When I was a kid I used to buy strategy guides a lot. A lot of them seem to be not very helpful, though. I remember in Chrono Cross there was this fight the guide hyped as insanely difficult (F.A.T.E.) that I've never had any trouble with, whereas other fights that I actually could have used some hints for they refused to print anything.

For example, in order to get the good ending in Chrono Cross you have to fight the final boss, and then cast spells in a specific order, and then cast the Chrono Cross spell. The guide absolutely refused to tell you what the specific order was, with the person who wrote the guide instead printing some rambling note about how you would know it if you paid attention. It's not hard to figure out, but it's loving dumb to not print it.

I want to end this person's life, specifically because they called Zelda a role playing game.

*Bursts into thread out of breath* Has anyone said FF9 yet? I heard that guide required you to use the internet. What the fuckballs?

Or ones that say "To beat this boss you must deplete his health. goodluck"

Ferroque posted:my roommate has the WoW strategy guide from when vanilla launched. i'm pretty sure it was out of date when the game launched If it's the same one I'm thinking of one of my friends had it and it contains a bunch of Penny Arcade comics. I made fun of him for owning it.
