10 Things You Didn't Know About Suikoden 2

[@cyex4311]

This game literally RUINED JRPGs for me. NOTHING I've played after Suikoden 2 has left me with the same feeling of satisfaction and adoration. It's been over a decade since playing it too.

no kidding!

Ikr, even other Suikoden games can't beat Suikoden 2 The story, the art, the music, the map, the characters, the concept, everything I literally cried when Nanami died and totally shocked when Jowy killed Lady Annabelle I can't even played the game for almost 1 month lol

@@farhanmuzaki6364 I am glad there are still dedicated fans like us who are still faithfully believing that one day Konami and Muriyama (or even without Murayama....Konami remastering it is enough) will collaborate again to give us fans the chance to cherish Suikoden and faithfully support the game and it's not just a game, it is a story that really contributed to our childhood and what we are today as an individual. It genuinely touched our lives that whatever challenges may come, one can surpass it through friendship, resilience, compassion and courage. Truly, the core values of Suikoden.

@@ErickLandonRPG Its been a long time since I've played & replayed it but I actually can't remember any particular "bad translation".

Ever tried hacking in future sword Joey back into the party? Worked like a charm & is stable actually! Made the game easier too considering you keep the most useful dual combination & his Sword Rune.

Same. PS1 was a great era for JRPG's. Suikoden 2, BoF 3&4, Star Ocean 2, FF 7-9, Legend of Dragoon, Legacy of Legia, Xenogears, Lunar 1&2, and plenty of others.

I have quite the fond memories of playing through this game. Streaming it a while back was no different reliving the nostalgia. The story really brings you in as you grow to love all the characters you meet and recruit throughout the game. And then, when that fateful moment came during the Gerudo siege with Nanami taking the arrow...the feels man. Just like what happened with Gremio from the first game. Luca Blight, I swear, had this game been more well known, he would have been in the top 10 or maybe even 20 of most evil psychotic villains in gaming. Overall, the game itself will always have a place in my heart as one of the greatest RPGs of all time. That is why I will never let go of the copy I own still to this very day. A very informative list you've made.Nice job!

Suikoden 2 Spoiler in regards to the best ending. Actually IIRC Nanami needs 121 defense or higher alongside all 108 stars recruited (+ having Forgiver Sign), while also responding quick within 3 seconds to any response. If done correctly, Riou will get into battle stance as well and later Huan will request Shu to come in. This signifies, that you have fullfilled all prerequisites for the best ending.

[@LeahJade87]

Also Leknaat appears at the final gathering mentioning all the 108 SOD have gathered and unlocks the Forgiver sign, which is a very important prerequisite for all the other factors to eventually take place.

I did not play this game around release, nor did I play it for the first time in the first decade after its release. I first played this game and finished in 2013. Mind you that is nearly 15 years past its production and we were 2 generations of gaming past its original development. That said, this game was an amazing experience, one of the only games I have ever stated when I finished it "THIS is a masterpiece". For a game that had come out so long before I first played it and was THAT good was unbelievable to me, despite being a big fan of the original Suikoden. I just can't be happier at the time I'm typing this that some of the original developers are making a new game that will be similar to this series and especially aimed at being moire like the 2nd Suikoden. Unbelievable how good this game is.

as non native english speaker, I actually learn my early english from suikoden. also curious what translation part is considered horrible(IMO this is almost always happen in JRPG that translated to english) and what did native expected. at least the text is 10x better than how my local do english (SEA) also I remember about people datamined the game, and found a code in sajah village that can turn back time, maybe to re-visit our decision / new game+ but it wasn't available in the release. which answer why some items could be get after epilogue (which is no reason to) except if they actually did this new game+ scheme

[@JeremiahEcks777]

For example to name one, in the same box they call him Jowy and Joei. They have Theresa threaten Theresa with arrows. They can't spell Schtolteheim Reinbach III right (which is gone since can't spell Banner or Jowston right). They overuse ellipses. That's just two off the top pf my head.

I had all of my original copies and my original playstation, plus suikogaiden 1 and 2 which I had to order a special gameshark-like device to hook into my original psx to even be able to play Japanese games, and I couldn't understand Japanese, but it was suikogaiden so I played them anyway, with barely a very rough internet guide to do so. it broke my heart 2 years ago when all of these were stolen from me...by someone who had no fucking idea a...what those games meant to me personally, and b....how rare and expensive they are to obtain now. they probably took it to a 2nd hand store and got chump change for all of them, plus bof3, valkyrie profile, grandia 1 and 2, vandal Hearts 1 and 2, parasite eve 1 and 2, wild arms 1-5, lunar sss box set and lunar2, many ps2 titles and my system, sega Genesis and all my games.....so much anger to this person...I carried all of these around like good old and best friends for years.. still im glad I was 15 or so years old in the late 90s and got to experience the golden age. ♥

Damn dude... That really sucks. I would've cried

[@christiandiaz6848]

hahah lol those options on the fight scene in the rock castle you can choose any of the two answers is still save nanami (but still u have to have all 108 stars)

[@hugonewguy4009]

Nanami also needs 127+ physical defense or it wont work.

[@hiitme1483]

@@hugonewguy4009 121

[@Reginmund]

That's right. I was about to point out the same. I just replayed the game and can confirm it works with either option.

[@saraapples1396]

Even with it’s bad translation this game helped teach me to read I got this game when I was 6 and I was so fascinated with it that I would ask my dad to help me read it until till I could read it all on my own

[@Agostoic]

Actually started to playing this one because of your videos.. loving it as so far!

