It's a side game. Most likely to tie into Suikoden VI similarly to how Suikogaiden II tied into and brought about III.

looks fine to me

It's not like 2d would actually help the game sell. It'd probably do worse.

If you were a 3D artist in the gaming industry who thought that N64 was the pinnacle of 3D technology, you must be having a blast working right now

Meh, Suikoden II was ugly as sin and it was still one of the best RPGs ever.

suikoden has never been a looker but even shitty 2d would have been preferable to the eye-gougingly ugly 3d in tierkreis

You know what I miss more than anything? Having six people in your party as opposed to four. Did they ever go back to that after S3?

* Its design is comparable to previous Suikoden titles.
* Battle System controlled by d-pad or stylus.
* Co-op attacks still exist.
* Short, medium, and long-ranged attacks.
* Game progression mission based.
* Potch gained from completed missions, not dropped from enemies.
* Weapons bought instead of upgraded.
* No True Runes
* No one-on-one duels
* No strategic battles
* No re-occurring characters confirmed yet.
* Set in parallel world. ???

No strategic battles and no 1-on-1 duels isn't a big deal, those kind of sucked anyway, especially the strategic battles. No true runs is WTF, and I'm not sure if I like the sound of a mission based structure. It makes it sound like there'll be less freedom. We'll have to see.

No weapon upgrades either. Its like Konami are going out of their way to make this a bog standard JRPG

Fortunately its reading more and more like a "Spin off" in the complete sense (Parallel World :lol )

There probably won't be a Suikoden VI after this. Good riddance to bad series :lol

Sure the series has sucked since II, but it's not like the staff have left or anything.
...oh wait they have :lol

;_;  Maybe it's for the better to put this franchise to rest.  Still pretty dick that they basically setup this huge Harmonia-based epic Suikoden game in the background of all the other games and then just...never made it.  Japanese devs seem to love teasing good games while developing shit ones unfortunately.

The backgrounds look cool, the battles look fast. There may be some hope for this yet, even if the characters look like FFCC DS rejects...

Doesn't really work if the franchise dies along the way!
