    The DX edition having every DLC and a handful of unique content, regardless of how lean they are, makes it an absolute steal for newcomers, though. Unfortunately, for those who’ve already played the base game and its expansions, the value proposition drops off rather sharply.

    It keeps all the good elements of the original, a friendly and accessible JRPG that stands out for its relaxed atmosphere and pace, and adds additional content that does not change the experience in a significant way, but it's still welcome nonetheless. Veterans of the Atelier series might not find this DX edition groundbreaking, but newcomers will see it as a great entry door into the series. In any case, it's the best way to enjoy this Atelier chapter.
