What everyone could see about this trailer was the smooth motion capture, even on the dog, which was the first time in the world that this technology had been used on an animal. Even after the film ended, everyone still remembered the white dog that snoozed, yawned, stretched and wagged its tail. This makes this game world more vivid.

Of course, this is not just the work of motion capture, it must be the result of a combination of motion capture data and hand-animated data. It is necessary to use a variety of program algorithms and physics simulations to enhance the preset animations, combined with motion deformation technology to retain the original basic motion mode, so that the original stiff computational generation and live-action capture hybrid animation looks more natural and realistic.

Then there is the near-world-class picture rendering technology, especially the dynamic lighting and soft shadow rendering support, which simulates the changes of light and shadow in different dynamic weather, resulting in high-resolution volumetric shadow effects with perspective correction.

They were very impressed with the different lighting at night, during the day, and at sunset in the video. The last rays of light that shine through the thick clouds and the black clouds that reflect the red edge are almost one of the most beautiful moments of this E3 before the sunset is expressed with the addition of volumetric light technology.

Then there's the clever use of Shader shaders. Whether it's drinking water and wetting your clothes or the effect of snow on your shoulders in college, you can show the company's attention to detail. Especially in that pool of water, the ripples, reflections, refractions, color or transparency effects of the water are almost realistic, all of which are achieved through the operation of Shader, which is breathtaking.

Another of Athena's other biggest strengths, the physics engine, is not reflected in this animation, because there are no collisions, fights, explosions, etc., which have not yet been developed in those places. But what made the audience dumbfounded at that time was the real water flow effect simulated when the monstrous flood struck at the end.

The role of the physics engine is to simulate the real object motion performance in the game, and for fluids, the simulation of soft bodies is many times more difficult than rigid objects, and it is also a technical problem that everyone is currently overcoming. It's not just a trickle, it's a huge wave, and at the end of the film, as it sweeps over the mountains, it rolls up thick tree trunks that drift like rootless duckweed, which is the role of Newton's physics engine in Athena 2.0.

It may not be that these things can be fully used in the final game, but at least it shows that the herring fish network has mastered these technologies. From a company that makes online games and creative games, it has taken a solid step towards a real gaming giant.

It seemed like a declaration that they had joined the party, not only in E3, but also in the 3A and $60 gladiatorial arena.

The subtext of this promo is: "Hello everyone, we're Fisoa, we're here." ”

As for the content of the trailer, it does not show too many causes and consequences of the story, and the context and background also leave suspense.

But these people in the audience thought of "Truman's World", "The Matrix", "Hackers from Another Dimension", "Soul City", "Fly Out of the Future", and the philosophical proposition called "Brain in a Jar".

Players in front of Chinese computers may think of Nan Ke Yimeng, Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, and it is rare to be confused.

These are not very novel discussions, but it may be that the kind of life depicted in them is too good, as if the question asked by Pasca, the "director", is not "how do you realize that you are in that predicament", but "why do you want to give up such a life?" ”

First of all, you have to realize that this is not true, but if it is not a short film that is less than 4 minutes, but it is really over a long period of so many years, it may not be so easy.

There are many heartwarming moments in the film, and the interaction between wives, children and pets makes foreigners who are not so easy to understand the culturally characteristic behavior of seclusion feel the satisfaction of the protagonist.

But again, give up such a life, even if you know it is fake, but the feelings are real...... Is it that easy to give up?

This is actually the ultimate theme of the game, why do we choose games, we already have real lives, do we still need to simulate the real in the virtual world?

Even with the advent of VR technology, the first commercial VR headset appeared in 1987, but at that time it was still in the stage of panoramic murals and pictures.

Ren Jile produced the Virtual Boy head-mounted game console in 1995, which was also the first attempt at virtual reality in the gaming industry, but because it was too advanced, this device only sold more than 700,000 units.

Soni also joined the fray with the Glasstron in 1998 and is now working on the HMZ-T1, which is expected to be launched in two years' time.

What are these attempts that we have made in history, and what are we working on?

We all know that virtual reality is not reality after all.

Especially in such an era, everyone is facing countless pressures, work, life, economic crisis, H1N1 swine flu, loans, sub-health, anxiety disorders, or conflicts with bosses, and investors' ideas, and routine games between players...... We are consumed by all these things, and the weight of these things is on our shoulders every day when we get up.

