This review is from: Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening: Prima Official Game Guide (Prima Official Game Guides) (Paperback) There is very little substance to this guide. As for the walkthrough itself, it is manageable though not as intuitive as the DA: Origins Prima Game Guide and the side quests seemed dumped at the back of the book. The first 1/3rd of the book is stuff a gamer should know if they played DA: Origins, which is 1/3 fluff for gamers who have played through the first. In that case, and here is a money making opportunity, Prima could have sold the game guide for "newbies" and sold a different book for those who don't need the "How to create character". Of course the second book with a veteran gaming audience in mind would sell for 1/3 less the cost. The Game guide by Prima would be more helpful if it would give the page number for side quests that occur during the main quest. It is frustrating to thumb through the book trying to find the side quest that is character driven. This game guide for DA: Origins Awakening isn't as good as Prima's DA: Origins game guide...Read more 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening: Prima Official Game Guide (Prima Official Game Guides) (Paperback) ok, besides that, it's very handy for gifts, databases, class building guides, etc. nice companion. the original strat guide for "origins" was a little better overall but this is terrific. 3 of 4 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening: Prima Official Game Guide (Prima Official Game Guides) (Paperback) Its from the same author as the Origins guide, mainly same organization of topics.Little diference in the "right to the point" attitude because this is just an expansion game and most of the plot and mayor secrets are revealed as you go. The guide would be mainly, as the one for Origins, for those gamers that would like to achieve everything on a playthough. In overall the guide provides decent coverage of secrets, characters and multiple choises for those decisive momets in the game. |
