Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 287 191. This is 3D!

A menu bar appears on the right side of the game start interface.

Pokémon 3D World uses an automatic archiving mode.

Whether you successfully pass this level or return, it will be automatically recorded.

So there is no such thing as continuing the game or restarting. There is only one option in the game menu: please press the A button to start the game.

Of course, the archive has multiple files. If it is a new file, the first one will be recorded by default. If you want to change to other archives later, after clicking [Start Game], there will be a drop-down option for the file. For players to choose.

Now it is the first time for several people to start this game, so they are directly recorded in Archive 1.

The game officially begins.

The screen suddenly went black.

This is followed by a mandatory opening CG (you can skip it after the second episode):

The picture begins.

The cheerful BGM of Pokémon rang.

In a green forest with plenty of daylight, a herd of four-season deer runs through the mountains.

Followed closely by the Mook's eagle passing under the sun.

The wings cast a quick shadow on the ground, startling the greedy chinchilla below.

Greedy chinchillas with long, furry tails jumped to the tree holding the hazelnuts in their hands.

A group of little greedy chinchillas raised their heads to look at the sky, followed by the wind blowing the leaves.

At the same time, countless shuttlecock grasses were blown into the sky, and they were flying like snow.

The camera dropped from the sky to above the woods, and then from above the woods to the grass.

A Kirby in the distance is sleeping soundly, while nearby is Pikachu and several of its friends eating on the grass.

The difference from what Shan Sheng and the others imagined is——

This section is completely expressed in the form of 2D animation, which is more like watching a cartoon extra.

During the playback of this CG, the four children present were screaming all the time. Every time a Pokémon appeared, they would jump up and down and scream out its name.

When the camera settled and Pikachu appeared on the screen, several people were extremely excited.

"Pika pika."

Pikachu grabbed a piece of ketchup with his little paws and squeezed it into his mouth.

When I raised my head, my mouth was covered in ketchup.

"Pika Pika~" Pikachu looked satisfied, sticking out his tongue and licking his lips.

Reiko also imitated Pikachu's voice, "Pika, pika, pika, pika, pika~( @^_^ @)~"

"Ah~ so cute!"

"I think I want a Pikachu too!"

Charmander was stuffing a hamburger into his mouth, and as soon as he ate it, he spit out a mouthful of fire.

"Hoho~"

Bulbasaur was crawling next to him to bask in the sun, and the seeds on his back seemed to be about to sprout.

And Squirtle was holding a hamburger next to him and nibbling on it.

Although there are no people in the picture, it can be seen from the picnic table and the food on the table that their owner should be nearby.

At this moment, Squirtle, who was hiding under the shade of a tree and eating a hamburger, suddenly raised his head, with a look of panic in his eyes.

The camera switches from its eyes to the sky.

I saw a flame burning in the white clouds, falling rapidly.

"Ah! It's a shooting star!" Fat Bear pointed at the TV and shouted!

"Danger!"

Reiko clasped her hands on her chest and prayed for the Pokémon.

The meteor streaked across the sky, hitting exactly in this direction.

The fireball grew rapidly, and the sky above the forest was painted with a fiery red color.

Several Pokémon had panicked looks in their eyes, but they had no time to react.

"Pickup!"

Pikachu's fur exploded all over his body and his tail stood up.

"boom!"

The whole picture is white.

…

The BGM suddenly changed and turned into epic animated music with a sense of grandeur and shock.

Just when everyone was worried about the Pokémon, Pikachu and the others were actually involved in a strange whirlpool.

The vortex is colorful and shines with a strange luster.

Immediately afterwards, the entire body of Pikachu, which was originally 2D, began to expand, as if it was originally a flattened plasticine that was pulled up by one hand, and its head and body grew upward from the 2D plane, and finally It becomes a 3D image.

Several other Pokémon have also undergone similar changes.

Seeing this, several friends were extremely excited.

"Ah! It's changed! It's changed!"

"From a 2D Pokémon to a 3D Pokémon!"

"It's started, it's started! It's so fun!"

The children were full of infinite joy. This was the first time they had seen such a novel performance effect.

The change from 2D to 3D in this section is, on the one hand, the plot, and on the other hand, it is also a way to show how powerful pokeni's art and technical team are.

Although the effect is still separated by a galaxy compared to Qing Zhiyuan's previous life, but at this point in time, the whole world has not opened its eyes at all?

So several children were shocked when they saw the transition effect from 2D to 3D.

"It's amazing. Did you change from 2D to 3D all of a sudden?"

"OK."

After the vortex of time and space closed, the screen changed from white to normal again.

Only this time, the whole world has changed——

It is still a green forest, but the trees, flowers, grass, and stones in the forest, even the shuttlecock grass still flying in the sky, have a 3D sense.

The graphics of the game suddenly became much more refined.

The colors are also richer.

When the distant sun rays shine into the lens, there is also a halo effect like a circle of rainbow bubbles, which makes people’s eyes hurt.

After the camera rotated in the sky, it finally landed on Pikachu and the others.

"Pika Pika..."

Several Pokémon were confused, stood up unsteadily, and looked around, but still couldn't understand.

At this moment, a shadow fell in front of them.

"Gah~~"

Charmander instinctively protected the other friends behind him, and then breathed fire from his mouth, fully alert.

The camera panned around and in front of them stood an owl knight.

It truly means owl knight.

This character was created by pokeni's team for the Pokémon 3D world.

Wearing a knight's armor, holding a shield and a sword in his hands, and trailing a pair of big wings behind him, he looked majestic.

Although the model doesn't have many faces, you can probably tell it looks like a knight.

