Suikoden Tierkreis


Genso Suikoden Tierkreis is an upcoming game for the Nintendo DS. The game was announced in Famitsu Magazine. The game opens as the leader of 108 heroes engages the main antagonist in battle. The leader is defeated along with all heroes but 4. After this introduction, the player takes on the role of an unnamed character (seemingly not the previous leader) trying to assemble the 108 heroes to prepare for an attack on the antagonist. It is currently unknown whether the defeat shown in the introduction precedes the game or if the game is actually a flashback leading to that scene. The game is set in the Kingdom of Salsaville.

Main Character
The main character of this story is a boy from a small border settlement known as Shetrow Village where he is affiliated with the local militia. Having helped defend the village from marauding bandits and monsters, he has become quite skilled. Despite this, he is rather reckless, often acting before he has thought the situation out fully. In the revealed movie scene, the 108 stars were completely wiped out, but what happened to this young man…?

Jayle
A young man also with Shetrow’s militia, Jayle is a quiet young man that prefers not to interact with people much. However, he treasures those he considers friends, and will often support the main character as if it were nothing.

Marika
The daughter of Shetrow’s Village Chief, Marika is childhood friends with the main character and Jayle. She too joined the village’s militia despite opposition from her parents. However, she didn’t do it for fun or on a whim, and she takes her position very seriously.

Liu
Liu is a young man that wandered into Shetrow Village a few years earlier and took up living there. He quickly became friends with the main character and Jayle, and though he dislikes violence, he joined the village’s militia.

Dirk
Within the militia, Dirk acts in a leadership role, looking after the younger members. He is very popular in the village, and many of the boys in the village idolize him, refering to him as “older brother.” He excels at combat and acts as the main character and Jayle’s field commander.

kinda suprising since 1,2 is a silent protagonist

i tot all 1 to 5 all silent protagonist

now latest one is big noisy protagonist

not lah, rapping~
he talks like.. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayy to fast

I feel like stranggling the hero's voice actor, he just went F1 on all his lines!!!

I so so so agree with you.
This DS is making me broke!

And i am getting this Suikoden for sure! Yea babe bring it on!

o damn
lupe semua protagonist 1-5 is silant
haha

r u guys referring to english version ker? Since i didn't play english yet... is it release edy?

Yes the English version.

besides the main character, what does anyone think of the vo?

you play which version, does the hero also speed talk in that version?

i play japanese version.. hero also talk but better than english i think.. dunno english voice coz not playing it yet...

this game is all about touch screen control? we cant use d pad to control the characters?

who said that?

i tot both can use.. i just use d pad only

no lah..u can still use the dpad

bcos i saw it stated in gamespot review so i thought touch screen control is the only control.

Thinking about getting this game. I played Suikoden 2 on my PSone and loved it. Wonder how this one fares.

Hell yeah dude, and original Suikoden II at eBay gonna cost you a bomb. ergh

suikoden series is one of my fav rpg series , expecially Suikoden 5......replayed it about 3-4 times , still dun get bored

Haha! Was replaying Suikoden 1 before Tierkreis released too.

Finished the game at 25:15.

There have been plenty of disappointments for me, but they haven't taken away from the fact that I'm really enjoying the game. There's a lot of great stuff going on in the game (mostly with the story and characters). But at the same time, I can't deny that it has more problems than most of the other main Suikoden games. My biggest issue with the game is the localization. The script itself is written quite well (except for the hero; even if it somewhat makes sense considering he was raised in a rural village, nobody else from the village talks like he does), but there are a ton of spelling and grammar errors. There's the issue with the hero's speed talking (although otherwise I've been very impressed by the voice acting), the fact that all the battle vocalizations were removed, and the awful instruction manual and pre-order "gift." It's a bit of a turn-off, especially for someone who's looking into the series for the first time and needs to be impressed.

The only thing I've found that the game has held with Suikoden is the music. The music has the feel but the game so far does not. Somehow, the music reminds me of Chrono Cross. I find the main character to be extremely annoying, not only him but Marica as well. The story could be good if they did it right, everything thus far has been predictable.

There is also the set-skills. The one of the things that made me caught up with Suikoden series is the Rune system. But somehow, there isn't any in this installment. Quite disappointing.

Not to mention that there are certain characters that you have to recruit quickly due to the affect of the storyline. But seriously, bring back the silent protagonist.

News about the official names (dunno if it's true or not)
Hero: Sieg
Company: Viele Wege
Castle: Rätselhaft

German anyone?

you can always try mod the audio back to japanese with english translation

i did with few games, it felt waaaaaaay better than the dub voiceover

Wow, Flame, that's really fast. Did you finish all the job quests?

Well to be honest, there are some missions that I skipped like the planting and catching animals and such. The other missions that are involving recruiting the Stars of Destiny, I have done it all.

If you have trouble in recruiting some of Stars of Destiny, let me know. I could give you a hand.

A piece of an advice, recruit Hafin and Nakil quickly after Asad officially joins you. Because after a period of time, you can't recruit them.

Oh yeah, you really want to recruit all 108 Stars of Destiny if you want a good ending.

do you use the wifi function? the wifi thingy sounds so cool.

should have told us earlier......

damn,this look like a nice game,might tried it out
btw,
any resemblance to suikoden 1 or 2?

WIFI? This game have Wifi? dunno that.. where the wifi function in this game?

EDIT: Read at Gamefaqs edy
"The multiplayer aspect of Tierkreis (Wi-Fi), is also accessed via this 'quest' feature."

a bit.. not much.

Ohhh

I recruited Nakil but I haven't got any chance to recruit Hafin yet. I am now at the part of defending Paramound after returning from the Scribes village.

Added on March 31, 2009, 5:56 pmNope not much resemblances other than the recruit 108 stars. Rune system is out of the touch screen, you get something vaguely similar but much simpler system. Trading is more important now, otherwise you'll have no OTH to spend You get quests (a lot of it) to recruit Starbearers, get the game moving and all.

Oh.. Hafin is dead after that 'incident'. So basically you can't recruit him anymore.

OMG Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

OMG SPOILERS!!!

Owh.. Sorry about that. Well, if you want to recruit any of the Star of Destiny and have trouble about it, just post it in here and I'll help you out.

Note: You might want to obtain Sieg's ultimate weapon; The God-Beast Sword. To do this, you must recruit Mubhal's teacher (that old lady which is in Salsabil). And Atrie will give you that sword. Really awesome!

so we won't get a good ending if we didn't recruit them all?

According to my friend that is. It's not like a good ending but you could see why the Hero is different than other Heroes in the other worlds that had been defeated if you collected all Stars of Destiny.

Bro, u use wifi function or not for this game?

Aiseh... I guess I'll roleback and replay.

Ah, sorry about that man. I want to tell you that I do not own a DS. I just play the emulator for it. Therefore, I did not use the wifi function. Thousand of apologies.


Sorry, I guess I should tell this sooner. You want guide in recruiting all 108 Stars of Destiny?

You have them?

It's not mine actually. It was done by somebody named Ikano from Suikox.

Oh, why don't you go to Gamefaq. I think they already uploaded walkthrough.

Oh cool! I went before but they didn't have it up then. Shall go check it out.

Yeah, they uploaded two FAQs now.
