I'd rank 3 before 2, personally. 1, 3, 2, 4 for me. I never played 5 or Tactics.

I liked three for the four storylines and optionally being able to win tough battles scripted to also more likely lose. The graphics were good and the character art was well done.

All the characters felt like they had at least a little more attention as well.

3 has the best intro of all the series

Suikoden 2's haunting sepia tone piano opening?

3 and 4 not worth the time investment lets be honest

Oh come on, 3 was not THAT bad. Chris was hawt.

Not trying to hate on you OP, but I legit don't understand how anyone got any enjoyment out of 3, 4 or even 5. For context, I played 1 and 2 for the first time probably in 2015 or 16. I grew during the era they came out, but just never had a PS1. I absolutely loved the hell out of 1 and 2, thought they were brisk and well written and just fun.

I bought 3, 4 and 5. 5 took so long get going and the load times were just so long that I just didn't like it. Then I went back to 3 on emulation (because I just didn't have it within me to play it on PS2 without emulation throttle and save state).

I forced myself to complete it. Even with emulation speed up and I still thought the game took way too long and was pure torture to play. There was almost no good music, the battle system was terrible. The story pacing was glacial. The exploration was miserable because it was literally walking back and forth down the same nature hallways, often with camera angles that were designed with one direction in mind. No way to skip around until you've already wasted so much time on the back tracking. Like I'm blown away the OG Suikoden guy directed it. It was such pure tedium.

I don't even know how Suikoden 3 got a greatest hits, or garnered as many positive reviews as it did. It's as baffling to me as Oppenheimer film getting praise, or Everything Everywhere All At Once. I'm seemingly in the minority. I never finished 4. I had it with emulation speed up, pnach cheats to max out the stats and turn off random battles so I could sail those extreme distances to at least experience the story, and I just had no desire to keep going.

Eiyuden Chronicle was okay, but I never finished it, it felt like what 3 wanted to be, but it was too contemporary with it's anime tropes, and Motoi Sakuraba's music just doesn't hit the same as the person who did Suikoden.

Anyway, sorry, long rant, TLDR, I can't fathom how anyone got any enjoyment out of 3. Not trying to be funny, not trying to give anyone the worst day on there job, but do any of these...... F*ckers....

5 is by far the best in the series, but good luck finding a niche 20 year old game these days. Tactics is great if you like those kinds of games. It isnt in the heights of FFT or Tactics Ogre or anything, but a solid tier below those.

it was really hard to find

the actual challenge would be finding one that doesn't cost over 100$

4 was miserable to play with the insane encounter rate

[Action-Bastard]

3 has its issues but its still good, just not as great as 1/2.

4 is just downright awful. It's as though they forgot how to make a Suikoden game let alone an enjoyable RPG.

Thankfully 5 was a welcome return to quality standard of 1/2.

[valium]

4 is the worst in the series, hands down, but it was still a fun game in it's own right. They did correct course with 5 though.

4 Haters.
I for one enjoy 4 with Tactics

[Ray Rook]

I really did not like 4. You're right. I'm a 4 hater. By the time I felt like the game was getting it's legs under it, it ended. Plus the camera panning kind of made me sick.

I could see the potential and I can see how people liked it. I'd love to play it again. I just did not like it.

I hope so.

If they do remake 4, I hope they bring back the 6 person party and reduce the enemy encounter rate a bit.

[SlaveMerchant]

Hmm.. I can remember almost everything about Suikoden 1, 2 & 5. And maybe Half of Suikoden 3.

But Compare to the other 4 main game. I don't really remember much about Suikoden 4 Story, Item location etc. At best I can remember is Getting Ted from the Ghost ship and using the Arena on our Ship to Level up everyone to 90 plus.

So give us a full remaster collection of everything, Call in Anniversary Collector collection or whatever.

I want to play through Suikoden 3, 4 and Suikoden Tactic just to see what I have forgot

[Daremo]

You 4 dislike 4 without being a "hater".
That's just a dismissive term to feel better.

You will always find some people saying a widely disliked game is amazing and using that word as a shield.

Suikoden 3 might be a controversial yet my favorite, you won't see me say those who don't like it are haters.

[Chris Hansen with Dateline NBC]

They should add Suikogaiden Vol 1 and Vol 2 as a DLC. Those have so much interesting story and character context between Suikoden 2 and 3, and few people have had the opportunity to experience them.
