How to raise a passer-by wife

Last night, Megumi Kato was playing with Kobayashi Kongqing's hands.

Had a great time.

"Hui, it's like this..." Ying Lili bit her lower lip lightly, realizing Kasumigaoka Shiwa's thoughts, she knew that if she didn't say it now, she might not have a chance in the future.

Xiao Lin Kongqing's attitude last night was obviously to deal with it, and he was going to give up after they woke up.

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu wanted to do it, but like Xiazhiqiu Shiyu said, he couldn't do it.

Unless... Kobayashi Kongqing agrees.

Regarding the matter of persuading Kobayashi Kongqing... Ying Lili has ample experience of failure.

So the only possibility at present is Kato Megumi.

"In short...I want to make the two editions together." Ying Lili concluded.

"The styles of the two versions are too different, and the direction and focus of the story are completely different." Kasumigaoka Shiyu said calmly, "Forcibly combined, it is the kind of stitching monster you often say."

"You can adjust it! It's good to be closer to neutral!" Ying Lili is unwilling to give up, "In this way, those who like cuteness and those who like heavy plots will like it."

"You're not the only one who thinks this way." Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu looked indifferent, as if it wasn't her effort to be abandoned, "But the final result is basically not pleasing to both sides."

Ying Lili bit her lower lip, she knew that Kasumigaoka Shiyu was telling the truth, "..."

"This topic ends here." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu announced, "It's over."

"That..." Kato Megumi said weakly, "I seem to have a way."

Kasumigaoka Shiwa and Eiriri focused their eyes on Kato Megumi at the same time, and they said in unison, "Really?"

"I don't know if it's possible, because I don't understand these things very well." Megumi Kato was also a little uncertain, "But I want to talk to Sorao."

Chapter 255 Serious Problems

"Take a day off today, and continue making games tomorrow." Kobayashi Sorao was about to send Megumi Kato home after the trip to the hot springs.

"That..." Ying Lili hesitated to speak.

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu stopped talking and wanted.

Kobayashi Kongqing frowned slightly, "Don't you guys..."

"Korao," Kato Megumi shook his hand, "I have an idea, do you want to hear it?"

"it is good."

Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu: "..."

Yingli Li: "..."

"Senior sister is right," Kobayashi Kongqing at home, after listening to Kasumigaoka Shiwa and Eiriri's narration, simply concluded, "It is difficult to reconcile the styles of the two versions. Get the love of another part of the players."

"Yeah, that's what I thought before." Kato Megumi nodded, "However, a game reminded me."

Kobayashi Kongqing was curious, "Which one?"

"Mario Kart," Megumi Kato replied, "You told me, it's a good game for both casual and hardcore gamers."

Ying Lili quite agrees, "Nintendo is the master of the world!"

Kobayashi Kongqing showed a thoughtful look, "You mean..."

"That's it." Kato Megumi nodded.

"What kind?" Xiazhiqiu Shiyu asked.

"Actually, we were thinking in light novels before." Kobayashi Kongqing explained, "What about games?"

Ying Lili was puzzled, "The idea of ​​the game?"

"It's the player who makes the choice, so according to different choices, the plot will develop differently." Kobayashi Kongqing pointed his fingers to both sides, "What if we go further? According to different choices, the tone of the story will also change accordingly."

Just like "Mario Kart", you can simply enjoy happiness, or you can pursue the ultimate honing technique.

Let players play their subjective initiative and choose what they want.

"In this case..." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's eyes lit up, "Through the guidance and hints of options, let players freely choose their favorite story theme?"

Ying Lili's eyes brightened, "It seems to be possible!"

"It does work." Xiao Lin Kongqing knocked on the table, "But it doesn't work either."

Megumi Kato thought for a while, "The amount of work?"

"That's right." Kobayashi Kongqing nodded, "If you make it according to this idea, you need to add corresponding text and CG. Although the main body of the story is roughly the same, if you want to perfectly integrate the two, you need corresponding transitions and branches. , double the amount of work—and now we have less than two months.”

"Twice." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu sighed faintly, "Forget it..."

Such a project volume, the text is okay, but the CG...

"I can..." Ying Lili clenched her fists.

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu turned her head, "Engiri?"

"I can finish it!" Ying Lili raised her head, staring at Kasumigaoka Shiyu with red eyes, "As long as you can write it, I can definitely finish it!"

"You do not need......"

"Xiazhiqiu Shiyu!" Ying Lili stared at Xiazhiqiu Shiyu stubbornly, "I don't want another "Love Metronome"."

"..." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu pursed her lips tightly.

She doesn't want to either.

But......

"What does a perfect ending look like, and how far Xia Shizi can do it... Let me see." Ying Lili paused every word, "I will accompany you to the end!"

"That's what you said..." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu looked at Kobayashi Kongqing, "I need your help."

"Don't accept other people's challenges and come to me instead..." Kobayashi Kongqing raised his forehead, he really wanted to finish the first version cleanly, before Kato Megumi came up with her own ideas , "What's busy?"

