Download or read book Dark Souls Beyond the Grave Volume 2 written by Damien Mecheri and published by Third Editions. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We thought we had gone through the topic in the first volume, those two games opened new pists of reflexions. The in-depth analysis of Hidetaka Miyazaki's Dark Souls saga continues with this volume 2, decoding the Bloodborne and Dark Souls III episodes. An indinspensale ebook for all the fans of the game Dark Souls ! EXTRACT "The project, christened Project Beast, began soon after the Astorias of the Abyss DLC was released in August 2012. At the time, FromSoftware was also beginning to build Dark Souls II, its cash cow. Miyazaki kept his distance from this sequel, which was handed off to Tomohiro Shibuya and Yui Tanimura, with support from the FromSoftware president and creator of King’s Field, Naotoshi Zin, who supervised the game system. On his end, Hidetaka Miyazaki formed a trusted team of regular collaborators, such as lead programmer Jun Itô (who had already filled this role for Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls), composer and lead sound designer Tsukasa Saitô (Armored Core games), and most of his regular artists: Daisuke Satake, Masanori Waragai and Hiroshi Nakamura. The success of Demon’s Souls, and the even greater success of Dark Souls, allowed FromSoftware to grow its ranks significantly. In total, no fewer than fifty programmers participated in the project, along with around twenty game system designers and fifty people working on visual creation (animation, scenery, characters, etc.). Thanks to financial support from Sony, many Japanese, Chinese and Taiwanese studios were sub-contracted during the production to help with graphics and visuals." ABOUT THE AUTHORS Passionate about films and video games, Damien Mecheri joined the writers team of Gameplay RPG in 2004, writing several articles for the second special edition on the Final Fantasy saga. He continued his work with the team in another publication called Background, before continuing the online adventure in 2008 with the site Gameweb.fr. Since 2011, he has come aboard Third Éditions with Mehdi El Kanafi and Nicolas Courcier, the publisher’s two founders. Damien is also the author of the book Video Game Music: a History of Gaming Music. For Third Éditions, he is actively working on the “Level Up” and “Année jeu vidéo” collections. He has also written or co-written several works from the same publisher: The Legend of Final Fantasy X, Welcome to Silent Hill: a journey into Hell, The Works of Fumito Ueda: a Different Perspective on Video Games and, of course, the first volume of Dark Souls: Beyond the Grave. Curious by nature, a dreamer against the grain and a chronic ranter, Sylvain Romieu is also a passionate traveler of the real and the unreal, the world and the virtual universes, always in search of enriching discoveries and varied cultures. A developer by trade, he took up his modest pen several years ago to study the characteristics and richness of the marvelously creative world of video games. He writes for a French video game site called Chroniques-Ludiques, particularly on the topic of RPGs, his preferred genre.

Download or read book JESUS IS THE BEAM Book One written by Gwynevere A Lamb and published by BookLocker.com. This book was released on 2021-06-10 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades ago, Stephen Hawking had predicted that an acceptable equation to a grand unified theory would arrive by the year 2020. He was right! Jesus is the Beam is an autobiography brimming with philosophical ideas from a supernatural journey with God and an unquenchable desire to know the fundamental truth about our origin. The origin of not just our own species, but to know the truth about the spark of life and the energy which sustains it. Gwynevere Lamb challenges all conventional theories of everything as she presents an intuitive pre-numerical formula to the four standard forces of energy and all life as we know it, re-illustrating time and space. She slices in half the nucleus of our reality with a nuclear knife without the need of an atom smasher! Finally a simple, sensible, and satisfactory equation to a grand unified field even a 2nd grader can understand! The author's journey continues in her 2nd installment, God is the Boom, as she dissects truth from fiction (in light of her grand unified equation) in all things (from scientific discoveries to human behaviors), giving new meaning to the theory of everything. The story climbs to an epic ending summing up both books on the summit of Mount Calvary as she explains the purpose of the cross of Jesus Christ in quantum mechanical terms. The author has a knack of explaining continuums of time and space as well as parental discipline. She makes math and science (to include particle physics) understandable to persons without any scientific background by painting pictures with her words as well as thrilling readers with adventurous real-life-stories. Gwynevere Lamb (using the poetry of math and science) stitches the fabric of time and space to earth, air, water, and fire and just about everything else. She explains how the “Fire of God” becomes hellfire in sub-atomic scenarios. On the other end of the spectrum she paints a picture of love flowing like living water. She offers a myriad of continuums not exclusive to particle physics. She seamlessly threads the needle to include human life sciences and social and political ideas commonly taught in todays media-driven pop paradigm set by our modern new age culture. She leaves the reader with an acute awareness of what the singularity is, what unified purification is, and why it is central to our existence. Jesus is the Beam and God is the Boom was originally written as one manuscript. Dividing them into two separate books was initially a concern for the author because she did not want her readers to miss the climax at the end of the story. She came to terms with the “separation” after realizing that Jesus is the Beam rests on God is the Boom (literally), thereby making it a blessing in disguise. She is confident readers will be enamored at the end of the first book and equally eager to pick up the second with anticipation. Gwynevere Lamb believes her readers will be satisfied and “well fed” after consuming both books, however, a third and fourth installment are already in the making... in the writing.

