Longevity Story

"Kayaba, when you were playing on Renotang's red and white machine when you were a child, did you feel a psychological shadow from the sudden power failure and loss of archives?

What time is it now, the latest generation of underground power grids laid by Shuangma Energy covers every corner of the neon.

As long as there are no major natural disasters such as a nuclear bomb attack, a meteorite fall, or a magnitude [-] tsunami earthquake, there is no possibility of a power outage in all neon...well, unless you don't pay the electricity bill. "

"The stealth in motion..."

"Isn't this even necessary?

After sneaking, the user's body can't move, so if you use this, you must be safe indoors, right?

And such a big helmet, no matter how you look at it, it is not something you can carry with you, right?

Need a battery for this mobile device? "

"..."

Kayaba Akihiko fell silent for a while.

But Xing Ke started chattering as if he had been opened up.

"Without this huge and heavy battery, the size of this helmet should be much smaller, right?"

"..."

"How about we redesign a smaller and more convenient device?"

"..."

"What's this? A face scanner? Does this thing work?"

"..."

"Use facial recognition to confirm identity information? It's not as simple, fast and safe as fingerprint recognition. What if I get fat?"

"..."

"Or is it used to collect facial information so that players can use real faces in the virtual world?"

"..."

"In this case, it doesn't matter to a handsome guy like me, but some players will report our company's [extremely poor game experience]."

"..."

"I think in the early days. Word of mouth is the most important thing. This face scanner is used as a plug-in for external links. How about being independent? Make it a detachable external device and buy it only for some customers who need it..."

"..."

"And there is this internal storage, the capacity is really too small, do you only plan to let players store games and game archives?"

"..."

"As a household appliance, players store some other things, such as game cg, game video, character modeling, skin decoration, etc., of course, the storage space needs to be larger."

"..."

"It's better to make a card-type structure that can expand the storage space by itself..."

Facing Hoshika's suggestion one after another, Kayaba Akihiko sat on the chair and nodded slightly. .Silent, without the slightest meaning of words.

The light shone on his glasses and scattered, so that Xing Ke could not see what his eyes were like.

I don't know if he even listened.

"All in all, this first-generation version of [neRvgear] is used as an internal experimental machine. It can be made on a small machine tool in the laboratory for experiments, or can be kept as a collection?"

"...Understood, Mr. Bowie."

Seeing Kayaba Akihiko's mood was a little down, Xingke couldn't help but realize what he had just done.

As the big boss of Party A, I have just rejected a hard-working design disgust from the designer of Party B!

No wonder Kayaba Akihiko's aura was so heavy.

Xing Ke decided to comfort him.

"Kayaba, you are a scientist after all. A researcher specializing in quantum physics, you may not know what it takes to make a commodity for the public, right?

First of all, how to let everyone accept this new thing is the first step. Practicality and versatility are very important.

User experience is also a very important thing.

In the end, mass production and low cost are an indispensable and important condition for large-scale distribution and popularization..."

Only when it is fully popularized can it pave the way for the character image of [Altaïr], so Xing Ke pays great attention to this aspect, but there is no need to say it here.

"Virtual reality is a new way of life and a new exploration of the unknown world by human beings...

Even, it can be said to be a brand new, infinite world!

As a start, I want to make it as good as possible..."

Speaking of this, Xing Ke noticed that Kayaba Akihiko, who was silent, finally had such a slight reaction.

"All in all, as the first-generation mass-produced product for the market, this [neRvgear] is a bit reluctant.

I want you to cut and remodel on his basis, and then redesign a new product, no problem, right? ".

384. I really only know a thing or two about games...

"I want you to cut and remodel on his basis, and then redesign a new product, no problem?"

"..."

Xing Ke said that it was a little bit inhumane.

After all, he just rejected other people's plan, and now he wants them to come up with a new plan, who would be unwilling in their hearts?

Kayaba Akihiko, a genius quantum physicist, can achieve such an achievement at a young age.Although product design is not someone's specialty, it is still very embarrassing to be denied now.

