I TRULY hope you guys will love this story like I do! it's been so long since I've had to narrate a game I actually know how to play, hahaha, I am the most awkward. Thanks for giving this a shot! xo
Well, this is gonna be all new to me! I wasn't following you when you did suikoden 2, and I've never played either. Just heard the name on and off for years. I hope I won't get too lost with all the comparisons and stuff.
I like how Lucah's saying things like "okay, the graphics are kinda bad," and "give this game a chance, even if it looks a little clunky." And I'm sitting here thinking "Oh mah god, floor refections!? That's so cool! They got fountains? That's AWESOME. These graphics rock!" I'm looking forward to catching up on this one and maybe watching 2 afterwards. :)
THE GOLDEN AGE OF LUCAHJIN. Anyway, serious message for ocne. Suikoden 2 is what introduced me to your channel, it blew me away as both a game and story. Only possible thanks to your knowledge and commentary of the game. Made me fall in love with both your commentary, and the game itself. I know NOTHING about Suikoden, but if it's anything NEAR as good as Suikoden 2, I'll take it gladly. This is gonna be one series I'll watch the second it comes out. Keep on being you, ya dork.
I absolutely love the watercolor portraits in this game. They give the game so much character. They show the game's age, but I think that that it also shows the charm of the game.
Yaaassss!! THE SIGHT , THE SOUNDS! The memories are flooding back to me!!!!!!!! I'm so excited to watch the rest. It's been long enough that I still have impressions when we meet characters, but I don't remember every little thing.
OH MY GOD! How many years have I been waiting for this!? I just got invited to interview at Cambridge University and this is still the best news I've had all week!
I screeeeeaaamed when I saw this! I've been waiting for this LP ever since the finale of Suikoden II (Which is the only LP i've ever watched twice). I'm so happy to see that you're finally doing it!
I seriously almost started to cry when I saw this pop up. I love you so much, you playing Suikoden II was such a joy and I've loved those games ever since. Thank you so much for existing, lucah ;w;
I am so thrilled that she’s going this game. I live for her blind plays, but you can tell she just loves this game and it makes it that more special to watch.
RIP Yoshitaka Murayama, programmer, director, and creator of Suikoden Born 1969 and passed away on the 6th of February, 2024. I'm planning to buy the spiritual successor, Eiyuden Chronicle once it releases on April and the Suikoden remasters later down the line. This channel and the LPs featured here were an anchor in my life, and I'm so looking forward to experiencing those journeys myself for the first time. Huge thanks to Murayama and Lucahjin.
I remember when I first played Suikoden I two years ago, I had just finished watching Avatar the Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra for the first time (I believe Korra had ended a few months before). So with that in mind, I named my character "Tenzin", since I really liked Tenzin in Korra, and I suppose Tenzin is part of the religious name of the current Dalai Lama (which may have been where the name in Korra came from), so I figured it would be a nice name for someone who rises to become a leader and a unifier in this game.
Also; I'm so glad you're playing games that -you- want to play. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing you play other things, but whenever it's a game you feel so strongly and passionate about (this, Suikoden 2, etc), it's really exciting! It holds a special place in your heart, and there's just something extra there, in the commentary, and you can just.. tell in your voice. I've been looking forward to this since your Suikoden 2 LP, like many of us have, as well!
I saw you tweeting about this earlier. Knowing I'd have something great to watch after a crappy day helped immensely. I mean, one of my all-time favorite games plus Lucahjin. Can't get much better.
If only Konami still cared about Suikoden, maybe Suikoden 1 could one day get the much more polished English localization it deserves (2's script could've used a little more polish too, but it's way more coherent, on the whole). Suikoden is such a dope game, and the core story is really good, but man, at times it definitely feels like Konami gave some poor intern like a week to translate the whole thing into English.
Colt Gustafson and they are good!! yesterday I won 100 dollars in a Konami machine at a local casino (I'm probably one of a handful of guys that knows Konami made it)
Oh my god, I’ve been waiting for this for YEARS! I’ve rewatched your Suikoden II LP at least 8 times because it’s just so good. Combined with your blind Ace Attorney LP, this is probably my favorite schedule ever.
OH BOY! I didn't watch your suidoken II lp specifically because it didn't feel right to follow it before you did the first. Awesome! Looking forward to playing along with you for the first time.
