Game Market 1983

EP. 8: Sponsor Game (5)

A very big and cool title song came out, and I slowly started playing the game in contrast to the attacking house he gave me.

First of all, there was a level to this game.

So we don't just go into caves near the town. You had to level up by catching the weaker monsters around town.

Once I got used to catching monsters around me, I was able to survive like I did in the cave for the first time.

Characters that get stronger as you level up. And I quickly fell in love with the story of the warrior heading to the tower to find the missing children in town.

The story of Dragon Warrior 4 was a very unusual Omnibusian story at the time as an RPG. Chapter 1 was the story of the warrior Ryan. Chapter 2 was the story of the princess who dreamed of fighting in the realm of San Maria. Chapter 3 was the story of the arms dealer Tolneco. Chapter 4 was the story of the daughter. And it was only until the final chapter, chapter 5, that the protagonist came out.

In early chapter 5, when my girlfriend transformed herself into a warrior using magic to save a warrior, I saw a story that led to her death instead, and I mourned in my room alone.

Since then, BGM in the protagonist village has been so sad that he sometimes stops by the ruined protagonist's village while playing the game, and he can imagine what the protagonist and his colleagues talked about in the ruined space.

In the era of poor graphics, there was little fun to cover with imagination.

Oh, wait a minute. The story's gone somewhere else...

Anyway, in the time of the blindness of Japanese, the main character's name was unified as "Aaaah."

because the beginning of the first line of language starts with "Ah."

I can't even read what he wrote anyway, but what did he care what his name was... When the door to the development room opened, a man in his early 30s came in.

“Aigoo, hello!”

“Ahhh!! Toroyama!! There you are.”

“I stopped by here to inspect Dragon Warrior 2. ”

Hmm! Toriyama, the writer of the Dragon Ball, is here? I quickly put the pad down on the table and stood up.

Toroyama, who met me in the eye, asked me to shake his hand knowing that I was an employee from Mintendo.

“Ah, you're the employee from Mintendo. What's your name?"

“I'm Kang Jun-hyuk. Within Mintendo, he is responsible for the department regarding the new console. ”

“You look very young, and you're already the manager of a department. ”

“I'm enjoying reading your dragon bowl. ”

In fact, I prefer Slamdungk, but I don't have to tell you that in 1986, Toroyama was just over 30 years old.

He will be responsible for the illustrations of all the Dragon Warrior series, and will continue to connect with Phoenix as a character designer in the future.

Wouldn't it be bad to know someone like this? After shaking hands with Toroyama, I went back to the inspection with the other developers.

In fact, the yard was already hit by the first one, so the inspection of the second one didn't matter.

Mintendo's inspection isn't about digging through the bugs in this game. This was because it was about knowing if the game had a framework to play or not.

“You got all the bugs, right? ”

Then Yuji, the main director, nodded his head in my question.

Any company would pay a lot of attention to bugs because there were bugs that could not progress after cartridge production.

“The main character was alone in the book, but you can start partying this time. I thought the battle would be easier, but I'm secretly nervous because my enemies are tuned up. ”

“We've added stories to each of our colleagues to build rapport. I think users will like it. ”

As a game developer, you have to think of the user first. In that regard, Yuji, the main director of the Dragon Warrior, was a very thorough planner.

“You're close to a perfect score in the palm tree review, so you're left with a big bang after the launch. ”

“I'm looking forward to it, but do you think you'll be able to create the quintessential Carine landscape? I was in the field at the time, and they were really reacting. Did you know that the 500 gold cartridges we gave you are trading for 20-30,000 yen in Amri? ”

“Some unconscious store owners didn't sell their stuff on time, so they left it out. That kind of store is where we cut off all our deliveries at the same time. In any case, it is unacceptable to bully users. ”

Toroyama and Yuji nodded as they agreed with me. After checking the system for about 2 hours, when I got up, Yoo Ji asked me with excited eyes.

“I'm sorry Joon-Hyuk came to examine me personally, but can I ask you a simple question? ”

You said he wasn't looking forward to it either, so what if he looks at me like that after the inspection? I'll be a moment.

“Hmm, can I be honest? ”

“Oh, yes. Absolutely.”

“I don't know what's so interesting about it. ”

“Yes?”

“Well, of course, my colleagues have a great system, a new way to sail, but it's not as productive as it's been for a year. ”

“Oh, I see.”

“Don't tell me there aren't two protagonists coming out of the third act, too? The main story of the Dragon Warrior is all about the story of the warrior who defeats the Demon King, so you might want to be careful, as the series continues to get less interesting. I'm just saying, as a gamer who enjoyed playing the Dragon Warrior... Well, I think it would be fun to make the story omnibus. ”

“Omnibus format..? ”

“For example, three stories that everyone's been waiting for are actually much older than one, feeling like the beginning of a warrior legend? ”

“Ah!! That's fine!! Similar worldviews, but with the last ending, the story of 1 again!! Brilliant!! Very good!! You have a unique sense, as I've heard from Shigeru. This has been a reference.”

What? Shigeru and Yuji knew each other... In fact, Shigeru's initial opinion on the inspection of this business trip was also his suggestion. Everyone's busy these days, so when I said I was going, I had a weird look on my face, and it just meant...

&

In Shinkansen, returning to Kyoto, I opened the game & watch where the man next to me fell asleep. Pressing the play button on the sponsored game started to remind me of messages.

- An acquaintance with Toroyama has been created. -

- An acquaintance with the milkmaid has been created. -

-Youji's appeal has increased by 3 points. When you reach 10 points, the relationship will rank up. -

It's a mindless game!

I get chicken fat just thinking about how much I like men. Suddenly, I was trembling all of a sudden and looked at the people I had met one by one.

As expected, Mr. Gunpei and Mr. Shigei were maintaining the highest rank of friendship.

"All the fucking men."

In the '80s, however, how many female producers... I stopped the page in Camouflage's face as I turned the page, returning my taste.

It was because unlike other people, there was a speech bubble next to their face.

‘It's like seeing the status message of Kato's favorite phone in 2015..’

I clicked on Kamauchi's speech bubble with a bleeding smile.

- Kang Jun-hyuk is a very capable but dangerous person who doesn't know what he's doing. We shouldn't raise him too much. -
