Reviews
I have the other two Ultimania books, and this is very similar in terms of content and quality. What I found kind of depressing, however, were the sections covering the online games, XI and XIV.It feels like a lot of stuff got left out of the XI section, and XIV is laughably bad. Like, ten pages in a 334 page book. That's not an exaggeration.If you're a fan of X, XII, and XIII, you won't be disappointed, but if you are a fan of XIV you might be better served by buying the Japanese art books for that specific game.
