IN SEARCH OF J-RPG: THE ADVENTURE OF A GENRE

Jordan Mauger



 

Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger...


So many famous and celebrated names that, for many gamers, hold a special resonance. Certain scenes and characters are forever etched in the collective memory and are still, to this day, spoken of with a nostalgia and respect that command admiration. In its forty years of existence, the J-RPG has traversed the history of video games and evolved alongside it, from the NES to current machines, to offer us unforgettable odysseys.


This book dissects the inner workings of the genre in an attempt to understand what characterizes the unique pleasure felt, controller in hand, when engrossed in a J-RPG. From exploring closed worlds to epic stories, and through combat systems laden with statistics, it delves into the constituent elements of a Japanese role-playing game to provide avenues for reflection on the unique adventures that weave something special within us.
