Midnight Torch Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 So a month ago, I preordered the special edition at GameStop after missing them with the last two games. It seemed pretty cool at first, but now I’m wondering if 3 CD’s, 25 cards, and a poster is worth the $20 I could put toward the season pass of DLC. I want to get y’all opinions on this.

Captain Karnage Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Do you want the extra goodies if you answered no = no if yes = yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricaofRenais Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I was going to buy the SE but after the PR mess that has happened the last few months I decided against it. If you really like the units on the cards I say go for it, but if like me you don't have any top favorites in the roster I recommend the regular game.

Ronnie Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 No it isn't worth the $20. $20 could get you another video game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faustino Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 It doesn’t look that interesting to me so I’ll just keep my extra $20 for something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xattm47 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I bought it mostly for the chance to get the official soundtrack. The music in this game is fantastic. Really wish it came with the artbook though like the Japanese Special Edition did. If the stuff that comes in the Special Edition is less important to you than what comes in the Season Pass, I would just save up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CO_Fimbulvetr Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 No, but mainly because it pales in comparison to the Japanese treasure box edition. So I bought that instead and just the regular game in English. I pretty obsessively collect FE merch though, so I'm not sure too many people would be up for this fairly expensive option.

Tolvir Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Depends on if you want what it gives. It does have some FE Merchandise that wont be available elsewhere, along with a soundtrack which rarely ever releases in the West. The other merchandise is some character cards, a nice box, and I want to say an art book. If you arent interested in any of that, then its not really worth it. Its better spent on either the season pass if you are interested in the dlc, or just something else entirely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayhaku808 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I really just paid an extra $20 for the 3 cd's... With that extra $20 you could get an amiibo and a half like Chrom or Tiki, or like Tolvir mentioned the season pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaid Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I'd say no. I got it for the soundtrack and I tend to miss out on FE game special editions, so I saw this one available in time and got it. The soundtrack is good, but honestly I could just look it up on youtube to listen to, but it's nice to own it too. The character cards are pretty cheesy in my opinion. I also bought the Senran Kagura PBS "special edition" that was both cheaper in price and came with the soundtrack and an actual art book too. Unless you're really interested in the art cards and soundtrack or a collector, I'd just put the $20 toward the season pass if you want to spend extra money.
