程度副詞

Part of the way that we design Horizon games is we look at how players receive previous games, how they talk about them when they release, what it is that resonates, what is it that maybe looks like a really great idea on paper, but

我們設計 Horizon 遊戲的方式之一，就是觀察玩家如何接受之前的遊戲，他們在發售時如何討論，哪些地方引起共鳴，哪些東西在紙面上看起來很棒，

情態副詞

just doesn't get picked up when it's actually playable on the sticks.

但實際玩起來卻沒有受到青睞。

And the thing that we see again and again and again is that feeling of movement between spaces and moving between a desert and a different kind of desert, that's, that's a very ephemeral change.

我們一再看到的是，在空間之間移動，以及在沙漠和另一種沙漠之間移動的感覺，那是一種非常短暫的變化。

But moving from the suburbs into downtown, that is immediate.

但從郊區移動到市中心，那是即時的。

Coming out of an alley which is super narrow onto a four lane major road through the middle of a city, that is immediate.

從一個非常狹窄的小巷出來，進入城市中心的四線道主要道路，那是即時的。

And those super small scale changes create the sense that this map is rich and full of things to do.

而這些超小規模的變化，創造了一種地圖豐富且充滿可玩內容的感覺。

I think that was an objective that we set out at the top of this game.

我認為這就是我們在這款遊戲一開始就設定的目標。

We have known for some time that Forza Horizon 6's Japan is playground Games largest and densest map to date.

我們早就知道 Forza Horizon 6 的日本是 Playground Games 迄今為止最大、最密集的遊戲地圖。

We've known too that Playground Games version of Tokyo City is set to be the biggest urban space the team has ever made, and

我們也知道 Playground Games 所打造的東京市，將是團隊有史以來最大的城市空間，

five times larger than Forza Horizon 5's Guanajuato.

而且是 Forza Horizon 5 的瓜納華託的五倍大。

Seeing it in person, however, is something else and obviously extremely exciting.

不過親眼看到，感覺又完全不一樣了，當然也超級令人興奮。

My own first showcase of the game in action featured a beaming red GRGT, the COVID card for Forza Horizon 6, threading its way from the map's southern end to the north, up through the outskirts of Tokyo City and onwards towards Japan's Alps.

我自己第一次展示遊戲實際遊玩畫面時，看到一輛閃耀著紅光的 GRGT，也就是 Forza Horizon 6 的 COVID card，從地圖南端一路蜿蜒北上，穿過東京市郊，然後朝著日本的阿爾卑斯山前進。

As with all previous Forza Horizon maps, this is not a one to one facsimile of any specific chunk of Japan.

和以往所有 Forza Horizon 的地圖一樣，這並非日本特定區域的一比一複製。

It's a greatest hits tour that captures the look and spirit of areas from all over the country all bundled into a single racing sandbox.

這是一場集結了全國各地風貌與精神的「經典匯演」，全部都整合到一個賽車沙盒裡。

It is without doubt an excellent setting for a Forza Horizon game.

這無疑是 Forza Horizon 遊戲的絕佳設定。

It's one of the first decisions we make and it's historically one of the toughest decisions to make because as you say, it informs everything and there are many components to it that, I mean, Japan has been a location we've wanted to do and it's been on our shortlist for a number of games.

這也是我們做的第一個決定之一，而且歷來是最艱難的決定之一，因為就像你說的，它會影響到所有事情，而且有很多組成部分，我的意思是，日本一直是我們想做的地點，而且已經在我們好幾款遊戲的入圍名單上了。

But I think this was the first time that we felt that we could take a shot at it, that the fear was healthy rather than an actual panic response.

但我想這次是我們第一次覺得可以嘗試看看，那種恐懼是健康的，而不是真正的恐慌反應。

I guess in terms of obviously each location offers kind of like new challenges and obviously new gameplay and new experiences, but

我猜想，從各個地點提供的角度來看，當然會有新的挑戰，當然也會有新的玩法和新的體驗，但

for this one, Japan had a lot of, lot of challenges that we had to kind of figure out and I guess approach and try to solve.

