Game Market 1983

< EP. 34: Tyrannosaur. (3) >

Opera in Final Frontier 6 was one of the events that emerged during the story, and the Empire's actress Cerissa was inspiring on the stage dressed as an actor.

It would have been an event originally made of midi sound, but I was able to use Raon's performance and know-how to paint the voice of a real musical actor into the game.

After a while, under the night sky on the screen. A simple narrative flows over her head in a fine dress...

The female protagonist, forced to marry the prince of the enemy army, stares up at the sky every night and misses his lover...

You, my dear.

Somewhere far away!

Eternal love that never fades,

I just took an oath!

Even when I'm sad,

Even when I'm in pain...

The star that shines in the night sky,

Consider it you!

unwanted covenants;

Do I have to?

What about me, you?

Answer me...

Consider. (In this area players actually move the character to dance with the vision of their loved one, and the man disappears leaving a bouquet of flowers.)

Thank you. Thank you.

My love!

At least once.

To me who was shaken...

Quiet and sweet.

Answer me.

Forever. Forever.

I'll be waiting for you.

The crowd in front of the Pentagon booth was just staring at the screen, throwing a bunch of flowers into the night sky as finale.

“W-what did we just see? ”

“I feel like I'm getting a twist in my chest.”

The Final Frontier was showing the extreme of modern 2D graphics over and over again in its sixth series. Eras are flowing into 3D games using polygons, but it is still early stages and it is difficult to express emotions delicately.

“Oh, good. 3D graphics aren't bad, but 2D is also a game...”

“I thought the last five times were pretty good graphics, but 6 is not really a joke. ”

The intensity of all the elements demonstrated in the 2D RPG was unique to each character, allowing them to enjoy different battles.

Like, for example, the character Matthew on the screen right now.

“Huff!! You use special skills as a command input method? ”

When I typed in the wave command in Street Fire 2, Mash was a character that I liked very much as a child.

Especially, the protagonists of Final Frontier 6 each had one story, and the vast story told to users was armed with over 20 hours of extravagant content.

Maybe that's when it started.

What was the rumour that the odd series on the Final Frontier focused on the new system and the even series focused on the story?

The opera scene in Series was enough to appease those who had come to Minten and Sensoni's conference, and the audience cheered for a calm round of applause after the promotional footage of the Final Frontier.

“Mr. President of Pentagon Soft, who is responsible for the development of Final Frontier 6. Please welcome Kawaguchi to the stage. ”

“Whoa!! ”

Luckily, Kawaguchi appeared on stage with a shy look on his face.

“Thank you for your support. I'm Hironobu Kawaguchi.”

Kawaguchi bowed and respectfully greeted the users gathered at the event and held the microphone in his hand.

“Actually, I've never been on a stage this big before, so I'm very nervous. So I'm honored to introduce you to the final frontier six that I created on a global stage. ”

When Kawaguchi finished, I looked at the spectators and added a brief description of the current CES conference.

“As demonstrated in Mintendo's Project 64 and Sensoni's Gear Station, the era of 3D gaming has taken place to deliver intense impact on a different level to date. The NEGA and Sensoni announced that they are launching a new breed at the end of the year, and Minten, who is now number one in the gaming industry, is also focusing on 3D gaming using polygon technology to suit the times. But we need to think a little bit differently. ”

In my remarks, the heads of the visitors gathered in the chairman began to tilt.

It was because they were already expressing themselves brilliantly enough to feel that the characters represented by polygons could no longer be glamorous.

In fact, I'm sure that as technology progresses and evolves, more graphics than this will seem hard to see, but as generations and generations pass, game graphics will start to evolve at enormous speeds.

There is no such thing as the eyes of a human being.

I have a puzzled look on my face. I open my mouth with a slight smile to the audience.

“Polygon technology is a newly born technology. Of course, computer graphics, called CG, has been enabled in the movie industry for a long time, but it's the first time in this generation that we've applied that technology to games. But 2D graphics technology, on the other hand, has made tremendous progress over the last 10 years. ”

Then, some of the spectators who noticed the intention I was about to say began to nod slowly.

“As you can see from your eyes, Final Frontier 6 has done a wonderful job of bringing together the atmosphere of the dark century's end. One day, I was watching the development of that final frontier, and I suddenly thought, ”

I was behind a horse, curling up one side of my mouth like I was enjoying the look on the crowd's faces that made me look crazy.

