The guide looks great first of all and is huge with helpful information. The thing about this guide is that it is a very useful reference guide and gives some good tips but It won't turn you from a noob to a pro. I would give this middle rating, a good guide with great references and tools but not much else. Nothing in this guide that you couldn't find on the EvE University or official EVE online wiki.

This is similar to isk the guide in that it has a lot of references to eve but nothing drastic. Most of the strategies in it are fairly well known.

Buying EVE Game Guides

There are a lot of EVE game guides on the market that claim to make you great at pvp, a trillionaire in isk and various other things. There are many game guides for eve that are good guides and free but there are also many that cost real world money to buy. I wanted to buy some guides that costed real world money and while I looked for one, I had a hard time finding good honest reviews for the game guides. I've bought and tried a lot of them now and some are great, some aren't great. I wanted to make this for anyone who may be intrested just as a review of the guide and a reccommendation of the guide.

I am not in any way affiliated with any of the guides other than a customer. This is just my personal opinion and I would not go off of any of this as fact but rather just suggestions. I am not attempting to advertise any guide but I will link to the guides in case anyone is intrested in their official website.

In case you want to know if these guides are legit or not without spending your money on it, I can give you my thoughts.

Why would I pay real money for a guide

Again I am not an advertiser but I will give some reasons I had about buying. There are some free guides out there and while they are useful, the top quality guides I have found require you to pay money. It is almost always a one time, relatively quick fee, and if you are the type of person who spends real money on plex to sell on the EVE market, this might be something that is more worth your money. I am not saying to buy or not to buy these guides but it is something to consider.

Without furter ado, here are the guides:

EVE Billionaire

[1]

EVE billionaire was one of the first guides I bought. I was immediatly sucked in to the promises of becoming rich in isk. Everything about the guide seemed great, except it wasn't true. This guide is way outdated, nobody responds to your email, the website barely works. I couldn't even access the guide because of technical problems with the website. Nobody responded to my emails and so I have to figure this is an inactive guide if it was ever active. There was a 60 day moneyback gurantee through clickbank so I did get my money back but I wouldn't recommend this guide at all.

Isk the guide

[2]

This is the official eve online guide. The guide is available online for free but I figured I would give my thoughts for somebody that bought the hard copy version. The guide looks great first of all and is huge with helpful information. The thing about this guide is that it is a very useful reference guide and gives some good tips but It won't turn you from a noob to a pro. I would give this middle rating, a good guide with great references and tools but not much else. Nothing in this guide that you couldn't find on the EvE University or official EVE online wiki.

EVE MMO Game Guide

[3]

This is similar to isk the guide in that it has a lot of references to eve but nothing drastic. Most of the strategies in it are fairly well known. Unfortunately it is also similar to EVE billionaire in that it is inactive. The guide seems abandoned and I couldn't get a response from the creator of the guide. I wouldn't reccommend this guide.
