Chapter 172 [Pokemon Project]
The questionnaire formulated by Tatsuno contains many questions. Although it does not seem to be very detailed, many things can be inferred from the answers.
Do you like elves?What are your thoughts on trainers?Do you want to fight with elves?Will you take the time to learn a little about elves?How much time do you spend on TV or gaming?do you like travel?What do you think prevented you from traveling?
These are the questions in the questionnaire developed by Tatsuno.
After the members gathered all the questionnaires together, the programmers began to count the answers to each questionnaire, and when all the results were integrated and analyzed, they would draw the conclusion that Tatsuno and the others wanted.These conclusions will play an extremely important role in the upcoming "Pokemon" project, because Tatsuno and the others must modify all aspects of the game "Pokemon" design based on these findings.
统计的结果很快就出来了：有99.5%的人喜欢小精灵；80%的人认为训练家很酷；67%的人想要和小精灵一起战斗；72%的人愿意花时间去了解小精灵有关的只是；37%的人每天会花一小时以上的人在电视或游戏上；66%的人喜欢旅行；52%的人认为是繁忙的工作阻碍了他们去旅行。
The results of such a survey are exciting. These members of the Siwon team have never thought that ordinary people are so yearning for traveling with elves, and "37% of people spend more than an hour a day in TV or games" This conclusion indicates that their games have a large potential market.
"Tatsuno, your original idea was correct, such games will really be popular." Lei Si said excitedly.
"Haha, originally I was just making a suggestion, but now that I see the results of the survey, I am more confident in the game "Pokemon." Tatsuno was also very happy at this time.
After the questionnaire, the game "Pokemon" was officially approved, and this game officially became the first product of Siwon Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
However, just establishing a project is still a long way from making a game. The things involved in a game are very complex.
Tatsuno naturally has the "Pokemon" games of various generations played in his previous life as references, but these things are only in his own head and others don't know about them. Now Tatsuno's task is to describe the games in his head. To the production staff present, let them understand what kind of game they are going to make.
"Everyone listen carefully to what I'm going to say next. I will tell you how the game I envision works, and then you will make the game "Pokemon" based on my description."
Akasaka was recording at the side, and Tatsuno cleared his throat and said: "According to my idea, the game "Pokemon" should be able to reflect the whole process of a trainer from starting to growing. From the very beginning of the game, the protagonist should be The local doctor picks up the original pixie scene, and he sets out to travel along a different route.
Whether the game adopts 2D mode or 3D mode has to wait until the software engineer and hardware engineer make a technical evaluation before deciding, which actually has little impact on the game "Pokemon".
The game map of "Pokemon" can be appropriately simplified by using the real city map, which can enhance the player's sense of substitution. "
Tatsuno paused for a while to let everyone digest what he said, ""Pokemon" can be regarded as a different kind of role-playing game, but in it the protagonist and elves have similar status. The most important thing is the map, the story line, and the gameplay. I just mentioned the map, and then everyone has to come up with a story line to promote the entire game.”
"I think gym battles can be used as the story line, the protagonist challenges gyms one by one, and then becomes stronger little by little." A software engineer said.
"It's a bit monotonous just like this. I think it's possible to join a villain organization. The protagonist can fight against the villain all the time on the way to travel, and finally defeat the villain." Akasaka added.
Lei Si also joined in: "You can also have partners or rivals who travel together."
Tatsuno nodded in satisfaction. This kind of thing is not difficult to think of because of the realistic reference. The suggestions made by these people can already form a storyline.
"Now that we have a map and a story line, let me talk about the gameplay." Tatsuno organized the language, "The protagonist will constantly subdue elves during the journey, and these elves will continue to fight because of the battle." As the elves grow up, they will also learn more powerful tricks while improving their level..."
Tatsuno tried his best to describe the gameplay of "Pokemon" in his previous life, and then asked the people present to make supplements.Everyone also put forward many useful suggestions based on their own experiences, and Akasaka recorded these things one by one.
The thirteen people discussed together for two days before finalizing some details of the entire "Pokemon", but at this time their work has just begun!
Based on what was discussed earlier, software engineers and hardware engineers made a technical evaluation of the game Pokémon.They told Tatsuno that the current technology can make 3D games, especially the 3D modeling of various elves. The Fujiwara family has been doing this work for a long time, and they can use the family information to simplify it. Use it at once.
This did not surprise Tatsuno. The level of technological development in the world of elves is still very high. Otherwise, how could those villains create all kinds of black technology products that could threaten the beasts.
"If it is made into a 3D game, will the cost of the game console be very high?" Tatsuno asked the question he was most concerned about.
The hardware engineers nodded, "The price is relatively high at present, but it should come down in a few years."
These elites never considered the issue of funds when they were in the Fujiwara family, so they were used to spending money, but Tatsuno had to consider the issue of cost.If the price of the game console is too high, there will be many fewer buyers, which is unacceptable for Siwon Manufacturing Company, which urgently needs to make a name for itself.
"Let's choose the 2D mode for the first version of the "Pokemon" game. After a few years, we will develop a follow-up version of the new 3D mode." Tatsuno made a decision immediately.
After knowing the environment required for the game to run, the hardware engineers can already start working, but the software engineers still have a lot of tasks.
What Tatsuno and the others discussed before were all conclusions drawn from observing the game from the perspective of a player, but as a game, the most important core of "Pokemon" is difficult for players to access, which is a lot of complicated mathematical model.
Racial values are part of these mathematical models. Others include attribute compatibility, damage calculation, probability of elves appearing, skill hit rate, and so on.These things are all calculated through rigorous mathematical models, and they are almost impossible.
It can be said that this mathematical modeling process is the most challenging for engineers, and every data must be carefully considered.
"The first thing we need to do now is to determine the race values of all elves, which is the basis of the "Pokemon" game." Tatsuno said in a deep voice.
"What is the racial value?" Everyone asked in confusion.
"The race value is the standard to measure the quality of elves in all aspects. It includes physical strength, attack power, defense power, special attack, special defense ability, attack speed, etc. Each elf has an initial race value, and then According to the improvement of the level, the improvement rate of various abilities is different."
"It is indeed a good way to describe the various attributes of elves with numerical values, but where can we get so much data?" A programmer said distressedly.
"That's right, even the family's database doesn't have such detailed data."
"Even if the family has these things, can they be easily given to us? If it is really possible to describe the abilities of the elves in such detail, then such information is definitely kept strictly confidential by the family. How could it be possible for us to show it with such fanfare? Woolen cloth?"
The programmer's words silenced everyone, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little depressing.
Racial value is the data core of the game "Pokemon". If there is no such thing, how can "Pokemon" be established?Like those fighting games, only the physical value and the damage value of various attacks are left?How can a game made in this way make people feel a sense of substitution?
Although Tatsuno had played the game "Pokemon" back then, it was impossible for him to memorize the distribution of all race values.He could inquire about these things through the system, and Tatsuno had planned to do so.But after hearing what this clansman said, Tatsuno immediately gave up his original idea of taking out the racial value data.
He hadn't thought about it before, but now he suddenly realized how precious this race value data is.
Nowadays, the research on many elves is only superficial. If Tatsuno talks about this racial value data now, it will definitely set off a huge wave.
But if you don't get this racial value, what about the game "Pokemon"?Is it just to give up such an excellent plan?
It wasn't until this time that Tatsuno suspected that maybe no one had thought of such an idea as "Pokemon" before, but data such as race value was a roadblock, firmly blocking these people out.
"Am I going to fail like those people too?" Long Ye secretly asked himself...
