There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning Chapter 281

  Chapter 281 Steampunk

   "Mocap studio?"

  Lin Yao was a little surprised when she heard what Chen Qiuwen said.

  In fact, she has been thinking about this.

  She also has a deep understanding of the efficiency of motion capture technology. In her previous life, she worked on game original painting, so she also understands the situation of domestic game companies.

  It's similar to here. There are not many opportunities to use it in normal times. Most of the work is done by manual k-frames. If you can't solve it, you will think of motion capture.

  Even if it is a goose farm, it will only use motion capture to make opening animations on some masterpieces.

  For example, the title animation of God of War.

  But in the next few years, more and more motion capture was used in games, and its position in game development became more and more important. In games like "Detroit: Become Human", motion capture actors even became popular.

  In fact, Lin Yao has been thinking about whether it is time for Linmu Studio to set up a motion capture department.

  Because she's just one person.

  With the expansion of the forest studio, there may be a demand for this in the future, and it will be huge.

   "Yes." Chen Qiuwen nodded, unable to hear the strong curiosity revealed in Lin Yao's words.

  He was still anxiously waiting for a reply.

  He was really worried.

  Because of empathy, it is impossible for him to agree...

  Lin Yao also noticed it. She temporarily put aside the matter of the motion capture studio, and turned around to pick up the plan that Chen Qiuwen took out.

   "Let's talk about this."

"…it is good."

  Lin Yao then had a detailed chat with Chen Qiuwen about the project.

  How do you want to do it, what kind of end result, how to play, what type, how to design...

  Mu Wanqing glanced at Lin Yao, smiled, and then quietly left to go about her own business.

  Lin Yao and Chen Qiuwen chatted for about an hour and a half.

  Chen Qiuwen chatted more and more smoothly, and finally said almost all of his thoughts without reservation.

  Lin Yao finished listening, and then flipped through the proposal he gave.

  I think this game is completely feasible.

   Actually, this is a good thing.

   people, especially workers.

   It is normal to work with wages.

  But it is a bit ideal, and it is actually a good thing to want self-realization.

   Otherwise, you will become numb when you are doing work, and your enthusiasm will retreat. No matter how high the salary is, after the basic needs are met, dawdling will become the norm.

but.

  Although it is completely feasible.

   But the game is almost interesting.

  Lin Yao has played a lot of games by herself. This game is qualified, but it is probably quite difficult to make people shine. The only thing that feels particularly good is the setting of the witch.

  Referring to legends, Chen Qiuwen fabricated a race of witches, and also described the habits and lifestyles of the ethnic group in detail, which is quite novel.

  But Lin Yao personally thinks that she can add some more eye-catching things to it.

   "It's good, but..."

  Lin Yao nodded, and then asked: "You only talk about the Victorian period in your world view, are you simply setting the stage in that period?"

   "Eh... Actually, I haven't thought about it yet." Chen Qiuwen scratched his head.

  This aspect is not his strong point, so he only cares about conceiving game content.

   "Okay... Actually, it can be like this, let me make a suggestion."

  Lin Yao thought for a while, turned around, suddenly pulled out a piece of A4 paper, and started to draw.

  Chen Qiuwen took a look with his head, and then waited patiently.

   Fifteen minutes later.

  Lin Yao turned around again and showed Chen Qiuwen the sketch she drew.

  It was a 'soldier', and it didn't look like a soldier, because his lower body was not a human leg, but an ultrlong mechanical leg armor full of steel beauty...

  This tall, weird but handsome soldier stands on the leg armor, holding a crossbow in his right hand and a projectile in his left hand, and seems to be roaring.

  Beside the soldier, there is still a knife drawn.

  However, the difference from ordinary knives is that this knife has two forms, one is the normal form, and the other is folded, leaving only the handle.

"…what is this?"

  Chen Qiuwen looked at the soldier in a daze.

   From his limited knowledge, on a scientific level.

