When Worlds Collide: How Video Games Reinvent Storytelling and Why It Matters
by Colin Harvey
€ 21.25
ISBN: 9781914487347
Imagine joining a team of heroic warriors to defeat a monstrous king in a sword and sorcery-themed fantasy realm. Imagine being a Wild West cowboy and robbing a steam train, or a samurai battling the Mongol hordes in feudal Japan. Imagine becoming a cat and fending for yourself in a sprawling urban environment, or shepherding a group of survivors through a wartime fictional city. Imagine, too, if you could build your own character to explore these new realms, or even create your own world.
From collaborative raids with people you'll never meet in real life to intimate, character-based dramas where you get to inhabit a completely different personality, video games are transforming how we tell stories. It's a medium that's always in flux, exploring the capabilities of ever-changing technology and coming up with new ways to engage, immerse and surprise by putting you in the story.
