Another sleepless night came and went. It was hard to sleep, think about what Odessa had said earlier. Odessa no longer had to worry about the hopes of her friends. The next morning And find this fellow Mathiu. But to get to Seika, we have to pass through the Fortress of Kwaba. But we'll give it a try. We trudged to the south. None of us felt good about this. Yesterday's loss only made the trek more difficult. We soon arrived at the fortress. Let's test our luck.
Meanwhile, let's decide on some fake names. We'll be in trouble if they ask us who we are. Schtolteheim Reinbach III. How's that sound? Viktor, what the hell is wrong with you? This is the most pointless choice you will ever make.
All Three Choices We entered the fortress I'm just a poor jujube vendor, with hungry kids waiting at home Schtolteheim Reinbach III, jujube vendor.
Not you! The little runt. You look like that fugitive, Tir McDohl I thought this young fellow here looked like Tir McDohl, the fugitive. You there. Show your face. Just when things were looking their worst, Gremio slammed me against a wall I've just about had it with you! Always causing trouble! And completely useless too! No they think you're a fugitive. You're a pain in the neck even when you're doing nothing! Sir, if you find this boy suspicious, i'd be glad to lop off his head, right here and now.
I can't be thought of as harboring a fugitive. You, prepare to die! No, stop, stop! Think about it, Rosh. McDohl's son wouldn't be dressed like a beggar. There is a lot more to his turn, including a unique rune with which he is entrusted, something that the Empire desperately wants. But even then, the overall plot is full of tropes that fantasy fans will be familiar with. Where Suikoden really starts getting interesting is after you gain your castle and start recruiting members.
There are in total, each represented by their own star of destiny. Every time you gain a character, they change a part of the castle, and you slowly see your residence take on a life of its own. One guy, Sergei, is an inventor who adds an elevator, making travel faster between the floors before his arrival, laboriously walking up the stairs is a chore. Another, Sansuke, sets up a hot bath and your group can chill in a steaming tub while appreciating antiques.
An innkeeper you recruit, Marie, has a more personal connection to the main character: After Tir defies the Empire, he becomes a wanted man. With soldiers after him, he finds shelter with Marie, who runs the inn at Gregminster. Thanks to her aid, Tir and company are able to escape. Unfortunately, soldiers learned Marie hid Tir and she has to flee to avoid imprisonment. You find her hiding in Seika, having lost everything. There are terrible tragedies that occur, and many people die throughout the game.
It was a difficult decision, but for the sake of the rebellion forces, you choose to hide the news about her death. This has a ripple effect later when members eventually learn about her death and refuse to follow you, questioning your abilities and qualifications as a leader.
This in turn forces Tir to undertake quests to prove himself to them, leading to more battles. I appreciated the way Suikoden forced me to think about the effects of my actions beyond the immediate party and contextualize them in the struggle between forces and how everyone has conflicting interests.
The whole series takes place in the same universe, so the political machinations each of the nations takes part in have repercussions that echo throughout the entire series. Despite the existence of magic and dragons, it feels like a real world.
I love the fact that the turn-based combat in Suikoden lets you use six characters. The strategic element depends a lot on the formation and the combinations the characters form as they use both attacks and magic. Formations in particular are really important, as some characters can only attack from the front row and others, like archers, from the back.
