I've been playing this game for over 20 years and make it a habit to replay and finish it every few years. Suikoden 2 is hands down the best JRPG story I've ever experienced. I still find myself crying during certain scenes, and you won’t believe how well-written the characters are—Jowy, Viktor, Flik, and especially Nanami. I never had a big sister, but I imagine it must feel like that when playing Nanami in this game. Buy it—you won’t regret it!

If Konami thinks they can just take 26+ year old iconic games from my childhood and zhuzh them up with newer graphics, updated UIs, and improved translations without making any changes to the gameplay, then they are 100% correct.

Suikoden 1 is a phenomenal game in its own right. Suikoden 2 is one of the best games ever made. Firmly in my top 3 of all time. How I long for the days when storytelling and world-building were paramount in an RPG... You will not be disappointed if either of these concepts are of any value to you. These games are teeming with both heartbreak and comedy. They demand a necessity for strategy and the development of multiple characters. They implement many various mini-games, different battle systems depending on the scale of the battle, multiple endings, and rewarding reasons to explore every nook. The gaming world in 2025 has become rife and cumbersome with predatory games predicated on dopamine triggers... Games that boast open worlds as a ploy to disguise their repetition and lack of depth... MMO's that build on the same senseless paradigm, often borrowing from each other with minor tweaks... Sports games that are basically only updated in name and roster from one year to the next... Unfinished games that grope for support before they are anywhere near finished... And other countless shortcomings often ignored by the masses. This is why there is high demand to remake, or remaster classics like these. I purchased these masterpieces not just for the nostalgia or the support of Konami for engaging in this project. But as a statement. I would rather spend $50 on games that I have already paid for, and completed several times already; than to continue scavenging through the sea of garbage that overwhelms the gaming community today to find the occasional gem. I implore you to do the same. Take a break from the madness, and enjoy some quality storytelling. Whether its your first venture into this world or your tenth... Come, bask in the lasting joy of being part of a quality story. Revolt against the fugacious gratification of mindless modern gaming. My only contrition is that Yoshitaka Murayama is not a direct beneficiary of this day. However, this project can and should still be viewed as homage to his illustrious works and commitment to his fans. R.I.P. you magnificent visionary.