I loved your play through of Suikoden 2, which inspired me to try it ! It is now one of my fav RPG's of all time :) I'm so incredibly excited for you to do this one. I held off watching other youtubers play this for so long as I just love your commentary and play style ! Thanks for being so awesome Lucah
Man, I was BORN in 1995, so it's really awesome to have some insight into a game I'd probably never have the sense to give a try! So cool how you said "I skipped a lot of university classes to play this, I loved RPGs" seeing as I had an identical experience with Persona 5. RPGs are just as great 22 years later, eh?
HOLY SHIT GURL, I was just rewatching Suikoden 2 as I never finished your playthrough of it before and now you pull this off! Totally awesome! Straight outta orders, because I was gettin worried over what to watch once I finally close off Suiko2 from my backburner.
What I remember hearing is that this game was a practice run for the guy in Japan who wanted to make 2 but knew he needed experience first, so he made this one to learn from and make 2 as good as he could.
I played this one first so its still my favourite of the series though 2 is an improvement in every way. Just watching the beginning makes me feel emotional. Im 40 now and im nearly crying and nothing has happened yet.
Thanks for finally LP'ing this game. I played this game when I was ten. Had barely started my English lessons in school. Interested to see how much I actually remember of this game. I remember certain events and this first town especially, but I might be mixing up some memories with Wild Arms.
My story with Suikoden is...strange to say the least. My first exposure of all things came from a Newgrounds flash series called "Sprite Survivor". You can probably deduce the concept, but several characters from this universe star in that series and the animator of the series, Hell-Fire (not to be confused with HellFireComms), recommended everyone to sample it if they hadn't already. ...Sadly this was back in 2006-2007, so I didn't have a PS1 memory card yet/nor knew about much of the PS1 library outside the usual suspects FF7 and MGS. After high school we had a swanky local game store pop up with everything you could imagine and one fateful day Suikoden I and II came in, I recognized the names due to Newgrounds, and he got me a joint deal, both games for 100 bucks. ...which fun fact the next time II came in, bugger was 150 dollars by itself. Was going to start with II because so many people held high regard and if not for the data transfer prompt at the start I'd possibly have skipped this and I'm glad I didn't. ...Although perhaps it would have been better this way, instead of playing I, loving it and hating II, maybe I would have enjoyed II and been blown away by I. My hatred of Jowy wouldn't have changed either way...not in a million years, all of my hate.
Oh man, Lucah is busting out all the good games this season. This is also one of my all-time favorites that I played back in the day. One that I did my own sorry-ass LP of for my own dinky-ass channel, but Lucah's commentary will definitely be 100x better than mine!
Oh, and speaking of 100% items, I can certainly help you in that department. For this early part in the game, for example, the Bon Bons on the world map drop antiques unique to them (not worth it, IMO).
Thanks to your Suikoden 2 Lp Lucah, I played both Suikoden 1 and 4(and Tactics if that means much). I beat 4, but I only got half way through 1 before my save was corrupted(was playing on a ps1 emulator). Both are pretty fun(although, enjoyment of 4 may vary for some. I had fun at least)!
You spoil us rotten Lucha and we love you for it I'm so excited for this and Sukodien became one of my favorite game series because if you, please let me fan girl for a minute, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
I am so excited for this! I played Suikoden 1 some months ago and loved it dearly. And now you're LPing it and this is going to be a wonderful journey!
(nerd voice) UMM technically his name should be McDohl since that's what his name defaults to in Suikoden II if you import the save file (sniff) (adjust glasses) But seriously I'm so happy to see you playing both of my favorite series at the same time
This is giving me a major nostalgia trip for all the RPGs I played and still play from the SNES/PS1 era, which was the best time for RPGs in my opinion
Holy shit, I’m so excited! Your Suikoden 2 LP was what introduced me to the series. The second one is one of the best RPGs ever made. Super happy you’re finally doing this, Lucah.
I was extremely pleased to see this video! Suikoden I is a great RPG. Even if technically the sequel has improved on virtually everything, this one still holds on in its own right, and even if the inventory management is very dated, it introduces a lot of what made the success (at least in my heart) of the following game. I really hope a lot of people will watch this LP, because it's a very good game with a thought-out plot containing a few surprising twists we're having here... And it deserves the love. From a monetary standpoint, too, I certainly wish it to be financially viable. (Or at the very least, that Trials&Tribulations will compensate for it, as there seem to be only 7k views at the time of writing this). So, after all that, a big word of encouragement for a game that deserved a chance to appear on your Channel, Lucahjin! And remember : even if it doesn't become the most successful series, even if other games end up being watched much more, that doesn't reduce all the love you and your viewers have for it. So, I sincerely hope we'll get to watch you play the game to the end! (PS- the youtube description says Suikoden II, oddly enough.)