對於這次來說，日本有很多、很多的挑戰是我們必須去摸索、去嘗試解決的。

And that was kind of one of the things that, at least for myself, intrigued me to kind of like tackle Japan as a location.

這也是讓我自己著迷，想來挑戰日本這個地點的原因之一。

One significant rule that the playground team took specific care to abide by was the fact that simply transplanting the Horizon Festival to Japan and dusting their hands couldn't be enough.

Playground Games 團隊特別遵守了一項重要規則，那就是不能只是把 Horizon 節慶搬到日本就沒事了。

As highly desired as the location was, it could never be the only thing Forza Horizon 6 brought to the table.

儘管這個地點非常受歡迎，但這絕對不能是 Forza Horizon 6 唯一能提供的。

Happily, Elliot points out that the location does in fact give the team a lot of scope and to make new features, which is something he cares deeply about.

很高興 Elliot 指出，這個地點確實讓團隊有很大的空間來開發新功能，這也是他非常重視的。

A lot of the discussions that we had all the way back in concept for this project were around, is it just Japan?

我們在這個專案初期，有很多討論都圍繞著，這是不是「只是」日本？

Is it a previous game that is on a new map?

這是不是一個在全新地圖上的舊遊戲？

我們的遊戲從來都不是那樣的。

We always iterate, we always innovate, we always kind of introduce new features and push the game forward.

我們總是會不斷進步、不斷創新，不斷推出新功能，並推動遊戲向前發展。

So certainly from a design point of view, we were very careful and very aware of the fact that we needed to think about this as a game that was set in Japan, rather than that being almost like a core part of what the game would be like.

所以，從設計的角度來看，我們非常謹慎，也很清楚我們需要將其視為一款設定在日本的遊戲，而不是讓日本本身成為遊戲的核心部分。

We wanted this to be, I guess, the most innovative Forza game that we've made, the most exciting game, the game with where we push on a bunch of different axes and generate these new features that players have been really excited about.

我們希望這是我們製作過最富創新性、最令人興奮的 Forza 遊戲，在各個方面不斷進步，並創造出讓玩家非常期待的新功能。

And I guess the key thing for us, because Japan comes with so many expectations and I guess everyone has their idea of what Japan is.

我認為對我們來說，關鍵在於日本有太多期待，而且大家對日本都有自己的想像。

So obviously we had to look at those things like Tokyo City, what they expect, and

所以，我們當然必須看看像東京市這些地方，以及大家對它的期待，

obviously mountainous roads, which both offer huge challenges for our team technically and gameplay wise.

還有多山的道路，這兩者在技術和玩法上都對我們的團隊構成了巨大的挑戰。

And also we have the idea of, I guess, what people expect out of Japan, but

而且我們也有這樣的想法，就是大家對日本的期待，但

it's also trying to find the things that will surprise and delight players and things that people don't, you know, immediately think of Japan when they say it.

同時也要找出能讓玩家驚喜和開心的事物，以及人們聽到日本時，不會立刻想到的事物。

And I think as all Horizons games, we always look for those in every location we look for that we choose.

我認為就像所有的 Horizon 遊戲一樣，我們總是在選擇的每個地點尋找這些。

And yeah, this for Japan, it's no different.

是的，這次對日本來說，也沒什麼不同。

We kind of had those kind of nice surprises and we've seen it with the footage we've shared so far.

我們也確實有一些這樣令人驚喜的點，從我們目前分享的畫面就可以看得出來。

而且你知道，所有的一切都是。

It does exist in Japan, which is really exciting.

這在日本確實存在，這真的很令人興奮。

Entering Tokyo City, I'm taken aback by just how vastly different it is to previous Horizon game Urban Spaces.

進入東京市，我對它與以往 Horizon 遊戲中的城市景觀的巨大差異感到驚訝。

This is spectacularly different from Guanajuato and Edinburgh, but that's not necessarily the pleasantly surprising part.

這與瓜納華託和愛丁堡截然不同，但這並不一定是令人驚喜的部分。

Forza Horizon 3's modern and vertical surface paradise is the closest comparison and.

