Suikoden V


This is a game that I have enjoyed "in excess", because I think it doesn't really excel in any area in particular but I can recommend it to anyone because it doesn't disappoint.

The story reminds me to the first Suikoden games, it doesn't try to "innovate" by telling the story from different points of view nor weird naval stories. It just tells a big, entertaining and epic plot plenty of turnabouts, treasons, surprises, etc. Which is what I loved from the series.



One of the things that I liked the most are the characters, I loved following their development and thats probably what kept me goind foward, I just couldn't stop, I wanted to know more about the plot and about the characters and loved so many of them. Plus as usual, there are more than a hundred characters to recruit.

Combat hasn't changed much, there are a few tweaks/evolutions on its mechanics but the spirit is the same, fast-easy random combats and challenging bosses.
 For the rest it keeps the usual rpg elements like towns, shops, exploring, etc. Very entertaining for any jrpg lover.



In the end this is a game I can't forget, I had much much fun, I loved the cast and it really felt like a true Suikoden experience.

Did I like it? Very
I think you will like it if you:
- Love Suikoden series
- Like jrpg

I rate my experience with a 9.5 out of 10.
