It’s a great moment for classic RPGs

Suikoden is a game that has been on my radar for quite some time. An esteemed roleplaying game hailing from the original PlayStation era, it is celebrated for its expansive storyline and vast array of playable characters. Despite its reputation, the sheer scope of the game can be daunting. I have had a copy waiting in my PS Vita, anticipating the moment when I would have the opportunity to dive into it. However, after a period of anticipation, I have now embarked on playing a newly remastered collection that encompasses the first two installments of the series. This experience has led me to realize that over the past few months, my gaming endeavors have been predominantly focused on classic, turn-based RPGs. This immersion has truly highlighted the vast potential within the genre. It all began with the exceptional revamped edition of Dragon Quest 3, which was unveiled last November. This game served as a form of video game comfort food: a wonderfully simplistic fantasy quest that has been enhanced with stunning graphics, a rich orchestral score, and some much-appreciated quality of life enhancements. Shortly thereafter, Mistwalker introduced an updated iteration of Fantasian. While not a vintage title per se – having originally premiered on Apple Arcade in 2021 – it has captivated players with its innovative gameplay and captivating storyline.
