@DrRyanSkelton Suikoden II actually has great visuals and a cool setting. You begin the game as just a helpless nobody fleeing from the war, but slowly as you get dragged into it by the circumstances and you start helping those around you, people join your party and eventually you build your own army. You can recruit over 100 unique characters and take most of them in your party, there's strategy army battles, etc.
The problem with this game is that the protagonist Riou really is the most passive faggot protagonist I've ever seen in a game. He is supposed to be this incredible military commander and hero of the people, uniting and leading everyone with his strength and charisma, but he is literally just a quiet guy pushed into doing everything, you are always following someone else's plan, at no point Riou shows any initiative about anything. But even more annoying than that, he just forgives and forgets every injustice done to him, you have to see your character beaten, betrayed, robbed and walked all over by other characters and you just go along with it, there are characters that even comment on how gentle you are. To get the best ending of the game, in the final duel you have to only defend and let the final enemy beat you until he gets tired, and that actually pretty much sums up Riou's personality.
tl;dr little bitch protagonist, don't play this
