Dark Souls: Beyond the Grave - Volume 2

Excelente presentación, la portada y materiales del libro son impecables. Tiene separador de listón, lo cual lo hace verse aún más elegante. Gran edición, especialmente para fanáticos del mundo Souls y BLOODBORNE. Ya que en general, es complicado tener material de esta saga.

Teniendo ya el primer tomo en mi posesión, este segundo volumen termina de examinar todo lo que se refiere a la "Saga Soulsborne", analizando esta vez Bloodborne y Dark Souls 3 (y si queréis ver el análisis de Demon's Souls, Dark Souls y Dark Souls 2, podéis comprar el primer tomo, llamado "Dark Souls: Beyond the grave"). En mi opinión es un libro muy completo que analiza ordenadamente el universo de cada juego, inspiraciones, referencias, personajes, la música, teorías y demás. Realmente un buen fan aprecia cuando sacan libros así de una saga que realmente apenas hay material de lectura sobre el lore. Aunque esté en inglés, creo que cualquiera que tenga unas nociones decentillas podrá entenderlo a la perfección, pues no usa palabras complicadas. La encuadernación es en tapa dura y viene con un cordel de tela a modo de punto de libro. A mí me llegó en perfectas condiciones.

It's really nice book for people who would dive into the history of Dark souls and Bloodborne.

This book is written with love and appreciation for these games. But it isn't through rose-colored glasses that the authors approach them; they write soberly, with deliberation and respectful analysis. It's an absolute delight to read this book from start to finish, as though you are a tourist in the very worlds the games take place in, and you have a dedicated and passionate guide to inform your observations. Great attention and detail are afforded to several aspects of each game, from things are grandiose as overarching themes to subjects as technical as the musical scoring. For me, the most interesting coverage is the history and the behind-the-scenes information. Little of it was new, but the information had been gleaned over several years from interviews and bits here and there; here, it is all laid out in a neatly organized history for the reader to absorb. But perhaps the most useful and fruitful sections of the book are those dedicated to analyzing the incredibly complex but insurmountably rich lore the games have to offer. Any SoulsBorne enthusiast is likely to be aware of most if not all the information and analyses conveyed here, but the authors write with such clarity that it almost feels like hearing these stories for the first time. Any SoulsBorne fan who appreciates these games will undoubtedly enjoy reading this book. It's accessible, packed with valuable information, very well paced and organized, and written with captivating fervor. I had read the previous volume centered around Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, and Dark Souls II, and I was heavily anticipating this follow-up. I wasn't disappointed and the wait was worth it to go through these games on a guided tour by authors who appreciate and respect Miyazaki's creations as much I do.

Ich liebe dieses Game einfach und obwohl ich mit dem Englischen Probleme habe, habe ich mich trotzdem für dieses Buch entschieden. Ich will einfach die Geschichte dahinter erfahren. Einfach mega spannend.
