Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 139 43. The final work

Qing Zhiyuan himself felt a little dazed when he saw CG, as if he was watching "Your Name" in a cinema in his previous life.

Sure enough, only Xin Haicheng can surpass Xin Haicheng.

Even if Qing Zhiyuan could imitate this style of painting, he always felt that something was missing.

After seeing the PV of "Your Name", Qing Zhiyuan is even more looking forward to Makoto Shinkai's future works.

Of course, the current Xin Haicheng has not yet reached the peak of his previous life, but he already has considerable painting skills. With the assistance of Qing Zhiyuan, "Your Name" has not reached the level of his previous life, but it has already Quite close, enough to shock this era.

Sure enough, after the PV was broadcast, the game immediately aroused widespread heated discussions and discussions.

"This is actually a promotional video for a game?! It's so powerful. It would be amazing if the game could show such image quality."

"Is this already an animated movie-level game? And just seeing this promotional video makes people want to experience it."

"The promotional video for Your Name is also great, isn't it? Before this game, I have never seen any game that can do this to this extent."

"There is a lot of information in the picture. The duration of the PV is very short, but it already tells a lot of useful information."

"Both the male and female protagonists are so good-looking, I'm a little hesitant to get into it."

…

The promotional video for pokeni's latest work "Your Name" can be said to be quite impressive.

The ultra-high-quality PV pictures make people wonder if this is not a game at all, but a movie animation.

There is even a faint sense of a beautiful style similar to that of Hayao Miyazaki, but overall, the painting style is very modern and even creates a new era of aesthetics.

It's a pity that Neon computers are not yet popular, and the WINDOWS system has only reached version 3. Otherwise, in the future, people's evaluation of "Your Name" will be -

"Every frame in this PV can be used as wallpaper."

Wallpaper madman, he deserves the title of Makoto Shinjin.

…

The wave of publicity for "Your Name" can be described as explosive.

With a short PV, it quickly became popular.

Regardless of whether you have played pokeni games before, as long as you have seen its promotional video, you will definitely be attracted by it.

The beautiful pictures, the interesting body-swapping story, and the various hidden foreshadowings are all constantly tugging at the heartstrings of the audience.

Many people want to see what such a game looks like.

Moreover, coupled with the clearly written "Furuhara Chunqiu's Retirement" in the PV, the game has a wonderful chemical reaction, making countless people cherish this game even more.

For old pokeni players, "Your Name" is a continuation of surprises.

And no one wants it to be the end.

"Nene, have you seen pokeni's latest game promotional video?"

After watching the pv, players from P club gathered together to discuss.

In an era without the Internet, the only way to share games was to chat in person.

Nowadays, the number of pokeni players has gradually increased, and P Club is well-known. Even if many people have not played pokeni's galgame, they have heard of it.

At least the names of Furuhara Chunqiu and Xu Yuanxuan are like thunder, and they are closely connected with the blade.

"Of course I watched it. It's so awesome. It's worthy of being the work of Chunqiu Furuhara."

"Yes, the old thief Gu Yuan is really awesome. No one can surpass him in the gal game."

For old fans, pokeni is actually synonymous with [cartoon-level] games. Since Onmyoji, this company has been demanding itself with the highest level of painting in the industry.

At the same time, it does not live up to the players' expectations. As long as it is a galgame developed by P Company, there is no bad-looking one.

At least at the time, the picture quality was definitely top-notch in the industry.

But this time, pokeni’s promotional video has taken the picture quality to the sky.

"The old thief Gu Yuan is really strong, but I heard that the script of "Your Name" this time was not written by Xuan Urobuchi. I don't know if there will be any problems."

"What can go wrong? Gu Yuan Chunqiu is the guarantee."

"You can tell when you look at this game that you're going to get a knife."

"You guys think too much, producer Gu Yuan Chunqiu, is there any game that doesn't use swords?"

"Would it be a little better without Xu Yuanxuan?"

"Not necessarily... Onmyoji is not a script written by Urobuchi Gen. It's just the same sword. I don't have any hope for Furuhara Chunqiu."

