No i don't think they are annoying, i think they are cool and very helpful to the team when the going get's rough.
-
In the first, it would probably be better without him.. In the second I'd say get rid of Joachim for him, and in the third I'd get rid of Frank for him, lol.

Who said they need to replace someone? they could have just easily added him as an extra character, I've always been fond of games with many recruitable characters.
EDIT:
At first i thought it'd be pretty cool if killer could join the team. I have always been a fan of knife/needle throwers.
I also think it would be cool if veronica could join the team in SH2.

In this post i'll be quoting from other forums and sites. i also added my own comments for some quotes.
I'm so excited! my favorite rpg series of all time has released information on it's next game! suikoden tierkreis has been announced! for the nintendo DS I'd be annoyed that it's on ds if is wasn't planning on getting a DS.
anyway here's lots more information that i've been digging up to find, it's really crazy becuase it's a bit different then the other suikoden games!
Characters are 3D polygonsField backgrounds are 2D
Battles are entirely 3D
Character portraits (bust up) in conversation scenes
There is a field map
Parties of 4 "????" with faces and stats on the top screen
Looks like an orthodox RPG
Also the voice cast for five characters.
Details from the scans:
50% complete
Animated intro
There are combination attacks and support party members
"Battles are fast-paced"??you tap icons on the side of the touch screen
It seems to be a real game with 108 characters, although the headline is "The Chosen 108 heroes have been destroyed?!" So maybe there's something funky going on? But it also talks of 108 stories, so... I dunno!
also it's the return of the four character party and for the first time it may seem that mp is normal rpg magic use and not the traditional
1. 7
2. 5
3. 2
4. 1
no not that!! thats one of the best things about suikoden!!!
Apparently the game begins with the 108 heroes engaged in their final battle with the villain, and all the heroes being taken down except for four. This game's hero is not one of them, and his quest involves reassembling the 108, as opposed to discovering them.but if they are defeated does that mean they died? it's looking that way...
what happens to the original hero? is he one of the non survivors, i want to know what the characters were like, what weapons did they use? I'm suprised that there are only four survivors, there looks like alot of people were able to escape from whatever was happening to the castle.
I;m dying to know what the villain looks like and stuff like that.
I haven't gotten far enough into the scans to say for sure, but the word they used was "zenmetsu suru" (annihilate). That implies to me more than just defeated. I haven't come across anything yet that clearly states it, but it seems like the boy was the original hero. The last sentence discussing the hero on the first page ends with "108 stars are completely annihilated, but [what about] the hero.....?" That almost sounds like the hero escaped and is trying again, but I haven't read enough to say that with any certainty.I feel bad for the stars, well atleast we get to avenge them right!?
CharactersThe main character has no name, but apparently will be voiced by Takashi Hiroshi. It is unknown if this will just be in 'grunts' a la Lazlo and Freyjadour in Suikoden IV and V or like Kyril in Suikoden Tactics.
The character Jail (ƒWƒFƒCƒ‹) will be voiced by Ryotaro Okiayu. The female character Marika (ƒ}ƒŠƒJ) will be voiced by Sakamoto Maya. Ryu (ƒŠƒE) will be voiced by Tetsuya Kakihara and finally, Dirk (ƒfƒBƒ‹ƒN) will be voiced by Konishi Katsuyuki who is also voicing Viktor in the Suikoden radio drama detailed on this site.
A porpoise race (I mean a species, not an athletic competition, they are like dolphins) has been confirmed for the game.
Actual character information; The hero is a youth from an idyllic village, Sidro. Jail is a quite, but sometimes brash young man who cares about the hero and others within the town guard. The character Dirk is the leader of the Sidro town guard, he teaches the others to fight and is very strong, etc. Marika is a friend of the hero from childhood and daughter of the village chief as well as a member of the town guard, while Ryu is a vagabound who arrived in the village some time ago. He doesn't like to fight very often.
Other characters shown include Yula (ƒ†ƒ‰), a brown haired girl who appears in battle screenshots and Misrach (ƒ~ƒYƒ‰ƒbƒN), a tanned man with a small beard in the same battle shots.
Setting
The game is set in the Kingdom of Salsaville. However, the hero's home village appears to be called Sidro Village (ƒVƒgƒ‘º). Other locations include; the town of Saad, Freseria Forest, the Marcina Plains, Septaflos (the home of the porpoise-based race) and El Kalaal, the palace of a nation (not Salsaville) ruled by Danash VIII.
I belive it may be near the island nations.
here's some scans

Bottom left corner of scan 4. Is that a...shark person?His name is "Pōpasu"

Yeah i forgot about him, i remember seeing that he was a 700 year old magician and at first i thought "Hey he should be a playable character, he'd be the best magician!".
-
Thanks for the welcomes. I only have shadow hearts 2 and 3, EDIT: the third is my favorite but the 2nd is still pretty cool too. i would like to get the first one though.
My favorite rpg of all time is a tie between suikoden 2 & 5.

