Brobecause the third one wasn't Suikoden really
If a ‘den lets me populate a cool castle with a hundred and so weirdos, dogs, and weirdo dogs then it’s alright in my book. I hope they all see remasters.
Still, I’m ecstatic 1 and 2 will be at hand, and in such a nice looking package too. It’s a cliche to say so, but 2 is an exemplary game. A real pinnacle of the form, up there with other “Best Evers” like Chrono Trigger and Sotton. To see it revived out of the blue? I’m floored.
I dunno what’s fueling this trend of rpg remasters but you won’t see me complaining. What crazy thing are they going to unearth yet? Personally, I’m looking forward to Guardian’s Crusade HD.
But I played through the first two games years ago! Not the third or fourth, because the third one wasn't Suikoden really, and the fourth wasn't much of anything. I would have tried playing through Suikoden V, but those load times were a hassle. And don't even get me started on Suikoden Tactics...
If you guess the obvious name, Sgt. Joe, you got it.What is the name of said duck, that I may Google them and learn more?

Wow, lots of defenders of Suiko 3 here. To me, it feels like it strays too far from the core mechanics, putting you in the shoes of three different protagonists and changing the combat system. People were convinced from the images and early video that Suiko 4 would be a return to form for the series, but we all know how that turned out...
Tierkreis would have been best served by not having the title "Suikoden" and thus the associated expectations thrust upon it. It's a perfectly fine DS RPG that does the best it can with how limited it is by its hardware. As a "Suikoden" game it falls laughably short and makes games like S4 feel like a genuine masterpiece by comparison.All these posts about each game in the series and not a word about Tierkreis
"The Woven Web of a Century" is essentially what killed the franchise, and by most accounts it's not really worth the time. But if you wanted to check it out, IIRC it finally got a fan translation patch a year or so back....there was a PSP game besides the ports of 1 and 2? I didn't even know that lol
I guarantee you it does not. If my Neo Geo Pocket collecting is any indication, cheap and readily available modern versions don’t actually do much to the price of the originals.
Once games hit a certain threshold they cease to be games and become “assets” to be traded back and forth between resellers or scooped up by collectors and placed on a shelf forever. They’re expensive because they’re rare objects, not because people want to play them.
