《生化危機6》製作組訪談：CAPCOM給生6帶來哪些變化

工作是創造一個新的遊戲體驗並賦予玩家一些新鮮和具有挑戰的東西，生化危機係列未來該走向何方，小編帶你去看看製作團隊是怎麼考慮的吧。

Q： 生化6與係列前幾作的根本區別在哪裏？

佐佐木:  我想我們要傳達的是關於主角們的戲劇演出。劇情腳本內容實在太多，想把腳本中所有的東西和遊戲設計結合起來是一個巨大的挑戰。我們試著在撰寫腳本的同時，將關卡設計和遊戲設計無縫地合並起來，這是最困難的部分。

PSB: At the beginning of development, do you start out with a story, or do ideas for gameplay and set pieces come first?

Sasaki: I try and get a bunch of different situations in my mind – things that I want to see happening in the game – and they’re usually not connected at all. It’s independent of any story at that stage. For example, with this game when we started, the image I had in my mind was the one of Chris and Leon pointing their guns at each other. That was a cool thing that I wanted to see, but I hadn’t even thought about where the story would be at that point. I just thought that’s a cool thing I wanted in the game – how do we make that happen? How can we make a really cool story around that, and add horror elements and make it work?

Q： 在開發初期，是從劇情開始下手，還是從關於遊戲的各種點子著手開發的?

佐佐木：我試著去想象一些不同的場景，一些我想在遊戲中看到的東西，起初這些東西是跟劇情毫無關聯的。比如說，在開發初期，Chris和Leon拿槍互相指著對方的畫麵就顯現在了我的小腦袋瓜裏。當時我覺得遊戲中能出現這樣的場景會很酷，但是那時根本沒有任何的劇情背景去支撐這個事件。然後我們就想該怎樣設計一個很棒的故事、添加一些恐怖的細節去實現它？

PSB: Resident Evil 6 is an enormous game – are you worried that some players won’t have the stamina to make it all the way to the end?

Sasaki: Yes, just a little worried about that. But because of that we developed this new service that ties into Resident Evil 6 called REnet. We hope this service will really motivate people to keep playing the game. It’s for you and your friends – it will help keep all of you connected and looking forward to clearing the game.
          There are lots of different aspects that will allow that. One of the basic elements is you’re going to be able to check in on your friends’ progress and see how they’re progressing. Conversely they’ll do the same with you, so it will be a challenge for both of you to see how far you can get, and see who is doing better. There are a lot of ways you can compare your progress with that of your friends. It’s compatible with Twitter and Facebook so you can get push notifications from friends. It should spur people to continue playing and make it to the end.

Q：生化6是一個內容豐富的遊戲，你們不擔心一些玩家會沒有力氣去完成這個遊戲嗎？

佐佐木：是的，有一點點擔心。但是因此我們在遊戲中設計了一個叫做REnet的東西。我們希望REnet能幫助玩家堅持完成這個遊戲(-_-)。對於你和你的朋友們，REnet會幫助你們保持互相的關注度並完成這個遊戲。一個基本的功能是你和你朋友之間能夠互相了解到各自的遊戲進度，對你們來說遊戲完成率能到多高、誰的進度領先將是個挑戰。

PSB: And can you tell us any more about your plans for post-launch support?

Sasaki: We can’t talk about the DLC we are preparing for the game, but in the near future we will be making an announcement about additional content for Resident Evil 6. But the main portion of the game is so loaded with stuff that it should take people a long time to get through this game before they are even ready for DLC.

Q：  你們對未來的DLC是怎麼計劃的？

佐佐木：現在我們無法告訴你我們正在準備DLC，但是在不久的將來會宣布一個附加的遊戲內容（DLC確定？）。就目前的遊戲來說，內容已經相當豐富，在DLC之前玩家們會花一段時間在目前的遊戲上。

PSB: The Resident Evil fanbase is a particular passionate one and isn’t afraid to voice its concerns when it doesn’t approve of the direction you take with a game. Is it frustrating trying to keep them happy?

Kobayashi: The way I always think of it is that if Resident Evil represents a child, then the fans and us as creators are the two parents. The resulting games are like the children that are born between both of us. And just like real parents, you’re not always going to agree on what is best for raising that child.
                Now, we do always have our ear to the ground and listen to what the fans are saying and we try to take that into account when we’re making the game. But it’s our job to create a new gaming experience and to offer them something that’s fresh and challenging. We want to make sure that what we do pleases them but the initial reaction might not always be positive. We do listen to the fans but we can’t be beholden to them at every turn or I don’t think we’ll ever make progress in terms of the series’ development.

Q：生化係列的老玩家們極其熱情，在對遊戲不滿時會說出他們的意見，試著讓係列玩家們得到滿足不容易吧？

小林裕幸：我一直認為如果生化係列是孩子的話，那麼粉絲和我們製作者就是父母（誰是母的你們知道了吧），完成的遊戲就像是兩者所生的孩子，就像現實中的父母一樣，兩者不會總是同意什麼是對孩子最好的。
                我們一直以來都在聽取玩家們的想法，我們也試著在製作遊戲時去考慮這些建議。但是我們的工作是創造一個新的遊戲體驗並賦予玩家一些新鮮和具有挑戰的東西。我們想確保能讓玩家們得到滿足，但是最初的反應並不總是正麵的。我們是會聽取玩家們的建議，但是我們不能被時時刻刻牽製著，這樣我想在遊戲開發上我們不會有什麼進展的。
