See, I really liked the Chapter 1 from all the different perspectives and I didn't feel it was muddled at all. It's not so much about drama, more about questions, and again really worked with the overall themes for me of no one really being "right" in war. And I love Chris so. Uh. Yeah. Geddoe is nice but static and Hugo I can sort of take or leave, but I still like him more than Tir because yeah, silent main.

See, I guess what makes things more "genuine Suikoden" to me is the recurring themes and the world, rather than the "nameless youth with a true rune" formula. I liked that they were mixing it up, only to go back to...well, Suikoden IV.

Yeah, I think it does better than most Final Fantasy games (which are like it or not the yardstick by which the genre is measured) with alternate endings and the dilemma presented at the end of Suikoden II was great, but I liked being able to choose your own main. (Which was the interaction III offered.)

I share your complaint about V to a lesser extent. But I guess for me the TSS worked with Suiko!Politics and not against them, but I could see how to some degree it's always going to be a matter of taste.

And I agree the main villain is sort of fail, but he was never a favorite so it didn't bother me. I don't like any of the Suiko III villains on their own (bar maybe Sarah, but not in any way I could really gush over) but I did like the way they functioned as a unit. So.

I don't think Suikoden III is a game without flaws, but the whole piece really worked for me, I guess is what it boils down to.

I am kind of eternally disappointed Sasarai didn't have the hat in III though.

Just commenting randomly on Sasarai;

...Sasarai's SIII was so made of win. It made me giggle so much. Existential angst

...that's all ._.

Oh yeah, I loved Sasarai in S3. Just...if only he could have had his S2 hat.

...maybe Harmonia imposed a baggage-limit rule on its generals?

"T_T Lord Sasarai, we simply cannot stuff your hats in it our luggage anymore, you must make do with... no hat!"

Sasarai: "D: *existential angst*"

Though, the more logical explanation would be that 3D-ing Sasarai's hat would have meant more pain for the programming peeps. I mean, look at what they did to Yuber. Wasn't it official that the reason they stuck Yuber out of that armor was because they didn't want to do the coding for that and all...?
