In the previous Final Fantasy VI games, the royal artist used was a very unique person.
And when it comes to the seventh part, it’s not that Zhu Youxing deliberately doesn’t want to use other people’s works anymore.
It's just that Final Fantasy 7 itself is a change made to be closer to the market and to satisfy players.
The appearance of Final Fantasy 7 also established the characteristics of killing Matt in the Final Fantasy series.
Later, there were not many characters in Final Fantasy and sometimes I didn’t know what to do.
But I don’t know why, if this matter were put into other regional role-playing games, it would be very inconsistent, and people would not have much desire to play it.
But if this image of killing Matt is made in Japan, then everyone will feel it is very reasonable and can quickly accept this setting.
This time, Takeyusei handed over the character drawing of Final Fantasy 7 to talents who were completely trained by the industrialized system.
They are the group of people who know the industrial production process best, and this is what Zhuyouxing has been doing since early on.
Through powerful industrial processes, unnecessary links in game development are reduced.
The effect is quite good. There are about six royal painters in the three development teams, and there are more than 30 painter assistants who assist.
With the help of so many people, the production of the original painting was not difficult.
After the arrangement of the original painting is completed, it is about the production of sound effects and music.
The first thing that must be there must be the iconic Crystal Overture from Final Fantasy.
Secondly, this time Zhuyouxing also requested that each character with a certain position be equipped with an independent music.
For example, Sephiroth, the villain in his previous life, had his unique winged angel soundtrack.
Whenever he appears in the climax, the soundtrack will immediately change to this music, giving people a very obvious sense of tension.
Sometimes if the music is well matched, it will add a lot of points to the game.
This is the same effect as music in the film and television drama industry.
In addition to Sephiroth, all other characters can compose independently.
The main characters are Alice, Tifa, Cloud, Barrett, Red Thirteen, etc.
Everything from early stage roles to late stage roles must be covered.
In this way, the overall atmosphere of the game will be better, but the tasks placed on the sound effects engineers and musicians will be much heavier.
Fortunately, music production has now also become streamlined. It is led by game music producers who are already very famous, and then their unique music styles are integrated into it to add new charm to the game.
In this way, music problems can be temporarily solved.
Neither of these requires Takeyusei to spend time supervising. As long as he assigns the tasks, the employees will start taking action on their own.
The sound effects engineers, original painters, etc. of the three game development teams started busy as soon as they received the task.
According to Zhuyouxing’s estimated development time, this game will have to wait at least a year for release.
This is based on the premise that the previous large basic framework has been built. If the basic framework of the game had not been built before, the time spent now would have to be increased by another half a year.
The production of original paintings and music takes about two months.
Both of these are not too slow,
What's really slow is the game's full 3D scenes, 3D characters, and the continuous enrichment of gameplay and content.
After all, there were a lot of requirements in Zhuyouxing’s previous project, and the thick stack of paper all contained Zhuyouxing’s requirements for this game development.
Of course, it is impossible to complete so much content in a short time.
Big investment, long time development.
This sounds very risky.
And this time, Zhu Youxing did not avoid anything.
When the announcement of gs1 was on track, he directly announced that he would concentrate on the development of a new game.
This new game is a work that I have put a lot of effort into. It is the first time in the world that the development investment of more than 100 million US dollars is only the development cost of this work, and the subsequent publicity and distribution costs are not included.
As soon as Zhu Youxing finished speaking, many colleagues were shocked.
"What? Youxing Electronic Entertainment is preparing to develop a game with a big investment? More than 100 million US dollars? This is really crazy."
"Isn't he afraid of losing all his money? Didn't some companies try to invest more than 10 million US dollars in development before, but the final profits were dismal?"
“Maybe US$100 million will have the effect of causing quantitative changes and causing qualitative changes?”
"Haha, don't think about good things. If there is such a good thing, will it be your turn? But speaking of it, if other game companies make such wild claims, I think they should be completely ignored, but if you say this
It’s Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, but I think the probability of success is very high.”
"Huh? You have the same idea as me. I also think that Youxing Electronic Entertainment has a higher probability of success."
Some people in the industry are applauding. They feel that they can see with their own eyes the effect of large investments. If they really lose money, they can also be a part of the public and perhaps witness with their own eyes the fall of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
scene.
For players, they have no obvious concept of this so-called large investment.
But they knew that this game development was unprecedented and its scale was extremely grand.
And previously, Takeyusei directly announced that this massive investment game is the seventh installment in the Final Fantasy series.
Those who have been loyal fans of the Final Fantasy series are naturally delighted.
Is there anything happier than being able to see their favorite game being developed on a very large scale?
Players began to spontaneously organize people to take the initiative to take on the responsibility of publicity. They took the initiative to introduce this game to some players who were not particularly familiar with Final Fantasy, and believed that this game was definitely worth playing.
And this is because the developer of the game is Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, and it is personally developed by Zhu Yuxing, the god of games.
However, more people still think this kind of thing is unreliable.
Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is indeed very powerful, but their game development is not really a hit.
Youxing Electronic Entertainment still has works with sales of no more than 100,000. It is a very niche word game. It was the last game released by SFC before it was about to be open source.
This has some historical factors, but it also makes people understand that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has not always been able to produce excellent games.
After all, they are still a company, and they still have to serve profits. At critical moments, they will still make some games of average quality to make money.
