Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 281 185. The world is changing too fast

With a new script outline for The Witcher 2, the project quickly got underway.

But at the same time, Mikami suffered.

He is equivalent to being the producer of three game works at the same time, one is "The Witcher 2".

There are also the latest developments of "Princess Mononoke" and "Diablo 3"

Now Shinji Mikami is basically too busy.

So Qing Zhiyuan suggested that he could appoint a supervisor first and distribute two of the games.

"Huh? Then who can be the producer?" Shinji Mikami also felt very embarrassed, "Can Wada take on The Witcher 2? After all, he wrote the script himself, so Wada should have a lot of ideas, right?"

"Well, I suggest not to do it." Qing Zhiyuan said.

Gen Urobuchi has top-notch script writing skills, but he is still lacking as a producer for a large project. He might end up turning into a video animation game.

"Miyazaki, Qing Zhiyuan said, Miyazaki has been working with you for a long time. Let him practice "The Witcher 2" first."

"Miyazaki Hidetaka?" Shinji Mikami asked with some confusion, "Can he?"

"Yeah." Qing Zhiyuan nodded.

But shouldn’t I ask you this?

Hidetaka Miyazaki is talented, and he works hard enough. Give him a chance to practice, and at the same time pave the way for the future era of 3D action games.

Qing Zhiyuan suddenly thought——

If Hidetaka Miyazaki were to make The Witcher 2, would the combat change?

"Yeah. Then let's give it to Miyazaki. Actually, I think Miyazaki is very hard-working and has good game skills, and I like him very much."

Miyazaki Hidetaka has been practicing with Shinji Mikami in the Diablo 2 project for almost a year, and he has made great progress.

It's just that Shinji Mikami didn't particularly expect what would happen if Hidetaka Miyazaki served as the producer.

The president asked Mikami to supervise the game in order to prevent the game from going too far.

Mikami himself has some experience of this.

Then I thought about it, he was promoted to another level.

"So what about Diablo 3, who should I give it to?"

"Well..." Qing Zhiyuan thought for two seconds, "Let's postpone this for now."

Originally, he wanted to send Diablo III to the American subsidiary, which was equivalent to returning Diablo's biological father's previous life to the Diablo team.

But after thinking about it carefully, it still feels a little inappropriate.

Breivik and others in the previous life were indeed the founders of the Dark series, but those were all things in the previous life.

Now Diablo was created by Qing Zhiyuan himself, Mikami put a lot of effort into it, and the game also made Qing Zhiyuan and Mikami Shinji successful.

It's equivalent to them being Dark's biological parents.

At this time, the American branch does not have such deep feelings for this game. Even if they think that Diablo is a masterpiece and this IP has great value, it is impossible for their thinking mode, emotion and level of care to be the same. It was like that in the previous life.

Under the producer system, games are [very personal] to a certain extent.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Qing Zhiyuan decided to postpone Diablo 3 instead of handing it over to Pokeni America to take over.

And technically it can wait a little longer.

Now making Diablo 3 is actually an upgraded version of Diablo 2, which is equivalent to 2.5.

Wait a little longer, and when 3D hardware develops, Diablo 3 will be able to do quite well.

…

After the arrangements for the rear area were in place, Qing Zhiyuan was finally able to find time to launch an attack.

The next step is to go all out to promote Pokémon 3D.

…

"New game?"

In the izakaya, Hattori Hiroyuki picked up the CD and looked at it. The words "Pokémon 3D World" were written on it.

A derivative of Pokémon?

What's this new game called?

However, soon, Hiroyuki Hattori noticed the key words——

3D.

"Huh? Didn't you expect that your pokeni would also enter the 3D field?"

"Yes." Qing Zhiyuan smiled and nodded, "This is the first 3D game produced by our company. President Hattori, please take care of it."

Although this concept has been very popular by Sony and Sega for some time, it seems that no heavyweight product has been born so far.

Only Sega's VR Warrior is a bit of a splash, creating good sales of more than one million copies, but the others...

Anyway, Hattori Hiroyuki didn't see anything successful.

There is no concept of 3D now, but it is still far away from [games]. Many 3D games give people a rough feeling and cannot compete with current 2D games.

As for pokeni, I want to make 3D Pokémon.

