You are wrong. It is the best. Quite possibly the best game ever made, period.Originally Posted by Erdrick Holmes
Fixxxed.
This is not to detract from the quality of other games. There is still a near-infinite amount of quality a game can have whilst still being not as good as Suikoden II.
why is no one extolling the virtues of suiko2??
WHY does everyone else think it's the ultimate rpg or even game for that matter?
Suikoden II is a very good game, I'll give you that. But the only thing that really seperates it from other RPGs is it's story is fantastic and it's got a ton of very good characters. The character raising system is really nothing very 'outstanding', the only thing the characters get by leveling up is stat upgrades, they can't learn new skills or spells on their own without Runes. Suikoden II is 31 Flavours of groovy but calling it the best RPG ever made kinda slaps games like Dragon Quest IV and Phantasy Star II and IV in the face.
Just my opinion, so relax.
Almost every Suikoden (except for maybe 4) finds some way to work into your heart, and stay there.

Indeed it does, because those games aren't as good as Suikoden II.The character raising system is really nothing very 'outstanding', the only thing the characters get by leveling up is stat upgrades, they can't learn new skills or spells on their own without Runes.

four was ok...people don't seem to notice that you can speed up the ship with a special button press...though it is probably the low point in the series it's still leagues (tee hee) better than a lot of rpgs
Bad pun!
I didn't like the STYLE of 4...but it was saved by the fact Ted was in it.

bad pun!?! today i have an excuse so there
and it was a good one
OH OH OH OH WESLY WESLY *waves hand in the air*
Did you actually playthose games for a few hours?
DQ IV and that Phantasy Star game you showed me (that was IV, right?), yes.
At least you got some credibility now that you actually played them.
Yeah it was IV, how far did you get in it?
Just because it has a progression system you don't like doesn't mean it's less good than games with progression systems you do like. Personally, it gets very annoying having to choose only a fairly small number of skills for your party: This is a good thing, because it makes you think about what you actually want.
Because we have debates in school. Now, I am happy to show this to my friends! *Evil Laugh*.
True, very true! SuikoIV is bad, very bad! But I like Lazlo, Punishment Rune (Cool Rune!), Soul Eater (Best True Rune ever), Ted and La Mer (Best Opening Ever).
Did you guys know that Tir passed the Soul Eater to me?
The Late Owen Macwere Production.
Also because FFX is the best non-Suikoden RPG out there.
Final Fantasy VII
