I loved rpgs when I was growing up. They felt like interactive books.
I love when she keeps changing mode from speaking softly to yelling 😄
Some non-spoilerish stuff about Suikoden for ya...
1. You are saying the name correctly.
2. While the games (at least all the main line games) have 108 characters for you to recruit you can pretty much stick with all the same team mates through out the game and just play with those. Each character has just about enough background and connection to the main story that it's really about who you like. Some of the 108 characters you can recruit don't even join your combat party. Some become members of your stronghold as merchants and other flavored characters to add to your story.
2a. This will be the only spoilerish style thing I mention and it's not even really a spoiler it's more of a heads up. In order to get the true ending of the games you have to collect all 108 characters. However that isn't saying to enjoy the game you need all 108, but for the true ending you need them.
3. Unlike Final Fantasy, The Suikoden series takes place all in the same world. However they do take place during different time periods and different locations. You can play each game without playing the previous, the only real downside is you'll lose out on some history with returning characters in certain games.
3a. The timeline order goes Suikoden 4, Suikoden 5, Suikoden 1, Suikoden 2, Suikoden 3. This this laid out Suikoden 1, 2, & 3 are more closely tied together then 4 or 5 are because they take place (in game) within a few years of each other.
Finally, if you don't really care for Suikoden 1 that's totally understandable, but I would really give Suikoden 2 a shot (when you find it, I know it's a expensive game), or even Suikoden 3 for PS2 a shot. Suikoden 2 has an amazing story. Suikoden 3 has a good branching story, plus there is almost no chance of you getting lost on that map.
Cheers!,
Flik
To expand on this IV is set more then a century before the others while V is set a few years before I so IV has the fewest ties to the rest.
Oof King's Field is my absolute favorite PS1 game. It was one of the first games I bought for my PS1 as a kid, and I spent an entire summer exploring the game, absolutely love the game and play it at least once a year. The series as a whole is just fantastic once you get used to the controls.
In case you want to know the games presented, they are:
1. King's Field 1 US (KF2 JP)
2. Suikoden 1
3. Parasite Eve 2
4. Beyond the Beyond
5. Threads of Fate
6. Final Fantasy 7
7. Chrono Cross
16:21 - Rue is just your bog-standard "mysterious boy" character for the most part, though there _is_ a story twist with him at the very end of his playthrough.
I like LUNAR and Chrono Cross. What keeps me playing it when i first got it back in the day was the music.
Suikoden 1 and 2 are incredible! Highly recommend trying to grind through 2. Of you so I’ll bet it’ll make you want to play through the original. I would rank Suikoden in the top ten rpg series’ of all time.
I will say this beyond the beyond is a game that will make most people not like it and it is a game that gets better the longer its played and Samson the dude who gets cursed at the start of the game is a pain for most of it but once he breaks the cursed he is one of the best characters as for the story yeah it to is bad at the start but gets better from the middle on. I get why you don't like it but it really is a great game once you get pasted the beginning but it is also a game that is not for everyone. And people already cover suikoden
You might need to have some merch w/ your "hard as BALLS!" expression on it.
🤣
Got recommended your channel! Thanks for the video I enjoyed it!
Thank you for watching! 😃
That's how I react after any boss that is a little challenging. Just finished the last Valkyrie in God Of War this evening after trying for 4 evenings. And I was screaming and flipping off that bitch! And that's how I react after every enemy in Sekiro :P
IMO Chrono Cross should have been a new IP. To me the story feels like it was a standalone story with a few ties to Chrono Trigger shoved in at the last minute to justify calling it a sequel. I actually like the battle system though.
It really should have just been it’s on standalone story, agreed. I’m have some favorites for battle systems for PS1 that are different (Legend of Dragoon and Legend of Legaia for example) but Chrono Cross just wasn’t for me.
Nonononooooo! The link at the end was major! When I played it, I was upset the entire time, the only thing keeping me into it being the great music composition. Then Chronopolis happened, and the true antagonist is revealed, and I was like hooooly shit. It's Time's revenge. Bravo, Squaresoft.
