Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 342 246. The Tianling Cap was blown away

After the demonstration of "The Witcher 2: Devil's Egg", Miyazaki walked off the stage and sat back down in his seat, his hands shaking.

It’s so scary. It’s my first time to stand on such a stage, and the video will be released after the Tokyo Game Show, which is equivalent to a direct broadcast around the world.

Next to him, Shinji Mikami patted him on the shoulder and gave Hidetaka Miyazaki a thumbs up.

"Well done, you'll get used to it."

"Thank you." Miyazaki smiled sadly.

Mikami Shinji felt a warm current surge in his heart and shuddered involuntarily.

…

After the demonstration of "The Witcher 2: Demon Egg", Qing Zhiyuan smiled slightly, "Do you still remember the second piece played by Master Joe Hisaishi just now?"

"Pokémon!!!"

There was a uniform voice in the audience.

"Okay, then, next."

Qing Zhiyuan raised his arm, pointed at the big screen, and said loudly, "Pokémon! The Dark Side of the Moon!"

The lights in the entire venue dimmed again, and the big screen also lit up.

4 little ones are running in the picture.

Running across the grass, then into snow, then onto the beach…

On the distant sea, the moonlight in the sky exudes strange colors.

"Wow, it really is a Pokémon!"

The audience at the scene suddenly became excited.

Since Pokémon 3D World became a best-seller last year, global sales have now exceeded 10 million copies. It was launched in the Omi region at the end of last year, and its popularity is so high.

Because the audience and reporters at the Pokémon Animation's hit broadcast must know it even if they have never played the game.

You can even clearly tell who is who inside.

…

The original Pokémon was pulled into a different world for a magical journey, successfully helped the magical world defeat Lucifer, and returned to the current Pokémon world.

In this game, the Pokémon once again started their own adventure, going to the back of the moon.

A more vast and mysterious stage slowly began.

"Wow, that seems interesting."

"It should be another fun game for the whole family, at least judging from the video, it's very enjoyable."

"What kind of secrets are hidden on the far side of the moon?"

I've been looking forward to it all.

"Have you noticed that pokeni seems to really like the moon?"

An audience member discovered Hua Dian.

"Huh? It sounds like it's true. In Pokémon Dark Side of the Moon, in the previous game "Proposal Battle", Li and Ken called each other Miss Moon and Mr. River, and in the end The scene is still at the beach, and there is also a moon."

"Going to the Moon is even more obvious. The game "Going to the Moon" was only released last year, and this year the Pokémon actually went to the moon. It seems that Paradox really has a soft spot for the moon."

"It's not pokeni who likes it, it's Qing Zhiyuan who likes it."

"It is said that "Proposal Battle" itself was developed by Qing Jiyuan in order to propose to Miss Tsuda."

"Ah~ If that's the case, wouldn't it be..."

The audience covered their mouths in surprise, and connected all the little threads in their minds.

"To the Moon", "Miss Moon and Mr. River", "The Dark Side of the Moon"...

From this point of view, all games are not simply made for players.

"Miss Yue is Miss Tsuda, and Mr. Ha is actually Qing Jiyuan, right?"

"Ah! Indeed, this is very possible."

"Ah, damn it! Is this how bosses show their affection?"

"Hahahaha, it's too sweet. I secretly express my love for Miss Tsuda through games. But if I think about it carefully, there is really such a person who is willing to play games for me and put the relationship between us Euphemistically integrated into it...

Ah~ Yes, I am also willing to marry Qing Zhiyuan. "

"Tsk, tsk, my whole teeth are sore."

…

At the end of the entire film, in the shadow of the moon, a dark Pokémon with a crescent-shaped mark on its forehead walked out with elegant steps.

The strong posture is really beautiful.

This is the biggest gimmick in Dark Side of the Moon - Eevee Moon.

