Maybe I'm biased on this one :P

My signature is on the front and back of the Collector's Edition!

learned some things I didn't know! definitely skimmed most of the combat and wished there was a little more about companions/unique encounters based on origin, but overall a useful guide.

Very useful, especially in terms of your followers.

Unlike Skyrim Prima Official, I hardly use the game guide. The game isn't that hard and its optional to use a game guide. The game isn't as big as Skyrim or WoW but if you're perfectionist and wanted to complete the game perfectly to get those achievements, the official guide is always the right reference. The book is too pretty with colourful pages and all. But if you got stuck, you can always use Google instead. I'm still playing Dragon Age Origins except that I have a lot of DLCs which made this guide somehow outdated and nearly obsolete. If you're wondering why I'm playing this game; Dragon Age Inquisition is incoming, obligatory gaming marathon! Duh..

2.5 Stars. This is a beautiful book for us bibliophiles, but the layout and content are a horrific mess. While one can find, say, the best blade for an Arcane Warrior in the weapons section, the only way to find out where to get that blade is to read through the entire book. The simple addition of an index would've improved this book immensely.

Pretty helpful... You could probably find most of the info online but it helped me get through the fade and it's really useful for figuring out which gifts to give to party members. It's worth having, especially if you plan on doing multiple play-throughs.

Using on character.

Invaluable resource, and nicely laid out. I found out about tons of stuff I'd missed despite multiple playthroughs.
Suffers, however, from fairly frequent typos, as well as a lack of an index.

Fun to read, hard to use. An index is a thing, guide makers.
