Genuinely, this completely rules

－Recently, the game has been going viral on X for its beautiful undressing animations. I’ve even read in one of your previous interviews that the development team practiced stripping themselves as reference for the undressing animations. What was the process behind making the animations actually like?

Matsui:

I’d love to know how far that story has spread. It’s true.

First, we write a plot for each undressing scene, then draw storyboards, exactly as the original team did. Then the real work begins, because the animation is essentially all keyed by hand. A designer moves the clothing’s 3D model, frame by frame, manually. It really is pretty much like the claymation method I mentioned.

We did try automating it with physics simulation first, but it was a total failure. The cloth moved in a physically correct way, but had absolutely no allure. We learned a profound lesson: accuracy and sensuality are two unrelated properties. In the end, we accepted that humans would have to do all of it.

Then VR adds its own weight. In a normal game, if something becomes awkward, you can cut away or swap models between scenes. In VR, the player can look from any angle at any time, so none of those tricks are available. The same model has to undress convincingly no matter where you’re standing. When I described this to a designer at another studio, he said, “I would never do that.” I’ve chosen to take it as a compliment.

And then, yes, the part you’ve read about. The undressing motions themselves use motion capture, but the deeper problem was that nobody actually knew the correct rhythm and order in which a person takes off clothes. So, the directors gathered and undressed themselves as reference. “That zipper is coming down too fast.” “She’d pause once before slipping her shoulder out.” These were serious, sober discussions. For compliance reasons, the Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns team works in a walled-off section of our office – and that was the moment those walls truly earned their keep.

i remember reading someone saying that landstalker feels like a game where its challenges often feel so absurd and romhack-like in the sense that they push the limit to what the engine can even do. and upon replaying this game, especially being into later parts of the game, i can't unsee it now

honestly, as someone who mostly only plays 1-2 entries per franchise bc i need variety too much & almost never feel the need to see more past that. whenever ppl describe a series as “inconsistent” & not reaching a certain threshold of quality... that only gives me more motivation to go back lol

sometimes i think i’m pretty bad at discussing my feelings and thoughts on games but rereading some stuff i wrote about makes me think maybe i’m doing fine afterall. i’m not too ashamed of what i said for hybrid heaven and secret of mana

never forgiving the trials of mana remake for making me find Reisz boring. how does the original snes game give her more of a character and make her emote like At All while the remake doesn’t

landstalker is like. really damn cool. it’s genuinely so admirable how much sauce the climax entertainment lineup on megadrive had. they really evoke the feeling and vibe of “adventure” in a way i see many others only wishing they could achieve. it’s a really rewarding game on replay i feel

i think what really captivates me about secret/trials of mana is their character designs and spritework with execessive animation frames because it really does make up for all the lack of personality the game has through actual story progression and the generic high fantasy plots

mechanics review tip: "the character is too slow and it eats inputs when I try to jump" -> makes it sound like a personal issue "the game respects your limited toolkit too much, restricting the obstacles to ones that are easy to plan around" -> sagely, systematic mind, Real Gamer

The problem with the modern day is that we’re so obsessed with subversive media and complex characterizations that you can’t even call someone a “good girl” anymore, you have to call them a “morally gray girl”
