Why strategy guides that expensive?

Download from torrents

i dont have patience to read pages and pages with explication i just press random buttons

The pretty pictures are nice.

they don't make them free because they're made by a 3rd party company usually not the same people who make money from the game, and it takes time and resources to make one. But more importantly they do it because here are people who'll pay.

but yeah, i don't get why people buy them either.(but i certainly get why they sell them) I just go to the internet(not torrents to steal guides, I mean like the game's wiki, forums, or hint sites like gamefaqs) like you suggest if I ever needed one

Because they can only sell it to you once.

why do you need strategy guides? Games these days usually don't have the oldschool obscure mechanics and puzzles with secrets that are too hard to find :).

Gamefaqs FTW

because they are sold to idiots. you can afford to jack up the prices when you sell to idiots because they'll pay anything for them. because theyre idiots.

Because it should hurt if someone can´t handle google =)

I actually don't get the ones sold on Steam. I can see the worth of the physical versions sold at game stores for console games, because for some games it does indeed help to have something to actually look at and most console players don't have a computer near their console to go look something up on Youtube or GameFAQs, if they know they can find game help there.

But having a copy to download, especially for PC games that are often played fullscreen just makes a lot less sense. It just would be a lot harder to flip over to the guide while in the middle of a game. Actually, part of why I like playing games windowed is so I can easily go click over to GameFAQs if I need it.

SO they could make money I guess.

no idea about the guide and something like that. donno why they are so expensive. I always watch youtube walkthrough to know how to get achievements or unlock something but never read any guides....

Digital strategy guides are worthless but the physical ones are nice to look at :)

Because they're greedy fucks.
