Fallout 4 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide: Prima Official Game Guide

Not a step by step guide on how to complete every map / mission, but tell's you about everything in detail about the character and weapons

guide is good but open world game is tiresome and monotonous after a while. stopped playing hence stopped reading guide.

Collector Items Surely.

Received it on time. Contains all the collectibles. Purchased for 2800 but now it's priced at 8800 The condition is fine. A little damage at the bottom but I don't mind

This guide has a bit of everything in fairly concise format. The maps and information are good. Comes with extras and a large foldout map. The guide covers pretty much everything from stats, to junk, and quests. The only thing missing is companions. Overall, it's a good, concise guide.

The information in the book is very detailed and shows how much content this game has to offer. Having said that I was found I was missing the seven lithographs. Apart from that, very happy with the purchase

Fully recommended, it contains a plentyful of info about fallout 4 and official DLCs, easy to read and to find anything you want to know.My recommendation is to have it, and read if you are stuck on any part of the game, and, once you have completed the game by yourself, restart it again with this book at hand to find and dig up all and any secret, mission or "hidden" stuff around!

Le contenu est très dense et plutôt lourd à lire.Malgré ça, on n'a pas toujours de vue globale des possibilités, et parfois juste un énorme listing de valeurs.Le vrai problème est que ce produit est déjà obsolète : entre les corrections de bugs (très TRES nombreuses sur ce jeu), les quêtes buggées et les DLCs qui ont rajouté du contenu, il ne peut pas être à jour.

OK - Let me start with the admission that not only am I a Fallout newbie, but this is my first experience with one of these new generation immersion type games. I typically stick to simple quick games where I can blow off twenty to thirty minutes at a time. Fallout 4 requires a time commitment, and as much as I dislike that aspect, this game/world is incredibly deep. Being used to just opening a game and going right at it I popped Fallout 4 into the X-box and started to play. About an hour into the game I realized I had no idea what I was in for and little experience in what I was doing. Thank goodness for You Tube and gaming sites for pointing me in the right direction. However even with all the help available on the web there was still something missing as most of that material seems geared towards those who have experience in the Fallout universe. Realizing how deep this experience can go I wanted to tackle it all and began to search.The game developer provides limited help from within the game and no manual on it's website - at least not yet. That led me to this product (that has the game developers fingerprints all over it) which is, for all intents a, World Book Encyclopedia for Fallout 4. Yes it is a game manual, but the game is so big, deep and involved that an encyclopedia is what's needed. Some seasoned Fallout veterans say this book doesn't capture it all, which is good, because the last thing I wanted was a manual that takes the exploration fun out the experience. After a few quests with the manual by my side I can happily say it doesn't. This manual provides some very useful maps, strategies, and hints without revealing everything. It delves into some key details and explains the concepts of items, their uses, and improvement modifications without giving you all the answers on what to use when - the gamer has to figure that out. This book gives a good overview of the mission objectives, warns of the pitfalls, and provides helpful hints on how to either engage or avoid conflicts. It doesn't give all the answers but it should set thoughts in the right direction. It gives general information on where key items can be found via a chart system, but if that's not enough the detailed information on item locations are on the maps; you can choose how much help you take. The information is broken down into sections and is written in such a way that once you understand the basic concepts of game play you can jump from section to section based on what you need to know when you need to know it. "Vault Boys Helpful Hints" strewn throughout the pages give you very some handy tips as well as a window into the developers thoughts.I purchased the hardcover edition because I wanted the large map of the wasteland so I sprung for the extra $5. One of the reasons I enjoy this game is because I know Boston quite well and seeing these places in a post-apocalyptic scenario gives this game some fun familiarity. The large map is broken down into individual sections included within the manual, so it is more of a convenience than a necessity. Also included with the hardcover edition is a pack of 7 prints of the Vault Boy depicting the Attributes as seen on the attribute chart. They do nothing for me but for a collector they might have value. If the map and mini-posters don't tickle your fancy save a few bucks and go with the softcover edition. Other reviewers have posted very accurate pictures of these contents.Included with both the softcover and hardcover editions is access to an electronic version of the manual that you gain access to through an included redeem code. Note that it is not a downloadable file so access to it requires an internet connection. The electronic version works well on the PC, however navigation on my iPad and iPhone is a bit cumbersome.The style and publication of this manual is right in line with the "Atomic Age" concept of the game so it all ties together very well. I'm guessing Bethesda worked very closely with Prima games to publish this work to get a little extra cash for their game manual. It's fun to read even while not involved in the game. I often find myself stopping life for an hour to play Fallout 4 only to find that I get immersed in it for three or so hours - I figure might as well enjoy it to the fullest and this manual has been a big help in doing that. To think I've only just begun. Enjoy!!
