news in the remake

[Otaku_sama33]

Hello everyone ! I never played suikoden 1 and 2 and I wanted to know what does the remake do ?
For example, the 1, did they improve the drawing art, speed, for example ?

You can move at 8 directions now, Tir in Suiko 1 can sprint, redraw of all the backgrounds (yeah they remade all and not just put a filter) and menus, some glitch fixes (Marco minigame and Matilda gates are the famous ones, but Suiko 2 was full of mini-glitches that people never took notice), 2~3~4x battle speed.

They did not changed game mechanics, sadly in Suiko 1 you still need to do a lot of "menuing", which can be a good or bad thing depending of how you look at it, personally I'm up for any quality of life changes, some players like their remasters intact.

All of the art except for the character sprites are redone.

A run button and 8-way directional movement have been added.

There's a fast-forward button in battle

The menus (which are notoriously bad in Suikoden 1) have been overhauled. They're not perfect, but they're way better.

Obviously load times are better.

its a remaster, not a remake.
remaster=only updated graphics.
remake=often new stuff which wasnt in the game before.

but yes, it looks artwork wise way better then before

sadly he didnt shown the unite combo from original to remaster which i commented aswell but ohwell.
anyways, you can see the differences in this video.

the translation in the remaster is way better aswell then in the original, they fixxed mostly all translation mistakes.
