This thing feels like an $80 book easily. I was lucky enough to pick this up for $30 and honestly I'm shocked it was that cheap. Also, despite every item being alphabetized together across all three games, every single entry is color-coded, so DS1 is red, DS2 is blue and DS3 is yellow. One of my favorite little details is that the pages dedicated to the enemies and bosses of each game ALSO give you the page number of whatever items have lore for that enemy/boss in their descriptions. Most of the information like map layouts or bosses does overlap, but if you were looking for the location of an item in the original version, this may be important to keep in mind. As far as I can tell, there is no portion that is only for the original version. It should be noted that the version of Dark Souls II that is documented in the book is the Scholar of the First Sin edition, with updated item locations, enemy placements, and the handful of new item descriptions. The earlier portions of the book like overhead maps with item/NPC locations are relatively harmless but it doesn't separate spoiler-y content from normal content when it comes to enemies, bosses, items, etc. Of course despite how great this book is, it's not something I would recommend to someone who hasn't already played through all three games, as it is technically a guide and IMO that sort of defeats the purpose of a first playthrough.
