Suikoden Tierkreis, Part 24

[lady_nighteyes]

Good morrow, dear children. This is Lady Nighteyes with another exciting episode of "Let's Play Suikoden Tierkreis!" Last time we beat up a hilariously dorky-looking monster and met the resident woobie. This time, the plot gets moving again.

"My name is Geschutz."

Thanks for showing off the different windows! I actually think that Window Set 5 looks really fitting, and the purple of the default kind of clashes a lot in contrast...

The "Shady Old Woman"'s hair is hair? I always assumed that it was an elaborate hat...

Geschutz, Buchse and Minen all appear to come from completely differing design schools. There isn't really any common theme to them... If they weren't all drawn in the same style, I don't know if I'd assume they were from the same game. Minen has a kind of Fire Emblem look to her.

Also, I don't know why anyone should resent that Zodiac Company has to lead the charge on Ladzaa Fortress. They were always pretty likely to be the strongest and most competent soldiers around, if only because they're the protagonists. Maybe it would have been more interesting if they were just playing a secondary role in the battle...?

Also, can Vaslof really do all the stuff he does without being accused of insubordination? ...Probably not. Must've been the One True Way, no insubordination

I can't believe this adventure hasn't been updated since last year; it really doesn't feel like that long ago. lady_nighteyes, take it from me that, whatever happened, I really enjoyed this. Thank you for your efforts.

I'm still alive, if it helps. :::PPP While the issue that made me stop in the first place has been resolved, I haven't found myself able to continue this so far mostly because I got hit with a "must play something new instead of something I know" bug. I'm still hoping to continue this sometime (there's something like 2/3 of another update on my hard drive, even), but it's just... not happening yet.

(That said, among the games I've played during this break was Tales of the Abyss, which handles the theme of rebelling against destiny with far more thought, tact, careful use of the medium, and non-execrable voice acting, so I might end up making a few extra unflattering comparisons. Abyss even addresses the issue of the inherent linearity of the script, albeit indirectly.)

I played the 3DS port of Tales Of The Abyss a little while ago, and always thought the protagonist actually got a bit more flak than he really deserved - as opposed to the protagonists of Suikoden Tierkreis, who I don't remember ever really suffering or having any real problems. Maybe time and memory are amplifying both games in my mind beyond their reality; I hope we'll get a chance to find out.
