Discover all the secrets and mechanics of the famous Japanese video game Dragon Quest ! This book looks back at the entire Dragon Quest saga, tells the story of the series' birth, retraces its history and deciphers its mechanics. In this book, the author shares us all his expertise and his passion in Japanese gaming to decipher the creation and the story of this saga and his creator, Yuji Horii. EXTRAIT Even with only limited knowledge of Japanese and somewhat difficult technical conditions, the story was very well told. This was perhaps what surprised players most. Dragon Quest V is a large family cycle of emotions, as transparent as an epic tale by Alexandre Dumas, the author of famous works such as The Three Musketeers. In the end, I was lucky that my first taste of the series was this excellent episode, since VI was far more extravagant, with its tales of parallel universes and heroes traveling on flying beds. A slightly puzzling game, but not without levity nor offbeat humor. One of the most emotional moments of Dragon Quest V is when we end up going back in time to change the past, thus saving the future. The time travel theme has been so often used in science fiction, particularly during the 1980s, that it should have left me impassive. It was not even the first time I had experienced it in a video game. But this adventure, with its simple graphics and persistent melodies, glanced lightly upon feelings that leave no one unmoved. “What would I have done differently if I could have changed things” is a very common concept used in fiction, from A Distant Neighborhood by Jirô Taniguchi to the Quantum Leap series. Well-told, it is so simple and so effective that it affects each and every one of us. CE QU'EN PENSE LA CRITIQUE Un libre passionnant que j'ai dévoré au point de rogner sur mes heures de sommeil. Ici, l'auteur ne nous bassine pas avec des tartines de textes pour nous conter avec détails l'histoire de chaque épisode, les ventes incommensurables de la série ou encore un almanach des jeux estampillés DraQue. - Kaisermeister, Sens Critique Un livre plein d’anecdotes qui feront vibrer votre corde nostalgique et qui donne envie, une fois terminé, de replonger dans l'aventure. - neotsubasa, Sens Critique C'est une biographie très détaillée, riche en anecdotes et bien romancée, Yuji Horii est un personnage fascinant au CV bien rempli et la genèse de la saga est tout aussi passionnante à tel point que j'ai parfois eu du mal à décrocher. - Nixotane, Sens Critique À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Daniel Andreyev is an author and journalist of Russian origin. His career in video game journalism began twenty years ago, during the golden years of video gaming, with Player One, Consoles + and Animeland, with a particular interest in Japan. Having spent some time on translation, he is now part of the New Games Journalism movement, which places the player at the heart of the video game experience. He produces the After Hate and Super Ciné Battle podcasts. He also trades memories with his friends in Gaijin Dash, the Gamekult show on Japanese video games. He is a fan of far too many things to list them all here. But when he is not writing, not watching a movie, not reading comics and graphic novels, not climbing mountains or exploring ruined buildings, he might be cooking, exercising or dreaming of one day owning a dog.

A cette occasion, Third Editions va publier un ouvrage hommage.

It doesn't take a legendary sword to make a legendary swordsman, but it certainly helps.Keras Selyrian is already well on the way to cutting his name into the annals of legend. He's fought false divinities, thieving sorcerers, and corrupt demigods - and left them defeated in his wake. But he's a long way from home, and Kaldwyn offers a different brand of danger than he's used to.He's already got a sword of unfathomable power, but it's damaged and leaking world-annihilating mana, so he's in the market for a new one.Possibly six. The more the better, really.The Six Sacred Swords are Kaldwyn's most famous artifacts, forged as the only means to defeat the god beasts. Each sword must be earned by a worthy champion, and no single person has ever managed to collect them all.Not yet, at least.Keras is just getting started.Additional Info: Six Sacred Swords is a light-hearted fantasy adventure inspired by Japanese game series like The Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy, and Fire Emblem. It takes place in the same universe as the Arcane Ascension novels, but years earlier and with a different protagonist. While the books are interconnected, they can be read on their own in any order

"An exhilarating tale. . . Readers will be enthralled." --J.C. Cervantes, New York Times bestselling author of The Storm Runner A debut novel inspired by Chinese mythology, this middle-grade fantasy follows an outcast as she embarks on a quest to save the world from demons--perfect for fans of Aru Shah and the End of Time and The Serpent's Secret. As a member of the Jade Society, twelve-year-old Faryn Liu dreams of honoring her family and the gods by becoming a warrior. But the Society has shunned Faryn and her brother Alex ever since their father disappeared years ago, forcing them to train in secret. Then, during an errand into San Francisco, Faryn stumbles into a battle with a demon--and helps defeat it. She just might be the fabled Heaven Breaker, a powerful warrior meant to work for the all-mighty deity, the Jade Emperor, by commanding an army of dragons to defeat the demons. That is, if she can prove her worth and find the island of the immortals before the Lunar New Year. With Alex and other unlikely allies at her side, Faryn sets off on a daring quest across Chinatowns. But becoming the Heaven Breaker will require more sacrifices than she first realized. . . What will Faryn be willing to give up to claim her destiny? This richly woven contemporary middle-grade fantasy debut, full of humor, magic, and heart, will appeal to readers who love Roshani Chokshi and Sayantani DasGupta.

Ce célèbre jeu vidéo n'aura plus de secret pour vous... Dragon Quest est une saga culte de jeu de rôle japonais. Si connue et si respectée qu’un mémorial lui a été consacré dans la ville de Sumoto, qui a vu naître le créateur de la série, Yûji Horii, aujourd’hui une légende tout autant que son œuvre. Journaliste depuis plus de vingt ans, Daniel Andreyev vous fera découvrir la saga Dragon Quest sous un angle inédit, en tant que phénomène social majeur ayant influencé plusieurs générations de Japonais. L'auteur nous offre toute son expertise en matière de jeu nippon pour décrypter l'histoire de cette saga. EXTRAIT On reconnaît une star à l’aura qui en émane. C’est ce qu’on ressent en présence de Yûji Horii. « Le boss ». Toutefois, il s’en dégage aussi une sorte de simplicité. Ma première entrevue avec lui s’est faite au Japon dans des conditions vraiment spéciales. Le prétexte était la sortie d’un Dragon Quest Monsters. Personne n’était dupe, on était là pour rencontrer la star, pas discuter d’un énième épisode dérivé, même si, par courtoisie, on est un peu obligé d’en parler. Car « c’est pour cela qu’on est là ». L’aura qu’il dégage, on la sent aussi à la haie d’honneur incarnée par son équipe et les différentes personnes de l’organisation. Horii est arrivé d’un pas pressé, poli juste ce qu’il faut et s’est assis au centre de la table, devant les journalistes, souriant mais pas trop, vêtu d’une veste assez simple et d’une chemise à carreaux. Cette attitude n’est pas de la fausse modestie, Yûji Horii est totalement conscient de sa valeur. Il sait tout ce que lui doit son éditeur. Il veut aussi montrer que c’est « un gars à l’ancienne ». Et il aime parler de son travail. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Daniel Andreyev est auteur et journaliste. Il a fait ses premiers pas il y a vingt ans dans la presse jeu vidéo durant son âge d’or, pour Player One, Consoles + et également Animeland avec une affinité particulière pour le Japon. Un temps traducteur, il se revendique aujourd’hui du mouvement du New Game Journalism qui met le joueur au cœur de l’expérience du jeu vidéo. Il produit les podcasts After Hate et Super Ciné Battle. Il brasse aussi ses souvenirs avec ses amis dans Gaijin Dash, l’émission de Gamekult consacrée aux jeux vidéo japonais.