   This thing is just a joke.

   But it is indeed full of industrial aesthetics, very handsome!

   "Soldier."

  Lin Yao raised the A4 paper and handed it to him, and then said, "I wonder if you've heard of steampunk?"

   "Steampunk?" Chen Qiuwen looked at the A4 paper given by Lin Yao again and was greatly shocked.

   "Steam refers to large-scale machinery powered by steam engines, and punk is a non-mainstream fringe culture. You can simply understand it as a special kind of overhead world."

Lin Yao explained: "I think, "The Witch" can use the nineteenth century as the background, and then assume that there is a new technology in the industrial age, showing a new and different world, such as the coexistence of advanced and backward, magic and science. , some people are driving robots to fight, and some people are using magic...

  For example, this soldier can be set like this. Have you seen the jar behind him? That's whale oil, and this pair of leg mechanical armor is powered by whale oil.

   "The Witch" is a world where witches and humans coexist. There is magic, but there is also such a black technology that cannot exist in reality, primitive and advanced.

  19th century industrial revolution, gears, pistons, bearings and... witches.

   Probably the key words are these. "

  Zhang Qiuwen's eyes widened again.

   This sounds like bullshit.

  But I don't know why, but I always feel very emotional.

   And yes.

   Witches are hypothetical.

   Then why not assume a... nineteenth century kingdom with black technology?

   This moment.

  Zhang Qiuwen thought a lot, and all kinds of ideas popped up.

   "How is it?" Lin Yao asked.

   "Cool, really cool. Your idea is really cool."

  Chen Qiuwen sighed: "Sure enough, I'm still far behind. I'll go back and think about it, Mr. Lin."

   "Thinking about what?"

Lin Yao was a little funny: "Join the witch, I was just giving you a suggestion. Your plan is pretty good, let's try it out. After all, Greenlight provides technical support to other third parties, and its own studio It's just stupid for someone inside to want to make a game with potential and get stuck on purpose."

  Chen Qiuwen was stunned: "..."

"You can put "Fantasy OL" aside for the time being. This is a new project, and you are in charge of the team. You should coordinate with Zhong Xiu and Ms. Mu, but I don't think there will be so many people available for you in the short term. I've been very busy recently. "

  Lin Yao went over the recent workload of the studio: "Also, in terms of budget, you can give me an approximate amount, and give it to Ms. Mu..."

   "Mr. Lin agreed!? Will Mr. Lin also participate in the project? Will he definitely participate?"

  Zhang Qiuwen suddenly came back to his senses, interrupted Lin Yao directly, and asked in surprise and expectation.

  Lin Yao was a little speechless: "You are the leader, don't want me to be a coolie before the project starts, and you don't need my deep participation..."

  Chen Qiuwen was a little embarrassed: "It's not a coolie, it's the core. The steampunk that Mr. Lin said just now is really interesting, but I'm not good at worldview, and I only have a rough impression of the steampunk you mentioned..."

   "Okay, of course I will support you."

  Lin Yao shook her head with a chuckle.

  In fact, the studio's Vaporwave game platform has reached this point, and it is indeed time to make a masterpiece in the true sense.

   There must be a signboard.

   "The Witch" is good, the concept is very interesting, if you add the steampunk style of "Dishonored", by the way, let's learn from the cool ability endowed by the mark of the outsider.

  I feel that it has great potential.

"thanks."

  Seeing the healing smile on Lin Yao's face, Chen Qiuwen suddenly calmed down, bowed his head slightly and whispered thank you.

  When he said this, he didn't dare to let Lin Yao see his face.

   Finally.

   I have worked in a small company for so many years.

  Finally, an opportunity came to us in Linmu Studio.

  Chen Qiuwen really had mixed feelings.

  He felt that perhaps the most correct decision he made in his life was to jump ship and come to Linmu Studio.

   "Thanks and no need."

  Lin Yao smiled, and continued: "Let's talk about the motion capture studio."
