I know I'm behind on replies and such but after Saturday I needed to disconnect from the internet and just relax. So, what did I do? I role-played, and I have also wracked up 15+ hours on Suikoden 4. And OMFG! KONAMI! You BITCH!
The actual sea battle is a piece of cake (I do strategy games me friends.) Hell, the actual battles have similar controls to most of these Japanese games; move, standby, action, etc. In fact it is so easy it is kind of disappointing. But hopefully the battles will require more skill later on. On the upside; you do have control of your own squads, the lack of which I still rue from the first game.
The sea travel is a good idea, even if it takes me 30+MINUTES at times to get somewhere. Novelty and such, but F%CKINGSH$T! Couldn't they make DOCKING easier?! Attempting realism is all good ang great but not when it make the player so fucking angry and frustrated that she want to throw the damn control across the room.
Plot: At present time in the game, it is a bit lacking -_- (You have no idea how much it hurt to say this.)
Characters: Silent heroes are not my thing (and why don't Konami name their bloody heroes already. In a fit of whim I named my hero; 'H4'.) There are however, some awesome characters, Kika makes me all *__* And Troy seem pretty cool (though when I first saw him I went, 'SQUALL!' *koffs*). And Snowe is a wanker. The end.
Graphics: Unfortunately, does NOT suit the game. At times it makes me wince (the Hero being an example,) but damn, I LOVE the character portraits!
Mini-Game; They have the DICE!Game! It is so addictive. I spent way too much time on it.
Overall: It is a bit lackbuster but I'm not going to stop, 'cos d00d! I have a SHIP as a castle! And it CAN only get BETTER! *touches wood*
[EDIT: H4's shorts are liek, really short *koffs* ]

still managed to run cricles around youwas so the Man Behind In The Shadows... I take that back, Shu like the spot light way too much, I adore the man!) Yes, the buckets of characters, so happy, do you have any idea how many times I went back to that fishing village to get McDohl?! (Obsessed fangirl here.) And Flik and Viktor make me so happy. Though I Ask you, WHAT IS EDGE?! He's like a rent-boy wannabe. How could any kid Viktor brings up DRESS like that?! (The trauma.)Yes, but God approved very much of Shu even if he did confusingly become not the power behind the throne but the guy always standing in front of it. XD Very, very muchArgh, I still need to finish my SII replay so I can use McDohl.What is Edge? He has "I'm supposed to reappear in the sequel" written all over him. -_-
And let's not forget the pomp And the Dramatics. Burning trees, and long speeches. The light appears and the music chages. Wish he was a True Rune holder.</S) Yes you do. McDohl is kind of overly powerful (DeathEater Rune kicks arse!) ... This is indeed a sad marketing ploy, and unfortunately like the sad fangirl I am it will make me happy -_-Grah, I now am wondering if the rumours about Suikoden V have any credence to them. -_-
Rumours for Suikoden V? Dare I ask? Am I going to be horrible traumatised?Oh, who am I kidding, tell me!
