Useful guide to an extraordinary game
I'm not a hardcore RPG player and I found Oblivion's depth and complexity quite terrifying. I'd played for about five hours on my own and using just the supplied manual, and decided that I needed help.
There are some excellent online resources for the game, but I wanted a printed guide, and found the OSG (usefully labelled in the store as supporting the PS3 edition). This book takes some of the pain out of learning how to play such a sophisticated RPG, without ever becoming patronising or obvious. It also manages, quite unlike other guides I've used in the past, to show you what you might like to do in a given situation without taking the joy out of playing the game.
For those more familiar with the genre I suspect the reference sections alone would justify the purchase. It's nice to have a well-presented list of characters' strengths, as I suspect trial and error would get rather tedious after the fortieth or fiftieth time.
It's added greatly to my enjoyment of am already great game. Recommended.
Excellent guide
I bought this guide after many hours of gameplay,mainly because i knew that the game was huge and i hadn't discovered everything.Having got near the end of the game i thought that i'd look for a guide and discovered this and it was fantastic.The guide really helps you out whenever you need it too,any mission and any quest at any time you can just pick up the guide and look for the best way to get what you want.I can not recommend this guide highly enough.A must for any fan of the game.
