Dear ,
Hello? It's Brayle here, once again with a pen in hand.
How's your day? Is it nice?
For me, I couldn't fully relax.
I met my relatives after a long time, but the conversation didn't flow well...
It seems that when we spend a long time apart from our relatives, unintentional hurtful words can slip into our conversations.
I now wish to have more conversations with my relatives and dedicate time to understanding one another better. π
The weather has turned chilly, and it really feels like autumn has arrived! π
Taking a moment to look back on the path we've walked can provide us with the wisdom to move forward on the right path.
I hope that amidst your busy daily life, , you can find fullness of heart and contentment. π

The early Concept Art of Erik from 'The Phantom of the Opera' |
|
|
Character designs are sometimes drawn in one go, but typically, they are determined through discussions about whether the character aligns with the overall atmosphere of the game, often after looking at many pieces of concept art!
As with the initial background art and Christine's concept art from 'The Phantom of the Opera' that I shared last time, these designs are created through conversations among the team. π€
Every character contains the blood, sweat, and tears of the MazM team. π₯²
In 'The Phantom of the Opera', there are numerous characters! Among them, Erik has a memorable appearance that stands out!
Long hair, a grand hat, a warm-looking coat... and even the face hidden behind the mask!
Are you curious about how MazM's Erik was initially drawn?
Drumroll...

He's wearing a mask that covers his entire face, just like in the original novel 'The Phantom of the Opera', but he looks quite different from the Erik we know today!
This early design is from the very beginning when the artist only had basic information about 'The Phantom of the Opera' and imagined what Erik might look like.
Later, as the art style and character appearance based on the original work were finalized, the Erik we know today was born!
What kind of person do you think the early design Erik was?
Was he significantly different from the current Erik?

Erik
Your hair is short, and your cloak is elegant.
You appear more like a poet than a 'music angel'.
Multiverse Erik
It's nice to meet you like this. Shall we have a duel, even if it's just a friendly one?
Erik
We're both tenors.
Whether our vocal harmony matches our thoughts, well, let's give it a try.

What do you think the personality of Parallel World Erik would be like?
Would he be similar to the Erik we know, or perhaps more daring or timid?
If Parallel World Erik and the current Erik were to meet, what kind of conversation do you think they would have?
What would happen if he met the present Erik? π€

I've been contemplating a lot lately about what content to include in the newsletter and how to present it.
There have been many changes within the MazM team recently, and everyone is actively involved in game development, which sometimes makes it challenging to decide what to write in the letter.
Nevertheless, the MazM team is delighted that the newsletter continues to be published.
Through this letter, we can convey our stories and hear your voices! π
Even as we work hard on game development, we will always remember all of you.
Every reply means a lot to us~!
We will continue to send letters that bring a little more joy, even if it's slow.
Thank you for being with us until the end of the letter today~! π
Warm regards, Brayleπ€π¬π€
