Saw the Suikoden thread bumped and was thinking "what sort of disappointment am I due for this time?" What a wonderful surprise. Excited for this!

"2022"
lol
that said, i'll be excited to pick this up when it actually releases, but i'm not falling for another kickstarter release date. by the time it releases, the gap between it and the first time i played a suikoden game (2001-2002?) will probably be old enough to drink by a couple years.
BUT CAN WE FINALLY GO TO HARMONIA!?
On one hand I’m super excited about this, but on the other I’m saddened that this seems like the death knell to getting any resolution to the Suikoden story.
I wanted to see my dude Tir and all the other true runes in one final apocalyptic battle.
We got the animated series and a re-release.

Unless they wrote out like the entire Suikoden storyline and Konami owns it, I don't see what is stopping them from simply continuing on with the world they've built. Picking and choosing their stories concerning the remaining True Runes, retcon a few details to avoid Konami being jerks and defending a Crystal Tower copyright claim, and just proceed as planned with Suikoden 6 under a different name.
It's kind of hard to just continue things when you'd have to change all of the characters.
I mean, outside of a handful of characters there was little overlap between titles. Granted, some of those characters are pretty major (Yuber, Georg, Jeanne, Leknaat, etc.) but they could be pretty clever and have Hikusaac under an assumed name, people operating under aliases, or just very thinly veiled references to being specific people or places.
Im not expecting that in full. Honestly, a Suikoden 6 under this title could just as easily explore the Nameless Lands, Armes, or Harmonia with little to no overlap with Suiko 1-5.

I want those 12" figures so bad.
Btw. Seems no silent protagonist this time around
Already almost 40% there!
Went with a $142 set with a shirt, feel pretty good about that. Would love those figures as well but too rich for my blood.
Also some new images/gifs (not sure if this will work, may have to edit after):
Okay, had to optimize the gifs (resulting in resizing in one) but there ya go.
