Book Reviews of Final Fantasy XII Signature Series Guide
Book Review: Not Perfect, but...
Summary: 5 Stars
Final Fantasy XII is my favorite game of all time. For a great game, there must also be a great guide.
This game guide contains pretty much everything you need to complete everything in the game without trying to find it all yourself. The guide does give some hints and such for going through the main storyline, but, frankly, the hardest part of the newer Final Fantasy games (both X and XII) is not the main story; it is the optional bosses you can fight right before the final battle of the game. This guide can help you know what to do in certain boss fights, but the real value of the game is the secrets it reveals. Want to know what and how much of an item you need to sell to get the seller to offer a rare "bazaar good?" Want to know where and how to get a rare game creature to show up? Want to know how to find some of the optional bosses and Espers? Want to know where to find some of the most powerful weapons, armor, and items? Then this is what you need.
The book does have a few problems. First (and most importantly), as other reviewers have stated, the book does have spoilers scattered throughout the guide. So I would strongly recommend playing this game all the way through without using the guide. Then, play through the game again, this time using the guide and taking advantage of all its secrets. I had the benefit of playing through the game all the way before I even saw this guide on sale, so I didn't have to worry about it. By the way, if you are a fan of RPGs, this game is WORTH PLAYING TWICE or more; I have beaten it five times now and I plan on playing through it once a year for many years in the future.
The second problem is nothing major. Although the guide lists how and where the 30 "Trophy" rare game creatures show up, it doesn't for the other 50 non-"Trophy" rare game. It tells where the creature shows up, but not how to get it to show up. However, like I said, this is no big deal (you can go online and find this info in many places; I used the Final Fantasy Wiki). It would have been nice to have it in the book, but oh well.
Overall, if you love Final Fantasy XII, and you are a completist like me, this guide is a must-have.