Moon Eevee's fur is black, its eyes are red, and the ring pattern on its body is dazzling gold. When the body is bathed in the moon's fluctuations, the circle-like pattern will glow slightly, and then the magical power will be awakened.

As soon as a head was exposed, there was an exclamation of surprise from below.

"What's this?"

"Is it Eevee? It feels a bit like it. Or is it a new Pokémon?"

"Isn't it too cute?"

"It would be great if such a creature existed in reality. I would also like to raise one."

"I want to raise him too."

…

The promotional video did not reveal too much information. "Pokémon: Dark Side of the Moon" is now just an unfinished product. At most, you can see some sporadic fragments about "Dark Side of the Moon" and many scenes. It's gorgeous, but has very little information.

But this does not prevent everyone from thinking about it as a particularly interesting and excellent multiplayer masterpiece.

After the promotional video was played, Qing Zhiyuan invited the producer, who is also the leader of the entire Pokémon team, and general supervisor Lisa Asano to the stage to demonstrate the actual content.

Although it is not yet a finished version, for this electronics show, the team members worked hard and improvised a playable demo version.

Everything else is easy to talk about, but the president’s face cannot be lost.

We can no longer be told that P Club is too shabby like last year.

It stands to reason that "Pokémon Dark Side of the Moon" will be released together with "Pokémon Sun Myth".

A twin game must look like a twin game in order to maximize the effect.

…

After Lisa Asano took the stage, she invited Qing Zhiyuan to play Dark Side of the Moon with her, which was equivalent to showing the multiplayer effect of this game to the players and the audience.

After the game started running, there was an exclamation of exclamation immediately below.

After the development team gained experience, they did better and better. The overall art quality of "Pokémon 3D World: Dark Side of the Moon" that was exhibited at the exhibition this time has been improved a bit, and the plush material is even better. The look and feel really skyrocketed.

The 3D feel of the entire game is very strong, and the game performance has become smoother.

Especially when Lisa Asano and Qing Zhiyuan demonstrated the unique gravity system of the moon, the audience was stunned.

"Wow, there's also a change in gravity, isn't it so interesting?"

"I originally thought that the previous Pokémon 3D World was colorful enough, but I didn't expect that the moon effect this time would be quite explosive."

"It's really interesting to be able to combine game functions with the characteristics of the moon itself."

"I'm just playing this game now. I don't know when it will be released. It's really anxious."

"Just wait a minute. Look at Square's Final Fantasy 7. It is said that it will not be released until the end of the year at the earliest. I don't know when Pokeni's game will be released."

“By the time we see P’s advertisement, the game will be on the shelves soon.”

"I'm really looking forward to it. I will definitely buy one when the time comes and go home to play with my daughter."

…

After the demonstration of Pokémon Dark Side of the Moon, the entire scene was quiet, and everyone was eagerly awaiting the next highlight.

"Since the demonstration is based on the order of performances given by Mr. Hisaishi Joe, then the next game should be "Princess Mononoke", right?"

"Well, it should be."

"What if pokeni suddenly postpones the ticket? Keep it mysterious and not publicize it?"

"Then I definitely can't bear it. No matter what, I have to let P Agency demonstrate it today, otherwise I'll go up and get blood splattered in five steps!" This audience member is actually a China expert, and even knows the words "blood splattered in five steps".

Qing Zhiyuan smiled calmly and said, "Next is the last game we will bring. It will also be displayed and tried out at the game show. You can look forward to it."

"Before I introduce this game, I have to say a few words."

"Thank you to Studio Ghibli, thank you to Mr. Hayao Miyazaki, thank you to Mr. Joe Hisaishi, and thank you to Mr. Miichi Yara. It is precisely because of talented and hard-working geniuses like them who come together that such a great film can be born. work."

After hearing this, the audience below had already guessed something.

The scene immediately became excited.

"Princess Mononoke!"

"Princess Mononoke!!!"

