  Monster... Hunter?

  It's really a fairly straightforward name.

  "As you can see, this is a game of hunting monsters, and what this game highlights is a sense of oppression. When you face really powerful creatures, you only have the most traditional attack moves. If you are interested In the carnival, the demo area of ​​Monster Hunter has already been opened, but I want to tell everyone that this game may not be suitable for everyone."

  Before deciding to make Monster Hunter, Take Yuxing actually did it. Be mentally prepared.

  Because Monster Hunter was really a very niche game in the beginning.

  It's just that this game has cultivated a group of very loyal players. They will spend thousands of hours on this game without any fatigue, even if they hunt repeated monsters again and again, they will still enjoy it.

  This game will also be a very long-term front, which will bring the core players to themselves better.

  Hayakawa Ueto looked at the live broadcast carefully.

  Then he looked at the head of his game development team.

  "Have you seen any features from this game?"

  The person in charge of game development said with a bitter face: "This is just a game preview, we can't see anything at all, but according to what Zhu Yuxing said Yes, this game should be a game with a certain degree of difficulty, which will filter out many ordinary players."

  After all, the vast majority of players are not the type who like to be abused, they prefer to find fun in a relaxed game environment.

  That's why the simple platform jumping game Super Mario is so popular, and the story is beautiful, but the difficulty can also be adjusted by itself, such as Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and so on.

  But so far there doesn't seem to be a really hard game.

  And Zhu Yuxing seems to be ready to break this routine and start to develop some games with a certain degree of difficulty.

  However, many companies have tried to launch such very difficult games before, especially arcade games. In order to deceive more players with coins, they will forcibly increase the difficulty of the game.

  However, the feedback for this kind of behavior is generally negative, and there are still a few players who are willing to abuse themselves.

  Therefore, Suri's games are also going in a simpler direction.

  But when he turned his head, Zhu Youxing suddenly made a game with a certain degree of difficulty, and also reminded the players in advance to let them take it easy, which is really confusing.

  "President, do we need to follow up on this game? Do we want to make something similar?"

  Hayakawa Ueto shook his head: "Don't need it for now, look at the reactions of the players at the scene, they seem to be just attracted by the game's graphics. From a point of view, it seems that we should make games with more refined graphics, by the way, how much has the game screen been tackled?"

  The person in charge of game development immediately replied: "Our latest game has already used it. The latest data resources provided by Unreal Engine, this time the data resources have greatly improved our game graphics."

  "Still using Unreal Engine? I didn't say before that if possible, develop our own game engine as much as possible. The

  person in charge of development said with an embarrassed look: "It's not that we don't want to do it, but our manpower is already a little short. If we can expand the developers and invest more budget, we can develop our games. engine."

  In recent times, Ueto Hayakawa has increasingly felt the need to break free from the shackles of Unreal Engine.

  After all, this is Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's business, not its own. The value of each game developed by itself will be uploaded to the Unreal Engine team without reservation. Intermittently providing game development values ​​is a huge loss.

  Until now, he finally realized why Zhu Yuxing agreed to use their engine in the first place.

  This is the purest numerical monopoly. Unreal Engine has cultivated a behemoth with the input of countless developers.

  And this behemoth now has a vaguely absolute dominance.

  This is really not what Hayakawa Ukito wanted to see.

  Hayakawa Zhiren said cruelly: "I will find a way to inject more funds into you next. Now the game team has begun to make profits, and we have some capital to develop the game engine. It is necessary for us to create our own games. The engine is up."

  With Hayakawa's assurance, the person in charge was still a little reluctant.

  Seriously, he's used to Unreal Engine.

  Now Unreal Engine is really super easy to use, and the functions are very user-friendly.

  Moreover, the Unreal Engine team will continue to improve according to some special requirements of its own side, and the speed of improvement is called a fast.

  If I use Unreal Engine now, I am a customer, and I am someone the Unreal Engine team needs to serve continuously.

  But if they develop their own new engine, they have to start all over again, and it's definitely not as easy to use as Unreal Engine.

  But this is the president's request, and they can only comply.

  "By the way, I found that this Monster Hunter's character moves very smoothly, how did it do this?"

  Hayakawa Ueto asked suddenly staring at the screen.

  At this moment, the demo content of Monster Hunter has been broadcast on live TV.

  Take Yusei himself acted as a narrator to try out the hunter with the big sword.

  The hunter started fighting on the big map looking for powerful monsters.

  From this battle scene, everything is really real, as if a whole new world was created out of thin air.

  Everything fits very well with the rules of physics.

  This kind of adjustment of the game action numerical value also gave him an amazing feeling.

  So how is this action value created? It's the thing he's most curious about.

  "This... I'm afraid it's the secret weapon of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment. There is no relevant data provided in Unreal Engine for these values. It should be the secret of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment."

  The person in charge of game development is also very envious of the demo Smooth movement of monsters and characters.

  Sadly he's pretty sure these values ​​don't exist in Unreal Engine.

  Of course, the movement values ​​in Unreal Engine are also very realistic, but compared to the movement of this monster hunter, it is still a bit worse.

  Hayakawa Zhito sighed and said, "This is the advantage of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment. They will always be one step ahead of us. This is impossible."

  To win this console war, you must first find a way to improve the quality of the game. Just get close to Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

  "President, I don't think this is worth worrying too much about. We should actually work on the picture, at least that's what we can do now."

  At this time, the head of the team in charge of marketing said.

  "Why do you say that?"