“The 2D Illustrator and the 3D Polygon... what happens when you put them together? ”

“Huh…? ”

“Hmm!? What's he saying? ”

People looked vaguely at me to see if I didn't understand what I was saying.

Polygons and Illustrations. The combination of these two extremes and polar tendencies that were not a match at all at all. It was a strange combination that could not be imagined by modern gamers who had just seen a real fighter.

“You don't seem to have any idea what I'm talking about. But don't worry. I don't know in America, but one of my favorite Eastern proverbs is, The white paper is a quote... which means I'd rather see it once than hear it 100 times. It means’. How about that? Very simple and accurate, right? ”

Looking at their reactions and looking toward the waiting room, Rob and Maurita were sending out OK signatures instead of Uchimura.

With a slight nod to their message, I took a step back with Mr. Kawaguchi and followed behind.

“Then enjoy it slowly. This is our new polygon technology in the Pentagon…”

You're not here with me anymore. but I always have you in my heart.-

(Even though I'm not with you anymore, I still miss you so much...)

“This line...”

“oh... my... god... the street I have left...?” (No way. A street without me!?)

“That won't do. Stop…”

“How many tears are you going to tear out of my eyes again!! ”

A flimsy finger sticking out towards a snowflake falling from the sky.

And the cold, windy hair...

The opening video of 'The Street Without Me’, which was called the best masterpiece in 1990, solidified the faces of the people gathered in front of the Pentagon booth.

As I smiled at their dazzled faces, I opened my mouth, covering my mouth slightly.

“Introducing the Tag Demo, which is the specification of the new Resident Console Project 'Complete Raon' in the Pentagon. ”

The street I have left, which is an English title of a street I don't have, will be painted on the screen in gorgeous handwriting, moments later. Then I came up with a phrase, and cheers burst from people's mouths again.

“Wooooo!! ”

-The full voice.-

This one sentence gave an explosive commendation to the CES audience.

“F-Full Voice!! ”

“So you can hear all the Hiro lines in real voice? ”

‘I still miss you so much.’ The elegance that was conveyed in a line of dialogue must have been remembered by users who had played a street without me.

However, Miyuki, the hero who appeared shortly afterwards, once again shocked people.

This is because, although it may seem a bit awkward, the image of her smiling at the player was clearly a 3D character.

“It's definitely a 3D character, I feel like I'm seeing a 2D illustration...”

“This is much nicer than the real fighter and the battlefield you saw earlier. ”

When people murmured, I moved to the center of the stage and said,

“This is one of the bonus modes used in streets without me being released to Complete Raon. The newly remade 'Street Without Me’ will include voice data in every Hiro's dialogue. ”

“Ugh... You really mean Full Voice? ”

“And once again, for those of you who enjoy 'The Streets Without Me'... we've put in a new mode of conversation with her since the game was completed. And in this mode you can use the cartoon rendering method and the 360 degree camera angle, showing the fusion of the first 2D and 3D developed by our Pentagon. ”

“Oh… some kind of fan service mode? ”

“One full voice function is enough to make me want to buy... rice.”

Miyuki, represented by a full-screen pool polygon, smiled on the faces of the viewers. I straightened my voice for a moment and followed up.

“As well as the bonus elements, the character illustrations and event scenes in the basic story are also being remade by the original Morita to fit the new platform, so I hope you are looking forward to it. So I'm going to introduce you to the next presentation. ”

Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk! Caaang!!!

A picture of a broken sword falling from the sky sticks out of the ground. The mouths of those who were watching the conference emitted a bewildering cry.

He must have known about the Pentagon Soft game…

I put the microphone close to my mouth while the promotional video was playing.

“You've waited a long time. The second episode of Dragon Emblem 2. ”

“Huh…!? Huh!?"

“Y-you can't be!? ”

“Introducing the Grave of the Valiant. ”

Kiiing!!

Now I have the sound of the screenplay, which has become a trademark of the Dragon Emblem, and I am familiar with the title phrase on the white screen.

“Wow!!!! ”

“Yes!! I knew it!! ”

“What, what!? The real Dragon Emblem!! ”

A sudden follow-up announcement of the Dragon Emblem raised the mood of the chairman who had calmly sunk into the opera event and the streets without me.
