Yeah I can only really justify 2-3 games per year but I'd happily pay a little extra for a physical case if I knew that it came with a booklet. Tunic was one where I definitely wanted the deluxe edition.

Aw the ads must have been part of the deluxe edition, darn!

Yessss same! I still have some extremely well-loved guides for my old Pokemon games.

And page six with that important heads up that one of the starters will evolve into a cool fantasy creature and the other two starters will look like potatoes.

Same! One of the selling points for me was that physical manual.

This oddly specific complaint brought to you by the FF Tactics remake, a game of high adventure and whimsy that looks like this inside.

Exactly!! The guidebook always increased my hype. 💪

I was always so excited to look at the art in the little guidebook before starting the game. Tunic really nailed that magic for me and it's sad to see it gone from modern physical releases of games.

Gather round, younglings, and let me tell you of a time when the game tutorial was part of a printed text that came with the thing you just purchased.