Download or read book The Compact NASA Atlas of the Solar System written by Ronald Greeley and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-11-29 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exploration of our solar system by spacecraft has been one of the greatest scientific achievements of the twentieth century. The mapping of other worlds has resulted from numerous space missions by NASA, extending over many years. The data from these planetary missions have been synthesised by the US Geological Survey to produce detailed maps. Every planet, moon, or small body investigated in NASA missions is discussed and where appropriate mapped. Geological maps, reference maps, shaded relief maps, synthetic aperture radar mosaics and colour photomosaics marvellously present the features of planets and their satellites. This is truly a 'road map' of our solar system. All maps are fully indexed. The gazetteer lists the names of all features officially approved by the International Astronomical Union. The Compact NASA Atlas of the Solar System is the definitive reference atlas for planetary science.

Download or read book Now That We Have Met written by William MacCrea and published by Hillcrest Publishing Group. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 19th century, the highlands of Scotland experienced "The Clearances": the uprooting of families and communities. The majority of those dispossessed folk crossed the sea to North America, while others went on to Australia, New Zealand and even Chile. Some of the exiles carried with them a spiritual sense called the "Old Way" - a wildly beautiful form of early Christianity. Deep, somewhat mystical and even "Druidic," it is spiritual, but not "churchy." It is the faith of a child who dearly loves a parent and knows that he or she is deeply loved in return. "God's Brats"? Perhaps. In any case, the seed which was carried out of Scotland found good soil in new lands. Each of us may be called upon to do the work of an angel, and to accomplish that work with no expectation of reward. Above all, we are meant to celebrate the life which we have been given and to rejoice in each day. May our eyes bless all that they see.

We were just friends with benefits. She didn’t have those feelings for me. To her, beautiful, stunning, sexy Alicia, we were just fooling around. But I told her anyway. I don’t know why I did. I knew I’d get hurt. I knew she couldn’t possibly be in love with me, too. There are two rules: Never fall for a straight girl, and never fall for your friend. I’d broken rule number two. Serves me right. I walked out of her room biting back the tears, thinking how foolish I was. Until I heard her call my name. And then something amazing happened… She told me she loved me, too. * Covet: This Lesbian Love I was sent to spy on her… Hired by her ex-husband to watch her, to build a case against her. My job was to make sure she didn’t see a penny of his money. I’d get dirt on her. Watch her. …Covet her. I never expected that she’d be so gorgeous. I never expected to find myself salivating at the thought of touching her… Caressing her… Tasting her. And I certainly never expected her to catch me. I thought I was done for. Busted, my cover blown. But then she asked me to have a drink with her… …and told me that she had been coveting me. It’s funny how things work out, isn’t it? You just never know where you’re going to fall in love. * Two Days What is there to celebrate when you’re stuck in a rut in both love and life? But as Lindsey contemplates her life, a confused woman who thinks she should desire men, but doesn't, a beautiful beacon lights the way in the night. Her name is Melina, and she’s a gorgeous German model in town for only two days. And, for some reason, Lindsey can't stop staring at her. A chance encounter turns to conversation, and Lindsey is enraptured. Two days is all she has to get to know Melina. Two days is all she has to figure out what this new yearning is she's feeling for Melina. Questions burn in Lindsey's scrambled mind... Why is she turned on by this admittedly sexy-as-sin woman? Why does her stomach tighten at the sight of her? And is it possible to find out you’re actually a lesbian, *and* fall in love with a woman... ...in just Two Days?

Download or read book The Unravelling of Michael Gilchris written by S C Ashton and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novel which takes you on a roller-coaster ride inside the mind of its eponymous hero. A story both contemporary (set in the 2010’s) and nostalgic, funny, quirky and sometimes tragic. A sensitive hero, beneath his ‘blokey’ exterior, and his attempts to find ‘true’ happiness. With just twelve weeks to go before his wedding to ophthalmic surgeon, Jo, thirty year old drug rep, Michael, is panicking. If only he’d found the courage to tell Jo he hadn’t proposed when she believed he had, but Jo’s a determined woman, and besides, the truth would have made her unhappy, and making others unhappy is something Michael has tried to avoid for as long as he can remember. Michael is only too aware that this approach to life hasn’t brought him much happiness, earning him to date not only a wedding he’s dreading, but an unwanted career, ghosts that haunt his past and present, and just lately, recurring nightmares featuring characters from Star Wars (the original trilogy of course). Add to this his future mother-in-law’s farcical wedding preparations, an aunt who’s mad as a box of frogs, a wannabe cowboy for a father, a sister who’s slowly reducing the wildlife population of Australia, the realisation that he doesn’t love his fiancée enough to marry her, and the indefinite detention of the woman he really does love (for stabbing her partner before eating microwaved paella), it’s hardly surprising that Michael is teetering on the brink. When his only hope of survival requires making a lot of people (plus one determined ghost) very unhappy, what’s he going to do?
