Special announcement

As one might expect, I thought a long time about what to do on this blog and how to make it special, especially in the story-writing departement. Now I finally had an idea: I will look into the stories and at the characters of different games, analyse their structure and what makes them special. Since I play a lot of JRPGs, you will mainly see analyses about them, but I will try to keep it exciting. So look forward to it, because I sure do!



PS: None of those pictures above are made by me and even though I wish it were different, the games sadly aren't by me either.

Stocke is somewhat inbetween. While he is calm, he definitly has his own character. Every choice the player makes for him are choices that fit the picture the player constructed when seeing him.

Oh Radiant Historia , what beautiful memories I have of you.You hooked my right from the beginning, never letting me down for a second. But why were you so mesmerizing? That's want I want to research, hoping to learn some tricks of you, the magician. Now don't worry dear readers, I haven't forgotten you and I don't expect you to know the story of this fantastic, wonderful game that you probably should play as soon as possible.

Good, then let's begin. Summary Lippti and Teo Off to a great start: Other games give you some time and are very gentle in the beginning, Radiant Historia  (developed by Atlus and Headlock  )shows you the worst case scenario a soon as you start the game: The end of the world through desertification and the most depressing music I have ever heard.
