#Suikoden #RPG #PlayStation - Hry
I think Suikoden and Suikoden II deserves a remake or a reboot to be released on every system.
They deserve a triology like Lord of the rings
agreeeeeed.
IT THINK IT WILL BE BETTER IN A MOVIE THE PLOT IS JUST TOO GOOD ESPECIALLY SUIKODEN 2
I don't think nokami will make remake
Every single time :D
I don't care if Tyr is the canonical name, the main character will always be "Schtolteheim Reinbach III" to me.
I've played all American versions of JRPGs. The best memories of my life is completing these games. It was like reading really good books.
I couldn't agree more! I love JRPGs to death
Suikoden I and II are very much like a great fantasy book mixed with a little bit of choose your own adventure (if you choose to try and recruit all stars of destiny). Outside of Square these are my favourite RPGs and they make for a solid re-play every year or two for me. Don't think I'll ever get bored of them.
legend of legaia
It's funny you said that because that's how I treat jpegs like really good books I still play 16bit one's to this day because the graphic don't matter just the story and gameplay...sometimes not even the gameplay. Lol
@@devinewynder5443 don't you miss the days where you would go to eb games or blockbuster and see the new rpgs. Play the fuck out of them and talk to the employees about your experience. I remember when gremio died. Me and this dude at the game store had a heartfelt moment about life and death. Brotha, I was 11 years old but shit like that made me have empathy in my heart and honestly lead me be the man who I am today.
Leknaat handing Cleo the Fire Crystal and mentioning to her that it's her job specifically to protect Tir is probably one of the most overlooked details in the game. Among all the people from Tir's household, Cleo is the only character that will survive the whole game no matter what. Gremio and Pahn are both determinant characters, if you messed up they might actually die at some point in the story. While Ted and Teo will definitely die at some point in the story, making Cleo the only person from the start of the game that can definitely follow Tir from his start of the journey to the end, and Leknaat foreshadowed it in their meeting, it's a nice detail that I only figured out purely by chance when I was a kid.
Didn't totally realize it, but I think you are onto something with this. Good stuff!
To bad it wasn't the true fire rune and she left for the grasslands after
@@RobI-xn2zz I love the feeling of seeing her again in part 2.
Yup I kept Cleo in my party the entire game and upgraded to the Rage rune. My other two optionals were Eileen with the lightning/thunder rune and Tengaar with the Mother earth rune - Kirkis prior to tengaar
@@StewNWT Every single friend I had that played this game, kept Cleo as a main party member the first time through. I remember a few struggling with the Kwanda Dragon fight and blaming it on a lack of Cleo in the party.
"Krin steals Gregminster's treasures and vanishes."
One thing I liked about Suikoden is that not all your recruits are goody-two-shoes. You get thieves and bandits and mercenaries, etc. That's something I always thought was really cool. And when the fighting is over? They steal your stuff and run. :p
Something else that is funny about Suikoden is that if you run out of money and try to stay inside the inn at your own castle, you will get kicked out. You, the leader of the army and lord of the castle.
Bro I’m actually tearing up watching this
This was all I had as a kid...
This was awesome. Please do the rest of the franchise. This will be awesome to binge while I wait for Eiyuden Chronicle.
Agreed.
Suikoden 1 & 2 are back as a remaster!
@@fernandozavaletabustos205 I JUST saw this! 2023 needs to hurry up!
it won't be long now, hope you're all doing fine so you can enjoy the games!
@@AntonioLucas91 We’ll see. Eiyuden Chronicle is coming out so at least we have SOMETHING, but all Konami has said is “not yet.” But I’m actually replaying 1 on my Steamdeck right now.
Tickling Gremio when he was cooking once you got control of Tir always made me laugh. However, if you leave town and grind enough to make it to the mountain village solo-ing Tir prior to having a fill party, someone there gives you an extremely awesome power-up. After you get Gremio and have a 2-player party, you can return to that village and get a power up that greatly boosts the amount of money your team gets. Usually, that village is not something your party reaches until about 1/4 the way into the game, but fighting the Fur-Furs on the overworld map near Gregminster is the easiest enemy to beat. The snail monsters in the mountains before the village will be incredibly strong afainst your guys, so saving your progress and knowing you may lose makes this a great gamble.
I honestly can't thank you enough. I haven't been able to play this game in 15 yrs and have been having serious nostalgia issues. This was awesome thank you.