…

"Master Hayao Miyazaki can hand over such a work to pokeni and into our hands. In fact, both me and the team members are extremely excited, but at the same time, there is a lot of pressure on our shoulders. Also very huge.

We're not sure we can do a game like this well.

However, we will work hard to make this game better and do our best to prevent Studio Ghibli and Master Hayao Miyazaki from wasting their hard work.

Next, "Princess Mononoke", I hope you like it! "

After Qing Zhiyuan finished speaking, he automatically stepped aside.

The audience burst into applause.

The reason why many people are sitting here today is to wait for this moment, to see with their own eyes what this so-called 3+2D game is like.

And all this is happening.

In the picture, the wind blows through the waves of wheat, and among the vast expanses of green, the male protagonist is riding a deer with long antlers and walks slowly past.

The background sound is the Princess Mononoke song played by Joe Hisaishi before.

A serious and sacred monologue sounded in the game:

"A long time ago, this country was covered by large forests."

"In this land, there live gods who have existed since ancient times."

After the camera zooms in, the male protagonist's back is facing the audience, and it looks like he is playing the game from the male protagonist's perspective.

However, the picture is so beautiful, and the overall feeling is very animated, that the audience can't tell whether it is a game recording or an animation.

"Is this a movie?"

"Are you showing a movie clip?"

"Is this a spoiler? Does Studio Ghibli allow them to release the movie content in advance like this?"

"Look carefully, it doesn't seem like a movie."

"Didn't you notice that the whole process was from the rear-end perspective, following the hero's movements?"

"It seems to be true."

The hero rides a long-horned deer called Yaklu from the grassland, then to the forest and then to the top of the mountain...

As the camera continued to advance, everyone discovered this:

The part that pokeni is showing now definitely cannot be the content of the movie, because the movie will not spend that much time to create a relatively continuous experience segment.

Then it can only be animation produced by pokeni himself.

"It's amazing. I'm willing to give 9 points for this promotional performance. If the actual content of the game can reach this level, it will be too explosive."

"What are you thinking about? How can this effect be achieved on a game console?"

"Yeah, this is obviously..."

The person who spoke opened his mouth. He originally wanted to say that it looked like a 2D animation, but it had an inexplicable 3D feeling.

But when the words came to his mouth, he choked.

I don't know why, but there is a strange illusion in my heart.

I always feel like something is not quite right.

…

The promotional video for Princess Mononoke has finished playing.

Qing Zhiyuan took the microphone and looked at the audience below with a smile.

At this moment, this is the stage for pokeni.

"The content you just saw was recorded and processed by us through the performance in the game, so it doesn't seem like there is much plot content."

How could there be plot content?

Miyazaki-senpai, can’t you kill me?

It would be great if it can have a publicity effect. Everyone has to buy tickets to watch it in the cinema.

"What?!"

As soon as Qing Zhiyuan said these words, there was an explosion below.

"How is this possible? It doesn't look like the effect of a game, does it?"

"That's right. I think it should be an animation scene, right?"

"Can games do this?"

"How big does this game have to be?"

…

However, this was not the most surprising thing. The actual demonstration that followed at the scene was what really shocked everyone's jaws.

After Shinji Mikami was invited to the stage by Qing Zhiyuan, he began the actual operation of Princess Mononoke.

Everyone stared intently at the big screen, just wanting to see what the specific game looked like.

After the game started, Shinji Mikami controlled the male protagonist Ashitaka to walk on the grass.

Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed:

"Nani?! Is this really a game?"

"It's a game, but where is the 3D? I clearly see only 2D effects."

"This 2D effect alone is actually top-notch. It almost perfectly displays Hayao Miyazaki's personal painting style."

"Look at this forest, the grass on the ground, the white clouds in the sky... the whole performance is beautiful, it's Hayao Miyazaki for sure."

"Wow, it really feels like watching a movie."

"Yes, this is indeed Hayao Miyazaki's style."

"But, is this the legendary 3+2D? I am not convinced."