When everyone said this, they all fell silent.

"Old thief Gu Yuan is really not a human being. If you recall carefully, this bastard has never made any galgame that doesn't use swords."

"All games produced by Gu Yuan will hurt the hearts of players. Do you still remember the last game "Reverse Degree Man"? What about the no-knife man that was clearly promised?"

"It is true that there is no knife man. Both the male and female protagonists are alive and well, but it is better to kill them with a knife. I still don't dare to think about the ending. This is the most tortured time I have ever been."

"Yes, in comparison, the Onmyoji series in which the heroine dies does not seem to have such a strong impact. This feeling of not being able to love and losing forever is too uncomfortable."

"Two parallel lines never intersect. This is the most uncomfortable ending of a game I have ever seen."

"But... how should I put it? You have to admit that Gu Yuan's game is really good."

"Indeed, this is the only game that other companies can't imitate even if they want to. It can only be experienced once."

"Every time I play Gu Yuan's game, I muster up the courage, but every time he makes me lose so completely."

"But every time Gu Yuan old thief comes out with a new game, don't you just rush out and buy it?"

"Because this is the only one. The galgames produced by other companies are much worse than P in terms of game stories."

"Hey...it's a pity that the old thief Gu Yuan is really going to retire."

"What should I do? This is already the last work of the old thief Gu Yuan. I won't have a chance to be abused in the future."

"yes……"

…

Super exquisite promotional video, superimposed on Gu Yuan Chunqiu's "Retirement Work", the popularity of your name continues to rise.

Your Name has become the most attractive game at the end of 1992, even surpassing "Dragon Quest 5" currently released on SFC.

"Retire?! Crazy."

On Rentendo's side, President Hiroshi Yamauchi sneered and slammed Goleton's magazine onto the table.

Miyamoto Shigeru didn't speak. He silently observed the expression on the president's face. Today, Hiroshi Yamauchi had a smile on his face, but what he said made people confused.

You don't even know whether this person is happy or unhappy.

"It's a means of hype, but deliberately retiring in order to promote "Your Name" seems a bit unworthy." Miyamoto Shigeru honestly expressed his inner thoughts.

Qing Zhiyuan has been mentioned more and more by the president since last year.

At first, Miyamoto Shigeru didn’t quite understand why President Yamauchi always paid attention to this person, but now he seems to have some new insights——

The company pokeni is really capable in making games.

He had heard that Qing Zhiyuan had offended President Yamauchi. At that time, Shigeru Miyamoto believed that the company was definitely doomed. After all, Rentendo controlled 90% of Neon's game market.

But I didn't expect that P Club and Sega were bound together, and they were doing better and better.

Especially since Pokémon came out, it has continued to rise.

It's really not easy to do this.

So, did President Yamauchi pay attention to Qing Zhiyuan and Furuhara Chunqiu because he had already seen the potential of P Company?

To a certain extent, Shigeru Miyamoto hopes that Furuhara Tsubaki's retirement is real and not just a marketing ploy. At least from his understanding of pokeni, Furuhara Tsubaki can be regarded as half pokeni.

Without Tsubaki Furuhara, pokeni's new games would probably lose more than half of their quality.

For the industry hegemon Ren Tiantang, he is not so jealous of talents.

As Miyamoto Shigeru knows about Yamauchi Hiroshi, he has always wanted to constantly suppress challengers.

"That's why I think pokeni is really ridiculous." Hiroshi Yamauchi smiled and shook his head. "Every producer only has one such opportunity to retire from marketing in his life. If it happens too many times, his credibility cannot be guaranteed."

Miyamoto Shigeru nodded in agreement.

However, there is another premise that the president did not mention——

The marketing strategy of retiring has a prerequisite, that is, the person must have enough influence.

If Furuhara Chunqiu's retirement can bring such a big advertising effect, it can only mean that he has indeed done a pretty good job in the game.

…

"Your Name" continues to gain popularity and has received widespread attention.

The time came on December 1, 1992.

"Your Name" is officially released.

On this day, early in the morning, long lines formed at the entrances of major game stores.