Don't you look at Rinko Koujiro next to him looking at Xingke with hostility in his eyes?You refuted the husband's face in front of his wife.

Yes, Hoshika thought that Kayaba Akihiko's current silence was because of this.

So Xing Ke decided to be considerate of this guy who had been in the laboratory for several years.A researcher with no social contact.

"Forget it, after all, your major is not in electronic equipment, so it would be overkill to let you do this.

In this way, this equipment product for market use is left to others to do... Doctor?Can you arrange the manpower? "

Xing Ke turned his head and asked Dr. Shigemura.

"Ah? Oh, yes, it doesn't matter..."

Maybe he is not interested in some of the things that Xing Ke mentioned just now?Dr. Shigemura accidentally lost his mind.

"So, Kayaba, let's talk about your main attack direction [how to build a complete world]?"

This time. .Kayaba Akihiko replied as if he wanted to understand something:

"Okay, Mr. Bowser."

…………

Speaking of building a complete world, Xing Ke still has a certain confidence in himself, after all, he has a world of his own... small.

And maybe he himself is a special being similar to [World].

Although the [world] here refers to the virtual world constructed in the ocean of quantum data, Xing Ke still has this inexplicable self-confidence.

"First of all, can you explain in detail this... linking the platform between the two worlds, what kind of existence is it?"

It's like organizing words. .Kayaba Akihiko leaned back in his chair and sighed.

"...I wonder if Mr. Gong Chang understands the production process of current home computer games?"

"Of course I know something..."

In fact, Xing Ke has personally participated in the production of games, such as the school festival works of the Sakurasou production team, and for example, he and Ryunosuke have done outsourcing tasks for the game operating system before.

But Xing Ke is a good boy who is humble and polite, and doesn't want to show off his work experience in front of others...

"That's a lot faster, doesn't it?

If you want to build a [world] in quantum data, not just create a beautiful, but can only see and touch [virtual scene], then you must create a set of physical laws, confirm a set of Similar to the real world, but different laws——

How much force is applied to an object with the palm of the hand, the object will return as much force; if you step on a slate, you will feel solid, if you step on the mud, you will fall down; when the strong wind blows in front of you, you will feel resistance...

These are all things that are taken for granted in the real world. In the virtual world, we have to start from scratch, build and set from scratch.

That's why the virtual world has its own unique charm..."

A slight smile appeared on Kayaba Akihiko's mouth.

"We can set a small amount of force on an object with the palm of the hand, and the object will return twice as much force, creating a kind of bouncing effect;

If you step on the slate, it will collapse, and if you step on the mud, you will be unable to walk.

The strong wind blowing will make people go faster...

etc. settings..."

Star Ke looked at Kayaba Akihiko who was in high spirits, and his eyes were full of strange expressions.

Xing Ke suspects that this Kayaba Akihiko is not yearning for another world, yearning for the existence of magic, right?

Because the things he said were real things in Xing Ke's eyes——

Magical materials with special properties will indeed rebound twice as much force to a certain extent; the fallen slate and the mud that makes it difficult to walk are actually two branches of [magictrap]; strong wind blows head on.But the speed of people has become faster... Ghosts know how the wind magic [walking against the wind {wagainst}] does it.

"But if you want to build two completely different worlds, because their laws will be very different, it will make the player do a lot of redundant work.

Just like the game console war between Ren Tang and Sonn in the last century.

In order to prevent this from happening, I standardized the construction of the virtual world in the early days of the emergence of full-dive equipment, and I named it as——

【the seeds】

This is a software that can create and manage a virtual world. It can make the construction of the virtual world as simple as an ordinary computer game, as long as you fill in the material data you draw.The rule setting can also be determined according to the designer's intention.

That is to say. .On the basis of [theseed], almost any kind of world can be constructed.

However, the existence of [theseed] will also link these virtual worlds like a supreme law, so that the inhabitants of the virtual world can walk in all the worlds constructed by [theseed] without any barriers! "

After listening to Kayaba Akihiko's narration, Hoshika... always feels very familiar.