Thanks for the kind words, glad you liked it!
This is an excellent account of the story and I like the way you had the appropriate music playing in the background. Suikoden was the first JRPG I ever played and I thought all RPGs would be like this! It will never grow old and being reminded of the complexity and emotional power of the story is wonderful. Thank you!
Thanks for doing this video, dude. Really brings me back to some good times.
I didn’t back Eiyuu because I’ve been burned by too many kickstarters but I’ll definitely be there day one when it does come out.
Those were the days.. Loved playing them from my teenage years until now...
Best complete story explained keep it up man.
This was the first RPG I played, it's immensely nostalgic for me.
It's definitely a timeless classic....in every way.
I miss this series.
Great video man! You do a great job with these story explanations. Looking forward to your next one!
Well done summary!
Yes!!!! You told me a little while ago you were 60% done and I’ve been waiting patiently!!! Thanks for this video I can’t F@@@@@@ wait to see it
Amazing video, thank you so much. I played suikoden 1 a few years ago and had forgotten the story, thanks to this video now I can continue to 2. :)
Thank you so much. The story.. the music.., brings back some great smiles
Yes! This is pure gold. Thank you for uploading
Thank you for this. Hopefully you complete this awesome series.
3rd time watching it and I still love this, that music in the castle legit hits me in the feels. Brings back so many memories, thanks again for making this CANT wait till you do breath of fire 3
Yey thank you for doing this. I just complete the 2 suikodens game and now we will have a new suikoden which is Eiyudenn Chronicles.
The day has finally come
The man the myth the legend
Looking forward to this
This takes me back, thank you for making this.
I'm so glad this popped up in my feed. I came across the second game before I had played the first when I was little, I absolutely fell in love with the game and went looking for the first afterwards. Both games were amazing and I look forward to your future Suikoden explained videos! Subscribed!
Wound up browsing into your channel from watching Chrono Trigger OST remixes - sealed door specifically. Glad to see you're still active and sharing information about these great games! I always wanted to play Suikoden ever since I heard the Dragon Knight's Fortress theme from one of the games, and loved the artwork. I think your story beats will be the closest thing to playing it for me, so thank you!
*I love your voice timbre and the unusual intonations/accentuations* (especially on the words that sentences end with), it is a pleasure to listen to.
One tiny correction though: the game uses a mix of both Western and domestic names so "Kage" might be better pronounced as "Kah-geh", similar to Naruto's "Hokage".
On the game: characters switch sides a bit too easily, which not quite believable.
a true gem. real work of art here.
great vid
When Gremio sacrificed himself, it's the first time experiencing how a video game can sway my emotions.
Love all your vids. And you sound like Steve Blum (spike Spiegel, wolverine etc.)
Fantastic video! The comprehensive breakdown really captures the essence of Suikoden’s rich narrative and the intricate world-building. It’s impressive how the video manages to condense the complex story into an engaging and digestible format, making it accessible for both newcomers and long-time fans. Kudos to the creator for such a detailed and passionate retrospective of this beloved series!
Glad you liked all of these Suikoden videos!
Nice! Love the dedication to the series
More to come!
Played RPGs way before this but the first time I got this from a Toys 'r Us on a whim, I was hooked for life. VERY hyped for Eiyuden Chronicle!
Can't wait for that game!
I foundy original copy of Suikoden 1 at a Johnny's Toys store in a clearence bin and I was hooked from that point.
basically chinese novel water margin adapted into a game. love this game to bits watching my elder brother playing them on ps1 growing up. sweet memory.
This brought back a lot of memories and I have a manly tear in my eye. I just loved the Suikoden games sooooo much. Pls do Suikoden 2 at some point. Thank you for this AMAZING job
That fort music always got me in the feels lol, one of the goat of the PlayStation era!
Oh my gosh. I stumbled across your channel I guess somehow with the algorithm. Saw some of your content and thought “interesting.” Then I caught your Suikoden deep dives and now I’m a subscriber and thank you for this. Not many channels get into Suikoden this deeply. Might I recommend a deep dive on Suikoden 5. Greatly under rated PS2 rpg.
