Chapter 25 Insights(1/2)

"I can't say it's unbearable, it just depends on your positioning of the script."

"If you just entertain yourself and don't care how much the game sells, this script is completely sufficient."

"But if you want to sell it well at fan comics conventions, this script is impossible."

Higashino Hirosawa thought for a while and said.

"What if there are changes to the script?"

Abegao struggled and said.

He is not stupid, he is even quite smart. He has already completed all the courses at Sakura City High School.

He always knew that the script had some shortcomings, otherwise he would not have revised it.

It's just that he didn't expect Higashino Hirosawa's evaluation of the script to be so low.

But just as Higashino Hirosawa expected, the script was Takashi Abe's hard work. He spent too much time and energy on the script and could not give up so easily.

That is to say, Higashino Hirosawa's painting ability is so amazing. Taka Abe believes that Higashino Hirosawa is also good at scripts.

To put it another way, he wouldn't listen at all.

"Modification? A small amount of modification is meaningless. It may make the script better, but fundamentally there is no difference."

"And if you make a lot of changes to the script from beginning to end, what's the difference between changing the script?"

Higashino Hirosawa shook his head.

This script needs to be overhauled. In addition to the name of the protagonist, the plot basically needs to be completely changed in order to make a qualitative change in the script.

It's just so laborious and thankless, it's better to just write a new script.

The theme of the script is inherently low, and no matter how much it is revised, it will be difficult to make a breakthrough.

"Abe-senpai, there are always things that people are not good at. You can't think of being better than others in everything. Just like me, although I can draw and write scripts, I can't write programs."

Higashino Hirosawa persuaded.

A person needs to be a bit smart. Just like him, he is very smart and will never compete with girls to have children.

"Higashino-kun, make some modifications to the script, and then rely on your illustrations to sell a hundred... no, two hundred copies of the game at the comic exhibition, wouldn't it work?"

Abe Gao still refused to give up.

"Two hundred copies? Of course it's possible."

"But, Abe-senpai, this is my first time participating in the production of a galgame game. I don't want the paintings I drew to appear at the comic exhibition in an imperfect way."

"The script is your hard work, Abe-senpai, but the paintings I drew are also my hard work!"

"Furthermore, Abe-senpai, what is your purpose of making galgame? Is it just to sell more copies of the game with the script you wrote? But have you ever thought about how you can sell more copies of the game if you rely on my illustrations?"

If the sales volume is high, what will the players who bought the game say?"

"The plot is mediocre and the illustrations are wasted? Or is the plot not worthy of the illustrations?"

"Are you happy that the game finally received such a review?"

Abe-senpai, you are dishonest.

There were clearly 500 copies in the wish entrustment, but you only said 200 copies.

If it was only 200 copies, he would just help draw the illustrations and that would be it.

It’s difficult to sell 500 copies, but if the heroine’s picture is a bit more subtle, there’s still a good chance that 200 copies will be sold.

As Higashino Hirosawa spoke, he complained fiercely in his heart.

Higashino Hirosawa's words were so heartbreaking that they made Abe feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

With Higashino Hirosawa's illustrations, game sales will definitely increase, and they will increase a lot.

But what does this have to do with the game script he wrote?

It is very likely that you will be ridiculed for trash scripts and wasted illustrations.

But, but, let him change all the scripts now...

Abe Gao's tangled and struggling mood was clearly visible on his face.

Higashino Hirosawa could see that Taka Abe was holding on to the last straw that broke the camel's back, and that he was only one step away from giving up.

However, Higashino Hirosawa can't say much about this last step, and it won't be very effective.

This requires Abe Taka himself to spend time to figure out why he makes the game.

"Senior Abe, please think about it carefully first. These are the two heroines I plan to draw. You can take a look at them when you have time before making a decision."

Higashino Hirosawa left behind two illustrations of Touma Kazusa and Ogiso Yukina, and turned around to leave.

