Tokyo Gentleman Story

Chapter 575: The summit of the gentleman industry (part 2)

Refurbishing the previous games to the win platform, in fact, many manufacturers' new games will do this.

Although Japan is not a foreign platform, this can be seen from the future experience of X wave X, but the popularity of PC is the general trend, unless these people don't want to make money, otherwise the game that should be released will be given.

For example, these galgame manufacturers, many of them used to play games on pc98, which is unique to Japan, and then they started to play games on DOS and windows systems. One of the big reasons is that Japanese people like to play their own games. .

"I have seen your previous plan. This'trophies' system is very interesting. What is this?" Tada still spoke.

"I don't know if you have played our Guilty Crown. In the latest dlc, we have activated this trophy content. Simply put, it is what kind of choice the player has made or completed certain conditions, Achieve a certain kind of "achievement", this achievement is the player's trophy, and our game itself does not realize the PC binding, but the user binding, so this kind of trophy can always exist, it can be said that this is the player's proof. "

Speaking of this, Morinka paused. He once again looked around the dozen or so representatives sitting here. He continued: "As we all know, the Internet has always been on the rise in Japan. The market does not seem to have much impact, but it is not the case in the gentleman industry. The ani fan club is about to establish a sub-brand of adult games. We have done a series of market research and pc games are gradually becoming networked. It’s a trend."

Although the console party is very stubborn, everyone on the PC is still very enlightened. Although many game manufacturers in Japan stubbornly believe that games such as online games should also appear on the console, I have to say that the Japanese still have some ideas in this regard. Yes, games like the Stone Age are for a certain eastern country. These are all enlightenment games. In the future, there will indeed be sites like dmm doing 18x series online games on Japanese websites.

Hey, wait, games like the Stone Age seem to be very interesting, see if you want to contact Xiao Ma to get these, especially as an agent?

Although the network has the first mover advantage. But this is not to say that other talents are not needed, on the contrary, other talents are also very important. Whether it is ability or various aspects, this is very impressive.

Senxia thought about moving online games elsewhere. But there is still no perfect plan. I think about it now, the Stone Age should be about to come out, and then I can let Brother Xiaoma go

"Ahem." Morinka coughed, realizing that she was distracted, and then continued, "In short, in the Internet age, information interaction is a very important means. For players, trophies are proof that they have played this game. This can increase players’ urge to buy games."

Well, "Hi +1" or something is definitely a big killer for Steam. Even if you can't use it in Japan, you can get it abroad. If Morinka can handle it, you can also get it abroad.

"We will use a new platform to display our games. The cost of old games is almost nothing, and digital carrier games do not need to consume physical costs. Therefore, these old games can be almost equivalent to second-hand games at a price, even Selling at a lower price. And we can expand our sales by entrusting them to sell point cards, and the physical version has more special codes and commemorative significance than the pure digital version, so it will not affect the sales of the physical version ."

The above is a lip service. The sales of the digital version will definitely cause a decline in the sales of the physical version. But this does not mean that the profit of the game will decline. On the contrary, it is precisely because of the digital version that the sales of the game will increase.

Of course, players will also evolve, although the overall number of players has risen. But the number of pure gentleman gamers has indeed declined.

The industry is still in the period of gold and silver, but from the perspective of these people responding to Mori's call, everyone knows that they are not really at ease in their hearts, sales are indeed increasing, and gameplay is improving, but when 3d games begin After turning out to be born, the simple avg began to become a little weak.

The income of elf is still very high, but its influence in the entire gaming industry is declining. In the early nineties, elf can be said to be the best. Sony, Nintendo, it can be said to be at its peak. I didn't feel frustrated when I saw it. But after that brief time passed, the influence of the entire industry began to decline.

In other words, this is its prosperity, its death, and its suddenness. Although sales are increasing, the industry is truly declining. In the original history, if it hadn't been for a fate that suddenly became popular, it would have brought confidence to the industry, and the entire industry might have been sluggish, and profits might still be there, but the influence of the entire industry would definitely have declined.

Of course, this is not just a problem for the industry.