This was great
That is awesome. Going to buy Suikoden
My favorite rpg. Loved this video. Great content!
thank you for this really makes me want to replay these
Thank you. This brought back a flood of memories for me. My first time with Suikoden was watching my friend play it on his Playstation. I was blown away for the ensemble cast of characters, the story, and the soundtrack. I remember my heart sinking and even tearing up for Gremio, I remember how stunned I was when I had to fight and kill Teo, and...when I picked up my own copy...how overjoyed I was when we brought back Gremio after recruiting everyone. I'm tearing up as I type this. But these are tears of joy...of some of the best memories of days gone by. I really hope Konami realizes how loved these games are still.
I feel you. I would stay up late at night playing this. I bought every last one of the suikoden games.
What was the most memorable part of Suikoden to you?

Suikoden 2 is always deep af, s 5 and tactics are good also
i would say that you can use you're saved game date in the sequal game is what i like about this gameand it pretty much continues the story from wher it left off at.
Flying with dragon
@The Devil hahaha u got point.
Gremio dying from the spores got to me as a kid. Just as bad as what happened to Black at the end. What stuck out to me was thinking "wait, the castle dragon is a zombie right? So can I heal it dead?" and finding out I could! Rare at that time in western gaming.
Also the non-human characters made a big impact
you deserve more subs man
Thank you 🙏🏻
Kraze was allowed to escape? Can't say that ever happened in any of my 16 playthroughs of this game...
incredible work. Thanks.
Thanks for watching! 2 is next!
New subscriber here. Keep up the good work👍
This game gets undersold by the fan base compared with Suikoden II but Suikoden 1 has always been my favourite.
More importantly, this game has one of the greatest soundtracks of all time - the complexity, the emotion, the use of world and ethnic instruments are incomparable.
Agreed, the two are on the same great level as far as I'm concerned.
@@Xygor not really, we can clearly see that the animations and other battles modes were improved so at least on technical aspects 2 is better
Thank you so much for making this awesome video! Any plans to make Sui 2?
Yep, I am making that next.
27:54 Flik takes one for the team.
All joking aside, great work on this faithful telling of a masterpiece.
I really love suikoden,,, keep the good work
Amazing am absolute masterpiece of a vid
I grew up having played this when I was around 13 , it’s stuck with me since. This and it’s sequel is pure joy for me .
Are u going to be doing all the suikodens? That would be great love ur videos keep up the great work
This game has such a special place in my heart. I adored FFVII, certainly, but Suikoden had some astounding music, characters, story, and battle mechanics that I’ll always cherish. Same with Suikoden II.
Yep. I'm not sure why Suikoden series's popularity is not as widespread as FF series. Is it the fancy graphic?
This is one of my favourite games. Graphics were good for its time, music holds up even today, an innovative take on turn based RPG and an absolute gem for collectors of old games
Barbarossa's action was an extreme case of "I can change her"
Haha, that's true!
Thank you very much your work is great by the way could you make vagrant story and lunar silver story and ethernal blue please!! 😍
I really need to go back and play this gem, I only made it half way through back when I played it.
It's worth it man!
Update: Just beat this game yesterday. Great game! Can't wait to play the second one. Thanks for recommending it!
Just returned to this video a year after my most recent playthrough..I was pretty harsh on it saying it wasn't a patch on the 2nd... You know what I'm wrong ... This is the game that started my love of RPGs... And it had alot of heart... I remember completing it and being devastated that I didn't know if flik or Viktor had survived and gutted mathiu died..
It takes really special games to make you care about it's characters
The effort and time that must have gone into this video is impressive. I've never played Suikoden but this video makes me want to find a way to
Yo I just sub your channel this day cause I like how details you are in explain the plot of story
So keep it up also video story explain request
Can you do final fantasy 3 or 5 story
Amazing. Do the 2nd one please.
I will.
@@Xygor I cannot wait!
I remembered completing this game long ago, it was one of my favorite games for the original Playstation. Great memories. The video was awesome. ^_^
Thank you!
I randomly thought... I hope someone did a suikoden story summary and found this.
Thanks!
Thanks bro
Can't wait for Suikoden II -- my fave in the series. Please do Final Fantasy Tactics as well and also the Breath of Fire series. Subbed!
I'm currently working on 2! I would love to do FFT and Breath of Fire series in the future. Stay posted.
So when are you going to do the rest of the series? By the way, great job.
2 is next.
Any chance your gonna do a video of how to get all the characters? That was the funnest part finding all 108 stars. Just curios man thanks again for this video I’m definitely gonna watch this again
I wish I could get past the visual style of the PS2 era Suikoden games. Growing up playing Suikoden I & II as they were released I much prefer the simpler graphics. Plus the 2D sprite graphics even to this day, can show all the emotion needed for a moving story.