I'm not saying you're wrong in disliking it. Believe me, I was right there with you. But they changed my mind. But I only ever played it once, when it released. I couldn't suffer through it again.
@@airyshaggy83 To me it made no sense within the context of how time travel was established to work in the setting, and the few story links felt like they were either just thrown in or deliberately intended to piss fans of Trigger's cast off.
If it had to be a Chrono sequel it needed to be set much further in the timeline for the changes between the political state of the world at the end of Trigger and its state at the beginning of Cross to make any sense to me. Even the extra scene they added to later Trigger releases trying to explain the cause left me still thinking it made absolutely no sense. When you add a part to a story specifically to explain something in an earlier and a watcher or reader is still left thinking it doesn't make sense the earlier writers massively screwed up IMO.
spoilers
And there is no real reason it needs to be set in the eleventh century AD. Only one character from Trigger in that era has any role in the plot but its Lucca's connection to Kid that makes her important to the events of Cross not Lucca herself. Have a new character adopt Kid and die that way, Kid still goes for revenge leading to Cross.
None of that would have happened without the original cast's interference, which they all paid for. It also wouldn't make sense for some stranger to be targeted when they had no involvement in changing the timeline. I think what you're forgetting is that Cross was already taking place in a forced alternate timeline. That might be why it doesn't make sense to you. The story taking place 20 years later is irrelevant when you consider that those 20 years weren't supposed to happen in the first place. You also need to have an understanding of what F.A.T.E. was and when it was.
Well I can't say that I agree on some of these, especially on FF7, but kudos for actually having an unpopular opinion and not playing it "safe" with your list, only choosing games that are mostly disliked by everyone.
Understood. 👍🏻 When I don’t like a game like FF7, there are normally reasons behind it. Never afraid to share my views on games.
I am that one insane person that played Parasite Eve and was just like: "That was okay" then I played Parasite Eve 2 and was like: YES THIS is what I wanted. My only complaint is in order to get the true ending, there are certain events you need to do in a VERY small time window, and to this day I never managed to do it.
I personally liked the first Parasite Eve game. PE2 definitely wasn’t for me. 😅
Hey, randomly found your channel through this video. Very cool list!
I have to ask, how do you feel about FFVIII and RE 1, 2 , and 3?
Hey! Thanks for watching the video! Much appreciated! FF8 is great! RE3 (the original) is my favorite. I loved the original Resident Evil games on PS1. 👍🏻
@@DeeGee2009 Awesome! FF8 and the original RE games are in my top favorite games ever too. And you're very welcome!
I've finally completed my RPG collection set for PS1 and I still fully believe that Beyond the Beyond is straight ass
Parasite Eve was meant to complete several times, carrying over your equipment,
THEN do that Chrysler Tower when you are OP.
Parasite Eve 2 was Sqaure’s answer to the popularity of Resident Evil at the time.
Just boo. 🍅🍅
.i like ur video it reminds of old youtube era btw you give me sydsnap vibes so hard...
Glad someone else doesn't like FF7. I've played a good chunk of the PS1 game, beaten Remake, watched Advent Children and I still don't understand the appeal.
Same! I played the Remake as well and my mind still hasn’t changed!
Try the full version of Suikoden IV if you ever get your hands on it. You said you played it in a Jam Pack, I had a demo disk that had Suikoden IV on there, and the demo was on an island, and I loved it, I wore that demo out. One day my dad and I were shopping in the store, and I saw the game and begged him to buy it for me and he did, he was not happy about spending 60 more dollars than he planned to when he walked in lol. I played the hell out of Suikoden IV, loved it, and then found out later that's the one in the series everybody hates. Oh well!
i love the part where you go PERSONA!! its like Harry potter 'its not levio-suh... its levio-SAH!!'