[@permeus2nd]

3:50 this is the great thing about been dyslexic most of the time your brain only half reads the words and will fill in stuff that dosnt sound right, you kinda scan over the meaning of the sentence without bothering to read the actual words, it’s done so you can keep up. Of course there are them few times when a word can throw you so much you have to completely read the sentence several times over trying to understand what it’s mean to mean.

[@crov4924]

It's so sad that the soundtracks in suikoden II aren't commonly known, even though all are beautiful and great to listen

[@seanriley1813]

Suikoden 2 is one of the most incredible games ever made.

[@expendable6373]

Konami should release the Suikoden games in an epic collection

[@the13thjoker]

They do that in castlevania on mobile thought.

[@ErickLandonRPG]

Yeah. But they probably never will =(

[@melonusk6120]

The worst part of this game that it actually ends at the end of the game

[@sandcastle1310]

till now i still curious about the other true rune, need suikoden 6 ASAP before i die

[@jentleryegobenciong6516]

Just watching your video gave me amazing childhood nostalgia :)

[@MiamiSunrise]

Suikoden 2 may be the no. 1 JRPG that I have ever played. I believe it to be that good. My experience with this game was unlike any other I have ever played. After the second game I had a hard time getting into the 3D Suikoden titles and still have trouble now. I actually wish they had kept releasing them in the same art style and in 2D. For anyone reading this and having never experienced Suikoden 2: You will not find another JRPG like this, play it now.

[@willeysingleton3057]

You can recruit the main character from the first game with the same states if you saved your game file on the same memory card, you used to save your game In Suikoden 2.

[@ChildhoodRPG]

I'm in love with suikoden since i was in elementary school and i will always be

[@Ais-ep2fl]

Need. To. Finish. Clive's. Quest.

[@FeeSaveTheQueen]

I miss this game so much, such a masterpiece

[@Precise-Sight]

Masterpiece ?? I HATE Suikoden franchise. I played Suikoden 5 (finished it) God did i hate it.. Who came up with such a idea, having an army of people to control and stuff,, awful concept.. lame games..

[@mikecoxlong4805]

Yeah man. It was a masterpiece.

[@Dad2Kids]

1st Suikogaiden scene and dialogue where Nash and Pilika meet always make me cry.

[@alexandrebrochu4265]

Saving Nanami is even more complexe and than what you mentionned. She actually need to wear armor and have a minimum defense rating of 121 if I remember correctly. And just to be clear, you need all 108 characters recruited since they are all available to recruit at this point. If you do, before invading Rockaxe, Riou will have it's 4th unique spell unlocked. If not, though luck, don't even search for the dialog option.

[@jrd1811]

I got the demo version with crash bandicoot 2: wrath of cortex when I was 8. I played it all the time and loved it, never managed to get the full game but it's a game I've always remembered.

[@xainudin108]

Suikoden 2 is a timeless classic that showcases the power of storytelling and gameplay on the PS1. This video does a fantastic job uncovering some of the hidden gems and lesser-known facts about the game. It's a must-watch for fans and newcomers alike, offering a deeper appreciation for the intricate world and characters that make Suikoden 2 unforgettable. 🌟

[@ZeckzMarquires]

I played it for the first time in 2002, I hired it from the local video store and asked to purchase it from them, still have the copy today, play it every year, still as good as it was 17 years ago

[@muhammadharris3522]

We need suikoden 2 remastered

[@leonhart110_]

Yeah

[@scottlemiere2024]

The low supply was another problem.

[@ferdinanpatawaran292]

Im lucky enough to have the Demo disk in my japanese Metal Gear Solid back in 1999, and i biught the game back then... Sleepless nights just to play the game, and got the different endings 😉😉 love the game

[@mythra2685]

I'm actually currently playing through it and absolutely loving it. Though the glitch to get Humphrey and Fitch/Futch early in the game is hilarious

[@konovolov]

I have a PAL copy in box. I kept it in a sealed plastic bag, but when i recently moved, my girlfriend thought she was being helpful by taking it out the bag, and sticking it amongst other games and cds. The case ended up getting scratched :(

[@federicoap5295]

The last point explains that why Suikoden IV felt downgraded.

[@dineinsushi]

Suikoden 2 is still my favorite game of all time and one of the best RPGs ever made. 2D artistry, great music, a tragic, sweeping story thatis political and grounded, excellent version of the headquarters mechanic and tons of likeable characters and intimate moments.

[@Precise-Sight]

Masterpiece ?? I HATE Suikoden franchise. I played Suikoden 5 (finished it) God did i hate it.. Who came up with such a idea, having an army of people to control and stuff,, awful concept.. lame games.. buaaarrkkss

[@ghastly_gaming690]

I have a physical copy of Suikoden 1 & 2. I still play suikoden 2 on psp since my ps1 is already broken. A week ago, i just continued playing it on my save file from 2019 on my psp, and on my android, I started a new game as well.

[@HardyNandra]

I was so grateful to find this hidden gem when i was young

[@Sheishi_Games]

Every aspect of Suikoden 2 has eclipsed all Suikoden games.

[@Tomcat5837]

My favourite JRPG of all time. I couldn't find it at any store when it came out and it ended up being the very first thing I ever bought off the internet.

[@macklayla5924]

Good stuff Erick! Thanks

[@ErickLandonRPG]

No problem, thanks for watching!
