No mistakes walking through the world of oblivion Very complete and detailed guide to the game (for all platforms), I would find it even more interesting if it came with a full map of the oblivion world. Having to look for parts of the maps, can be a little bit frustrating. Other than that, I really recommend it, as, in the beginning, I tried to walk over the game without the game and I was a disaster.
Good and expected The product was great and was what I expected. There could of been maps for dungons and other helpfull hints that were not included but the book does the job and it does it well.
No Index?! You really need one for a non-linear game like Oblivion Oblivion is a huge video game, with hundreds of characters, multitudes of quests that you can do in any order, and the action takes place in a vast terrain with towns, forts, prisons, caves, etc. As such, this guide covers a lot of material -531 pages worth. I think it does a pretty good job of covering everything - the problem is finding the section that is relevant to whatever point you happen to be in the game. Since the game is completely non-linear it's not like you can just read the guide straight through. Honestly, if this thing had an index, which listed all character names, location names, quest titles, and the like I'd give it 4 to 5 stars. Without the index you want to throw this thing at the wall.
Oh and one other complaint, they printed it on tan patterned paper (no doubt to make it look like old world parchment). The extremely dense text just sort of blends into the patterned parchment and makes it difficult to read.
Quite a disappointment. Hopefully a later edition will add an index and they'll print the damn thing on white paper.
Nice So far it has been helpful and this time its in full color! Very nice.
Oblivion guide This book is very helpful. I was able to learn how to play the game and if I got stuck I could get help to complete various tasks. The only pitfall of the book is no table of contents making it hard to find information quickly.
