Murayama..Thank you for everything..May you rest in peace! Your legacy will continue to shine through and touch so many hearts! Suikoden was apart of my childhood and upbringing and Eiyuden Chronicle will continue to do the same and inspire so many. Rest easy, may we see you in the stars of Destiny Murayama..
Rest in peace Murayama sensei, Thank you for everything you have given us, Suikoden has changed my life in ways i can't express. I pray for your soul, your family and loved ones and the team at Rabbit & Bear.
Rest in Peace Murayama. Thank you for this wonderful series that has touched so many of our lives over the years. And thank you for continuing your passion with Eiyuden Chronicle. We will all be able to experience and enjoy the game for many years to come, thanks to all of the love and effort you and your team put in.
this game full of memories, in your childhood u learning to be wise, balance in life, forgiveness, power of friendship, and humanity, best ever game :)
I did EVERYTHING I COULD to try and NOT play or to avoid the final duel at the end of the game. The illusion of choice in a video game. They told you you had to do something and fight your best friend in the very final scene, and I didn't want to. I wanted to just stop playing and not complete the game. That's how you know when a game is fucking legendary. Because you're so invested in the characters and the story that you do not want to perform the linear actions the game inevitably must force you to do. Masterpiece, this game.
***** After these comments here I actually looked it up on TH-cam, because I was curious. I had NO IDEA about the refusing to fight part of the ending, and thus didn't realize I'd had a choice. A very excellent "hidden" ending. :)
Kujakuseki01 I love this game too, sucked up many hours of my life, but I still remember the story, the sad songs in the OST always remind me and make me want to replay!
Suikoden II ending is indeed a bit elusive... I only got it in my 5th try I think.... This game is just beyond belief, the story and politic involved, Game of Thrones has nothing on this.... We need a film adaptation or game remake of this masterpiece....
One of the greatest JRPGs of all time. This traumatized me as a child. My favorite scene was when Riou, Nanami and Pilika were all waiting for Jowy to come back outside the gates of Muse. When Jowy came back, there was utter relief on my part. But nothing will ever be the same after that scene. Nothing... This game fucking broke my heart. It's the greatest. Better than any Final Fantasy to date including FF7. And I just had an epiphany now that one of the reasons the story works so well is because of this music. This will haunt me for the rest of my life.
the greatest RPG game of all time, my childhood, the memories and chills i get when listening to this song.. no matter how many times i play this never gets boring. Probably the best story an RPG lover can ask for. 😊
You know, I've played the classic JRPGs like FF's 4 through 10, Chrono Trigger and Cross, Xenogears, Breath of Fire etc. All of them have awesome soundtracks but this theme is probably the best main theme to an RPG that I've ever heard. No piece of music has ever set the tone for a JRPG better than this one right here. The accompanying flashback video is great as well.
Really hope they don't try to remix the music, or at least if they do give us the option to switch. Suikoden's 1 and 2's OST still holds up just fine now.
I saw this game on a list fifteen years ago. Just a list of titles with no description. I was to pick 2 for Christmas and was scanning it for rpgs having played FF7 and BOF 3. When I saw suikoden 2 I thought hmmm could be a fighter or something like that but it sounds Japanese so I decided to chance it! As soon as I got it an loaded it up to see only two options, new game or continue, I thought yessss I've got a new rpg to play! I got excited more so minute by minute as I went about camp! When I finished the opening and this music played...awestruck!! I can still recall the feelings. Best roll of the dice ever! Best game I ever played and always will be which is fitting coz it's truly a masterpiece!!
I was thrilled to know that the wonderfulness of suikoden has deeply reached the hearts of people all over the world. I believe that at least the children who experience this game will not be able to talk about good and evil in dualistic terms. The power of games is great.
+ChocoMucho2207 even the the famous final fantasy soungs is bullcrap compared to this masterpiece i diont know any better music!!! it think this song should be in every game no matter if it fifa or cod cause its epic music
My uncle bought this game for me so many years ago. He tried it first and called me telling me he has some weird ass game. It was his first encounter with JRPG genre. So was mine. OOOF all the memories, joy, sadness. When Nanami "died" I couldn't play for a week. Thats how good character developement is. You care about each and every one you meet. 108 stars of destiny. Best game I ever played. It changed me as a person and defined who I am as a human. A true master piece. No wonder every major outlet back in the day gave Suikoden 2 10/10.
To the person who left this game along with Xenogears in that trailer in VA. You left now beautiful memories of my childhood for me to pick up back then. Thank you
Well, I never really liked Jowy, but damn I need to keep him alive if I want to save Nanami(my favorite big sister) But frankly speaking, both Riou vs Jowy and Naruto vs Sasuke relationship is pretty f*cked up, I still can't understand why they fight each other, they're just too stubborn.
If only konami would or could remake this game. Give the same story amd music, only improve thr graphics, add some more mini games and character skill/passive, and definitely add more to true runes. This game would be legendary forever. Such a missed opportunity
I will always love Suikoden, Xenogears, Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Mana series, Breath of Fire and JRPGs, These games and stories touched my soul forever...There are so many underrated/unknown games, One of my favorites is Radiata Stories, no one talks about it but it's similar to Suikoden
@@matronmalice9867 Resident Evil 2, Fire Emblem Echoes, the many remakes of Lunar: the Sliver Star, there's plenty of remakes at aren't worse than the original and are likely even better.
jrpg terbaik, setiap hari aku selalu memikirkan game ini, tentang riou, jowy, nanami, para tupai bersaudara, viktor dan pedang vampirnya, flik, neclord saga, kematian jenderal ridley.. bahkan memoriku tentang suikoden 1 telah lupa semua gara2 masterpiece ini.
Listening to this whole realizing how miserable your life is due to a psychopath of a father you had in your childhood and seeing your own mother miserable with diseases and mental pain aka sadness depression even if she is strong hurts.
Well, this is indeed the best track of Suikoden II, and honestly, this track made me cry... it is so sad and powerful at the same time, I just want to get my Playstation and play again this game.
One of the best story line rpg games ever created. So much emotions. Its sad that rpg nowadays focus more on the gameplay and graphics and not on the plot. Actually the plot that moves us gamers
Seven whole months later and the joke's still going....... I hate Sony for doing this.... Once the game gets released, I will unwind my old PS3 and I will play this game to its core. My god.
as we do we all unfortunately murayama aint doing a project atm but he though about kickstarter the problem is it needs aditional artists artists and a suiko 6 with new graphics would be too hard , but still he could do a indie suiko or at least some other team if konami would have sold the franchize
Didn't play, but from the screenshots and the blurbs I googled, I believe suikopath was ripped from suikogaiden series. If it isn't retitled suikogaiden itself lol. Don't support this kind of game, please. I mean, okay, with emu whatsoever, but to take an original game (games actually) and retitled it or ripped it to be claimed as/be used for own game is a no no.
Master piece. Best game I've ever played. The theme songs remind me to childhood memories and I think this game really gives me a lot of skills which helps you in real life (friendship worth, respect, betrayals, fight for your goals...). Hope somehow it could be created a tv serie about this history and with these characters and songs!
Thanks for uploading this Yubs Rsc! Suikoden til I die! And hopefully after! In any case, bury me just outside Rokkaku. If you can find it and don't get killed en route by tigers bandits or rogue samurai. Ask Hanzo to fashion a kunai from my femur so that Mukumuku can avenge me
Actually, I got a copy on Amazon 2 years ago for about $110. Well worth it. I've played it over and over again. I love the Suikoden series, and 2 is definitely the best one of the lot.
this brings back those days that I've been playing with this game..I still play Suikoden 2 during my free time..And honestly, for me, this is the best Suikoden game..I wish Konami will continue the series.. :)
This one song from way back when envoked more emotion in me then anything now a days. It was brilliantly done. the game itself was also amazing it shows the thought people put into games back when story and caring for the characters mattered now a days its slap a random story onto some pretty graphics and make a millian dollars, ah the good old days. this was the first game that made me cry at the end
This tune is beautiful on its own, but you really can't appreciate it without the context. Near the end of the story, I was fighting tears when it would start playing.
Suikoden is such an amazing series, makes you wonder why Konami buried it. Hopefully one day Suikoden will continue and we'll find out what happened to all of the characters we enjoyed.
Rest in piece Murayama you created one of my favorite JRPG series in history.
Murayama..Thank you for everything..May you rest in peace! Your legacy will continue to shine through and touch so many hearts! Suikoden was apart of my childhood and upbringing and Eiyuden Chronicle will continue to do the same and inspire so many.
Rest easy, may we see you in the stars of Destiny Murayama..

