Translations (JP to English)

[Reinheart]

I'm not sure if I interpreted it the right way, but I was under the impression from how the article translated it that you would have the option of optimizing/ raising the level of detail by "15%" with a higher spec system.

Rein, You're amazing and fantastic, maybe you could help clarify if he meant the finished product will be "15%" better, or if you will have the option to boost it by 15%(Textures/ Draw distances/ whatever graphical effects)

I think it's this part of the interview

――公開された画像はPCのものなのですか？

吉田　そうですね。あと15パーセントくらいはクオリティーが上がります。今回のエンジンのは、キャラクターにカメラが寄るとどのハードで も完璧に美しく見えるという思想が特徴です。つまりキャラクターの画面占有率が高かったり、キャラクターをあえてたくさん表示しないような局面だったり、 自分でスクリーンショットを撮ろうとカメラを寄せたりしたときですね。その場合、プレイステーション3も含め、どんなハードでも遜色のない見えかたをしま す。環境によっては、テクスチャーの解像度が若干落ちたり、LODの適正距離が縮んだりなどあると思いますが、もちろん周囲に馴染ませる処理をしますの で、実際の忙しいプレイ中や、静止画で見たら、ほぼ違いがわからないと思います。

The released images are from PC?

Yoshida: Yes the quality will increase by about 15 percent. With this engine the main feature is with any hardware being used when the camera is on character it looks beautiful. So basically when the character is taking most of the screen or in situation when you don’t want to show much characters or when taking own screen shots and closing in on the camera. For those type of situations including PS3 or any hardware to be equal. With different environment the textures resolution might drop or the LOD’s optimal distance might shorten but will make it blend with surrounding so there shouldn’t be any difference when it’s heavily played or when looking at still image.
