This was devastating news to wake up to yesterday. Unfortunately not many people are talking about it, so thank you for giving the man his dues. Let's honor him by playing that suikoden 1-2 remake collection and of course eiyuuden chronicle. Can't believe I will have the honor to be in the same credits roll as Murayama sensei.
@gamebreak6395 Happy to hear that. You're in there with me, right? We can both be part of history when Eiyuuden gets universally praised as a legendary game, and we can be a part of that! That goes to all my fellow backers who paid for that privilege as well.
My brother GameBreak, I absoultely loved this tribute to the master Murayama. Murayama..Thank you for everything..May you rest in peace! Your legacy will continue to shine through and touch so many hearts! Suikoden was apart of my childhood and upbringing and Eiyuden Chronicle will continue to do the same and inspire so many. I owe so much of my channel to Suikoden and Eiyuden. Thank you for your coverage of this game, continue to be great! Lets stick together! Rest easy, may we see you in the stars of Destiny Murayama..
If Eiyuden is any kind of success, and the developers like what they are doing I see Eiyuden going forward to a second game. At least that’s my heartfelt wish.
@@gamebreak6395 I concur! Although, to be fair, I would've LOVED for Murayama to at least get to also create the 2nd one. As we know, Suikoden 1 was intentionally made as a "less than" version of Suikoden 2 since the team wasn't yet ready for it. And even though they raised a ton of money for Eiyuden, a part of me wonders if they also left things out of this one and were planning for Eiyuden 2 to be "the big one" once they made a ton of money from sales. 4 and a half million or whatever they made is nothing to sneeze at, but they could've possibly had ideas for a 10 mill or 20 mill budget game- More in depth war battles, deeper town building mode, who knows. Either way, Suikoden 5 being as amazing as it is gives me great hope that the Suikoden framwork is so great that other talented writers and developers can come in and make great JRPG's with Murayama's framework.
Honestly i’m surprised his death isn’t acknowledged by more people in the industry because he impacted a lot of creatives. Rest In Peace to a legend, My favorite writer and world builder. Condolences to his family and loved ones.
I'm saddened by this, but I celebrate him rather than wallow in sorrow. The stories he made are a significant part of my childhood and brought me a love for JRPGs. Can't wait to play his final story. RIP
Kind of weird how his death made me feel. A lot of 'celebrities' and such die and I feel nothing even if I knew their works - I don't know them personally. Murayama hit differently. I still think of Suikoden all the time and listen to the music and eagerly awaited the remaster of Suikoden 1 & 2 as well as Eiyuden. I think the humanity and emotion of his work stuck with me and may have shaped my life more than I know it. God bless him and may we still enjoy his works for years to come.
I was so upset reading that kickstarter update...Really Truly, I Love Murayama's work more than any other--it has impacted my life more than I care to admit... I'm so sad that this happened to him, so close to his dream's release... It's hard to put into words, how much this amazing man will be missed by me, and countless others... Murayama, I never got to meet you---I wish I had... My heart goes out to his family and all Stars of Destiny out there---(us) You will be Sorely Missed--but Never Forgotten...Thank you for helping myself and so many others with your amazing rollercoaster of emotions driven game, that touched my heart and soul, and helped me through some really bad times in my life...They mean so much to me---YOU, mean so much to me... If I could give you 20 years of my life, and bring you back, I would... RIP Murayama.
I believe he felt the sense of urgency to share his final work with us before he closed his eyes. Perhaps telling his nearest and dearest like Kawano san " this is it" from the outset. Every aspect of the campaign singing on the chorus, voting on characters and dlc, our name in the credits, I take them as his way of saying we've been apart of his journey as he's been apart of ours. I'm glad the kickstarter was so successful, an outpouring of passion and support. To share in the vision of one of the world's greatest writers, a transcendent honor🤝
yes.. i am so sad that he died. now he is in heaven with my dad... i hope that he will become a character in the eiyuden game so we can "meet" him.. rest in peace murayama!