All pokeni players want to buy a copy of "Your Name"

So far, this game, which is tightly bound to [Furuhara Chunqiu], is no longer just a game.

It has a different meaning.

Because this is Gu Yuan Chunqiu’s retirement work.

In ancient China, it was called Jue Xiang.

There are many players here who have played P Club games, but there are only a few who really want to play one.

There are many players who have played the galgame produced by Furuhara Chunqiu, but there are only a few players who have played the entire series of Furuhara.

Many players came to make up their tickets today.

And it's not just a replacement ticket, buying "Your Name" has more symbolic meaning.

Some players even want to buy three sets directly, one for playing by themselves, one for collection, and one for preaching.

“If you can’t play games by Gu Yuan in the future, at least you can give it a try to other people who have never experienced it, and tell them that there was such an amazing game producer.”

"That's what I think too, just buy three copies."

"It's a pity that I couldn't catch up with the Onmyoji era in the past. Rentian Tiantang won't let P Company reprint the game. Now I can't collect all the works of Furuhara Chunqiu."

"How can I practice it? Me too."

…

Gu Yuan Chunqiu was in the queue, listening to the discussion of the players in front, and his mood was indescribably complicated.

At first, he thought that Gu Yuan Chunqiu's retirement was a fake news. Later, when it was confirmed in the PV, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

This feeling is even more unacceptable than playing the game of Gu Yuan Lao Thief.

"Do you think Chunqiu Furuhara will return to making games in the future?"

"It's hard to say. Under normal circumstances, if you retreat, you probably won't come back."

"The key is that I still don't know what the old thief Gu Yuan looks like, which is very sad."

"But Hayao Miyazaki said he would retire before, but didn't he come back later?"

"Yes, Hayao Miyazaki can come back because he really loves animation, and we also love him and the animation he produces."

"I also hope that the old thief Gu Yuan can come back."

"Me too."

"Even if you can come back, it will probably take a few years, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it be too cheap and childish to retire?"

"Ah... I feel so uncomfortable when I think about not being able to play the game of Guyuan Old Thief for many years to come, or even for the rest of my life."

Furukawa Haoze nodded in agreement.

These speeches clearly indicate that they are loyal to the old thief from Gu Yuan.

Furukawa Hirose recalled the scene of watching the PV before. It is still so clear in his brain now, as if the picture is engraved in his mind. The main reason is that your name is so impressive that he can't forget it even if he wants to. .

After waiting in line for more than an hour, it was finally Furukawa Hirose's turn.

As soon as I entered the store, the store manager reminded me, "The inventory of "Your Name" is currently limited. I hope everyone can buy one set each and save some for players who need it later. Try not to stock up."

Hearing this, Furukawa Haoze couldn't help but frowned severely.

As soon as I heard it, I knew that the people who came to scan the goods before were crazy and bought several copies directly.

Although Hirokawa Furukawa had planned this, he couldn't bear the thought of the possibility that the fans who had been waiting in line for so long might not be able to play the game.

…

The success of "Your Name" was something that distributors had long expected, but they still underestimated the popularity of the game on its release day.

So even if Hattori Hiroyuki directly took 50,000 copies of inventory this time, the inventory would be in short supply in less than 5 hours on the first day.

In the store, the game "Your Name" is particularly conspicuous, placed on the shelf in the center of the store.

It's not so much a shelf as the pile in the middle is made entirely of game boxes.

It's just that this hill has lost its shape now, and there isn't much left.

This is the first time that a game from P Club has enjoyed such C-level treatment.

Furukawa Haoze had nothing to hesitate. He followed the crowd in and then consciously took a portion when it came to him.

If you try to reach out for a second portion at this time, you will be looked down upon to death by the peers around you.

In a country like Neon, few people can do such [shameless] things against the air.

So Furukawa Hirose finished taking one and quickly followed the team to the cashier to settle the bill.

…

When he got home, he wiped the game box carefully.

On the cover are beautiful images of the male and female protagonists.

The shooting stars in the background shine with coquettish light.

He sighed silently——

"This is Chunqiu Furuhara's last work."
