Worth its own thread, imo. Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: Hindenburg on December 26, 2008, 10:00:44 PM Give me Lucca Blight or give me death, imo.
A Suiko V is fine too. Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: Jain Zar on December 27, 2008, 02:27:34 AM I played it back in the day and still own it.
I... never saw why anyone liked the thing. Communist choice questions are worse than no questions whatsoever. Don't ask me yes or no questions if only one answer will let me move on.

Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: Fabricated on December 27, 2008, 09:48:53 AM I think I got halfway into the first Suikoden and got bored. I never got to play #2.
Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: JWIV on December 27, 2008, 10:54:01 AM I really liked the first and loved the second. The rest of the series has left me cold.
Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: Jain Zar on December 27, 2008, 12:13:27 PM You must be new to jrpgs... Nope. I'd rather have no choices in a game than the easily broken illusion of one. Suikoden's non choices were insulting. Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: Signe on December 27, 2008, 03:25:23 PM I loved the first and second, too. I still have the second because it's PAL and useless to everyone. The rest, including the NTSC second one, I gave to my nephew who also loved them - well, mostly the first and second.
Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: ahoythematey on December 27, 2008, 04:45:35 PM You must be new to jrpgs... Nope. I'd rather have no choices in a game than the easily broken illusion of one. Suikoden's non choices were insulting. Suikoden had plenty of choices in party build and your castle and all that crap, and my point was that non-choices in conversations have been entrenched within JRPG's since time began. Do you agree? Yes > No But you must understand! JRPG's are always trying to lead you down a directed path, with the matter of choice left on whether or not you do the sidequests and get the uber weapons or build that full town with casino. Non-choices in conversations are not unique to Suikoden, not by a long shot. Do you agree? > Yes No Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: Hindenburg on December 27, 2008, 05:34:07 PM To be fair, that problem was largely fixed in Suiko 2, where they also added a completely awesome cooking event. :awesome_for_real:
Also: Lucca Blight :drillf:. Then they fucked it with suiko 3, and fucked it even worse with 4. Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: Nonentity on December 29, 2008, 02:35:16 PM Suikoden had a character named Blackman
who was a black man who was a farmer and attacked people with a hoe. That is worth $5.99. Title: Re: Suikoden on the PSN today. Post by: FatuousTwat on December 29, 2008, 11:53:27 PM I own 1 and 3. Played and beat 4 and 5 (a friend let me borrow them) but I didn't like them enough to buy. 2 is really rare I guess.
