KickStarter Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes - From Suikoden creators

[kyosuke]

I think I'm going to play it in pure Japanese mode if it's possible.
English dialogue looks stupid.

 

[Häyhä]

Glad I didn't back this, they've already shit the bed and the game isn't even out yet.

Because of a couple of poor character designs or a few blacks in the game?

I remember thinking back when I was fourteen playing Suikoden 2 that the one thing it needed alongside the amazing cast was a retarded black guy called "Wayve" to really kick it all off.

Anyway, if others take enjoyment from it that's great but I'd rather just play Suikoden 2 again instead of subjecting myself to low effort cringeworthy shit like that.

That is your prerogative of course. I agree that this particular character is pretty shit design-wise and even the name is stupid, however it is still one character out of a hundred.

I checked and there's one black in Suikoden 2 (none in Suikoden 1), Hauser, but to be honest I don't remember anything about his character or dialogue lines.

Games with black characters can still be good

Games with black characters can still be good

The only thing I can remember about her is that she ran into a situation to get herself killed when the silent guy had to step in and stop her. Her mother was an insufferable hypocrite.

 

[Yuber]

Don't mind black characters in games, Barret is one of my favorite game characters, I just hate "The Message" and that's the only reasons they made those characters.

 

[OysterSauce]

All the blacks shown so far are part of the primitive society living in the jungle. I'm okay with that.

[Damned Registrations]

It's flashy but it lacks the character of the combos in Suikoden 2 that involved characters doing things like breathing fire as a circus act, setting up a cannon, or otherwise referencing their background and relationships. This just seems like fairly generic attacking (which to be fair the original games did a lot of as well.) I'll be quite disappointed if they just used some generic combo generating system where characters do a particular thing when in combos regardless of who they're paired with.

 

[Häyhä]

Could have at least shown like ten different ones, what the hell's the point with a 9-second-video barely showing one?

 

[InD_ImaginE]

Who the heck these trailers with some bad music and bad voice over made for anyway like by the god

 

[Viata]

The voice over reminds me of those 80s movie trailers, man. More so for horror movies.

it's the same one they've shown since the kickstarter trailer too

 

[Rahdulan]

Aww, man.

Hello everyone,
It’s with a heavy heart and deep sadness we must inform you
that the scenario writer and head of Rabbit& Bear Studios,
Yoshitaka Murayama, has passed away on February 6th
due to complications with an ongoing illness.

Murayama first began this journey of the creation of
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes in 2020
through the support of his very loving fans on Kickstarter.
Throughout the three-plus-year-development of the game,
it was always the passion from his fans that continued to
drive his creative vision and motivate him to put his all into the project.

His hard work on Eiyuden Chronicle as scenario writer was finished
but as his co-workers and friends, it saddens us to know that
he won’t get to see the reactions from his fans.

However, even with those feelings we need to accept
the reality that he is no longer with us and continue to push
his dream forward by releasing Eiyuden Chronicle to the world.

We want to maintain his legacy and vision with this game and
know that he would have wanted the rich world he has created
with Eiyuden Chronicle to live on.

His family sincerely appreciates your prayers and support
but asks for privacy and that no flowers, mail, or other offerings be sent.

We will have more information on organizational changes to
Rabbit & Bear as well as changes to some of the Kickstarter rewards
in the near future.

For now, we appreciate your continued support.

Rabbit & Bear Studios,
Junko Kawano
JunichiMurakami
Osamu Komuta​

Damn

He is not that old too, he finished his degree in 1992, assuming that's 23 y.o., he should only be around 55 y.o

 

[REhorror]

Damn, RIP.

I hope the game turns out to be OK.

 

[Abu Antar]

R.I.P. and thank you for the Suikodens.

 

[Häyhä]

Oh man, what a fucking bummer for today. He was over-weight and didn't look to be in the best shape, but still, totally out of the blue and right before the release of his comeback game. It's going to be bittersweet and somewhat emotional now to play Eiyuden when it comes out.

Both google (if you search for his name) and this site (https://weibo.com/6282046678/NhT1zhYi8) give his birth date to be the year 1969.

Barret is a negrito, not a kneegrow.

I wouldn't mind if every black character is like Barret, basically Mr. T, he's cool and funny.

Too bad the corpos and zoomers want their black characters like this, basically black nerds that aren't funny.

 

[Häyhä]

Farewell and thanks for all the memories.
