Game Narrative: Lost Odyssey

Lost Odyssey is a beautiful example of storytelling in a video game. The breadth of the characters and skillful emphasis of loneliness make it a very enjoyable narrative experience. While the plot appears to be simple and familiar it incorporates the needed smaller details to create a depth rarely seen before in a video game. The inclusion of the "Thousand Years of Dreams" does an incredible job filling in what we don't know about the characters, even through its tell rather than show of exposition. This creates emotion in the players, without which Lost Odyssey would be little more than a mediocre RPG.