I'm curious. Have you ever heard of Grandia or even played them? LRG did the physical for switch for the HD collection years ago and recently they did it again for ps4 and xbox one. I ordered the xbox version because xbox is trying to get gamers to go digital only with the game pass mess. But I do like some xbox games. But physical is what I'm all about. I like the fact that LRG is making a lot of physical xbox games and ive been buying them. It's so cool that LRG is doing this and I buy from them a lot. Switch games, ps5 games, one new gba game and now Xbox games.
I’m a physical collector myself. I don’t like getting stuff digitally unless that’s the only way. I have played the first Grandia game, but that’s it. I do own Grandia 3 for PS2, I just haven’t played it yet. LRG is great! I’m excited for Tomba and Clocktower!
@@DeeGee2009 yes very excited for tomba LRG, gex trilogy and clock tower. I almost forgot about clock tower. That one is a point and click game and I'm not into those but clock tower is loved by fans and I want to try it out. I don't really do digital either. I'm mainly physical. I import and everything if I need to just to get the game physically 😃
The title.. then 2 of my faves on screen off the bat! Had me for a second there! xD
If you can find an old Sega Genesis & Sega CD you should play the original versions of Lunar TSS and Lunar EB. There are several things they did *wildly* different in the remakes, besides adding new animated cutscenes. They're still good, in their own way, but I prefer the OG ones... having been some of my first RPGs besides the likes of FF'3' and Secret of Mana on the SNES.
I’ve been looking for a Sega CD X! They aren’t too common sadly. 🥺
I wanted to like Threads of Fate... And unfortunately, it was BAD... So many technical problems I ran into that impacted my own experience. When I reviewed it a while back, I felt like I really tried to give it a chance to get better, and I was just disappointed by the end. With a bunch of quality of life changes and tweaks, it could've been SO MUCH better overall.
I agree! The battle mechanics are one of my problems with the game. The dungeons are long and you have back track way to much. I did enjoy the humor that Mint has, but that’s it.
@@DeeGee2009 The one part when you have to run up a dungeon stairway area to avoid a monster with Rue was ANNOYING. Stuff like that got frustrating.
I like your accent and subscribed bc you're entertaining 🙂
Really? You don't like Easter Bunny's Big Day? I thought for a family friendly game about solving puzzles would be a harmless game. But I agree with your standards that the Puzzles are hard as heck. I don't know why it makes you feel like you want to rage quit and just go out and fight the power? Everyone different I guess. Plus I didn't even know it was a RPG game. You just randomly put it out there and went all AVGN on the game. Even as far as prank calling the developers. Relax it's a children game. But for real though I really did enjoyed hearing your opinion even though I kinda disagree on some. For those who new here I fully recommend watching her streams. She's a great streamer to watch.
king's field is national treasure. how dare you?! lol
😅
Parasite Eve 2 was a huge letdown
Agreed!
Interesting video. I agree with some of these takes, such as Beyond the Beyond. It was the first rpg I bought for PS1 back in the 90's. The game looks good and is interesting in some ways, but I ultimately disliked it. I also agree that FF7 is not the greatest thing ever, although I do really like the materia system and I liked many of the characters (though not Caith Sith or Vincent).
On the other hand, I really disagree on Chrono Cross. It is a very solid game, although you have to accept that it isn't Chrono Trigger 2. I can see that if you really, really love extensive character development, then the massive roster might not feel right, but I don't mind either small or large rosters. There is a small core of characters in CC that do get more development and they serve to anchor the plot pretty well, in my opinion.
I also have to disagree on Threads of Fate, at least for the most part. The game can be challenging, but the action gameplay is pretty solid, both in terms of combat and platforming--with good variety. I also have always enjoyed rpg's that have hub towns that change and develop as the game progresses. As you noted, Mint is a humorous character and her storyline and dialogue are pretty amusing. Rue is definitely a much more subdued character, and I only beat his storyline once given how boring I found his demeanor (though it makes sense given his story). Mint, though, was fantastic, and I used to just replay her story even though there is a final ending if you beat both routes.
Anyway, fun video and it made me nostalgic for some of the games I played decades ago.