I remember my childhood..., and just cry. "Childhood is the lost paradise which will miss forever" - Schopenhauer, Arthur.

Friendship, love, betrayal, sedition. A story for the ages. I will think of this game on my last day on earth.

Kujakuseki01 That is right, it was an awesome ending. I had to replay the game after almost 10 years just to see that perfect ending.

Amazing
Love u and ur son, man! Best wishes to u ❤️
Been a couple years! How's the lil guy doin?
Now ppl will get it confused with Final Fantasy 💀
Thank you all for listening and commenting:)
why is there over 40 seconds of silence after the track ends..?

i urge Konami to bring back this series, their fans are die hard!
It happened finally

RIP Murayama
They don't make games like this anymore, such an incredible soundtrack for an amazing story
Goodbye Murayama sensei.😢
Konami's crowning glory in the Suikoden franchise. And one of my top 5 RPGs of all time.
Murayama passed away without seeing his dream game releases. This is sad man, I feel old. I am a loyal fan to the series.
For me Suikoden 2 will always be the best RPG the Playstation had. FFVII was good but this...this was a work of art.
I saw this game on a list fifteen years ago. Just a list of titles with no description. I was to pick 2 for Christmas and was scanning it for rpgs having played FF7 and BOF 3. When I saw suikoden 2 I thought hmmm could be a fighter or something like that but it sounds Japanese so I decided to chance it!

granpa genkaku u still alivee!!!!
still one of the most emotional game (& music) i've ever known in my life...
- from Indonesia -
Thank you for sending me here, 8-bit. This is beautifull.
You know why you are here!
Back to this song when i miss my chillhood
I was thrilled to know that the wonderfulness of suikoden has deeply reached the hearts of people all over the world.
I believe that at least the children who experience this game will not be able to talk about good and evil in dualistic terms.
The power of games is great.
Every time I hear this song, always calms me down 110%. Music that heals the soul.
Best game ever... so many memories
How the fuck someone can dislike this?!man...
***** No way man. Beethoven would be all over this shit.
+Gabriel Ryota Bl maybe he disliked this because it made him cry

3 dislikes from luca, neclord & gorudo
Hahahahaha the 4th one is from Rowd
another 4 dislikes from muku" brother and sister, they probably don't understand this song
Lmao good one
Story of friendship in here is better than Naruto and Sasuke's friendship story :(
can't even compare
sasuke vs jowy ?
sasuke
Well, I never really liked Jowy, but damn I need to keep him alive if I want to save Nanami(my favorite big sister)
But frankly speaking, both Riou vs Jowy and Naruto vs Sasuke relationship is pretty f*cked up, I still can't understand why they fight each other, they're just too stubborn.
