    I guess what made this series so niche, is the daunting task of finding all 108 stars to get the best possible ending. I've only watched walkthroughs of this series, but it seems to me getting them all isn't as long and tedious as people think, and in this era it's much easier to see how to find them at your own pace.

    12:00 for the record, we ARE passionate about the Suikoden series. There were plenty of movements over the years to even send stuff to Konami's HQ. If it was another pubblisher by now they would've listened to us. Suikoden fans are the same people that made Kickstarter crash to fund Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, which is Suikoden spiritual successor. We were waiting for this, to have the original creator from Suikoden series from almost 20 years. We always talked to Murayama, the scenario writer about Suikoden, to try and convince him to go back to the Suikoden series but sadly he has always stated that it is out of his will because Konami holds every decision. In a way, Suikoden is back, as a new form: Eiyuden Chronicle. We already made it happen.

I think it has such a strong impact on me not just because of the great art style, music and the way recruiting the characters upgraded your base but plot elements like false flag attacks, massacring civilians, war refugees and seditious traitors in positions of power within governments being a weakness that more diverse open societies have compared to a smaller but highly unified militant society...

    I stumbled upon suikoden 1 when it was first released and loved it although i have never played a JRPG before that point. I just got done with my ~50th play through of suikoden 2 and I'm left wanting more.. Its just a wish but I really hope a mother series revival does happen at some point in the future I can wait how ever long it takes.

They are obviously sworn enemies - How come Jeane appears in all series? - I don't think Suikoden world have been revealed entirely, i heard about Gaien, Kanakan, Nagarea, Northern Outland, etc - Rowd and Leon Silverberg of Suiko II is still at large I really hope Suikoden series is continued, not just remade or remastered

    It's a bug shame because I really like Suikoden, what I've played of it. I found 3 and 4 in a pawn shop, and decided to play 4; it got me hooked. I found the strategy guide for it, and made it through; all 108 stars, but then I couldn't find one for 3, as it was never made in English, so I didn't play that one; strategy guides were sort of a staple for me, at the time, and I didn't want to read across five sites online. 2 was unavailable, so I accepted 3 and 4, but then I found 5 st the same shop, and snatched it up; guide and all. It was great. My only real complaints were you couldn't eventually get elemental cannon for ship battles, and you needed to get back to the field to port around. I later got Tierkries, and liked it, but it was too complicated for me to finish. I love some of the characters, especially some that reappear across games, though maybe not ones everyone else likes. Viki is my favorite; she's cute, adorable, innocent, can fight, and provides a service I value. I was so glad Jeane was playable in 4 and 5, for several of the same reasons. They're just fun games, and I wish they would make another, with the party building, base building, and world building. I almost wish the creator would Kickstarter it, like Mighty No.9, though I might fear the same result. Oh well, if I can't have another, at least I have the memories, and working consoles to play 3, 4, 5, and Tierkries, while I downloaded 2 on PS4, so I really can play whenever I want, I guess.

    I feel the problem with Konami is how Society has been trained to want a quick dopamine hit, whether it be through Snapchatting, Twitter responses, text messaging, Tik-Tok etc etc, people have grown numb and are unable to fully enjoy that dopamine hit that takes time to earn. They just want that quick game of a MOBA, FPS, Battle Royale, Among Us, etc, they don't want to just sit back and enjoy a built up slow pace to earn that dopamine, they want the hit now and sadly Konami is reacting to that market which is why they focus on things that give a quick dopamine hit and can earn them a lot of money over making what one could call a piece of art that can be appreciated for longer.

    I did really like 5. I could understand why people didn't like it though. So much loading, the pace is slow, the interface is not the best looking. But despite so much of these failings, I still consider it one of my top rpgs of the PS2. To me, that means the base recipe of Suikoden is that good. Sure, not all 108 people are gonna be useful - but they fit somewhere in the world, somehow. Its the immersion, the exploration, the little details here and there. Hell, I still play 5. After a while, I just kept a save at a certain point of the game when it gets interesting and use that to "start" a new playthru. Just so I don't have to go through the slow start again and again.

    I think at this point, Suidoken's dead in the water. Don't really see any shot in it coming back, given Konami's recent shift into what they have become right now. At best, we have the spiritual successor in Eiyuden Chronicle, which honestly oozes of so much potential! It to me answers what this series would be now in this current day and age. And should it get fully realised? I really think the fans will have moved on into something that's probably better. After all, the creator of this series is in it after all. Definitely will give this series a shot down the line though! Eiyuden's the reason why my eyes got opened to this. And it really seems to be worth the time investment 100%! Great video mate! You just got a new sub in me!

    The fact that Suikoden 5 went right back to the combat set up of 1 and 2 should tell you all you need to know about the damage that particularly 4 did to the franchise. Allowing only 4 characters in a franchise that focuses on collecting 108 characters is a bit silly. Also, boat rides being automated with no combat involved made me laugh hard because S 4's sailing/high encounter rate made me quit that game real damn fast. 3's whole buddy system setup where you basically just control 3 characters really turned me off too. And that camera... meh. Is anyone else kind of surprised that a Suikoden gacha mobile game doesn't exist?
