Suikoden: Tierkreis Announced
New entries in the Suikoden series of games have had a permanent spot on my list of most anticipated games ever since Suikoden 2. There’s just so much to like about them; the coherent world and recurring characters, the interesting take on RPG battles, the wealth of extra material and minigames and – what is most important for me personally – the atmosphere and story that always revolves around opposing forces, moral positions and never simply “good versus evil”.
It’s been disturbingly quiet from Konami since the release of Suikoden V, but yesterday Suikoden: Tierkreis was announced. I’m not too enthusiastic about the online stuff since in the past similar promises had led to Konami neglecting the core of the game, but at this point any news is cause for celebration.