Forza Horizon 3 現代且垂直的表面天堂是最接近的比較，而且。

But the scale of Tokyo City is immensely more grand.

Even skimming around the fringe of the city's heart and escaping via the raised freeway, it's clear that there is so much more to this take on Tokyo City than has been typical of Horizon Games.

即使只是繞著城市邊緣跑，然後從高架高速公路離開，也很明顯，這次的東京市比以往的 Horizon 遊戲中的城市景觀還要豐富得多。

The diversity of Tokyo City stems from the fact that even the city itself, which is regarded as a biome of its own in terms of the overall map, is further divided into four districts.

東京市的多樣性來自於，即使是城市本身，在整個地圖中被視為一個獨立的生態系統，但又進一步劃分為四個區域。

These are quiet and peaceful areas packed with all the charm of a clean but cluttered, densely populated Japanese urban area.

這些是安靜祥和的區域，充滿了乾淨但雜亂、人口稠密的日本都市景觀的魅力。

The roads, covered in bike lanes and school markings, stretch out beneath a spaghetti of chaotic cabling.

道路上覆蓋著自行車道和學校標記，在雜亂的電纜網下延伸。

Next, there's Tokyo City's dockyard, which promises to be an extremely popular destination for event lab creators.

接著是東京市的碼頭區，這將是活動創作玩家非常喜歡的熱門地點。

This is a large area that appears primarily filled with containers that the team promises they've placed ramps and elevated pathways around to facilitate the typical over the top driving and stunts we associate with the Forza Horizon Games.

這是一個很大的區域，看起來主要堆滿了貨櫃，團隊表示他們在貨櫃周圍設置了坡道和高架通道，以方便我們熟悉的 Forza Horizon 遊戲中誇張的駕駛和特技。

The 3rd district of Tokyo City is the industrial area, which is its own island, reached by crossing the iconic Rainbow Bridge.

東京市的第三個區域是工業區，它是一個獨立的島嶼，需要通過標誌性的彩虹橋才能到達。

The industrial district is also home to Forza Horizon 6's ode to the famous Daikoku parking area, the real life 24 hour highway rest stop that attracts and hosts a regular stream of the coolest cars in Japan and has become regarded as the best car park in the world.

工業區也是 Forza Horizon 6 向著名的首都高速公路大黑停車場致敬的地方，這是現實生活中 24 小時開放的高速公路休息站，吸引並聚集了日本最酷的車輛，並被譽為世界上最好的停車場。

The team confirms this is definitely not the only car park in the game either.

團隊證實，這絕對不是遊戲中唯一的停車場。

There's not always a feature tied to them, but

它們不一定總是與特定功能連結，但

alongside the reappearance of petrol stations on the map for the first time since Forza Horizon 3, they help the world feel more rich and authentically car adjacent.

隨著地圖上的加油站自 Forza Horizon 3 後首次重現，它們讓這個世界感覺更豐富、更貼近真實的汽車文化。

The final district of Forza Horizon 6's Tokyo City is the downtown area, which contains not only the distinct neon elements of Shibuya and Akihabara, but

Forza Horizon 6 東京市的最後一個區域是市中心，這裡不僅有澀谷和秋葉原獨特的霓虹元素，

but also a clean and crisp commercial and banking area.

還有一個乾淨俐落的商業和金融區。

So even within this single district, there will be multiple different aesthetics.

所以即使在這個單一區域內，也會有多種不同的美學風格。

It's in the downtown area that Arseta notes you'll also see more in World Horizon Festival branding presence inspired by the sorts of banners and signage a real world city would hang and display in certain ways if it were hosting an event like say, the Olympic Games.

Arseta 指出，在市中心，你會看到更多世界 Horizon 節慶的品牌標誌，這些標誌靈感來自於真實城市在舉辦奧運會等活動時，會在特定地方懸掛和展示的橫幅和標誌。

This actually goes further than just helping the Horizon Festival feel like a more authentic global event that has in fact descended upon Tokyo City and its surroundings.

