Cool. And the topic remains :~)
I share frustrations over inaccurate game manuals. I'm one who wants a mini-book to accompany my game. I enjoy well crafted game manuals. Unfortunately, due to production realities... the manuals are commited to print months before the game is complete. And in this current gaming climate, games are significantly updated after release. It is just the way it's done. I personally prefer that a game be rock solid complete right out of the box (though I am also a fan of Stardocks ability to make core changes to Elemental based on user feedback). And I would be glad to wait the extra time so that an accurate and comprehensive manual can be included. I don't know that the majority of gamers are as willing to wait for a proper manual as I am. I don't know either way.
