À propos de cet audio

Unlock your game's narrative potential!

With increasingly sophisticated video games being consumed by an enthusiastic and expanding audience, the pressure is on game developers like never before to deliver exciting stories and engaging characters. With Video Game Storytelling, game writer and producer Evan Skolnick provides a comprehensive yet easy-to-follow guide to storytelling basics and how they can be applied at every stage of the development process - by all members of the team. This clear, concise reference pairs relevant examples from top games and other media with a breakdown of the key roles in game development, showing how a team’s shared understanding and application of core storytelling principles can deepen the player experience. Understanding story and why it matters is no longer just for writers or narrative designers. From team leadership to game design and beyond, Skolnick reveals how each member of the development team can do his or her part to help produce gripping, truly memorable narratives that will enhance gameplay and bring today’s savvy gamers back time and time again.

"Every once in a while I end up reading a book that should be read by almost everyone that I know - whether they actually need to or not. Video Game Storytelling: What Every Developer Needs to Know About Narrative Techniques (published by Watson-Guptill) is one of those books. [It] is a great resource not only for budding writers, but it should also serve as a very important reference for everyone who holds a position in the ever-expanding videogame industry." (Toronto Thumbs)

"[This] book piqued our interest to an exceptional degree. 'Video Game Storytelling: What Every Developer Needs To Know About Narrative Techniques' is perfect for anyone who is a Developer, wants to get into game development, anyone who is a fiction writer, or anyone who wants to have a greater understanding and appreciation of the fictional game worlds we so much enjoy." (Digital Mayhem Radio)

"I found it to be both interesting and entertaining, using real-life examples taken from very popular movies and games that most people will be readily familiar with. I feel that Evan Skolnick has a lot to share and I really wish I had the opportunity to attend one of his talks. I would recommend Video Game Storytelling to anyone involved in the game development process - or anyone hoping to get into game development." (Game Vortex)

Great book on western video game story telling

Great book for an entire studio to use as reference right down to an indie dev for narrative design in video games. If I had one complaint it's that he uses some of my favorite examples of video game storytelling(MGS2's opening) as an example of bad video game story telling, when it's better that the "good" examples he uses.

Seems a bit too focused on storytelling on western games, when it's more eastern games that have managed to make me feel something in their writing. Like the Zero Escape series.

For western style games, you will find it difficult to find a better text than this.

Interesting but repetitive

The chapter for game production is too big as it could have been summarized in one sentence - let the narrative team dominate it all
Besides that - some useful suggestions- I wish the chapter for engineers and qa was larger
