LA SAGA RED DEAD - VENGEANCE, HONNEUR ET REDEMPTION

The Red Dead Saga. Vengeance, Honour and Redemption provides a step-by-step overview of the phenomenon generated by this western saga. Today, it even inspires some film and TV directors and scriptwriters, such as Westworld (HBO).

The book takes a behind-the-scenes look at the parallel development of the behemoth GTA, which used innovative techniques to create disturbingly realistic open worlds. This is followed by a deciphering of its script and narrative in relation to its cinematic counterpart, and an analysis of its many themes, from the varying morality of the time of the conquest of the West to the pillars of the Western genre. The chapter on open worlds explains how Red Dead is a saga that stands head and shoulders above the rest, thanks to its grandiose gameplay experience, and the hold it has on players. The final part looks at the relationships between the characters, which form the link between the needs of the gameplay and those of the scenario, and finally explains how the saga is perhaps an evolution of the western that only video games could offer.
