Hello,
I'm a new member here, I wanted to discuss this with you guys and ask for your opinion before I start working on it seriously. First, I'd like to say that I'm a huge Suikoden fan, my favorite is the second, I just love the story, every part of it. Played it, and finished it countless of times over the years on every console it came on.
I'm a writer and I'm working on my own novel, but I stopped halfway to improve my writing and story-telling skills. So, I thought about this project, "novelizing" every (old) game I loved. Since they are still amazing, but people don't give them any attention nowadays because they're old and some of them have bad-enough graphics to make them ignored.
I'm still not sure about which game to start first, I have so many in mind. I want to turn Suikoden II into a novel, I know there's already an official novel for it, but it's not English, and not easily obtainable.
Here's the first chapter: http://www.recshell.com/SuikodenII.pdf
What do you guys think? Should I pursue this? Or work on another game?

I can only speak for myself, but I don't think that anyone who hasn't played the game yet would read the novelization, and everyone who has played the game alread would rather replay the game than read the script of the game again.
Also, this novelization seems to bee very dialogue heavy which I don't like to read, it's exhausting.
But if you want to do it, by all means do it.
