Suikoden I&II HD Remaster Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars

Keeping this brief: if you are into JRPGs and have not played [i]Suikoden II[/i] yet, you are missing out. This port is great, despite a few imperfections and a questionable decision or two that do not maim the whole significantly. It is an overall significant improvement over the originals, which were riddled with major bugs and had awkward translations (looking at the exclamation mark abuse in the original second game).

I rarely put review, but I'll say this over and over again. Suikoden is the best JRPG franchise ever. Nobody could beat that. This game molded my values as a person - on how loyalty, friendship, trust, love, ambitions, and life should be. I just hope Konami would answer a lot of unanswered lore in the game in the future.

大好きな作品だったので定価で買ったが・・・散々延期してこの出来か・・・という印象。 まったく愛や情熱を感じられないリマスターでした。 FFのピクセルリマスターも酷いと思ったがあちらはシステム面ではちゃんと現代を意識した作りにはなっていた 新作ソシャゲやアニメ化などを売り出してブランドの復活を掲げているらしいがあまりにもゲームをプレイする人がいないのか？という雑な作りでした。 幻想水滸伝1は言うに及ばす離脱する仲間の道具はもちろん帰ってこないし当時の道具システムとか現在でやったら拷問みたいな仕様はそのまま。 2の前作主人公を無限に村まで迎えに行かなくてはならない手間とか本当に現代で必要とされていると思うか？ 感心するのはPS版ほぼまんまみたいな移植の2が1の多くの問題を解決していることだがこれは別にリマスターの功績ではない。 まず、道具周りの複雑さや道具の整理などが全くできない。自動整頓もされない。嘘だろ？今令和だぞ？ しかもそのせいで多用するワープアイテムが一生上から3番目。なにこれ？このゲームこれからずっとアイテム選択画面から2回↓ボタン押さなきゃならんの？という個所を誰も気づかないまま作られている。 初期のころのゲーム終了ボタンがない、BGMまで倍速機能使うと倍速になるというあまりにもな不具合は修正されたが節々に不満点が見える。 原作そのままって言えば聞こえは良いが手抜きにしか感じられない。 良いIPを持ってても宝の持ち腐れって感じでした。 ソシャゲやらコンサートやらアニメ化やら色々動いているが散々延期した原点のリマスターがこんな作りですべての熱が完全に冷めてしまいました。

It's a series I always wished I got into way back. Absolute phenomenal games. Especially the 2nd game! Loved the 1st game, just took a bit of learning with how the magic + runes + orbs worked. Took me way too long to realize how to get 'MP' back. Story is superb and really loved the concept of recruiting. Weapon leveling is a must too, didn't realize how important that was at first till I got stomped at the first boss. Pure comedy how the dragons sound like elephants too. Super fun experience! Now... 2. Was a masterpiece. The pacing is perfect and with the characters they swap around during the story is much more fluid. Really cool seeing 2 major characters coming back, along with a handful of others. Combat is really nice with the added ability to equip 2 runes on some characters. Felt like I could make some hit like trucks early on. Gaining money + traveling + killing monsters seemed much quicker overall. Highly recommend, like many others on here, to play these games. Absolute gems!

Phenomenal games! I absolutely LOVED Suikoden II as a kid and this was me re-living my childhood. Amazing remaster! If you love JRPG games, this is a must have!

A wonderful port of two classic JRPGs. While I had heard the name before, this collection was my introduction to the Suikoden games. The first game is a somewhat straightforward but interesting adventure while the second game, which takes place 3 years after, has a more complex, rich storyline that prominently features numerous characters and connections from/to the first game. Both games feature multiple endings and many recruits can permanently die (not in regular battles but other events) which affects the ending as well. Similarly, the first game has some dated mechanics such as no shared inventory which the second game addresses or improves upon. Both games have a somewhat standard turn based battle system including physical attacks and magic with a party of up to 6 characters (out of well over 50 possible combat recruits). There are battle speed up and auto battle toggles which are very welcome since the random encounter rate can be somewhat high and fast travel isn't unlocked for a while in both games. Outside of regular battles, the games feature base building, war battles (large scale army battles), 1v1 duels, and various minigames. Lastly, across both games the remastered visuals and art look great for the most part and there are a fair number of memorable songs.

I never played these as a kid so I dont have nostalgia for them. But playing them as an adult they are abolsolutely wonderful.

つまらなくはないが、あまり面白くもない。 古い作品なので、当時はこれでも良かったかもしれないが、装備を整えたりパーティーの入れ替えが非常の億劫。 FFみたいな、「さいきょう」装備でもあれば、それだけで随分と遊びやすさは違ったはず。

终于两部都全成就通关了，感觉挺不容易的。这应该是我那么多游戏里唯一一个预购的游戏，为数不多的原价买的游戏。一年多前发现这个合集开始预购，家庭群里有个老朋友说这是他的童年最喜欢的游戏，虽然我以前没玩过，还是毫不犹豫直接买了，等到发行了我就叫他先玩。可惜他也是没有太多时间玩游戏了，陆陆续续玩了很久一代玩了一半就告诉我，他暂时先不玩了，于是我开始玩。一开始觉得这个游戏是真好玩，但是也发现不看攻略几乎要玩不下去，不说成就，有些地方根本过都过不去。于是一路看着攻略按部就班打出一代真结局，二代继承存档，再打出二代真结局。中途印象比较深刻的除了一些剧情还有某几个小游戏成就，有点麻烦有点难。最后觉得有点意犹未尽，好游戏真的就是出品三十年之后仍然让人觉得好玩。
