    Suikoden = Linear
    Xenogears = Curved

    therefore, being a fan of curved storylines, I go for Xenogears, tho Luca Blight > All

    Grahf > Luca Blight

    I haven't played Suikoden II yet (I haven't won the lottery so I can buy it), but everything is less than Grahf.

    I will do this. Nothing in my life matters except this. No moment in my life exists except this moment. I am born in this moment, and if I fail, I will die in this moment.

    Well, Luca Blight's the only human character I know that have to go through 18 people, dozens of arrows and a one-on-one fight with the main character in order to die. Best thing is that he has no True Rune or special powers on him...

    Grahf is just...powerful :P

    That's total bulltrout. Sorry, but it is. Saying Suikoden II has a completely linear storyline is like saying Lunar SSSC's plot is too prosaic. None of the plot twists are of the size of Xenogears's, true, but there ARE plot twists, and the story is much more complicated than on the surface. Also, if you played Suikoden first, the plot development of Suikoden II is that much more rewarding.

    However, you are right that Luca Blight > all, as pretty much anyone who has played Suikoden II knows.

    I suppose the Beast Rune doesn't qualify then?

    That's actually one bit of his story that I didn't completely understand, though.

    He didn't have the Beast Rune "equipped" to him while you were fighting.

    (SPOILER)The Beast Rune was passed down the Blight family, and I believe it's actually sealed into the Blight Castle(L'Renouille). Ol' what's-his-face unseals it at the end of the game - hence, the final boss battle. And earlier, Luca Blight had unsealed it to ravage Muse.

    That's the only explanation I could think of, anyway.

    Yeah, the beast rune requires a blood sacrifice before it does anything. So he has to have his strength in order to slaughter enough people for it.

    That's a much better explanation than what I'd thought of (he had it, was able to use it, and didn't use it). Fair enough.

    Agreed.

    I have Suikoden I lying around the house somewhere but I'm reluctant to play because I'm not a fan of having over 100 characters to a game.
