This really complete the immersive experience, I felt all those years ago. Thanks to the Devs for creating a rich background, expanding on what is known about Kharak's complicated history.. how to enter the guide? double clicked DoK_Manual.exe in TechnicalManual folder and nothing happened. win10 64bit. This guide provides exhaustive backstory for both the setting and the game itself.Valuable for true fans, and collectors, and anyone who likes concept art, which is wonderful.. The first Homeworld manual was like a novel in its own right. I used to love reading it.This is pretty much the same thing but in digital format and for the current generation of gamer who has a 1.2 sec attention span.I read the whole thing, pretty cool. not worth any dollar amount though. I bought the game on sale and it included the DLC packs. otherwise dont buy this on its own.. On the one hand, I have to recommend this, because it's the game's manual. That is literally what the executable calls itself. On the other hand, this shouldn't be DLC at all, let alone paid DLC, because it's the bloody manual. It should be included, at no extra cost, with purchase of the "base game", like manuals used to be.Okay. Rant over. If you have to have the complete set, go ahead and pick this up. If you don't... well, get it anyway, but hold out for at least half off.. I love homeworld and been playing it since I was a wee lad. I've also spent a lot of time reading the backstory and really enjoyed the manuals of the old games. I liked the guide a lot, however I don't think people should pay for it. To hardcore fans this is rivitting but honestly I can't reccomend buying it full price.. The best supplementary material for a game that Ive seen, and worth it for the lore alone. If you are into the Homeworld universe its a must have. If you are just getting into the Homeworld universe its a great place to start, and I highly recommend reading through this material before you play the game. While its not needed to understand the game itself, it will give you a much deeper appreciation for the setting and many events in the game.. I decided to complete my collection of Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak by buying off the musical score as well as this nifty expedition guide. Now, I do know for a fact that other developers would have provided this as part of the whole package, but since we are tapped into the microtransactions system that developers nowadays employ for profit, I do not mind paying for a small sum of money for such novelty items.Some of the players might fret and disagree with me, but at the end of the day, it is all a matter of choice and if you a) like to have a complete package, and 2) can afford the meager amount, I say go and get them both.
