    Nope, none of the story lines really intertwine except Georg being in both Suikoden 5 & 2 and some cameo characters.

    No, but there'll be certain connections and character appearances that won't mean as much without playing at least 1 and 2.

    If I was going for bare minimum I'd play at least 2 and 5. 1 is great too but some lack of gameplay elements (inventory and rune slots) make it a little more of a chore.

    Each game takes place in a different country, and different time. Based on time between games and proximity of countries, some characters appear in multiple games. That's about it, though.

    For reference, it's something along the lines of

    Suiko4 --135years--> Suiko5 --15years--> Suiko1 --3years--> Suiko2 --15years--> Suiko3

    Could wiggle Tactics in after 4. Decent game in its own right, though not exactly the best of plots.

    lol

    The DS game wasn't that bad, I just didn't like the whole "alternate dimension" nonsense they went with.

    I tried the DS game, but couldn't sink my teeth into it, sadly. Suikoden is about the universe, why the hell did they put it in an alternate dimension? Fuck that.

    Agreed, I love playing a new Suikoden and seeing new parts of this massive world. Why IV bummed be out so much is that it was too far in the past to relate to other events that well. It felt disconnected, but not as much as the DS game.

    While disconnected, it did still show us a new part of the world. :D

    It's so awesome finally seeing the places that are mentioned in previous games.

    I need to finish up 2 and go through 3+ as soon as I can catch a break from all this school work.
