I guess the characters and plot were decent, but I was worried that it might be as clumsily done as IV itself. I've heard good things about it, so I may pick it up eventually.

Suikoden I is great, but not perfect. Suikoden II definitely picked up the best parts of I, and made them better. III I liked for the most part, but I am still fond of the battle system from the first one (though the added Skill system and such is a great addition). I haven't played IV yet, though I own it, and I don't have V or Tactics yet. Did you plan on reviewing Tactics? I have to agree. Suikoden I is great, but not perfect.

I thought the strategy battle system was a bit too simplistic. Same complaint as for most of the second one; there aren't enough strategy battles without "gimmicks". I'd probably give it a higher rating now than I did when I wrote this (wrote I-IV probably a year ago, V sometime in April), and I want to play the series again. Just not motivated enough right now. Maybe I'll do that instead of the Xenosaga series. I liked 3 a lot better when I played it more recently. The first time through, I didn't understand the skill system until the end of the game. This time, though (3rd time) I explored a lot, and generally took my time, leveled up skills, and had more fun. Thanks for your comments, by the way.

Your Suikoden III rating is a bit more generous than I would give it...but it's nice to see we see eye to eye on great games like Suikoden 2 and 5. A fine review of the most underrated RPG series in the world Not a fan of the first one eh?
