There is hope for Vandal Hearts!

Imagine Vandal Hearts 1 and 2 with modern graphics!!!
VH is one of my favorite game trilogies and I hope it gets remastered like Suikoden.
Funfact: In the PS1 version, you need a Full Save of Suikoden 1 in order to unlock the Gradius Sword at the start of Act 2 in Vandal Hearts 2.

I don't like the level sync in Vandal Hearts, so I've never really played them much. I wouldn't complain about a remaster, but am very doubtful that I'd buy it personally.

Vandal hearts was great for it's time, I don't think it would hold up past the nostalgia factor. I honestly hated VH2 just my opinion though, Maybe it was because I was younger but the weapon skill system felt over complicated.

That being said I would definitely buy them again as I enjoyed playing them and the hidden keys for the special vandalier class was pretty unique for it's time. definitely would be cool if konami actually started making games again and rebooted or remade with modern touches
to a lot of their older series.

Kind of a hard sell though these game types are niche now at best and no longer the heavy weight games everyone clamored for back in the 90's and very early 2000's

VH2 was really unique in how gear/loadout determined your class, and you could change it on the fly, and use it in any combination. Lots of interesting skills, and weapon types. I remember there were line rune accessories you could equip, and then you could have a mage with the delta rune and delta shock spell, which was an AOE spell that would hit everything between those characters for pretty good damage. It was fun setting up delta shock rips on enemy targets.

Way better than garbage like Lost Eidolons.

I'm glad I started this topic cause I never knew there were fans of both games still!

No.

Nothing to add, it is hard for me to imagine a "remaster" of Vandal Hearts . . . .

This game was/is awesome, but a remaster would be probably very hard....

Depends on what you mean by remaster

if you mean like FF7's remake sure it could be done but ultimately they wouldn't be the same game but going back and redoing them and updating them to more modernized systems while still keeping what made them unique would be cool. My biggest gripe about VH:1 was it was pure linear outside the optional vandalier stuff there were no side mission or dungeons so I'd definitely like to see more of Sostegaria. from what I remember (around 20 years no since I played) I remember the first having a decent story but going off the rails near the end would definitely like to see it touched up and expanded on.

if you mean just an HD remaster sure that would be fine but it's strategy stuff is kind of dated and I don't think it would be well reviewed outside the nostalgia crowd. I'd be honestly happy with just a port so I could play it again without pulling out my original ps3 praying it doesn't overheat and then finding my disk for the game lol.

The only level sync present in vandal hearts 1 was during the trials that you needed to do to get vandalier, nowhere else, and from my understanding they were only synced to Ash's level not your whole party.

And that is WHY I never use the Level Up Exploit of Chapter 2-4 on Ash! To have an EASIER time with the Trials!

Vandal Hearts Remake would be amazing.

I'd be down 100% but it doesn't have the same "lobby" as Suikoden. First I wanna see how Konami handles this.