Walking out of the club room, Higashino Hirosawa was surprised to see Senior Aida standing against the wall outside the door.

Aida-senpai must have heard what he and Abe Takao-senpai said.

Aida-senpai quickly caught up with Higashino Hirosawa.

A faint scent of cosmetics hits your nostrils.

"Hello Higashino-kun, I am Aida Kataha from Class 1, Grade 3, Abe's girlfriend."

After getting a little away from the game club room, Aida Kataha introduced himself to Higashino Hirosawa.

"Hello, Aida-senpai, what's the matter with you?"

Higashino Hiroyawa asked curiously.

"Higashino-kun, Abe is so pitiful. Please don't give up on Abe. Only you can help Abe now!"

Aida-senpai pleaded.

"Why do you say that, Aida-senpai? I just transferred here this semester and I don't know anything about Abe-senpai."

Higashino Hirosawa also wanted to know why Taka Abe insisted on making games.

If we can figure it out, maybe we can have a better understanding of the wishing machine.

"Higashino-kun, like Abe, are both handsome men. I guess you know that while many people think you are handsome, they actually really want to see your jokes."

"Abe is actually very good in both sports and studies. The only bad thing is that he wants to make a galgame."

Tsk, senior sister, what are you talking about?

However, if Taka Abe doesn't want to make a galgame, he is the perfect template for ordinary high school students.

"The game club of Sakura City High School has actually had a bad reputation in the past few years. People who really like playing games will basically not join the game club. Instead, there are those who have nothing to do and want to find an activity club room, but don't want to be supervised by teachers.

Only students will enter the game department."

"Those people don't welcome Abe, because Abe's presence will prevent them from playing in the club as they wish."

"After knowing that Abe wanted to make a galgame game, they all laughed at Abe."

"Abe ignored them and found a few classmates in school who had the same idea of ​​making games as him."

"After more than half a year of hard work, they successfully produced a galgame game and participated in the fan comic exhibition."

"But as a result, the sales of the game were very poor, with less than a hundred copies sold in total."

"A few people were very ambitious before attending the comic show, thinking that even if the game wasn't a big hit, it would still be able to sell a lot of copies. Some of the students who participated in the production confidently said before the show that the game would be a big hit."

"This became the laughing stock of others. After the fan comic exhibition, those in the game department who couldn't stand Abe used it to laugh at Abe. They also publicized the matter in the school and laughed at Abe for not overestimating his abilities."

Aida-senpai recalled.

Go away in great prosperity, or return in disgrace?

The game sold less than a hundred copies, which is so true.

But this doesn’t actually mean that the game must be bad. In fact, if you don’t have a reputation and go to a fan comic convention, most people will end up with this result.

There are also a lot of people who are even worse.

"Abe did not give up. He convinced his disappointed companions. Although some people eventually left, new people joined in, and there were two more people involved in the production than before."

"This time they worked hard again for more than half a year and participated in the fan comic exhibition in June last year."

"As a result, although the game sold more copies than the previous one, it still failed to sell more than 100 copies."

"Those in the game department have been waiting to see Abe's joke for a long time. They also found reviews from game buyers on the Internet. Those game buyers all said that the game is too rubbish. Although the illustrations are okay, the plot is very boring.

Playing this game is a waste of life."

"With the propaganda from those in the game department, the matter spread throughout Sakura City High School."

"As a result, the game production team began to have internal strife, blaming each other for others' faults. Although Abe begged, no one was willing to stay this time. Not only that, when Abe wanted to find someone else, no one was willing to pay attention to Abe.

Even Abe went to find members of the art department to draw some illustrations and even pay them some money, but many people did not agree due to various concerns."

After failing to produce results for two consecutive years, the producer became a joke on campus.

The production team was disbanded due to internal strife, which is completely understandable.

After all, they are just generating electricity for love. The games they make don't even get the most basic praise, and they have to be the object of others' ridicule. This is something that a normal person can't stand.
