- Suikoden 5 is set 150 years or so after Suikoden 4, at least that's what the NPC tells you (the Island Nations Federation was founded 150 years ago by Lino En Kuldes of Obel).
- Falena and the Island Nations Federation are on friendly terms, or at the very least, the Island Nation is neutral in relation to the going-ons of Falena (this, of course, is the party line and not the exact truth.)
- I'm also putting money on the fact that Hero 5 is related to Skald Egan on Ferid's side (almost 100% positive that Egan is Ferid's father). Skald and Ferid have similar hair and personalities, Egan definitely knows Hero 5, the half aborted pat on the head was painful to watch when my brain finally did catch on to all the the hints. In addition, the fact that Georg was on full apologetic mode as he was leaving... well, RELATED! So related. What this all means? Suikoden producers love their royalties and that they especially love the En Kuldes line.
- I'm also 100% positive that Georg did kill the Queen, and that Ferid stayed with her as she died. It makes sense especially if you take into consideration the scene between Ferid and Georg before the Sun Palace was attacked by Dolph and Gizel, and also that Georg was walking around half stunned when our Hero stumbled into him (after Ferid's and the Queen's deaths.) Sucks to be Georg.
- The puppet show about Princess Flare and Pirate Brandeau is hilarious.
- They named the flag ship of the Island Nations Federation fleet after Lino; The Lino En Kuldes, I can just imagine the real Lino having a good laugh at this.
Suikoden 5 continues to break my heart.

God I love Lino en Kuldes though. His Obel crown reminds me of those Hungy Jack's party hat things. I like him well enough, he was a good guy stuck in an unfortunate game. D:L
OMFG! The game is so much love! They very rarely hit you over the head with angst so much as lay the ground work bits by bits, and when the final shoe does drop it is OHSOFUCKINGBEAUTIFUL!
Lino En Kuldes is AWESOME!
*no spoilers, no spoilers*
The only problem is that it's left me with the desire to fake a debilitating illness, take a week or two off work, and play the whole series in timeline-order. *geek*
(Spoilers are perfectly fine, I'm pretty sure I have guessed most of the main plot-lines. Though I still would like confirmation about Egan been Ferid's father, thus the Hero's grandfather.)
OHHHH! TIMELINE ORDER would be so awesome. I have this urge as well. Start with Suiko4, then 1, 5, 2 and then 3 (is that the timeline order? I aways get a bit confused on the order of 1, 2 and 5).
