Are there any good video game lore books out there, or are they all key-jingling dopamine rat traps on paper instead of on screen
The Last Guardian.
>>25507344That game had a shit story so I'm doubtful
>>25507339Xenogears Perfect Works
>>25507357hmmmm...
>>25507339Ys 8 cookbook.
>>25507348Zanzibart… forgive me.
>>25507339Why even read video game lore books when ttrpg books exist and will far more adequately fulfill your need for lore slop? Sorry if this answer isn't what you wanted to hear, but I think there are better options. Xenogears Perfect Works is good though, you should totally check that out once you beat the game.
>>25507428Why are you samefagging, go away retard
>>25507435how am I samefagging
>>25507375i mean yeah, that kinda corny shit is even worse
Valkyria Chronicles
>>25507339>schizophrenic reaching by a bunch of pseud youtubersthis is not fucking lore. this is just shit made up by people who see what they wanna see in fromsofts shit.
>>25507357It hurts to see the hints at what would've come. Why was Deus heading for the original Earth?
>>25507339Shadowrun has both ttrpg books and novels.Zelda has manga if that counts.
If you're using video games and secondary lore material to look for good writing or storytelling, you've already given up.
>>25507339It's not a book but I enjoyed The Firelink Conspiracy sloptube channel about Dark Souls. Apparently it triggers people too which is funny.
Videogames are toys. Adult children play with them to pretend they're an elf and can have sex.
how are the deus ex books
>>25507348But the world building was interesting with the half build/abandoned tample with scaffolding etc still onBut the kids turned to blue goop barrels needed more fleshing out, I doubt in a crumbling society like it appeared that it would be sustainableI liked the aesthetic
>>25507339What about a guide book to a game that never existed?
i play a lot of games and have been gifted these huge fancy lorebooks and i doubt any of that shit has merit. it's merchandise, funkos in paper. video game lore sucks ass.
>>25507357Came here to say this.Baldurs gate is based the DnD world of the forgotten realms. You can dive really deep into that.
>>25510211>the world building was interestingwrong>I liked the aestheticit didnt have one
>>25507339board games are the way
