Suikoden V Review

By Tim Tackett

V for verbose.

Genres come and go, but RPGs will never die. Why? Because they’re steeped in story telling, and writers are the cheapest dates in the video game industry. Konami knows this and their latest RPG, Suikoden V, is proof. Aside from its story, this game is completely unremarkable. It features inconsistent graphics, long loading times, and grating design flaws, but…

  • Great story
  • Tons of characters
  • Great voice work
  • Hit-and-miss graphics
  • Starts slow
  • Loads slow, too
  • Inconvenient spell system

-Mechanical. RoboTim.

Thousands of years ago, I raided a derelict spacecraft for parts and fell asleep, to be eventually rescued by Ben and Duke on a routine bounty hunting mission.

I gave them half the robo-parts and pleged my loyalty to their website/bounty hunting corporation.
