    Only thing I would change is Apple from A to S tier and Richmond from B to either A or S tier. In general, I love both character but that moment where Apple tried to find Shu’s coin as long as it can get him to help and Richmond’s “secret help” to ensure that Shu can join the Dunan army is top tier character move

    Millie and Simone are S tier for me, they're my favorites. Millie is the reason why i love boomerangs in video games so much, but it just stinks that most games just go with the boring sword and bow.. I wish more games had more creative weapons like boomerangs.

      Kasumi is an archer unit. Valeria's unit is the cavalry unit. Valeri'a unit is vastly superior.
      People liked Pesmerga even in Suikoden 1. I just never understood the appeal of his character. He may be good in combat, but that's not enough for me to like a character.

    Millie is one of my favourites from her peak design alone. I don’t care if her stats are mediocre, I just enjoy having her in the party and her sprite carrying around Bonaparte. I also love Lorelai. Really with Millie and Lorelai, I’m Marge Simpson with the potato.

    Chuchara boggles my mind. It could have make sense if Rulodia hadn't been a Star of Destiny so long as Chuchara was, but Chuchara isn't a Star of Destiny either. In addition to that, Chuchara doesn't have a Unite Attack with their parents either. On the plus side, Richmond's dialogue is funny for Chuchara, and I understand they got exposure in one of the Suikogaiden's, but I can't think of anything good to say. I have a gut feeling this will still the same in the Remaster

    • @CulganValya
      @CulganValya  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's been so long I don't even remember Richmond's dialogue with Chuchara. Abizboah and Rulodia had a cool unite attack. I always found it odd that Chuchara never had one with them, but they do have a fun unite attack with Viki.
      Unfortunately, I agree. I think it'll remain unchanged in the remaster. It's a shame because they would've made nice alternatives to Sigfried and Feather without punishing the player for recruiting them by locking the player out of getting all 108 SoD.

    Your explanation for why you like Lorelai so much is pretty much the same reason why people love Killey, so I get it.
    I'd personally rate Killey an A mostly because of his awesome design and being a good character. His personality is quite lacking though and they still didn't really give him one in Suikoden 5.
    D tier Killey and Clive are gonna be this videos controversies though, lol. I also completely forgot Maximillian was a character... Rating him over Kiba, Sierra, Khan, Rina, Ellie and Ridley is also uhh, not what I'd do. :P

Gosto do design da personagem e o que dizer de seu companheiro Bonaparte, uma criatura única e fofinha, o único pesar é perder um slot de magia para ter habilidade em conjunto a ele! Apesar da afinidade com Blue Gate nunca utilizei essa magia prefiro investir em Cyclone e Flowing! 🖤

    Interestingly enough, I can't stand Shu, like at all. Mathiu would take the recommendations of those around him and build a strategy to make it work. Lepant suggested going to the Warriors Village, Humphrey recommended the Dragon Knights, Flik and the Lorimar region. Mathiu accepted the recommendations of those around him. Shu never let anyone provide any suggestions or alternative strategies. I remember when Klaus tried to provide a strategy and Shu was all "nah, I got this". Then there was the whole fake rift where Ridley and the kolbold army fled in the middle of battle. That rouse was stupid, I could have one that fight without the subterfuge, and how many soldiers died for that gamble? Yeah, not a fan of Shu, that's my hot take.
    I do agree about Killey, I've never liked him, in either 2 or 5, I thought he was a jerk in both. Curious to see your rankings in the other games of the series.

    • @CulganValya
      @CulganValya  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I get that. Shu has a strong air of arrogance about him. He's good and he knows how good he is. He so good, he knows he doesn't need others advice. When he lets Apple do her thing at Muse, he knew she'd fail. Mathiu was more open to ideas and suggestions, although he would only commit to reconnaissance missions or sending small forces.

      @ yeah her unique rune is great for physical damage, she’s a fine physical character. Magic is largely negligible when it comes to damage, but she lags behind nearly anyone else in mp slots, and that doesn’t change the fact that she has no good affinity(which DOES have a decent effect on damage) and only one free rune slot after lv.50.
      And her unique rune is cool, and I’m all for personality in characters, but arguably the double-beat outclasses her unique in every way.