Hattori Hiroyuki's instinct was not optimistic.

"Brother, I won't remind you if you're not an older brother." Hattori Hiroyuki persuaded her earnestly, "In the past six months, there have been many 3D game companies and a lot of games have been released. I don't know if they were bewitched by Sony and started going to this place. The direction is rushing, but so far, no product has been successful.

To tell you the truth, I still don’t dare to buy 3D after hearing about it. At most, I just buy a little bit, otherwise I won’t be able to sell it at all, and it will be a complete loss.

You have to be careful. "

"Well, thank you, President Hattori, for reminding me." Qing Zhiyuan didn't pay much attention. He just took a sip of wine and raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

I haven’t seen this guy Hattori Hiroyuki for only a few months, but his whole person has actually changed quite a bit.

He used to look a bit like a "strong man", with a bald head and a relatively large build, giving him a very imposing look.

But since the birth of his little daughter, Hattori Hiroyuki's whole person has changed.

Not only has his appearance become more kind, but he has also gained weight, and now his belly can reach the dining table.

This is probably the so-called happy fatness.

"President Hattori, listen to me," Qing Zhiyuan said with a smile, "My 3D game is really different from other companies' 3D games. You will understand after you go back and experience it once.

As soon as "Pokémon 3D World" comes out, the whole world will be shocked. "

Tsk tsk.

Hiroyuki Hattori thought to himself, good guy, you and Ken Kutaragi of Sony are bragging about the same thing.

The kind that doesn't even have to be changed.

The key is not that I believe you or not, but that there is no basis for people to believe in 3D today.

"I hope so." Hiroyuki Hattori nodded.

"Then it's still the same, get 100,000 copies?" Qing Zhiyuan asked tentatively.

"Hmm... Well, let's give it a try with 10,000 first." Hiroyuki Hattori saw Qing Zhiyuan's shocked face and quickly stretched out his hand to suppress him, "Qing Sang, listen to me, it's not that I don't want to support you.

We at Dongrun must also make money, otherwise how can we support so many employees?

To be honest, if it were any other type of game, as long as it was not 3D, even if you continued to make handheld Pokémon, I would take 100,000 copies without saying a word, and I would dare to take even 500,000 copies.

But now it is true that the 3D market is not mature enough, so I still hope to be cautious. "

Qing Zhiyuan also pretended to be angry, but he didn't really take it seriously.

He can also understand Hattori Hiroyuki's psychology. After all, 3D is a new thing. Although the concept is quite popular, there are no big-name games.

Even now, Rentiantian has not thought about entering 3D.

Moreover, Sony has been bragging and criticizing it for more than half a year. Don’t they have to wait until this game comes out before they know that what Sony said is true?

"Should we stick to the principle of repairing the fire if it catches fire?" Hiroyuki Hattori said, holding Qing Zhiyuan's hand.

"Okay, Hattori-san, to be honest, our new game is really awesome. Otherwise, I wouldn't have such great confidence."

"Yeah, I can see that."

…

The two of them ate for a while, changing glasses, and each other became a little tipsy.

During this process, we also talked about a lot of shortcomings between the parents.

"Qingsang, listen to me. If you can't get married, try not to get married. Marriage is the grave of love." Hattori Hiroyuki took a hard sip, and the bitter wine entered his throat and made his heart ache.

Seeing his appearance, Qing Zhiyuan thought about how high-spirited President Hattori he used to be, how now he was controlled by his new wife.

"But, I still have to give birth to a daughter." Hattori Hiroyuki became happy again.

"Can I have children without getting married?"

"Of course you can, why not?"

"Isn't that irresponsible to the woman?"

"ha?"

Hattori Hiroyuki looked at Qing Zhiyuan in disbelief, you are so rich, why do you have any responsibility?

"Qingsang, wouldn't you say that you are quite single-minded?"

Qing Zhiyuan curled his lips and did not respond.

I'm just very dedicated.

Moreover, after having Nao Tsuda, you won’t be interested in other women at all, okay?

After carefully checking the expression on Qing Zhiyuan's face, Hattori Hiroyuki realized that what he said was true.

"Ah~" Hattori clicked his tongue and sighed, "Your girlfriend is really happy."