  "Because according to our marketing team's research, players are more interested in games with excellent and exquisite graphics, and improving the quality of the game is also the easiest thing to do, as long as the performance of the game console reaches , we can make the picture infinitely realistic, which is also the most cost-effective way."

  Hayakawa Ueto does not particularly approve of this kind of thing.

  He still feels that the innovative and powerful game development technology of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is the right way.

  But the marketing team is also right. According to the price/performance ratio, the picture is exquisite enough, and the game quality is the most cost-effective.

  After hesitating for a moment, Hayakawa Ueto said: "Let's continue to work on the development of the core technology of the game. Of course, the visual performance cannot be put down, but it is only a secondary position."

  The head of the marketing team wanted to say something, but Was stopped by Hayakawa Ueto.

  He has made up his mind that he cannot be easily influenced.

  Meanwhile, Monster Hunter's in-game presentation at the Carnival venue is over.

  Most of the game's trailers have also finished playing.

  For players, the news they most want to get has basically been announced.

  "Yin-chan, can you slow down a bit? How come you've never seen you so focused on something in the past?" "It's the two of you who are too slow, it's so interesting here, don't you   have

  any interest?"

In the middle, the three girls are constantly shuttled.

  All three girls are wearing Japanese classic sailor uniforms.

  Oon-chan's eyes looked around without blinking.

  She was already a little dazzled.

  The game-related stuff around is so fascinating.

  Otome-chan, Kazumi, and Aiko have been good friends since childhood. The three of them played together in middle school when they were about four or five years old.

  Among them, Aiko is the smartest, often taking the first place in her grade.

  Tone-chan and Kazumi are much worse than Aiko, so Aiko often gives them two make-up lessons.

  One day, Aiko, who has always liked to study, suddenly took out a handheld computer at their study meeting.

  Aiko said she got it from a boy she had known since she was a child, and said it was a bet that she would get an obedient sidekick after completing the challenge of a game.

  Finally, through the unremitting efforts of the three people, Aiko completed the bet.

  All this was supposed to be a small episode.

  But I don't know what's going on, since Ome-chan has experienced Fruit Ninja, her interest in video games has grown out of control.

  Originally, video games were something that most boys liked, but Ome-chan especially liked it.

  She has always had the image of an iceberg beauty, but she has an extraordinary obsession in front of games.

  Then, when she learned that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment was going to hold a carnival, she did not hesitate to call her two best friends and come to the carnival together.

  This is really very rare at carnivals.

  Ninety percent of the players who come here are male players.

  At least 90% of the remaining 10% of women are accompanied by male partners, and they may not actually have any interest in video games themselves.

  People like Yin-chan can only be regarded as a minority.

  "Aiko, I found out that this guy Oon-chan will be completely bewitched by the game. Should we find a way to get her out of this addiction?"

  Kazumi and Aiko followed behind the fast-moving Ome-chan , the two talk to each other.

  Tone-chan ignored the discussion between the two behind, and continued to focus on watching the interesting games around.

  The three of them had come to the demo area on the second floor at this time, and the sound sauce was switching between different demo games at a frequency of almost three minutes at a time, as if she would never know how tired she was.

  Aiko, who looked like a schoolmaster, shook her head and said, "I don't think it's necessary. Did you forget that Ome-chan made math problems that I couldn't even solve in order to play the game? She is very talented in learning, but she just didn't care all the time, but now she is willing to bet with us because of playing games, and she is willing to study hard for the game, so I think this is a good thing."

  He Mei muttered: "But I always It feels like she will be addicted, and without the two of us staring at her, she will probably become a complete waste house in Heisei."

  Aiko said: "Then we should be together all the time, even in college. , isn't it?"

  "Well... that's the problem, you know my head, I'm the dumbest of the three of us, and I may not be able to get into the same university as you."

  When he said this, Kazuya was a little frustrated.

  She is the dumbest among the three, and sometimes she really has low self-esteem.

  "Don't say that, trust me, I will try my best to get you better grades, we will definitely be admitted to the same university by then."

  "Aiko, Kazuya, have you two finished talking? Let's move on to the next one. The place, let's make an agreement, I'll make the decision today, and for this reason I'm in the top ten of the grade."

  "Okay, I will listen to you."

  Aiko took Kazumei's hand and said, "We are a lifetime. Friends, this will never change." The

  three finally came to a new casual game trial area together.

  The name of the game here is Bejeweled, and it is a very light game.

  The development of the game is under the name of Zhuyouxing, so there are many players here.

  However, most players are just scratching their heads, and they are not very interested in such a simple and mindless game.

  But Aiko and Kazumi liked it, because it was just right for the two of them who had no talent for games.

  Tone-chan tried it out for a while and then it was boring.

  "Huh? Aiko? Kazumi? And Yin-chan, why are the three of you here?"

  At this moment, a boy's voice sounded.

  Aiko turned her head and saw that it was the guy she had known since childhood, Tian Chong.

  It was no surprise to see Tian Chong Aiko here. After all, this is the carnival of players. If Tian Chong didn't come, it would be abnormal.

  "What? Can't we come?" Aiko asked rhetorically.

  "That's not true. It's just really surprising. I thought you weren't interested in video games."

  "Video games aren't that difficult, don't forget, I beat you on Fruit Ninja."

  Tian Chong's face immediately flushed: "It's just that I didn't play Fruit Ninja seriously, that kind of game doesn't work at all. I don't play it, I absolutely have to play the kind of very hardcore, very difficult, like monster hunter."