Well hopefully the suikoden remasters address a lot of the bad quality of life things that brought the experience down. But Konami being Konami right now its been delayed with no release date in sight still. But if it does maybe you should try again
Hold up, when was Goku on the Recess cereal box?
Yep!
Suikoden II had over 100 charc's to choose from, way to much, Suikoden II was and still a great game.
Vagrant Story grew to be my favorite RPG on PS1. Have you tried that one yet?
I haven’t played that one yet!
Your pronunciation of Suikoden is not too bad. However, I recommend pronouncing Suikoden "SWEE-koh-DEN". Without getting too deep into Japanese, here's why: "sui" is two syllables and "den" is two syllables (n is its own syllable), but "ko" is only one syllable. Therefore, even though Japanese doesn't stress syllables as we do in English, the "ko" part is a relatively small part of the word and gets skipped over a little faster when speaking Japanese.
It's also my favorite game. I've never thought of the map as being big, but I suppose that's because there aren't that many locations and I'm familiar with the layout. The mini-map is very useful when navigating.
Edit: Threads of Fate -- Rue actually plays a lot like Brave Fencer Musashi, while Mint's gameplay is streamlined. I enjoyed Threads of Fate a lot as a kid, mostly because you get a much better understanding of the game by playing both stories. I tend to play RPGs for the gameplay more than the story and it's been a long time since I played, but I still recommend giving Rue's story a look-see.
I hope you enjoyed Radical Dreamers. I played it on emulator years ago and found it quirky but fun.
Sadly I haven’t gotten to play Radical Dreamers yet. Gotta love having a backlog. 😅 I may try Rue’s story! We shall see, depends on when I get the time. I’m a fan of Brave Fencer Musashi, so my interest is peaked. I do play more for story and gameplay is normally second on the list for RPGs. 👍🏻
@@DeeGee2009 I especially love games that integrate monster skills, so I was probably extra forgiving on the story. I vaguely recall Rue's story playing out like a poor-man's FF9 Zidane. I might have to dig it out myself and see if I still like it.
you can play any suikoden in any order- its like final fantasy
i HIGHLY recommend 4- im not even a fan of the series and i still rate that in my top 5 rpgs
Played Suikoden 4 on a demo disc the other day. Seemed way more fun than the first one.
@@DeeGee2009 just a heads up- its one of those rpgs that depending on your decisions has perma character deaths and many branching paths (an imfamous example is if you take too long to rescue yourself in a specific point in the game, you can no longer progress in the main story and you now have an alternate game with a new ending) so while the game is very replayable, maybe make sure you have many save files / save states lol
Try Suikoden 2 or Suikoden 5, even if you don't like the first one.
I’ll definitely try the second one when I get it!
Why the dislikes? She has an impressive collection and very unique opinions???
AND YES CHRONO CROSS SUCKED!!!! hate that its praised so hard lmao
Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it. 🥺
@@DeeGee2009 Great video too! I will sub but please become the anti-Chrono Cross channel the world needs 🙏
@@mysubscriptions5619 thank you kindly! Oh I don’t like Chrono Cross minus the OST and the visuals. That’s the only 2 things I give it. Never afraid to talk about games I don’t like. 👍🏻
Suikoden is the goat, but that's okay 😄
Chrono Cross is THE most overrated game of all time. Chrono Trigger's greatest assets were 1) a tight cast that each individually struggled with their own identity and how it was contextualized in the world they grew up in and 2) A lean and faster-paced battle system than its FF contemporaries that made it more accessible to fans outside of the genre. For Chrono Cross to go completely in the opposite directions from both of these and call itself a sequel always baffled me, and the way people don't see through that baffled me even more.
This, this right here!!! Exactly!
@@DeeGee2009 girl yes
I played CC way before I ever did CT and CC flaws are very apparent, that Huge cast it a total Waste unlike the Suikoden Games which do Huge casts well.
The thing about Cross is that your focus shouldn't be on the combat system nor the cast. It's the story. I don't know where this whole character identity struggle took place in the original, especially with Crono...for a guy trying to figure out who he truly is, he sure said absolutely nothing about it. But anyway, Cross writers did a great job of making you feel like the 2 stories are unrelated and then completely blindsiding you in the final act with the realization that, much like the main characters, you were intentionally kept in the dark the whole time.
