You Died attempts to answer the question of what makes Dark Souls so riveting, enduring and influential.

Keza MacDonald and Jason Killingsworth take readers on a guided tour of the game’s world. They profile notable Dark Souls content creators like lore expert VaatiVidya, Gary & Kole of Bonfireside Chat, challenge-runner Lobos Jr., Illusionary Wall and many more. They talk to psychologists and veteran game developers about why the game leaves such an indelible impression, recount the game’s development process and allow scores of fans (including filmmaker Alex Garland) to offer their own personal accounts of how the game impacted them. You Died is the most all-encompassing examination of Dark Souls that has ever been attempted.

We’re pleased to offer this deluxe softcover edition at a gentler price point for gateway T&F collectors eager to start building up their shelf.
