There was a German PC DVD release of FoV, but digital download only for other PC releases, and no Xbox releases.
For all the pre-release complaining about the DKS Xbox release, it didn't cost much more than just the add-on would have been anyway. If I had the option I would have continued with my existing save, but you can easily re-create your character if you don't want to start over (equipment would have been upgraded anyway, so its lack starting new in FoV isn't a big deal, etc). The only real difference starting a new FoV game in DKS is that the battle tower servants are random, so you don't necessarily get the ones you want (on the other hand, you may rarely need to return to the battle tower).
