~ Collectors Edition ~
Some will now think (and rightly so) "6 more for just 16 pages?"
So I can only say that this is really Geschackssache, all I can say for my part, that it is definitely not worth the 16 pages, however, the book shines with very different characteristics, which make up for the all again.
Positive
+ Hardcover with glossy logo (looks great and is very high quality)
+ Very high quality paper
+ Limited to 25,000 copies -> high collector value
Negative
- 16 extra pages rather puny, considering that these reflect only the story
~ The Strategy Guide ~
The guide is currently used as the publisher "Piggyback", the almost every Final Fantasy fan knows, there Piggyback simply very good work with regard to the strategy guides to "Final Fantasy".
Here, too, shows that again, but it has a few weaknesses.
Positive
+ Detailed texts that bring a good through the game
+ Any extras with solutions
+ Good strategies for boss fights that exhaust the Paradigm system super
+ Spoilerarm, as mentioned on the back cover beiligendem: "No story details will betray too soon"
+ Matching pictures, but ...
Negative
- Matching pictures, but sometimes slightly blurred / inaccurate / pixelated (fortunately not often the case)
- Missing data Boss, an opponent Chapter scroll with the passage description to have to read the exact details you.
- Sometimes incredibly small font, for people with poorer eye or wear glasses that's just an impertinence (comes mainly in the Monster database and the cutting table in front, but otherwise hardly)
- Somewhat imprecise detailed, so we are not told, for example, what the "Subspirit +" ability actually causes this also occurs in other Item descriptions. It Piggyback must really work, because newcomers can therefore even less start.
- Outline of the "Strategy and Analysis" I find sometimes a little "drucheinander". For example, comes the Kristarumstabelle before the character development, I find it asks first for the character development before Browsed in Kristariumstabelle) but does not drop much weight as the only rare in this Abschnit and what ultimately matters is the description, as on rumgeblätter
Conclusion:
As usual has Piggyback done a good job here, but with familiar and sometimes newer small weaknesses (therefore unfortunately "only" 4 stars;)). Ultimately, you can associate each of the game does not get further, this book really only warmly recommend because it really reveals all facets of the game and the ways such. B. weapons development. The CE of the solution book is also great, but you should not buy this really because of the 16 sites, but because of great workmanship, superior quality and great look.