This sucks 😢… Murayama made a big part of my childhood awesome with the Suikoden series. We love you and wish his family and friends all the best in this painful los❤
Rest in peace. I love Suikoden 1 and 2 as someone who only played them within the past 4 years, and I know Eiyuden is going to be amazing. I can’t wait. Thank you Murayama
He knew that death is coming for him so he decided to make the best JRPG game before passing away as a legacy.. and he will always be remembered, Rest in peace Tenkai Star.
Crushed and scared for the future of both series, i am just happy i was born around the right time to play the masterpieces as a child and now an adult for the new game and i suggested this but doubt people would see but i hope they put him in this game as a recuitable character or a DLC
I thank Murayama for the amazing childhood he gave us and wonderful stories he told. I will always cherish the stories he made whenever I played his games. Rest in peace.
My heart goes out to his family, all of us fans, and the coworkers/friends that respected him so much. He helped create many amazing and life-long memeories. As well as being an inspiration for other developers with making jrpgs. He was taken from this world too soon, but the impression he left will last forever.
Suikoden started my love of JRPGs, I have so much to thank Murayama for. It’s so heartbreaking he’s gone and will never see the game. May his legacy live on in all the games he worked on. Rest easy Murayama
Rest in Peace Murayama. Same with you Game Break, it give's me Light and Joy playing the game. If next life give me, i suggest going there will be my best.
This news break my heart in more ways than I can describe with words, Eiyuden now being his parting gift and the beginning of hopefully a new series in his name. May he rest in peace and may his friends and family find solace in this dark times, thank you Muramaya!
I got the email at 2am as i was going to sleep. That wasn't a option after I read it. Suikoden was a major part of my childhood. So this one hit hard, much more so than I expected. He's among the 108 stars in the sky now.
'Reminiscence' hits harder than ever from now on. He'll be missed, but never forgotten. "Even at his most powerless, man's existence is never without meaning."
I have never been so affected by the passing of an individual I never met. The Suikoden stories were so beautiful. And there was still so much untold in that universe that I wish he came back to someday. It’s been hard to play other games since the kickstarter knowing that a Suikoden like gem was around the corner. I pray that his team continues in with out him in his honor.
Bittersweet is the best way to put it. I'm only glad that he could see how much we loved and supported the idea of this project. I'm so saddened he'll not get to see the game in our hands.
So sad. He was so close to seeing his dream fully realised. I'm sad he's gone, but grateful for his work and legacy. He'll live on for generations through his art and the loving fans keeping it alive.
Omg I cannot believe it! Why did I find this out now?😢 He will always be remembered through his masterpieces Suikoden 1, 2, and this Eiyuden Chronicle series. He has completed his 108 stars. The main hero shall now rest. He will now begin the journey of his soul.😢
;~( I didn't even know much about the man and the games. But this is touching. I just very recently bought the Rising game .... and started playing it, today. I have the Suikoden classics on Playstation 1 ... just like when Grandia fell apart, this is painful. Death is unfair and cruel.
I'm glad at least he was able to make one last piece of art, hopefully his magnum opus. A game where he could do what he thought best without risk of corporate interference.
Right there with you. It feels like part of me was lost in a way that I've only felt from people I know very personally passing. But at the same time that void is filled a bit by the amazing things that he created and left for us. Hopefully Eiyuden is a huge success and his legacy only grows!
Ahh man. I can't believe this. I just caught your video then I checked the feeds I didn't find out til today. I have it all pre-ordered and I intend to get the re-releases of Suikoden too. Thank you for the tribute video. Sheesh what a blow.
Thank you for this great video. We are of similar age and have similar feelings for Suikoden. I'm glad impressions for the demo are positive. I m waiting for yours as well
Its so depressing and Sad. Buts it like real Life copy one of his Games...short before the Goal ..you lost on beloved one...Gremio...Nanami...and in RL Murayama... I hope its not the Deathblow to.the Eiyuden chronicle Franchise and they will go on even stronger without their Mastermind. Thank you Murayama..
