I did not make this video, I just took it off youtube, and because the one who made this put some effort into it, here's the link to his channel here : 360GameTV. Again, I hope you all will enjoy the guide.

[DamoclesCent]

chronical 30 wont let me pick it up

[CaptainKoLa]

thanks dude I got all the collectibles thanks to your guide. May the God of war bless you with grace.

[xenotomix]

Honestly, I really don't know. It seems the game acts differently for almost everyone and I haven't been able to replicate and identify the problem. Sorry for that, but I hope the guide helped you some

[radonne]

I followed this guide and actually, I found everything. However, when I go into collectibles I'm still missing one Vista. And in chapter 3, the following were found: Chain tower interior, Shipwreck interior and exterior. The Vista that is on the barricade doesn't glow and I can't take it. Is there a solution to this problem.

[vikashmohali]

thank you bro

[lilcasey1]

thanks for this, its crazy that this game looks better than assassins creed rpg game that came out years later.
i know a linear game allows for great graphics but still.

[ElderGod]

This is simply excellent. With this guide, I will become a god of Rome!

[razzazzika]

This Section was really confusing:
Scroll 24
Once you defeat the enemies that ambush you upstairs, force open the locked gate and head down the steps. Search the area behind the pillar at the bottom.

Scroll 25
In the ruined streets, jump over a fallen pillar that blocks your way and search the area for a hidden scroll.

Chronicle 38
After a battle, you will force open a locked door and return to the street. Instead of joining the Roman soldiers right away, break down a barrier to the right of the ramp. A chronicle is hidden on the other side.

Chronicle 38 was immediately after scroll 25, the locked gate and battle it refers to is scroll 24. i wound up missing Chronicle 38, vista 20, and Chronicle 39 because of this misunderstanding. I didn't realize until i found another scroll on my own realizing it was #26

[razzazzika]

Chronicle 28
In the market, climb onto a white crate and make your way onto the platform. Make two left turns to find the chronicle.

This confused me, cause its not a market, its a dye-works, where they dyed clothes. Luckily I was able to backtrack from #29.

[mr3bqtr1]

Why is there no skipping in the cutscenes?
