This edition that I bought is great for big fans and collectors of course. The content for the price is fine for me, but personally my Wayfarer’s Edition came with the pop-up book glued improperly to the case of the contents. Some of the glue also came off some dioramas in the pop book as well. Aside from that I didn’t have much issues with the packaging of my game or the special edition itself. Just kind of wish the pop up book was removable and not glued.
The game is amazing! Loving the story so far and the unique style and look to the world. Cannot wait to finish it!

Let's get into the Collector's stuff:
The Package/Case: It looks good and is designed to resemble an archaic tome. It's sturdy and handsome. The interior is a bland, ugly peanut butter brown though.
-----------------
Soundtrack: Cd packaged in a standard, flimsy card case. The artwork on the disc is great, featuring all the characters in a wilderness setting with a castle in the background. The disc contains 14 tracks, a fraction of what is in the game, but a pretty healthy list for a CE sampler. All 8 hero tracks are here, as well as 3 standard battle and 2 boss tracks. The music is damned good.
-----------------
Coin: I was surprised by the quality of this coin. It's thick, metal and heavy with painted gold and on the obverse side is a relief of a lord's head. There are runes circling the edge and a couple of swords on either side of the relief. The reverse side is a maple leaf with a keep's wall above and a pair of swords to either side as well. The coin is 4cm in diameter. Slightly more than an inch and a half.
----------------
The Cloth Map: 28.5cmx19.5cm. I was excited for this as cloth maps from pc RPGs of old were a great delight to me. Unfortunately the map of Osterra is a blurry, muddled image which is a shame as the actual artwork (seen in-game) is a gorgeous piece by Francesca Baerald. The other side of the cloth poster is a tavern scene of all 8 characters by artist, Naoki Iskushima. Good thing is, this side looks excellent.
----------------
Pop-Up book: The Pièce De Résistance of this edition is the pop-up book and is a mixed bag. It is built into the case which makes it annoying to flip through and somewhat awkward to display depending on which page you would like to display. The art is pixel art straight from the game and it shines. However, the paper is quite flimsy and doesn't serve some of the papercraft designs well. Primrose's diorama being the chief offender as the design of the book and cheapness of the card won't allow the walls in the tavern to flatten properly. It's a mess. There are some really good ones here though. Some are simple, some complex. Therion's requires some work by the admirer to work properly. If you are a discerning pop-up book collector you will be fairly disappointed . I imagine everyone will be disappointed to some degree, particularly with Primrose's piece, but will be delighted by some of the other pop-ups. Also, the materials used in this book could cause some of the pop-ups that aren't crafted properly, or that are shipped poorly, to malfunction.
Summary: it's an okay Collector's Edition. great concept, somewhat flawed execution. Here's some stars!:
Case: **** Sturdy, pleasing aesthetic, but bland interior.
Soundtrack: *** Great tunes, albeit limited selection.
Coin:**** High quality and neato, but.. it's a flippin coin.
Cloth Poster/Map:** Poster is great but i wanted a good map. And the map is blurred to the point of being near indiscernible.
Pop-Up book:*** A couple of standout pieces (Haan'it's and Tressa's) some fair(Alfyn,Olbrecht,Cyrus), a couple nice but clunky (Ophelia's, Therion's) and one disaster (Primrose).
The collector's edition is 3 stars in summary. The game is 4 and a half. 9 out of 10. Just a straight-up banger.

All that aside, do yourself a favor and buy this game in one form or another regardless. Whether wayfarer, standard, or digital, the game itself is an absolute modern work of gaming art.

The Wayfarer's Edition includes a small, but tissu map that will last long and sturdy. A music CD, sound selection from the game : Main theme of Octopath plus each of the 8 character's theme plus battle songs (5). for a total of 14 tracks. You also get a "real" metal leaf coin. The same currency used in-game. And the book is your box for all these items. It is split in 2 sides, one for the content and the up side of the box for the pop up artwork, again, one for each character (representing him/her in one of its main story background). Last, but not least, the game itself, full cover (no scan bar) included in the box. Note that each side inside it well separated and magnetic clip prevent them from mixing and moving inside.
The good thing about this is that the Wayfarer's Edition is shipped and sold inside a plastic box that will leave all of your special edition intact. Good thinking!
For detail about the game, best search on the net for more details. Regarding the product's quality, it it a good value.

Es un RPG al más clásico estilo japonés, toman el rol de 1 de 8 personajes para empezar, en el transcurso de la historia podrían ir reclutando al resto de los personajes, digo podrían, porque si se empecinan con algunos cuantos, podrían solo acabar las historias de los personajes que seleccionen y el resto dejarlos para después u otra vuelta.
Es un RPG por turnos, y con distintos trabajos que le dan a los personajes distintas habilidades y usos de armas, la estrategia consiste en qué trabajos y personajes utilizar en las batallas.