"The plot styles of the two versions are too different. If you want to put the two versions in one game, you need a buffer." Kasumigaoka Shiyu explained the situation, "I have read your "Takagi-san who is good at playing tricks"."

The kind of styleless writing that is almost like a line drawing is suitable for this time.

I'm a copywriter, so I'm pinning my hopes on me, so I'm under a lot of pressure.

but......

Kobayashi Kongqing closed his eyes.

The words in the two versions of the script flew out one after another, turning into two distinct rivers rushing.

The dancing words splashed into water, touching and blending with each other.

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu contains too many delicate emotions in both versions of the script.

It was so delicate that she didn't realize it herself.

These emotions were cut coldly by him, a bystander, in an extremely cruel way, and spliced ​​together with clumsy methods, gradually presenting an indifferent main line with only the plot.

That does not work.

That would make for a boring story.

But as a bystander, under the limitation of his own writing, Kobayashi Kongqing did not have the ability to perfectly blend those emotions together.

There is a warm touch on the hand.

Kobayashi Kongqing didn't speak for a while, and Kato Megumi held his hand worriedly.

Soft and warm.

As a result, the icy river water turned into a hot spring with rising mist.

Smells like cherry blossoms.

"I take back my words." Xiao Lin Kongqing opened his eyes, "From today onwards, we don't have much time to rest."

Kasumigaoka Shiwa smiled, and turned to look at Eiriri.

Ying Lili had a similar smile on her face. Noticing Kasumigaoka Shiyu's gaze, she dodged subconsciously, then snorted softly, and stared back.

After making a decision, everyone started working immediately.

The two versions of the script tell the same story, but with different emphasis.

What Kobayashi Kongqing has to do is to write a common plot, and then use options one by one to connect this plot with the other two plots.

With the choice again and again, players who are more interested in sadistic aspects will gradually fall into the abyss of Kasumigaoka Shiwa, while players who prefer lighter stories can easily enjoy a lovely story.

When there are fewer divergence points in the early stage, it is relatively easy.

After Chapter 2, more and more choice-oriented different outcomes increase exponentially, and the difficulty of modification increases accordingly.

Xiao Lin Kongqing's hands moved rapidly on the keyboard, and his brows became more and more wrinkled.

So...is that what HASHIMA Iori said?

"Ah~" Kobayashi Kongqing heard the voice of Kato Megumi with the cut apple on his lips.

"Ah." Kobayashi Kongqing bit off the apple and looked at Kato Megumi, "Sister's script has a big problem."

Fortunately, with Kato Megumi's suggestion, Kobayashi Sorao decided to combine the two editions.

It was also during this process that Kobayashi Kongqing discovered serious problems that he hadn't noticed before.

Chapter 256 So Obvious

As early as when the first version of the outline was decided, under the reminder of Kato Megumi, Kobayashi Sorao discovered the problem.

Kasumigaoka Shiwa is writing the game script with the idea of ​​light novels, so that the game has only one ending.

After revising the outline, in the follow-up creation, Kasumigaoka Shiwa also avoided this problem, and deliberately added other female characters.

And here is the problem.

"What's the problem?" Xiazhiqiu Shiyu frowned, her legs shaking as if she was stepping on a sewing machine.

Kobayashi Kongqing had also discussed this topic with Kato Megumi before.

"There are a lot of female characters in beautiful girl games, you should know why?"

"Yeah." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu nodded, "Simply put, it's a remedy, right?"

"Yes."

In a game, if the first heroine cannot be liked by the player, as long as other heroines can attract the player, then the player will continue to play.

Everyone has different hobbies. If there are no female characters that match their hobbies, players will not buy the game.

Therefore, on the premise of good character shaping, the more different female characters there are, the safer the sales will be.

In theory, if there are enough female characters in a game, it can attract a considerable number of players by virtue of the number.

But only in theory.

If there are too many characters, the difficulty of production will continue to increase, and the main line will also be blurred.

"The problem with the script lies in the subsidiary female characters." Kobayashi Kongqing brought up the plots of several other female characters. Lack of connection and too short."

Ying Lili glanced at it, "Because the main line is too solid... This is Xia Shizi's work, and the desolation of the cannon fodder heroine is unmatched."

"It seems to be." Kato Megumi looked carefully, "Each of them has a bad ending, a dog with double ponytails, a dog with blonde hair, a dog with double ponytails and blonde hair...Huh?"

"Kasumigaoka Shiwa!" Eriri, the blonde with double ponytails, frowned.

Kobayashi Kongqing tapped his forehead.

Until just now, he had never noticed this problem.

The reason is very simple, this is a problem that only people who have not read the script will discover.

As a best-selling light novel author, Kasumigaoka Shiwa's ability to mobilize emotions is too strong.

Once you watch it, your mood will fluctuate with the development of the plot.

Compared with side details, the development of the plot is more exciting.

So subconsciously ignore those subsidiary female characters.

In contrast, Iori Hashima has never read the script, but he has read many female authors.

He is very clear about the minor problems of light novel authors when they first participated in game production.

Kobayashi Kongqing's various hidden promotions before were based on the main story line, instead of using characters as the selling point like many beautiful girl games.
