Like a weak Suikoden entry
I love Suikoden, and this game is very much a love letter to the franchise, but it feels like a game made by a bunch of amateurs rather than a highly experienced RPG veteran which is not the case given the game was directed by the series creator whom sadly passed away shortly before the game's release. Also, as noted by others, there are numerous examples throughout the game where the original script is completely changed to force a political statement which is completely contradictory to the original script. One example sees the characters comment on defeating a tough enemy, first victoriously exclaiming glee before remarking on the origin of the creature. In the original Japanese, it's just the characters wondering where the thing came from, but in the English script, someone calls the creature a "him" for some reason to which another character makes an out of the blue comment on gender profiling. It's an example of hijacking art to express a message that was never intended. If you're against the idea of changing art, then this game will infuriate you; however, if your only interest is a JRPG, specifically a new semi-entry into the Suikoden franchise, then you might find the game more palatable at a much lower price point. On gameplay alone, it's really not worth the full price.
