Metaphor: ReFantazio’s extensive 592-page guide is not only a wonderful collectible for Atlus enthusiasts but also a comprehensive compilation of everything you need to understand about the game.
Featuring a complete walkthrough designed for you to see and accomplish everything, the guide offers several catalogs of useful information to delve into:
- Archetype Encyclopedia: A thorough entry that details all skills, Synthesis attacks, and inheritance options.
- Tools catalog: A collection of every item and equipment, presented in a section meant for quick referencing.
- Bestiary: Each adversary in the game is documented with detailed stats, including strengths and weaknesses, item drop rates, and other important information.
- Dialogue trees: All choice-based dialogue and actions made within the game are laid out to assist you in forming connections with characters based on your preferences.
- Appendices: For those aiming for total completion, this section includes a full Memorandum, Recent Game+ information, an achievements and trophies guide, and a tips section to help you prepare for Metaphor’s toughest challenges.
Additionally, it comes with a poster-sized map of Euchronia that accurately reproduces the in-game map.
From System Strategy Guides
Future’s Elden Rings Books of Knowledge series has gained immense popularity, with the initial two volumes currently sold out once again at Amazon and other major retailers. Fans of Elden Ring can purchase Volume 3, focusing on Shadow of the Erdtree, for $36 (down from $45).
Future also re-released its original Bloodborne guides last October as a single 744-page tome covering the base game and its DLC. In April of last year, the Dark Souls Trilogy Compendium was reprinted to commemorate Future’s 25th anniversary. Unfortunately, this one is currently out of stock at key retailers. You can still find Future’s Armored Core 6 Pilot’s Manual–a very beneficial tool for the latest Armored Core game, which is arguably more intricate than any Souls game or Elden Ring.
