I still like the game, but its too slow and should have different modes. Create an arena battle mode or a capture the flag mode or a straight card battle mode.

The creator left after Suikoden III. The sequel (and every game after it) pretty much lost everything Suikoden did well.
The only thing that makes it a Suikoden game is the name and having runes. They could have called it a different name and no one would really notice it was a Suikoden game.

The game has a working campaign in mid development now. It's no longer minimal engine changes every other week like during the past several years.
It's stupidly late, sure, because the devs were too arrogant and thought starting a full 3D game from scratch with a three man team was a good idea, but at least now it's going to be released.

They've barely even attempted to balance it though.

I really like the overgrowth team, David Rosen gave an awesome talk on procedural animation at GDC a few years ago, his approach to making games is pretty awesome in general.

Must be rough to cut out an entire art style because a few people you don't like use it.

Suikoden 5 was actually great, though.

No, it really wasn't. But I'm not gonna go into the huge list of problems it has because it always spawns that one Suikoden V defender. Suffice to say, it just tried to imitate Suikoden II. And that's what it ended up being. A game that felt like it was trying to be something better. Much like the latest Star Wars just feels like 'What JJ Abrams would do if he made A New Hope'.

your opinion is trash my friend
>>383947081
It was impressive back then but now it's really fucking dated.
>>383950778
Nice opinion.
>>383950945
Kinda this.
>spend years making awesome engine, super impressive for the size of team
>because of size of team, takes a fuck ton of time and the engine is no longer really all that impressive
Pretty sad really. I get why they tried what they tried, but it just doesn't work. I guess the game could still be good, but I kinda doubt it at this point.