@@airyshaggy83 4 of the 7 playable characters in Chrono Trigger don’t go by their birth names. How is it not about identity?
Honestly surprised Darkstone wasn't on the list then again all the games were JRPGs aside from King's Field which is western style. I do agree though that FF9 is the best FF game that was originally released on PS1 (some will argue FF Chronicles 5 and 6 are better but they were released on SNES / Super Famicom before).
I haven’t played Darkstone. I do own it though. 😅
As soon as the shade for suikoden came, the list was moot!!! Moot I say!!!
I do plan on giving Suikoden 2 a try at some point. I’ve heard that one is a bit more fun.
@@DeeGee2009 2 is a massive improvement and one of the best RPGs of all imo. We have similar tastes, so you might enjoy it
I think it's fair to not like timeless classics like Chrono Cross and FFVII. Like you, I'm also not a fan of N64 games like Ocarina of Time or anything Star Wars related. That being said... I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul ^^
I’m not a fan of Star Wars myself, other than R2D2. I was more of a Star Trek Next Generation fan myself growing up. 👍🏻
Any game is pretty awful. I can't play 😥❤
Ok, so you liked Suikoden IV but not Suikoden I. Gotta say you don’t see that too often. Trust me, just skip IV entirely. Your brain will thank you.
I only played the demo of Suikoden 4. The first one I couldn’t really get into.
To each their own LoD to me is the worst JRpg I've ever played and not because its actually the worst. others are worst but LoD doesn't do anything exceptional nor memorable and has the sole distinction of having Zero music i found myself humming along to. That's an irredeemable quality in a Jrpg for me. Its basically MID the game and that's awful, even worse Jrpgs had something that made that Something exceptional
I’m a pretty big fan of Legend of Dragoon, but I will say it’s not without its flaws. The inventory system isn’t the best (32 items and 255 weapons/armor slots), it is a bit of a time to get leveled up in the game considering you only get some much experience per battle.
I'm definitely story driven. Comes with being a writer.
Agreed! Story is the most important thing about RPGs to me. 👍🏻
You lost me on FF7! I had to rage quit the video like "what am I even watching"
To be fair, I did try the remake to see if my mind would change. Sadly it did not.
“Ohh a different opinion, unsubscribe!” Lol 😂
It is hard to trust the opinion of somebody who doesn't like the best game ever created.
@@chesspunk489 it is indeed the best JRPG ever made at least for me
How DARE you not like Suikoden and Legend Of Dragoon?! Just kidding. 😅 I love those games, but I get that they're not for everyone.
Huh? I love Legend of Dragoon. 😅 It’s my favorite PS1 game. Now Suikoden I don’t like I’m afraid. 😢
@@DeeGee2009 My bad lol
i dont like any of those either except for legend of dragoon the others were just way too boring or too hard to get into
Legend of Dragoon is my favorite PS1 game!
Persona 3: FES is great. But there’s no question Reload is the definitive version of that game.
I’ve heard Reload is great! I still wanna try FES first! Working on getting a copy of it!
@@DeeGee2009 - That’s awesome you wanna see the original first. Just be aware that you can only control the main character directly in battle, NOT your other 3 party members. Persona 3 Portable thankfully changed that, so you may wanna try Portable first (available on Switch, PlayStation, Steam, etc) and then try Reload to see how far the game has come. I’m just happy you’re interested in Persona 3. It’s my favorite RPG ever. You’ll love the story and characters.
Reload has worse animation and is censored. All content is on the disc. Original is better.
@@but_iWantedTo_speakGerman - ReLoad has worse animation? 😂😂😂
I miss my copy of Persona 2 so bad it hurts. UGH. My Saturn collection, too.
😔
Ever try Alundra for PS1 one of the best action RPGS in my opinion
I haven’t yet. I do own it though!
Its more action adventure like zelda
