Gaming Bookazine  |  Retro Gamer Presents: The Ultimate RPG Handbook Second Edition
Playing a videogame is like leaping through a portal to another world. Inside these fanciful lands, we become heroes, intrepid plumbers, monster-tamers or perhaps even a simple white rectangle bouncing a square ball. That’s the advantage that videogames have over TV shows, films or books; with games, we get to interact with worlds first-hand, and no genre enables you to do that like the role-playing game.
RPGs showcase videogaming at its most ambitious, placing you in the shoes of a protagonist who must grow, interact with other characters, battle monsters, learn skills and explore the landscape. They offer everything from high-fantasy epics to science-fiction showstoppers and take you on adventures that can move you to your core.
Here, we will celebrate everything the genre has to offer, from its small but ambitious beginnings to the world dominance it holds today. Pack your backpack, grab your sword and pack a few potions of healing – it’s going to be one heck of a journey!