Amazing games, 1 and 2 feel like they truly belong together as one intertwined game.
agreed the graphics of SUikoden III IV and V are SO FUCKING UGLY.
5 did a great job with it. Has that same feel
Thank you
You're welcome! Ready for the remaster?
I love the one on one duels, war gameplay elements, how your choices affects your gameplay and each character has their own story as well, on Suikoden 1 and it is improved as well on Suikoden 2. I went really deep into this series back in the early 2000's and mostly search the internet for some game faqs as to where to get the 108 characters to complete them and back then the internet was slow since its in its infancy and I was in highschool at the time, I often borrow my friends Playstation One console to finish and replay this game since I don't own one yet. You should also make a similar video on Suikoden 2, Suikoden 3, Suikoden 4, Suikoden 5 and Suikoden Tactics and also I think Vicki was not explained in this video, how Tir got the Blinking Mirror and manage to have a fast travel on this game or is that on Suikoden 2?
this game that i played multiple times that no one else i knew played, as i got older i found my jrpg expection was so high because of this and till this day nothing as unique as this was ever re-created. im so glad Eiyuden Chronicles is in the works with the original story tellers behind the wheel
Damn this game is a gem. The music, combat system, and story are exquisite.
"Hey wanna join my army?"
"Sure but I'm not going to help you fight and I'll enjoy watching you die"
".....so that's a no then"
Love this game but some of the dialogue is unintentionally humorous.
Please make the rest of the series. :)
I do like how these games give a more realistic take on war than most pieces of fiction, magic aside. You're technically the good guy sure, but you're destroying people's homes and lives for your cause just the same and you don't apologize for it. The only weird thing is the fact that a teenager is made the supreme commander of an army, but it wouldn't be Japanese if it weren't the case.
Gremio's death always hit me hard. I'm glad he was able to be brought back, but his death hit hard
A classic moment!
The music always gets me 😓
Damn.. the full story of all suikoden series. The story is not end yet. I hope Someone continue the legacy of suikoden.
I know omg a bit late in watching this, but thanks for putting this out. I loved this game way back then. I only ever knew one person who had it n I borrowed it for a good while. I loved the mini wars that you had to cpmamd.
Suikoden 1 & 2 are back as a remaster!
Please do Suikoden II as well. Thank you :)
I'm currently working on it. It will be next.
I loved this game!
Bring back memories, i played Suikoden 1,2,4 and 5. First playing i was crying, when Gremio and Pahn died. But when i read you can save them i played it again and again. These games have a special place in my heart. And i hope they bring Suikoden 6 on the market. Thanks for bringing back memories!
Thanks! Eiyuken Chronicle, though not Suikoden, should be a good successor.
Dude, you sound like Steve Blum lol. I love it!
I don't know who that is, but I'll take it!
please do for other Suikoden games too!
Wow, I didn't know that you could save Pahn and Revive Gremio. I don't know that I'll replay it again any time soon, but I'm glad to see the "good" ending.
This was the absolute best RPG I have ever played. Best storyline and gameplay. ChronoTrigger was a strong 2nd, but Suikoden takes the cake.
Suikoden is one of the best JRPG series ever made.
I think so too!
Left out a few things throughout the game, like flik loved Odessa, and his sword is named after her
I am convinced that the whole Suikoden story/world would make for an amazing D&D campaign.
Replaying at the moment for the first time in 5 years and enjoying it thoroughly.... Not a patch on the second and that becomes clearer playing it later in life but still a great game
damn is the music from the game or you edit this yourself ? really loves it
Love it. What's awesome is even as great as this story was, Suikoden II was the game Yoshitaka Murayama wanted as the original. Can we expect a Suikoden II story video at some point in the future? :)
Next.
We found out that's not actually true. Murayama said Suikoden II's story was only properly developed after Suikoden I.
Why the hell wasnt I notified about this vid a month ago?? Freaking CZcams! The first two games..... ahhhhh....., so good!
Stay tuned, my Suikoden II counterpart comes out soon :)
Tried so hard to get that best ending. That Gremio 1v1 battle took me so many tries. Felt so accomplished when I finally got it. Might be one of the only times I’ve ever felt committed to getting 100%.
I'm in the middle of playing back through these games. Beating 1 all the way through and getting my 108 stars to start #2 off right :)