In the 30+ years I've spent playing JRPGs, only a handful of games have left such an lasting impression on me since childhood. The Suikoden series (more importantly, Suikoden 2), had greatly shaped the way I saw the world growing up, with values and beliefs, which looking back on I still hold onto today. It would take many words to adequately describe the influence this series has had on me and the respect I have for the late Yoshitaka Murayama, but for the sake of keeping review as "concise" as possible I'll try to explain why Suikoden 1 & 2 represent the peak of the series and what sets it apart from others as one of the greatest JRPGs. Politics, drama, war, love, vengeance.. hope. The Suikoden series explores themes that were prevalent during the late 90s and early 2000s. So while the themes were certainly not unheard of or groundbreaking, the series distinguished itself through its presentation. It incorporated these themes not just in the narrative but also through its many signature systems, like 1v1 duels. These intense battles between two characters punctuated pivotal moments in the story, adding intensity after a major battle. Duels follow a rock-paper-scissors turn system based on attack, defend, and desperate attack. While the system is straightforward, it does an excellent job of immersing you into the story, making battles engaging. Some duels can be quite challenging that can catch most off guard for the unprepared player that underestimates the straightforwardness this mode can be. I honestly love this system, the stakes in these duels were heightened by the fact that you couldn't restart them if you did lose. This added an element of suspense, making each duel feel significant and the veneer and integration of the narrative put into these moments is incredibly engaging. No matter how many times I experienced these duels, they remained a highlight of the game for me. Another system widely considered a highlight for the series was the base building aspect, allowing you to recruit a large cast of characters who then contribute to a growing castle, at its core, recruiting a diverse range of characters, each with their own unique abilities and stories, which contributes to a sense of community and progression as your army expands. Although the depth of customization in Suikoden 1 might be considered somewhat shallow compared to later entries in the series. As a whole, it was always seen as a fun and engaging feature that sets the foundation for the series' signature "gathering a large group of allies" concept, but what complemented base building and made fans enjoy watching it all come together was through another staple system, army battles. A unique gameplay mode that allows you to engage in large scale battles by amassing all the characters that you have acquired (up to 108 playable characters, many said characters I might add, can be missable if you're not keen on finding/acquiring them all) against enemy armies. The possibility of permanent character death adds an element of suspense and novelty to the game. which at the time was kinda new to the JRPG scene I can't forget to mention the signature rune system that perfectly complements the "six star of destiny" grid field turn-based battle system. In Suikoden 1 and 2, the rune system are different by a small margin but but in general,it provides players with character customization options, even with some characters tied to specific runes like the souleater, the system offers flexibility in shaping units into various roles, enabling offensive, defensive, or support builds. The rune combination feature further enhances gameplay by introducing various spell and attack combos based on which rune each two character is using, encouraging experimentation. It still remains as one of my favorite battle systems in the genre that always reminded me of the Breath of Fire series. Music is phenomenal, tracks like "Days Past" (which remained as my alarm clock/ringtone for many year) , "Name Entry", and "Reminiscence" to name a few still sticks with me to this day. Suikoden 2 alone has over 100+ tracks, mostly composed by the legendary music composer Miki Higashino, best known for her work in the Suikoden series and the Gradius series are all fully redone in HD quality. Even the sound effects have also been touched up, although, some audio changes are debatable whether or not they're an improvement, but I like the inclusion none the less as this collection sets this apart from the original. All in all, I had my doubts that Konami was going to fumble this collection, knowing their background and their two-year silence on whether or not they were going through with making this collection. However, in that time, when the team announced that they had recorded new sound effects, many people weren't pleased with the changes. After receiving a lot feedback, they went back and re-recorded new sound effects to be more similar to the original game and made plenty other changes to the QoL since then. This remaster collection also polishes the beautiful sprite backgrounds into sharp, colorful, and vibrant HD backgrounds, with newly added visual background animations and effects that don't necessarily take anything from their original counterpart charms. Along with widescreen support, a cleaner and user-friendly UI that's accessible to a modern audience, faster battle speed-up options, sprinting is now available from the get-go and diagonal running is a thing now, finally. Even inventory management has been streamlined. Items are jointly shared across all members in your team, much like the later Suikoden titles and they added the biggest improvement of all... the option to turn off event timers. For those who had to deal with Clive's C&B torture for many years, your shackles have been broken! It's great to see that the studio retained the original character sprites in this remastered collection, as it helps maintain the nostalgia and authenticity of the game. The fact that the new character portraits were re-drawn by Suikoden veteran Junko Kanano to fit modern HD screens is a huge plus. As so many classic remastered games have failed to maintain the retro spirit by adding terrible CRT filters or redesigning the sprites to the point of unrecognizability. It shows that the team behind this collection understands the importance of preserving the original experience for longtime fans. Even Star Ocean 2 remaster had the right idea with this approach and look how well received that is. It's unfortunate that some of the cut content from the original version, such as post game content, were also scrapped in the collection. However, the hard mode difficulty is a welcome addition, since it provides players with a more challenging experience addressing the difficulty most players desired in the original titles. Truth be told, its somewhat disheartening to think that we may never get a Suikoden 6 and even if we did, it wouldn't feel like Suikoden considering the series creator, Yoshitaka Murayama is no longer with us. There are so many unanswered questions about different regions and true runes, as well as the true origins of characters like Jeane and Viki. We missed out on so much in terms of untold stories. However, I'm grateful that Konami and the team behind this collection brought back such an important series to me for a modern audience to experience. If you love classical JRPGs. Just for Suikoden 2 alone, this collection is a must-play, as it's still of the best all around classical JRPG out there but it can't go without saying that it wouldn't be as great (as a stand alone) without the prequel. The first game laid the foundation and did all the heavy lifting, making both essential for fans to experience on their own. With that said.. Pass me a bowl, we tasting Gremio's famous stew again... for Murayama sake. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7CKWhNB4Es] There are now 109 stars of Destiny.

Better than Eiyuden Chronicles… On a serious note, this game isn't a remake, is a remaster, it doesn't have many of the contemporary jrpgs qol improvements for that reason. Despite that, it has a proper translation this time since the og game on ps1 had certain parts rushed and broken, for now most of them are faithful to the original game with slight changes to add more text in certain characters and keeping their original intended message (so far as I know). The new artstyle for portraits, sprites and scenery may look odd in certain areas and great in others, it's a hit/miss situation. And we have a new re-arranged soundtrack. I bought it despite those flaws because I love these series, it has 6 great games (yes, even Suikoden 4) with 2 VNs, and 3 decent spinoffs even if those are not related to the main timeline. It has an expansive lore that unfortunately was never finished and left many questions to be speculated in order to seek a response, and thus left the fans waiting for more of this franchise. It had nice characters with great development arcs and conflicts that kept stakes and interest in their stories. Luca Blight is still my favourite villain of any game I’ve ever played. And from party members, Sierra and Kasumi, whose designs are simple yet lovely, haven't been dethroned from my heart. I wish this series to continue on, and for the price, if I can play once again these games with a newly look and proper bug fixes that the original game had, support these series and hope for a new entry, then yes, it worth the price for 2 games and one of them being one of the best jrpgs I’ve ever played. Suikoden 1 and 2 are beloved not only because they were great games back on ps1, but because their story, music, characters and artstyle still holds up and are a joy to play even nowadays. If you don’t want to buy this remaster I can understand your point, but try the OG games, they are still great for today's standards. Besides, it’s also nice to see a work of Murayama being respected and in a modern engine with their original vision and story not being defiled, to keep his memory alive.
