You sound a littke bit like alexander j newall

Incredible research and commentary as per usual.

Unreal video mate, fantastic work

Fantastic work, there's always something new to learn about Koudelka and you did a great job keeping that true

mister you deserved a lot more os suscribers

Excellent video. It’s always wonderful to see Koudelka getting some love and appreciation. :)

Retro is like 25+

Nice video thanks

Best girl

Legit just did a video on Suikoden 2 and nostalgia! The whole series is such a nostalgic trip down memory lane. Suikoden 1's soundtrack is causes so much emotion! Great video.

I actually don't know.

Gender fluidity? You’re reading too much into this through a “modern” lense. Milich and Vincent were probably gay.

Suikoden 2 is prob in my top 3 JRPGs games of all time and your voice is chef’s kiss - ez sub

Easy sub. Great video.

A masterpiece like this, must go on. Still curious about 27 True Runes.

Yoshitaka Murayama(consep & director), Junko Kawano(designer & artist) and Miki Higashino(music composer),in my opinion its the heart of Suikoden,i hope the dream could continue...

Nice retrospective vid, can't agree more on how much of an impact this game has in the JRPG community. Music was great, world and story was designed to feel like a large scale epic. Can't wait for these remasters coming out! I hope more ppl keep this series talked about so we can more games like them

Excellent retrospective!

i love the wild arms cuts. showing the book from the intro for it was 🤌

Ride the hype train my guy! im obviously here for it!

Thanks for the nostalgia!

Very nice retrospective! Didn't know about the 108 outlaws story from the 1300's 📝

PERSON OF LORDLY CALIBER!!!

Dino crisis 2?

It would've been so funny if the game was called Unicorn Ogrelord

That was the final boss malaria mosquito and she got hit with that 30%+ poison damage

Easter eggs, can’t have a game without them

In your mom

Ahh Suikoden 2! Best JRPG ever made

It meant dueling yall are too dirty minded

I agree it is definitely one of the best tactics strategy rpgs ever. Its battle system is simple and genius at the same time. I love the storyline and characters. The myriad of different choicest and how just changing out any one thing can completely change the dynamic. And hiw you set the powers to work with characters abilities and equipment. I am hopelessly addicted to it and messing around with different strategies. One area where it could improve is having more options in customization of basic recruits and adding in a real time events with battles to allow you to fully experience the combat. Otherwise its amazing. It's definitely up there with ff tactics.

Cornia is getting corny 😂😂

I'm pretty sure you're supposed to push the door OPEN, but i guess that works too...

Will say about the localization and personality thing; Played whole game from English on Expert, now relaying the game again on True Zenoiran with Japanese, from their voice and delivery of dialogue, it does seem like they changed some dynamics and personality of characters. Like Lex and Chloe reference each other when they level up. Chloe and Monica seemingly changed personalities (Chloe being a bit tomboyish in EN but girlier in JP and Monica being more prideful in EN but softer in JP.). I don't know Japanese, so I don't know what they're actually saying, but just from how they speak alone seems to be a personality change. I don't doubt they change some of the endings either considering some endings like the angels pretty much say "We will be married" in their marriage proposals (Rite scene) but in their endings they flat out just don't marry and prioritize Scarlet. This isn't anything on the game ofc, it's still a very fun game (Hence I'm replaying it.). It just feels a bit off thinking/feeling (Not "knowing".) that some things are changed from what the JP intended.

For me personally, I think the story is clear and simple. Objectives are clear. Lots of character interactions. Combat can get easy but it was fun scrapping builds and trial and error new comps. I absolutely loved this game!

Just subscribed, good content mate, I wish you success 🤘

This game is probably my biggest disappointment so far this year. Looks pretty, but an incredibly dull story and characters. Combat was also pretty easy even on the hardest difficulty

Had to force myself to stop playing in order to have lunch! It’s like they put a bunch of SRPGs together and in turn created something entirely new.. The gameplay is most reminiscent of Fire Emblem tho.. What I like about it although I’m only like 12 hrs in is it’s very challenging but seems to be forgiving at the same time .. IDK if it’s the best of the genre but it appears pretty damn close

The answer is no. Final Fantasy Tactics still holds that title all these years later.

8:08 Correction: Princess Crown, 1997 for the Sega Saturn

i really hope they bring this to pc. i really really really wanna play this

What game?

She deadass said "guess the kingdom is mine then lol" Worth, honestly

Its a great game and I think that is underrated or unkown for most "gamers"

No it's so easy to win and damage check. They said they ran out of money so it makes sense that all the enemies use basic equipment and basic ai. I put it down after the desert fight cause i got over leved defeating the infinite units with ease, i used the trebuchet once and gained so many level then immedietly stopped using it. Doubt ill pick it up again unless they have an update for it. The most fun I had was after that fight I chose to hire units slightly under leveled untill I reached a point where main quest is above my lvl. I used no uniques and it was a fun challenge. Unfortunately I didn't buy the game to not use main characters and miss dialogue. So I dropped it after that. What happened to games especially strategy being challenging? I'd rather play total Warhammer 2 than breeze through this game.

Is Age of Wonders or Heroes of Might and Magic a TRPG?

Oh my god Unicorn Overlord content my day is saved- It’s the funniest thing cause I got the demo for about 7 hours thinking wtf I’m gonna give up after 3 probably… I didn’t. I’m now on 6 hours sleep and 43 hours in

Great review! Loved hearing contextual reference to the wider genre throughout.