Taking advantage of the gap in speech, Morinka glanced at the people around him. Although these people can't be regarded as very typical Japanese, Morinka rushed to pack the tickets. Among these people, at least half of them inherited the Japanese. Tradition of death.

The internal conflict between the two clubs, elf and leaf, is a big punch to the industry.

And the Japanese are very creative, but sometimes it is difficult to carry forward. The simplest is Ranch Story. After entering 3D, the system of Ranch Story can be said to be more and more complicated, even complicated, but what people want to see is the original brisk 2D version of Ranch Story, so Although the sales of the Ranch Story series are increasing, the later "To (Mountain) Respect (Zhai Stardew Valley" which was born out of the sky can have a million sales, and the highest sales of Ranch Story itself doubled It's not as good as this work.

Of course, this is also related to the platform. It is only natural that 3ds is killed by the pc. Who told you to hold your handheld and not log in to the pc?

"Mr. Xia Sen has a great view of our industry. I know that there are some very wonderful gentlemen in the crown of crime. These ergonomic gentlemen are very good in content, and they don’t seem to be produced by a third party. Could it be Ms. Xia Sen An exploration of the future of gentlemen?" It is the representatives of i-club who are considered newcomers in the industry, but they seem to be more accepting of new things as they started with 3D.

Senxia nodded: "I think there are two futures for galgame, one is pure 2d traditional avg, and the other is similar to 3d interactive movie category, which expresses the game in the way of performance."

"3d interactive movie?"

Everyone looked at each other.

"With all due respect, Mr. Xia Sen. The effect of 3d is very poor, and the development cost is very high, which is actually not very helpful to us." The elf representative felt that this kind of remark was a bit absurd.

However, Mori Xia shook his head: "I think the current situation in our industry is very strange. The popularity of gentleman games was once in the early 1990s. The prosperity of the industry is even greater than that of other orthodox games. Prosperity, but the cost of games in the gentleman game industry has always been decoupled from profits. This is an abnormal phenomenon in itself."

In this regard, American interactive avg such as heavy rain and till dawn is an obvious example.

This kind of game is very similar to Japanese avg. Both are a process and some options, but the only difference is that American works make these pictures like movies. They use pictures instead of words to express.

The sales volume of Rainstorm, according to Mori Xia, seems to be 3 million, which is more than ten times the highest sales volume of galgame.

"Although this sentence is a bit offensive to all the seniors, if our industry does not have new ideas, the survival of the industry will be a huge problem. Personally, I think everyone agrees to make a small mess, it is better to sit together. Work together to develop a large-scale game."

He said that, but Mori summer actually didn’t want to do it overnight. Although everyone was thoughtful, the people from several other clubs, except for i-company, were uncomfortable with what Mori summer said. attitude.

"Of course, things need to be done step by step, just as the success of Kadokawa and Sega is not such a simple thing." Morinka naturally thought of Kadokawa and Sega, but the other people's ideas were different from Morinka.

After hearing what Senxia said, they thought of another possibility: maybe this "rich second-generation" could really do this?

But their thoughts and Senxia did not expect to be together.

"First of all, I think we can make a unified specification. In short, it is an industry self-discipline. Everyone must follow our rules. Another point is the new technology I want to talk about. It may be a difficult thing for us now, but getting 2d to move and interact with the player is not difficult."

That's right~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Finally, this is what Senxia wants to say, that is 2dlive, although it is not 3d, but this is a thing that can make 2d characters move.

"With 2d, gi is easy to implement, but it's useless?" Someone raised an objection.

Senxia shook his head: "It's not that kind of thing, but a new system. We can let the characters look at the position of our mouse, change their movements, even make them turn around and lift their skirts."

Hearing Senxia talking about this, everyone was stunned.

Hey, it seems really amazing

The most impressive thing in Ranch Story is the partner in Ore Town. Speaking of it, it was also an interesting era. The genuine gba of the country travels will be despised by people who use gba, and some people will not know the goods, saying it is a copycat or pirated version. of

Of course, the previous point of view is just casual complaints, but I do prefer Ore Town oo.
