I like 80% of nirvanA Initiative. The art style is great, the soundtrack is (like the first game) fantastic, and I like the concept of the dual protagonists. The Somniums are well-designed and clever, requiring much less trial-and-error than in the first game. Ryuki and Tama in particular are great protagonists that I would love to see again. Unfortunately, the narrative really falls apart towards the end, with the "big twist" being... not so much underwhelming, but rather completely pace-killing. It removes all of the mystery from the game and makes the ending fall completely flat. Also, there is such a thing as too much Mizuki, and her role in this game goes too far beyond that point. More Ryuki and less Mizuki would be appreciated going forward (or more Date is fine too). Its still a worthwhile game, just don't expect to be wowed by the entirety of the story like the first game. As for the collectors edition itself, its good but not great. The figure is nice if a little strange in the face, and the other extras are nice but feel incomplete (the included soundtrack really should have been the full thing and not just part of it; the art book should have been more substantial). I bought this Collector's Edition primarily for the game and the figure. Unless a future game has a Date or Tama figure included, I'd hesitate and just stick to the standard version.