While the audience praised the good visual effects, they also questioned it. They always felt that this kind of game is not a pure 2D game, but the perspective is biased towards the personal perspective of the male protagonist.

But there is no 3D feeling.

So where do we start talking about 3+2?

Shinji Mikami smiled and then moved the joystick.

As the camera turns, the surrounding scenes also change, but these are all continuous, just like you are really in the world of Princess Mononoke and turning around.

With this operation, everyone's Tianling Cap was blown away.

"Nani?! What did I just see?"

"Is it possible to perform such rotation in a 2D scene?"

"It doesn't seem possible. Isn't 2D just a film? If you turn it, the film will become a very thin distortion effect."

"Then this is..."

Everyone felt incredible because they discovered a terrible fact——

When Shinji Mikami rotates the perspective and interacts, no matter what angle he looks at, this is a very perfect 2D animation effect.

As long as Mikami stops, you'll feel like you're watching a Hayao Miyazaki animated movie.

However, as we all know, 2D cannot achieve such a continuous effect.

Then, there is only one possibility——

"It's scary, this is really a 3+2D performance effect!"

"Yeah, before that I was still thinking about what 3+2 was, but now I finally understand."

"This is so awesome. It can make the game reach this level."

“Indeed, I can’t even imagine how terrifying creativity is required to achieve this performance, as well as how strong technical capabilities are required.

Isn’t pokeni’s production team too strong? "

…

Not only were the audience’s jaws dropped in surprise, but the colleagues below were also dumbfounded.

If it weren't for Shinji Mikami still conducting real-machine demonstrations, no one would believe that all this is true.

Square's president Masashi Miyamoto saw this and silently patted Kutaragi Ken's arm next to him.

"How is this done? This can't be true, right? Why is it obviously a 3D game, but it shows the effect of an animated movie?"

Kutaragi Ken also looked confused.

"I, I don't know either."

"Didn't you develop the game console?"

"We are right in developing it, but the hardware support and the actual effect are definitely two different things. What we provide is just a tool, just plasticine, but the specific shape and color it is kneaded into are completely pokeni. My own business."

"horrible."

Miyamoto Masashi rubbed his arms and felt a chill all over his body, and goosebumps appeared all over his body.

Originally, at the Tokyo Game Show this time, Square opened the door to future 3DRPGs with Final Fantasy 7. Masashi Miyamoto himself was very proud.

However, when he saw "Princess Mononoke" brought by P Agency at the scene, he felt like he was being slapped in the face by a tsunami.

That kind of momentum and pressure was simply terrifying.

Miyamoto Masashi silently estimated in his heart.

The soft power demonstrated by pokeni today is at least five years ahead of them.

That’s terrible. What kind of company is this? !

…

After demonstrating some battle content in the game, Shinji Mikami stopped at the right time.

If the demonstration continues, it will take up too much time.

It’s best to just click on it, and leave the rest to the players and viewers to figure it out.

“This is the animation rendering effect we finally created after the research we conducted to make this game, so that the experience and look and feel of the game can be close to the feeling of animation.

Of course, it is definitely impossible to reach the movie level, but maybe in 5 or 10 years, we will be able to do it. "

Qing Zhiyuan said proudly.

To put it bluntly, this game is ultimately a 3D game.

The rendering technology used in this game is animation rendering, which can be regarded as Qing Zhiyuan's specialty. He was an animation rendering engine in his previous life.

It's really nothing to be able to do this now.

According to Qing Zhiyuan, there is still a long way to go.

However, even the tip of the iceberg is enough to shock the whole world.

The audience was all stunned with surprise, and Miyamoto Masashi still hasn't been able to figure out how such a magical effect is achieved.

…

At this point, all games brought by pokeni have been demonstrated.

Waves of warm applause erupted from the audience.

Stay for a long time.

"Wow, it's really worth it to attend the Tokyo Game Show this year!"

…
