Lets praise Suikoden IV

[LinkOcarinaMan]

Yep, this is a topic to praise Suikoden IV, but there will be some rules.

1. - Only list ONE good thing about the game per post. List a good thing about Suikoden IV and then wait for somebody else to list a good thing about Suikoden IV. Lets see how long we can keep this going.

2. - NO SARCASM!!! Yeah, I know it is fun to make fun of Suikoden IV, but this topic is SERIOUS. Only list things that you though actually were good about Suikoden IV.

I will start.

Suikoden IV had progressive scan mode which is very nice and I wonder why Konami didn't put it into Suikoden V. This is something Suikoden IV certainly has on Suikoden V.

[The Diabetic]

It lead to Suikoden V.

[darkon]

It told the story of the Island Nations, which is cool.

[LinkOcarinaMan]

Ted being awesome and probably the most overpowering playable character in all of Suikoden.

[Akito]

I haven't played it yet, but I hear it has hot mermaids, which is a plus.

[darkon]

It has Jeane in her second skimpiest outfit ever.

[Scarface]

Best Camera of the 3D games~

[darkon]

Coolest boat ever in a Suikoden game.

[LinkOcarinaMan]

Speaking of Jeane. She is finally a playable character!!!!!

[Akito]

I might even play Suikoden IV before Suikoden III, just because this thread makes it sound so badass.

[Scarface]

The main character is named Lazlo

[darkon]

You only get to use 4 people in battle. Which adds a new element of strategy.

[Chrono of The Black Howling]

Introduced the Rune of Punishment

[Kyoudai]

It has Lino En, oh wait... no sarcasm... damnit.

Ummm... Well, Viki was in it.

[LinkOcarinaMan]

Hey, at the very least, the Suikoden IV castle/boat was better than the castle/house in Suikoden III.

Castle in Suikoden III was kind of lame. Never expands and the walls never get fixed.

[Akito]

The Suikoden IV players guide had artwork for all the characters, unlike the lame Suikoden V guide that just had CG renderings.

[LinkOcarinaMan]

Speaking of artwork. The status screen in Suikoden IV looks much better than the Status screen of Suikoden V.

You got pretty much the full body artwork of the characters in the Suiko IV status screen. In Suikoden V you only get the portrait.

[Kyoudai]

Which sucks, because Suikoden V has by far the best looking girls of any game of the series.

[darkon]

When I was on a boat in the Bay of Naples taking me to the Island of Capri I was reminded of my time playing Suikoden IV. Suikoden IV = Only video game besides Suikoden V (Because I had just finished playing it and it doesn't count as a result) I thought of in a foreign country. That counts for something.

[Scarface]

Suiko 4 also gave us the Nay Kolbold "KITTY ATTACK"

(or whatever it was called... >_> )

[Kyoudai]

GTFO Furries!

MEOW!

[Kyoudai]

Chiepoo's bow tie really seals the deal there.

[Akito]

So anyway, I decided to finally give Suikoden IV a try. I'm only about four hours in, but it doesn't seem like a bad game so far.

[Kyoudai]

I remember thinking the same thing at first, too.
