Red Dead Redemption 2: The Complete Official Guide Collector's Edition

Like with most Rockstar Games that come out I always try to find and get the collector's edition strategy guide. This goes back to my days with GTA: Vice City when they were made by BradyGames which got folded into PrimaGames which is now sadly going out of business they stated middle to late 2018. Now this edition doesn't come with posters, art cards or anything like that like others, instead the quality lays in the construction and layout of the guide. With so much content to cover with a game boasting 70 hours of game play alone with single-player story. This guide will cover everything as it is as of writing this that is covered in the game. Collectibles, Story arch, Points of Interest, Random events and challenges to name a few. 350+ pages that cover literally everything in-game (excluding Online) with the last part of the guide serving as a art of Red Dead Redemption 2 with character art at the very end. The quality of the pages alone is worth the money, nice and thick art style pages that don't show prints and will not damage or tear easily like in some paperback versions of the guide. Locating and finding what you need is easy as the layout of the guide is well thought out, the Primer in the beginning of the guide shows you how everything is label and even sub-labeled to make finding and exploring the guide really easy. The book is created and published by Piggyback Interactive who before this guide came out I never heard of previously, but the job they did writing and creating this guide is anything to go by, I will be hoping they make more game guides in the future as this was totally worth the money.

I wasn't sure whether to order this book because part of the fun of playing a game is discovery and figuring out what is what. But this game in particular found me wondering what to do next in so many places. I searched the built-in Help system and got some answers, but they were often incomplete. There is a lot of free info online, but I didn't want to sort through it all and didn't want to week through hours of help videos. This is a HUGE game with a lot to discover and I didn't want to waste any more time being frustrated on how to accomplish a particular thing, or determine the best way of doing something. This book fills that need very well. This book is a reference and consists of 386 full-color illustrated pages. The 7 chapters include: 1)Primer 2)Missions 3)Exploration 4)Atlas 5)Weapons 6)Items 7)Extras. Each chapter has numerous sections or sub-chapters which are too many to list here. This book is LOADED with useful illustrations, charts and tables that visually describe each part of the game. Along the right column of each page is a "locator" which indicates the chapter and section that you are currently on. If you love the RDR franchise but have been frustrated with the game, then this book is for you. You can quickly lookup whatever is required to get you back on track enjoying the game. It's filled with tips, tricks and lots of detailed information that you can lookup quickly so you can focus more on having fun. In some ways it compensates for what the game should never have lacked in the first place. But I have found it a useful reference to get me back on track.

This game is massive. Other than completing story objectives, there is much to in the world of Red Dead Redemption 2 including sidequests, upgrading weapons, finding treasure, and creating custom ammunition. This guide provides detailed descriptions of how to fulfill all of these objectives. It also provides a series of maps which is immensely useful for navigating the world as well as finding treasure. RDR2 has a "Total Completion" feature which is tied to exploring the world to completion. In order to attain "Total Completion" the player must achieve a variety of objectives in the game such as photographing all wildlife and attaining many hard to find collectibles scattered throughout the world. I can't imagine trying to go for "Total Completion" without a supplement such as this and if I ever return to the world of RDR2 I will be glad that I still have my official guide to help me along with the process. I would say that the only minor complaint I have about this guide is that it doesn't have any coverage of Red Dead Online (which is essentially a game in itself). That being said, if the player completes story mode first their should be little problem in picking up on the mechanics of Red Dead Online since the two games play very similarly.

Best game in my opinion, awesome grapics and sound.. side missions and game regular mission are fun. Hours and hours of fun.

So I saw all the negative reviews and decided to order one of these books ( hardcover ). The book was received as Amazon stated. The shipment details matched the date delivered. The book is excellent. There is a ton of information in this guide. I played the game for about a week and then got the book to see where I made my mistakes and to help improve what I wanted to do. The game world is very big and the book is nice to help with a road map of what is going on. It is as well made as books are now days. Pages are nice, print is crisp, and colors are vivid. There is a lot of screenshots in the book. I would buy again if i had to do over. Have fun with the game!

Very useful. Seller also very good.

英語ですが、高校一年生ぐらいの英語力なら問題ないですよ。 ただ字が小さい、いうほど親切なガイドでもない、使いやすくもありません。 いまネットでほとんどの情報が手に入りますし、なくてよかったと思いました。 ただまあ、ないよりはあったほうがいいという程度。武器などの解説や絵が詳しいです。 訂正：当初は星３つでしたが、４にします。特殊なもののロケーションがしっかり載っているので１００％を目指すひとには便利です。もっと字や絵が大きかったら５でしたが。

Compre este articulo hace casi 1 mes y la verdad estoy bastante satisfecho con el contenido que incluye como las imágenes, consejos y descripción de cada detalle del juego. Me ha ayudado mucho para completar cada misión ya sea principal o alguna aventura opcional por el mapa de RDR2 incluso te avisa de las misiones "perdibles" debido a las acciones del jugador o el rumbo que tomamos en la historia, lo recomiendo bastante incluso si esta en ingles ya que es muy clara y pues he aprendido mas vocabulario de este idioma. El único "pero" que le pondría es que me ha sido un poco complicado adaptarme al orden de la guía, pero fuera de eso todo correcto. Una compra bastante sabia si lo que quieres es no perderte de cada detalle de esta historia.

Indispensable pour exploiter toute la profondeur de ce jeu culte ! .. mais achetez le en français, ça sera mieux !

Note that all these bad reviews are for Amazon placing customers on backorder when most of us pre-ordered and expected it to arrive on release day. I just kept going back to this page and when I saw "In Stock" I cancelled my initial pre-order, placed a new order with Next Day Shipping and instantly received it. The guide itself is amazing. I don't usually buy game guides as you can find everything online these days, but I want to support RDR2 and the incredible job Rockstar Games achieved with this game. The price Amazon offers for the Collector's Edition, not to mention fast/free shipping, made this an instant-buy for me. The paper quality is sturdy, production value is top-notch, the writing is straightforward. Piggyback is a reliable publisher of game guides so I knew this would be great as well. If you're deciding between Collector's or Standard, the former is really the best choice in terms of value and quality. Plus, the exclusive character art gallery of the gang found only in the Collector's Edition is absolutely beautiful! The detail that went into these character designs is mind-blowing; if you didn't know any better, you would think these are real people.