Suikoden 1 and 2 are my two favorite games of all time and I love the others as well and I watched your video and I felt at peace with everything you said like it was coming from my heart as well I can not wait for Eiyuden and I hope they continue the Franchise with Murayama's vision... he made my teens livable thank you so much Murayama san
It's a beautiful vidéo réaction for a Heroes, a tenkai star IS gone but still here in our soul forever and will be with us for the release of his last baby ''eiyuden chronicles''.
Somehow I knew you'd make this video. But we must thank you too, for uniting together the fans of his work and bringing the contents with the affection and respect his work deserves.
The thing is, when people keep saying eiyuden could be a continuation series for suikoden, I keep thinking that is kinda hard to keep, especially with the original team since most of them already close at that retirement age. This is to hit the coffin nail harder. RIP.
We're waiting for your Hundred Heroes review. I'm currently 20 hours deep into it now. I'm a Suikoden 1-5 purest, and I love it. I'm playing it on the ps5 btw.
Great tribute. Reminiscence was the perfect track for this as it makes me think of my experiences and emotions I felt as a kid playing Suikoden. This is a bittersweet farewell. His passing will make playing through Eiyuden all the more special. Rest in peace Murayama, you will be missed, but never forgotten. Your legacy lives on forever.
I really hope his death isn't work related. I know they said ongoing illness, but I got a strong feeling through a lot of the kickstarter updates they were doing some crazy crunching. At his age and size, he probably couldn't do what he did in the late 90's. I really doubt they would say he worked himself to death if that's indeed what happened. Someone on Resetera said the Japanese press were reporting it was multiple organ failures, which COULD indicate it was relating to over stress/overworking himself past his limit. Regardless, this is very very tragic. I greatly respect him and the team. They are true artists.
Very unexpected. Didn't even know he was sick.sad he didn't get to see elyden Chronicle release. So,does this mean no sequel? Or can someone take over?
Hello there sir. Just checking in to see if everything is alright. I was looking forward to seeing your reaction to the beta version of Hundred Heroes that went out to some folks. Hope you are doing well! :)
I am doing good! Thanks for checking. I will be doing a review for Eiyuden when I finish it, but I won’t be doing a video for the beta. Thanks for the comment
@@gamebreak6395 Yeah not gonna lie I checked back in to see a compilation of update videos in one go. 11/12 ish days to go for backer release. I am so ready I am going to grind like crazy. I got my place ready for pure gaming madness.
when we talk about the chief star of heaven(tenkai star) we look at tir mcdohl riou i didnt play 3 lazlo Freyjadour but if there were a chief star above chief stars, its Murayama, he was OUR chief star of heaven, he gave us 2 of the most beloved games in rpg history, with great moving stories, and beloved characters still today tir and riou are the best ones, eiyuden chronicles is an amazing game, and i cant wait to hear you talk about it
Sorry i don't want to Spam, but i'm really worried about Cody now. Does anybody know why since two month he doesnt drop any content? Nothing about Unicorn overlord, Eiyuden or anything else. Its so strange. I really hope nothing bad happend.
Life is a long song, but the tune ends too soon for us all.
Thank you for giving me a wonderful childhood Murayama

Kind Words my Castlebro. We all are sad and every one you think of Murayama, will make it easier.
A legend is gone too soon.
Thank you, Murayama. Thank you very much!
I was so ready for an entire Eiyuden Chronicle series. I know that's what they would have done and I hope that's what they do still in his honor.
If Eiyuden is any kind of success, and the developers like what they are doing I see Eiyuden going forward to a second game. At least that’s my heartfelt wish.

goddamnit, you just had to put THAT theme in the background
when we talk about the chief star of heaven(tenkai star) we look at

riou
i didnt play 3
lazlo
Freyjadour
but if there were a chief star above chief stars, its Murayama, he was OUR chief star of heaven, he gave us 2 of the most beloved games in rpg history, with great moving stories, and beloved characters still today tir and riou are the best ones, eiyuden chronicles is an amazing game, and i cant wait to hear you talk about it