That...... Are we trying to escape?

No, it must not be, it must be for some other purpose...... What is the purpose?

Perhaps this is also the answer that Pasca will reveal.

They were still wondering, and they couldn't be sure if that was the final theme of the game.

But in any case, everyone knows that when this game is finally presented to everyone, it will definitely carry some thoughts on the ultimate proposition and care for humanity, which may be an expression of Pasca's personal attitude as a producer.

This is by no means a simple work, it can afford to be a real masterpiece.

There are many details in this short film of less than four minutes, and perhaps a lot of discussion among the media and players in the future, which adds up to the main reason why this group of battle-hardened professionals involuntarily burst into applause at the end.

It also became a variety of press releases, which were quickly sent to the editorial offices of media outlets around the world for review, polishing, and publishing.

Ye Shenxi stood on the stage and nodded to the people in the audience: "Thank you, thank you." ”

Then seeing that the applause did not stop at all, he could only say: "The chairman of our company is staring at me from the audience, warning me with his eyes not to squeeze her speaking time." ”

"Hahaha." Many people knew about the relationship between Pasca and the chairman of Fisoa, and reciprocated with a good-natured laugh.

Ye Shenxi continued: "Thank you for your recognition of this project, it does not have a definite name yet. But we hope to see you in the spring or summer of 2011. ”

This...... I don't even have a name yet, so why don't you announce the release time first...... It's really out of the ordinary.

"Because the development cycle is still too short, there are only so many things that can be announced at present, and the next thing that will be brought to you by Ms. Xia Qingyu, the chairman of our company, will bring you the latest news about "Eternal War" and "The Origin of Everything".

In another burst of applause, Xia Qingyu held his head high, walked on the stage heroically, hugged Ye Shenxi, and whispered in his ear: "Good job." ”

Ye Shenxi said: "You come to perform." He handed the microphone to Xia Qingyu and walked off the stage.

On the not-so-distant way back to his seat, a few other game producers stood up and high-fived him, hugged him or said hello.

"Pasca, I'm shocked."

"I'm looking forward to your work."

"Hey, are you free? Looking for a chat? ”

What's more embarrassing is that some Ye Shenxi doesn't know ...... I can only vaguely say "Ah, of course." "Thank you." "It's great that you can think like that."

But some of them still know each other, although they haven't dealt with it before, but the other party is too famous, and he also came to the stage just now for the giant hard platform, and at the giant hard press conference, he also helped introduce the new work of "Metal Gear Solid" that he will get on the XBOX360, a product with the protagonist of Thunderbolt, "Metal Gear Solid: Rise".

Only three things were announced, the name of the game, the production for XBOX360, and the fact that the main character is Raiden.

Nothing else.

He's also a very active and popular game producer, and his English isn't bad, and he doesn't have the weird accent of the average Japanese speaker.

"Pasca, your camera use and editing are very professional, if you don't mind, I would like to ask, have you studied it specifically?"

Please, can we talk about the game?

"Hello, Mr. Kojima, I went to China's highest film school for three months to study hard." Ye Shenxi said.

Please, is your kind of three-day class and two-day leave also called concentrated study? You ask Li Rong, do Murong and they agree with you saying this? You're basically not there for the whole post-production, and now the film and television school has started the screening of your graduation work, and you're not there.

I can't say it, Lao Tie.

"No wonder, there are really not many people who can do such a game now, and I think your seriousness and hard work are valuable." Hideo Kojima nodded.

"Thank you."

……

On the stage, Xia Qingyu was nodding and waving to everyone, and the big screen had switched to the screen of "The Origin of Everything" and the FG platform, and then she also began to talk about the "developer profit plan".

Xia Qingyu is also the first time to appear in this kind of international game exchange exhibition,She has never appeared in front of the scene before China's CGS,07 years the two are still looking for the agent of "Immortal Dao", 08 years was also handed over to the Ministry of Commerce, she went to South Korea to be busy with the acquisition and establishment of the first overseas base.

Previously, she was still active on social media more often, often communicating and interacting with fans and players, and had a tendency to become an Internet celebrity, with a bit of entertainment attributes...... But now that I have gone offline and really stepped onto the stage of the world's focus, everyone has been reminded that this is not a simple character.

That's the man at the helm of Fisoa, a rising new giant.
