Post Your Trophy/Achievement Ideas
I'm sure I'm not the only one want who still wish any Suikoden will touch PS3 or its generation >__< especially Suikoden series is unique in one way, by having multiple paths/endings, characters you recruit, and more. Trophy will give you more replays in nowadays game, even for a game that just "beat stage 1, beat stage 2, beat stage 3, until the end"
Just for fun topic, give your ideas for trophy/achievement either to existing games or even just a wishlist for Suikoden VI loll...From my self, I can't think what best names for trophy's name so I just post criteria lol... Also, with trophy you also possible to get them and keep them even when you don't save the game after you get it. So it's possible to have trophy with Gremio alive and die for example....
Of course spoiler alert if you don't finish games yet..
I just start with general Suikodens overall:
- Get all 108 SoD and alive
- Recruit all possible characters (108 stars, non-stars, option chars like Kasumi/Valeria on S2), a challenge so you play all possible paths on the game with separate save and loaded save from previous game (S2 and S3 curse) lol...
- Perform all unite attacks
- Get all Recipes, Old Books, Seeds, and blah blah blah (depend on the game)
- View all possible endings
- Finish Richmond/Kidd/Oboro's investigations (hahaha, hell one)
- Finish minigames .... (fill blank with you want)

Re: Post Your Trophy/Achievement Ideas
Suikoden 2:
- Recruit all Flying Squirrels
- Recruit all possible characters (requiring multiple playthroughs obviously)
- SAVE RIDLEY OUTSIDE RADAT
As for the rest there could be like, discover all locations, or win x amount of gold from minigames.
The problem with putting trophies/achievements into Suikoden games is that apart from collecting items and recruiting characters, it is kind of light on side-quests and opportunities like this. Mini games are a good one, but it would have to be to achieve a certain time/amount of money to be a challenge.
There could be boss battle ones like defeat a certain boss without any party member falling. Or win a major battle without losing a unit (this may be possible in only some scenarios, really easy in S4)

The only thing Suikoden lacks...is dinosaurs.

Re: Post Your Trophy/Achievement Ideas
I think Suikoden should remain without trophies. Unless you're a trophie, you-know-what, do you really care?
Don't take this as an attack, I've always wondered why people give so much attention to trophies and achievements. Most trophies I've picked up are mostly through playing the game. Hardly ever have I gone out of my way for a trophy. I simply don't care. You don't gain anything from the trophy/ unlocks anything / makes the game better, etc. They're just there. That's all they do. Be. Nothing else.
A little bronze, silver, gold, or platinum cup. That's it. I guess you could say that I don't like them . Tbh, I'm indifferent. I just don't see their purpose. Quite often you're looking at some ridiculous act, only to get a little "pling" and a little bronze cup appearing on the screen. Well done, you've played this game for 100 hours.

Re: Post Your Trophy/Achievement Ideas
Well, some games have some effect for the trophies. Like, Final Fantasy XIII. You get a theme for some trophies, I find that as a nice addition.
I myself like trophies in most games, gives you something extra to work for. Most of the time they're well, worthless. But if you and a friend, as an example, are having a friendly competition as to who can get the most, then it can be really fun.
They're not for everyone though, some games have really tough and time demanding trophies.
But back to the subject at hand, I think Suikoden should have some basic trophies, if any.
- 108 stars
- Finish the cook-offs (Suikoden II exclusive)
- See all the different endings (Not with all the different stars, mind you, but like in Suikoden II, Fighting Jowy etc.)
- Finish it twice.

Re: Post Your Trophy/Achievement Ideas
Maybe it is just me getting older. I've noticed with a few fellow gamers that once they're getting older, they're less interested in doing menial tasks. I still remember my days in Final Fantasy X where you had the butterfly trial and the dodge lightning 200 times test. Me and some mates decided to simply use an Action Replay instead.
I do remember when I was a teenager, I was really into completing a game 100%, doing all the sidequests, getting in-game trophies if the game had them (like in MGS, etc), but nowadays, I'm just happy immersing myself in a game, without worrying about trophies. I think they kind of distract as well. If you know a trophy is coming, you're focus goes to that, instead of the game. Plus, if you're in the middle of a cut scene and you hear 'pling', it interrupts the scene. Still, to each their own.
If Suikoden were to have any trophies, it would have to be things that don't interrupt scenes. Far too often I am in cutscenes and I get a trophy and for what? Progressing into Chapter 2? Is that really worthy of another trophy? I'm looking at you, Assassin's Creed.

You do know that those trophies are optional, right? You don't have to bother with them if you don't like them. There's nothing wrong with letting others have their fun.

Re: Post Your Trophy/Achievement Ideas
Suikoden games actually are tricky game ones, while game nowadays people could get easy trophy by learning tutorial and master them, Suikoden just oh woot. Take S1 and S2 for example, there is no battle and duel tutorial. We just grind like hell then you notice a unique way of leveling. You can miss a scene and few things and more. In short there are many things that can get you screwed lol...Nikisaur wrote:Suikoden 2:

For me, it still a reward for doing something. Well the interest point is you keep them. On old games, you can get an achievement in game (in RPG, mostly will be an overpowered equipments or just key items). You start new game, you have to do all over again. For games that have multiple story paths, people will pay their attention to get another path after finish a path. Okay in term example of Suikoden, I never get Boris/Kraken on S2 or finish FC as Chris/Geddoe on S3 because they don't give you reward, even just a damn junk titles/items in your game (I don't remember if S3 has one). While I care for recruiting squirrels, with a new save icon and additional ending lines it's still has a reward (and you can keep it like trophy). Well no one also forced to get all of them in one go.Piisuke wrote:I think Suikoden should remain without trophies. Unless you're a trophie, you-know-what, do you really care?

If there is a bad thing about trophies, I call them spoilers. You'll be spoiled on endings trophy for example..

my experiment so far, but also fun to do lol....Sasarai10 wrote:Has anybody done any of these in Suikoden 2?
- Defeat Rowd in Kyaro town --> too much time consuming
- Finish Clive quest with ALL 108 stars --> done
- Defeat Leon before the final major battle (although this one depends on luck) --> yeah need luck with Fire Spear/Jeane's Lightning
- Defeat both Gorudo's army and Highland's army during the recapture of Rockaxe Castle --> Gorudo is coward much like Miklotov said, he will stay on behind so when the time you clash with him, the battle script that highland will retreat is come too soon..
- Defeat Highland army during the recapture of Greenhill,when you go with Viktor's group. --> too easy, my videos last less than 2 minutes with lucky strike

Re: Post Your Trophy/Achievement Ideas
Personaly,i've completed all Oboro's investigations,and i've earned....NOTHING,not even a letter in the comment box,where Oboro congratulating you.
Btw,it would be nice if we see in the next suikoden game of the main series a mini game were the investigations will be manual,and not auto like Richmond's/Kidd's//Oboro's...just like Norden's investigation in Rainwall.

I don't think solo challenges would make good trophies. Way too tedious.
There are some trophy ideas there though that could work.

Do you have any video of this??? I'd like to see that
Today i saved Pahn,in the duel with Teo in S1.....it was quite frustrating...i reseted my console about 10 times.
So,i will consider it an achievment
Btw,getting all stars WITHOUT a guide will be achievment...not just getting them....especially in S5,you know why
And finding Untold Clarity without a guide of course...