"Wow, is this a new Pokémon?" Skinny Monkey asked doubtfully.

"probably."

"I heard that after the release of 3D Pokémon, pokeni will add these new Pokémon to the next Pokémon in the future."

"Wow, that would be great."

…

The Owl Knight put his talons on his chest and saluted several of them.

"Gugu, gugu..."

It talks to Pokémon from the 2D world.

Unfortunately, it is not a human language, so the children playing the game were confused.

I think this situation is both real and funny.

"Could it be that the whole process is in the Pokémon's own language?"

"Then how can we understand the plot?"

"But this is the charm of Pokémon. Wouldn't it be weird if Pokémon spoke human words to each other?"

In short, several children laughed heartily and continued to watch the next plot.

After the Owl Knight cooed with them, the color of the screen suddenly changed.

From color to black and white.

At the same time, everything suddenly returned to the memory of the Owl Knight's past.

This is a world with many Pokémon called Potela.

In this world, Pokémon are displayed in 3D images.

At the same time, among Pokémon, there is a mythical beast named Ophelia, who guards the peace of the world.

Ophelia has pure white feathers and looks like a phoenix with wide white wings, but it has a rainbow-colored horn on its head.

And the tail is shaped like a spreading branch.

The mythical creature Ophelia is truly beautiful.

It protects the growth of Pokémon in the forest and maintains the order of the entire world.

And one day, a black shadow [Lucifer] came to this world.

From the silhouette, it looks like a ferocious beast emitting black flames.

The black shadow attacked Ophelia and infected her, and a terrible and evil virus immediately swept through the entire Portela.

And under such circumstances, Ophelia, who still had a trace of sanity left, used her last strength to pull Pikachu and the others into this world before she completely lost control, and entrusted the Owl Knight to lead them.

Pokémon coming from the 2D world don't seem to be infected by this strange virus, and may be able to find real magical power to defeat Lucifer.

Pikachus have a heavy responsibility and are Portra's last hope.

…

The entire section is presented in the form of animated CG plus narration. In order to produce this CG, pokeni's art team spent nearly a month.

Fortunately, the results are quite good.

When several children saw this, their blood boiled.

The story is actually quite simple and even a bit cliché.

The saviors chosen by God came to a 3D different world and embarked on the road of bravery to defeat the devil.

Only this time, the heroes were replaced by Pokémon.

Qing Zhiyuan and the Pokémon team also struggled with the plot design for a long time at the beginning. Whether to use some ups and downs and reversal of the plot to make the game more unique.

In the end, the president made the decision to keep everything simple after much discussion.

Pokémon 3D World is aimed at gamers of all ages, especially children.

The first priority is to allow them to understand the plot and reduce unnecessary obscure metaphors and reversals.

At the same time, simple routine plots are the most effective, which shows that most people just follow this routine.

The most important thing is that it doesn’t matter what the plot of Pokémon 3D World is. The plot serves the game itself, as long as it can be justified and bring out the subsequent level gameplay.

Take a look at the Super Mario series in Rentendo next door. They have been doing it for a hundred years to defeat the dragon and rescue the princess.

The same goes for Dragon Quest.

It means that this routine plot is correct, the most suitable, and the most effective.

Therefore, after some discussion, the president finally made the decision himself and finalized the plot of the game.

…

In fact, just as Qing Zhiyuan envisioned, when the children reached this point, they did not find it boring because of the "old-fashioned" story. Instead, they felt that they were about to play the savior and shoulder a heavy responsibility and were extremely excited.

The picture returned to normal color, and the camera returned to the present——

Owl Knight finished telling everything and saluted Pikachu and the others again.

"Gu Gu."

"Pika pika."

Pikachu patted his chest.

Fat Bear translated, "Great, Owl Knight, leave the rest to us."

The CG playback ends and the camera returns to the official game.

Four player interfaces are displayed on the screen, with prompt words in the middle:

"Please use the left and right arrow keys or the joystick to select the character you want to operate."

To guide players, there are corresponding controller pictures on the screen.

"Oh, operating the joystick, right?"

Noboru Uesugi nodded and began to turn the joystick.

Several children soon fell into a battle over who would choose [Pikachu].

After some bickering, it was decided to go rock-paper-scissors to decide who would choose first.

In the end, Noboru Uesugi got Pikachu, Reiko got Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Skinny Monkey used Squirtle.

…

The game officially begins.

Several characters lined up in a row and appeared on the big map.

This is Pokémon 3D World, the first level of the game.

The entire first level is a very simple large map covered with green vegetation.

Although it is called a large map, in fact this large map is quite simple, equivalent to the size of a flying chess board used to play tabletop games.

In the grass, starting from the starting point, there is a cube standing on the grass.

The cube is a condensed version of the orchard, with three five-pointed stars on top. None of the five-pointed stars have been lit up yet.

This orchard is actually the first level of this first level.

…

So Noboru Uesugi, as the captain (controller No. 1), led everyone to the location of the first level according to the operating instructions.

Before entering the level, here is a novice guide.

pokeni's novice guide is quite good. It first guides how to use the left joystick to move forward, backward, left, and right.

Then he told Noboru Uesugi, "Use the right joystick to rotate the camera angle."

Noboru Uesugi nodded and turned according to the guidance.

Immediately afterwards, the world in the entire TV set also began to rotate.

"Wow!"

When the friends saw this, they all exclaimed in unison.

"Oh my god, can this game actually turn the whole world around?"

"This is the first time I have played a game like this. It's so amazing!"

"I know! This is 3D!" Fat Bear roared decisively.