這實際上不僅僅是為了讓 Horizon 節慶感覺更像一個真正降臨東京市及其周邊地區的全球性活動。

It also helps the team integrate people into the Scenes while still keeping them safe from cars.

它也有助於團隊將人們融入場景，同時確保他們遠離汽車的危險。

As the team notes, cars and people don't play nice, and Forza Horizon is not gta.

正如團隊所說，汽車和人無法和平共處，而 Forza Horizon 並不是 GTA。

By having Horizon infrastructure within the city, though, playground can keep people in there and safe from cars.

不過，透過在市中心設置 Horizon 的基礎設施，遊戲團隊可以讓玩家待在裡面，遠離汽車的危險。

But players can still see a populated city.

但玩家還是可以看到一個充滿活力的城市。

For the first time in a Forza Horizon game.

在 Forza Horizon 系列遊戲中，這是第一次。

The team building the world itself has been split into two.

負責建構遊戲世界的團隊本身已經抽成兩組。

One for Tokyo City and one for the remainder of the map.

一組負責東京市，另一組負責地圖的其他區域。

Yeah, we have a team making our city specifically, and

是的，我們有一個團隊專門打造我們的城市，而且

a lot of that is it's our biggest city we've ever made.

It is five times larger than the last city we made in Guadalujuato.

它比我們上次在瓜納華託製作的城市大了五倍。

And then Tokyo, just as a city itself, it's so layered and so detailed, much more than anything we've done in the past.

而東京市本身，它如此層次豐富且細節豐富，遠超我們過去的任何作品。

And to make Tokyo City for Forza Horizon, we really need a dedicated team.

為了在 Forza Horizon 中打造東京市，我們真的需要一個專屬團隊。

It covers everything from roads, buildings, foliage, terrain.

它包含了道路、建築、植被、地形等所有元素。

Tokyo has all of it where and almost equal parts in it.

東京市擁有一切，而且這些元素幾乎是均勻分佈的。

It's just, yeah, it's just such a big biome that, yeah, it just kind of warranted its own team driving around in Tokyo City.

這就是，嗯，它是一個如此龐大的區域，所以確實需要一個專屬團隊來負責東京市的製作。

How immersed I feel in a place that, that's true of many of our biomes because of the kind of the way that your lines of sight are constricted, but

我感覺自己身臨其境，這在我們許多區域中都很常見，因為你的視野會受到限制，但是

because it's the city, it feels radically different.

因為這是城市，所以感覺完全不同。

I think one of the things that was really that excited me when we had the first white box versions of the city that we could drive around in, was just how it changed the way I drove around those white box roads.

我認為，當我們第一次拿到可以開車的城市早期測試版本時，最讓我興奮的一件事就是，它改變了我開車經過那些早期測試道路的方式。

You find yourself doing a lot more technical, driving a lot more hard 90 turns.

你會發現自己做了更多技術性的操作，做了更多急轉彎。

You're driving a lot in the kind of B and A class of cars, which is.

你開了很多 B 和 A 等級的車，這。

Is quite a different experience to driving around the rest of the world.

跟在世界其他地方開車的體驗很不一樣。

So when you enter Tokyo City, unless you're just spinning through it on, on, on one of the motorway links, your.

所以當你進入東京市，除非你只是開車經過，經過，經過其中一個高速公路連接道，你的。

Your driving experience gears down and you need to interact with the slightly broader main roads and the quite narrow, because we've got some really narrow alleys through the city.

你的駕駛體驗會降低檔位，你需要與稍微寬一點的主要道路以及相當狹窄的道路互動，因為我們在城市裡有一些非常狹窄的小巷。

It is a completely different riding experience.

For Assetta, it's his favorite place on the map.

對 Assetta 來說，這是他在地圖上最喜歡的地方。

And yeah, this is our first real, I guess, city that we've ever done and it feels like it.

對，這也是我們第一次真正，我想，我們做過的城市，而且感覺就是如此。

And that also, I love architecture, so it's easy to kind of just say, that's my favorite.

而且我也很喜歡建築，所以很容易就能說，這就是我的最愛。
