Just saying, not all the recent races are entirely focused on water. Mostly it was just the fact that there was water around (except for the odd inclusion of the Duck Clan in Grassland) and it made sense. Mermaids on the ocean and beavers on the river.

If I wante'd to see a mix between humans and some kind of animals, I would really want to see the human-bull Minotaur! One other race that isn't a mix that I would find hilarious is a bunch of nasty goblins who roam around, causing trouble for everyone ^^

Theseus is the one who killed the Mintotaur.
And if I saw you dancing, I would spin you around, spin you around, turn your world upside down

Yeah I think it was Theseus too. But the reason he killed it isn't enough not to make a minotaur into a new race for a future game. There are a bunch of them in Cave of Wind in S2.

I agree with the idea of adding goblins in the future installments. Who doesn't love them anyway? They'd be hilarious, mind you. :P

How about the fishmen similar to Arlong and his minions in the show called One Piece? What do you think?

Speaking of new races, I think the Eaglemen/Hawkmen of Suiko 2 are a nice addition to the future installment. Also, it would be great to see some Harpies hovering above a future Suiko castle. :wink:

Moles and their underground city.

Not many indians in the game any reason why?

Know of any witches?

Well how about trolls?

Well we have a warrior village race, how about a shaman village?

Other races...

Well, to keep down the creeping Dungeons and Dragonsization (is that a word? Hellwiddit, it is now) of Suikoden, I'm inclined to go for "Player Character" versions of critters we've already seen, with the exception of Selkies (a kind of were-seal) which I suggested once. Let's see -

Land - Intelligent Ulse (which might be simply a kind of barbarian Kobold, really)
Amphibious - selkies (sea only, can attack ships and overturn boats)
Air - Eagle/hawkman (perhaps a conflict between Wingers and the hawkmen for territory, following up on the Wingers losing their home to human miners in S2)

The beavers in S5 puzzled me. I live in a state where there are indeed honest-to-gawd beavers and have to say the Suikoden ones didn't look much like beavers to me - more like marmots or groundhogs. Just a detail, but really what makes a beaver look like a beaver is the flat, oval-shaped tail. A tiny point, but it bugged me.

And as far as human societies go, I would like to see the Dragon Knights again, as a force rather than individuals.

We've had Lizards, Ducks, Beavers, Kobolds, Nay-kobolds...

I wanna see something exotic like sloths or hedgehogs. Lol.

A sloth community would be funny, actually.

----

Hero enters a Deep Forest...ONLY TO NOTICE SOMETHING IS HANGING FROM A TREE!

Choice 1: Err...Hello.
Choice 2: How's it hanging?

Choice 2 selected.

Sloth: ....Hello. Not bad.

Hero: Wanna join my army?

Sloth: Umm...not really. I'm feeling kinda lazy...maybe...if you came back later...I wouldn't be?

Hero: Ok.

--------

XD

Or frogs. Frogs would be neat. I could see some interesting unite attacks involving frogs.

What do you guys think on speculating for a new race? :D
Sloths sound cool. Thats actually a good idea.
