Yea antlan is correct. No TRUE runes, I should have said that…Mission based combat, I don't know about that. I also don't like that the only way you can get potch is by completely said missions. I'm wondering how potch is going to work if you only get arbitrary amounts for each mission.
So much is missing from this game for it to be a true Suikoden game. I'm really curious as to how it is going to turn out, I have a feeling there will be a little bit of the game I like but all the omissions are going to ruin the experience a little bit. The normal graphics aren't that impressive to me but some of the scenes like the opening look nice. As I've said before, the best thing Tierkreis could do is renew interest in the series notably Suikoden VI, though I doubt they've come any closer to finding a reasonable console to put it on.
tho this makes me wish I had a DS now, hmm I might start saving up.