I have played grandia 2 and extreme. I loved 2 but i haven't played it for over 4 years and i for some reason, i am afraid to play it again i don't know why. I didn't like extreme i thought it was boring and i couldn't find any where to save when you go to the cave in the beginning and i died and decided not to play it again.

I saw this as a topic on another forum and i thought i would post it here.
How many forum members does it takes to change a light bulb?
1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed
14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently
7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs
1 to move it to the Lighting section
2 to argue then move it to the Electricals section
7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs
5 to flame the spell checkers
3 to correct spelling/grammar flames
6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid
2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"
15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "light bulb" is perfectly correct
19 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb forum
11 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum
36 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty
7 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs
4 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's
3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group
13 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"
5 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy
4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"
13 to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs"
1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again.

I don't like sudoku i find it very wierd, confusing and hard, and i hate that it sounds very similar to my favorite game series. (Suikoden)
-
I like to use Vaan, Penelo and Ashe, to tell you the truth i don't really like balthier or basch.
-
I for one do not find it boring and actually think of it as one of the best final fantasies ever!
-
I have always thought of quina as a girl becuase quina is a girls name, quina also looks like a girl to me.
-
My favorite group is Zidane, Quina, Vivi and Freya. They are my favorite characters, although i do occaisonally switch them.
I'm like the only quina fan, i love quina she is my favorite character, i've always had a soft spot for really creative characters and comical relief ones.
-
I think it's worth checking out, i actually like x-2 better than x, i am not sure why but i find x a little boring and x-2 not a bit boring at all.
-
My favorite is rikku for both of the games, i also like lulu.
-
No i haven't i got stuck at a boss that you have to fight on a airship, and i don't really like 10 and find it very hard so i just haven't played it since.
-
I am not excited about it, i am not a big fan of the final fantasy games, i probabally won't get it.
-

It's a great game that not everyone cares about or knows about , Kya: Dark Lineage (released as Kya: Fury of Brazul in Europe) is a third-person action-adventure game for the PlayStation 2, developed by Eden Games and published by Atari. The game is notable for being a markedly different style of game than Eden Games (producers of the V-Rally series of games) usually produces, as well as featuring a combat system which is much deeper than traditional platformers.
Though initially set in the present, Kya: Dark Lineage begins by transporting the titular character Kya and her half-brother Frank into a strange new world. Kya finds herself separated from her brother, with the burden of protecting a friendly tribe of creatures called the Nativs from the predations of the evil overlord Brazul and his minions, the Wolfen.
It has great graphics,unique fighting styles ,hilarious enemies.
its only for the ps2
it is an underappretiated game, also you have to have some patience to play kya dark lineage,kya dark lineage is much like beyond good and evil and malice (two other underappretiated game)
for more information on kya dark lineage go to wikipedia

This is about what video games you'd like to see a sequel to, but it hasn't been announced or even hinted that one is coming out.
The game that i want to see have a sequel the most is the game "Kya Dark Lineage" its such a great game that didn't get much attention, and the worst part is that the ending to kya dark lineage was a cliffhanger! i would love it if the creators made a sequel, i would probabally even pay 300 dollars to buy a sequel to it!
some other games that need sequels are
Malice ( i feel if they made a sequel and fixed things up they could make a really good game)
The chrono trigger/cross series.
the sly cooper series
a sequel to la pucelle tactics
i also hope they make a sequel for odin sphere, soul nomad and the world eaters and grim grimoire
that is all i can think of right now.
-
I prefer turn based, i am not sure i can say why though.
-
I like dragon quest 8, it was deffinatley a good improvement.
-
Sentinel returns. ( i didnt get what to do)
Unlimited saga. ( i idnt like how its played, the battles are all like a roulette wheel)
Dark cloud. ( you die if you don't drink water for a short period of time and your weapons break fast.)
Emphermal fantasia. ( it doesn't interest me)
Final Fantasy 7 ( i thought it was boooring!)
Final Fantasy 8 ( I thought it was even more booring than 7!)
-
I like silent protaganists, i don't have a problem with them at all. Silent protaganists give the player to put his/her shoes into the silent hero's.
-
I prefer chrono cross, i love how there was so many characters and i liked the battle system better than in chrono trigger, i haven't really played chrono trigger that much becuase i don't own it.
