Obviously we need a Suikoden forum

Oops, I forgot about this thread.

I actually really enjoy Thomas' part of the story the most as well tbh. I'll write something up when I have a little more time. Until then...

I heard that the Revival Movement actually did help get S2 released on PSN. Now we just need a Suikoden VI!

Reasons Thomas' chapters are the best:
-Thomas is adorable
-Cecile with Thomas is adorable
-Look how sweet Thomas is!
-Budehuc Catle
-Thomas is adorable
-When I first played and was still an English noob, I thought Juan's name was pronounced Jew-Anne. Ah memories
-Thomas
-Is adorable

I'm sensing a pattern here...

I do enjoy Thomas's frustration if you continually refuse to rename Budehuc. I just don't enjoy most of the rest of his chapters. I still have played them every time out of a perverse sense of completionism. And it helps build up Juan's skills.

So I learned this on TV Tropes about Suikoden IV:

One feature (for some reason only available in a New Game+) is the ability to switch your onscreen character to someone besides the hero. If you go into first person mode with a variety of different people, you'll notice that this isn't just cosmetic; the perspective actually changes to match the height of the character. It's a surprising amount of effort for a feature most players will never notice.

Has anyone done this :o Makes me glad I made a NG+ save since I usually don't bother!

I had never heard of this before. I've never done a NG+ on SIV (my latest -- and only second -- playthrough was on my PS3), but I'll have to try it out if I ever get around to going through the series again.
