 Great help in battling the dragon of complexity November 19, 2009

Dragon Age Origins is a very complex game and there are a lot of paths you can take through the game world. This guide was an invaluable help to me in figuring out how to get through the game.
The game is very decision oriented. Where should you go next? What quests should you do and in what order? What dialogue choices should you make? What ethical choices will you decide on? All of these things are a factor in the game and this guide helps you make the decisions that will move you forward to conquering it all.
It walks you through the whole game so you can conquer it and it has maps and walk throughs of every area along with locations of secret items, chests, NPC's bosses and more. It also gives you strategies for conquering the bosses and tells you your options for dialogue choices.
This is a good guide that will help you get successfully through a very complex game.

Suffice to say, the book is not only unneccesary, it's flat out incorrect in most spots. Avoid it.
Lazy and Weak November 16, 2009

Absolutely pitiful excuse for a Prima guide. Lazy graphic design - every single page uses the exact same template / layout, often at the expense of the information. In fact, that's my biggest problem with this guide - information is extremely hard to find and parse. The second biggest problem is that the information provided (assuming you can find it) is extremely vague. For example, most of the information provided for side-quests are exactly what's in the quest log's description. No instructions how to complete them, no map locations, and worst of all - no information on the consequences of your actions. There are a lot "moral" choices in Dragon Age, and this guide gives you NO information on how your choices affect the game. You could make the arguement that this leaves the game more "fun", but there's very little point in buying a guide that gives you no information. VERY dissapointed, especially at a [...] price point.
Worst Guide I have seen in a long time. Save your money November 16, 2009

I bought this guide as a fan of the game hoping to get some great info and a complete story for DA.. WOW was I wrong. Let me start off by saving this guide is 95% worthless. Many of the puzzles are wrong to start, and i find myself writing in the book to correct there errors (which are many). Half of the quests are so hard to find in this book or are not listed at all. This guide really doesn't tell you Ok this is where this quest is. I just tells you about the quest like the game does. HELLO I am cheating and want to know where it is and how to do it because I am stuck. You are really better off looking up what you cant find online instead of buying this piece of trash. I really am ashamed of whoever created this guide for Prima as they should be fired!
Ease to use - 2 out of 10
Quality of the paper - 0 out of 10 (many pages are folded or warped, and your toilet paper is thicker)
Being helpful as a guide should - 1 out of 10 (more like unhelpful and more confusing then you already are)
Over all 0 out of 5
Good reference but not much new info November 13, 2009

The character sections and walkthrough are pretty good. But if you are looking for more information about spell damage and duration, combat mechanics, etc, you'll find that a large chunk of the guide is simply ripped straight from the in-game tooltips.
