top, and then take advantage of the popularity to promote the product and make him a wave.

If you're lucky, maybe you can bring [industrial effect], and the other LV5 see that Chuanshen has done this, it's very powerful, and everyone will do it, and you can open the market for superpowers.

Even if you're unlucky, the other LV5s still ignore it. But that's no loss, right? Isn't that the same as before? But Chuanshen's product is really sold, and it can make a fortune.

What a shrewd guy.

"By the way, I suddenly had an idea."

When the production company was in full swing to produce the role of Kawajin, Kawajin himself suddenly asked.

The tone is quite polite, with a smile on the corner of the mouth, which always gives people a sense of ...... This person has a sense of something, and it's not a good thing.

"You say."

No matter what, he is a distinguished guest after all, and the person in charge has to give him face. Even if you sense that there is something wrong with him, you can't say anything, you can only agree.

"Since you've given me a role, will my buddies give me a role by the way?"

"Okay!"

The person in charge agreed without thinking.

Is there a reason not to say yes?

It's like inviting a star to act, and suddenly the star says: I still know the XXX star, I'll call him over to film together! I'm sure the director agrees. This is equivalent to getting the benefits of a celebrity's use for nothing (of course, because each office has its own rules, so there is no such example as just mentioned.) )

People are going to make superpower fighting games, and naturally, the more superpowers you can collect, the better. It is true that the more capable people come, the more money will be spent, but considering the actual benefits, it is still profitable on the whole.

"I'm tired to ask you, your friends, what level of ability are they?"

The person in charge would love to ask this, but based on his position, it is not quite possible to ask such a question. So, it was a clerk who asked on his behalf.

The person in charge and he are good friends, which is the so-called [nepotism], the two of them are good friends who have played since childhood, and when he looks at the face of the person in charge, he knows what the person in charge is thinking, and knows that he is not good at asking, and he as an ordinary staff member, he spoke for him.

"Hmm...... LV2-LV5 are available. Isn't it causing trouble here? It's inconvenient, forget it. ”

Kawajin misunderstood what he meant, and thought that people didn't want to increase the workload.

"Convenient! It's so convenient! It's incredibly convenient! ”

As soon as he heard that there was LV5, the person in charge immediately responded, for fear that he would repent and change his mind.

It's easy to understand why this problem exists.

After all, LV5 is a [distinguished guest], and the level of hospitality is different.

After success, the [performance bonus] calculated is also different.

Before I came today, the female member who was looking for Kawajin was happy.

Because she brought in a LV5, according to the company's regulations, the performance bonus is 2 points.

That's right, two percent of the game's overall revenue.

This is already quite exaggerated data as a performance reward, and all those who have worked in the company and won performance awards should feel it. The general performance bonus is a percentage of the profit, and it is rare to give as much as one percent directly, generally the proportion of thousandths and ten-thousandths.

This is also the ruthlessness of the game company. In order to allow employees to mobilize all their strength to tap LV5 level superpowers.

If you can really bring all 8 LV5s over, this is 16% of the revenue, which is a lot for the company.

However, if all 8 LV5s really come and establish a cooperative relationship, you can continue to tap their value in the future, and in the long run, it will definitely make money.

The current situation is like, spending 5 million to buy a gold ore vein, although it seems quite expensive, but considering the benefits of the gold mine, it will definitely make money in the future.

The mobile games they made themselves have proved this before: the market for superpowers is huge. Because there are very few people who specialize in entertaining them.

To be honest, the person in charge saw that the female employee could pull over an LV5, and he was very jealous and envious. It's as if I finally made a big cake, but before I picked up the knife, I was divided into a big head, which was particularly unhappy.

Well, now, if Kawajin introduces even one LV5, he will be balanced.

"So be it! It's better to choose a day than to hit the day! The two friends you brought today, let's make models and data on the spot, and then you can bring your friends over, at any time! This is my business card, you can contact me anytime! ”

The person in charge almost smiled on his face, and in order to get closer, he offered to help Sister Misaka and Chiyuki Shimazaki also make characters.

Where do others need to say more? The efficiency of the department is good, and the overall gain is more, of course, I am not willing to give up. Suppose, this game can be as popular as the previous one, no, even if you make a discount, the revenue will be 3 billion. Of the 3 billion, if you take 2 percent, there will be 60 million.

Should this be done in this case? ——BY. Misaka asks questions to his seniors. ”

"I, I'm not a combat superpower...... This ......"

Sister Misaka and Chiyuki Shimazaki cast him a plea look at him almost at the same time.

But they are already interested, where will the playful Kawajin care about them? Smile happily and wave to them, with an expression wishing you a smooth journey.

It seems that Kawajin wants to go back to the dormitory, and there will be some time.
