The Wor[l]ds of Yoko Taro | Print Edition

The Wor[l]ds of Yoko Taro is a book exploring the writing process in games through 30+ hours of interviews we conducted with Yoko Taro, creator of the NieR and Drakengard series.

What is the writing process behind a game? What are the specificities of games as a medium? How does a universe take form? Through Yoko Taro's lens, we reflect on writing starting from base ideation, analyzing real-life scenarios and deconstructing them into elements for story construction, the thought process in order to convey emotion to the players, all the way to practical aspects for building a narrative.