Qing Zhiyuan smiled, probably like this.

However, he had not thought about whether to marry Tsuda Nao, and he was even worried that their relationship would change after they got married because of Hattori Hiroyuki's words.

However, this kind of thing is just a pony crossing the river. It is of no use listening to others. The most important thing is to rely on your own perception.

…

The two chatted for a while, starting from family, love, then women, and finally back to games.

"Qingsang, I find that your pokeni are really interesting. You are quite diligent in changing platforms." Hiroyuki Hattori said with a smile.

He is quite diligent.

In the beginning, it was Rentendo's Famicom, then it became Sega's MD and PG, and now it has switched to Sony's PS platform.

Of course, as a game company, it is also free to make games for different platforms.

Hattori Hiroyuki was just joking.

The evil smile on his face seemed to be saying, Qingsang, your thighs change very quickly.

"Actually," Qing Zhiyuan stood up and said close to Hattori Hiroyuki's ear, "We participated in the development of Sony's PS, and the 3D performance was originally designed to support our new game."

"Huh? Is that so?"

Hattori Hiroyuki clicked his tongue in surprise, his eyes falling on the Pokémon disc, "Then I'm really curious about this "Pokémon 3D World"."

…

After drinking in the evening, Hiroyuki Hattori got into his private car under Qing Zhiyuan's warm farewell.

The latter got into the car and waved goodbye to Qing Zhiyuan.

Soon, as the car drove away, Qing Zhiyuan's figure disappeared in the rearview mirror.

Hattori Hiroyuki opened a slit in the window and let in the night breeze, feeling that he felt unusually comfortable tonight.

"It's been a long time since I went out for a drink with President Qing. I really miss it."

When the driver in front heard the president's words, he couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his eyes.

It sounds really bitter.

Since getting married, the president seems to have been put in shackles.

Hattori Hiroyuki squinted his eyes and silently recalled what happened during the dinner.

After a while, he opened his eyes again and took out the CD from the gift bag.

Reflected in the light, you can also see the exquisite 3D cover of Pokémon.

"Have you noticed?" Hattori said slowly.

"Huh?" the driver responded.

The main reason is that there is no one else in the car. If the president doesn't talk to him, is he still talking to a ghost?

"The world is changing too fast." Hiroyuki Hattori lamented.

how to say?

The development of the times is really changing with each passing day.

"In the past, well, a year ago, the games on the street were all on cartridges, but now more than half of them are on discs."

The advantages of optical discs are so great that the storage capacity has been increased from a few megabytes to over gigabytes.

At the same time, the improvement in game quality is also very obvious.

Large-capacity games far surpass those cartridge games in terms of game quality and game content.

"Yes." The driver nodded and agreed, "Human technology is constantly improving. Even my daughter has begun to learn how to use computers."

"Um?"

"Has Marika also started learning computers?"

"Yes, truth smells so good..." When talking about his daughter, the driver started talking non-stop.

Hattori Hiroyuki also chatted with him very happily.

Both of them are fathers, so they resonate very much.

But at this moment, the driver stepped on the brakes and instinctively stopped.

"Oops~"

This time, Hiroyuki Hattori was almost thrown forward.

"Ah! President! I'm very sorry." The driver quickly asked nervously, "Are you okay? I just hit the brakes when I see the trash can."

"it's okay no problem."

Hattori Hiroyuki waved his hand.

I stood up straight and looked out the window. It was really a trash can.

Good guy, you've already mastered this skill.

…

Hattori Hiroyuki looked down at the game disc in his hand.

Technology is constantly developing and progressing. Who would have thought two years ago that games in the future would use optical discs as the main carrier?

And in the future, who knows what will replace optical discs?

so what.

Hattori Hiroyuki thought——

It’s not certain that the future will really be an era of 3D games.

"Um."

Hattori Hiroyuki sighed.

[This game is definitely a product that creates history. President, you will know it when you go back and experience it. 】

Hattori Hiroyuki recalled Qing Zhiyuan's words with a smile on his lips.

I definitely won’t experience it, but I still wish you a great sale of the game!

There was a clang.

The game disc was thrown into the trash can by Hiroyuki Hattori.

The frightened wild cat that was looking for food jumped out of it.