Thank you so very, very much for these LPs. I played these games as a kid and still consider them to be some of the best RPGs ever made. (Admittedly I'm not as familiar with newer titles.) But in any case I wanted to offer my sincere admiration for this here LP. In particular I greatly appreciate your full-voice acting as part of the experience. I'm blind, and while I can read the text via OCR this is a much more enjoyable means of watching the playthrough. Thanks again and I can't wait to investigate your other productions!!
Ohhhh Gremio's so pure! He's a great character! Ahhhhh Milich... Ahhhh Milich... Ohhhh right, that quest to get Runes early! So I was following a GameFAQs guide when playing this game, and that guide recommended that quest with the early Runes. I think I got the Fortune Rune, if I *did* succeed in doing that. Yeah, yeah, I know, I followed a GameFAQs guide. I was pretty interested in getting a good ending for my first playthrough :P
I’m so glad you’re doing this game now. Can’t believe I just started watching. I loved your suikoden 2 lp and it inspire me to go back and play the first game. Also I can’t believe it’s been 4 years since that lp
Dude I sat through all of your Suikoden 2 playthrough when that came out, it got me to try Suikoden 2 myself and it quickly became one of my favorite JRPGs. Looking forward to this playthrough!
I am really glad to see that you are starting to play Suikoden 1 now. I still remember your Suikoden 2 playthrough, being very charming and good, since you actually cared to play and enjoyed that game. It is a shame that Suikoden as a series is dropped now. It could have been amazing if they decided to go back to the roots and give it a chance again.
Yessssssss~~ I am so happy you're doing this game. You're the person who introduced me to this series, so as an RPG enthusiast thank you :D With the Suikoden 2 LP I quit halfway through because I wanted to save some of the story for myself, and will probably doing the same for this game too, sorry :( However, I loved what I saw in that LP, and I can't wait for more :D
oh my gosh!! The timing of this couldn't be better! the sequel was my favorite LP of yours and this is just the thing I need to keep me going while I get used to my new job. Soooooo excited for this! ♥
Wow, this AND my favorite Ace Attorney game together? This is amazing. Your Suikoden ll LP really got me into the series, and it is now one of my favorite games of all time.
Lucahjin I've been waiting for this day for so long. Oddly enough I completed this game yet again last month because of how good the series is can't wait for you to play this epic journey
I never comment on stuff but you ever click a video so fast you get whiplash then before even 5 seconds in get sad because you wish you could binge the entire series already? That's me right now, I'm so excited
Your first let’s play I ever watched was suikoden II, and I looked back at your old videos to see if you ever played I. So happy to finally be able to experience this game with you, Lucah. ^^
That moment you click on a lucahjin video and get surprised it's a lucahjin video because you also watch epic name bro and a german spy who do these old games more often XD
I've been so excited for this from the moment you alluded to a future let's play. I'm SO EXCITED to see you play through this game!!! (Also Suikoden 2 takes place 3 years after Suikoden 1)
I’ve been playing suikoden 2 and was watching your video while playing the game so I get character voices while playing I hope you make videos for suikoden 3,4, and 5. Your content is very engaging and entertaining
I'm so glad you are doing a lets play of Suikoden 1, I really enjoyed your Suikoden 2 one. I think I like this one slightly better than 2. Thank you again, you're awesome!
I TRULY hope you guys will love this story like I do! it's been so long since I've had to narrate a game I actually know how to play, hahaha, I am the most awkward. Thanks for giving this a shot! xo
i am super duper excited for this and i think i'll play along with ya been waiting for a chance to do it
God yes :D you're the reason I picked up the first game XD *and then the second...and then third...and the fourth....and if I can find it, the fifth.*
Well, this is gonna be all new to me! I wasn't following you when you did suikoden 2, and I've never played either. Just heard the name on and off for years. I hope I won't get too lost with all the comparisons and stuff.
I'M SO EXCCIIITTTTTEEDDDD
AAAAAAH I'm excited! I've been meaning to go back and watch the Suikoden II LP again :DD
I like how Lucah's saying things like "okay, the graphics are kinda bad," and "give this game a chance, even if it looks a little clunky." And I'm sitting here thinking "Oh mah god, floor refections!? That's so cool! They got fountains? That's AWESOME. These graphics rock!"
I'm looking forward to catching up on this one and maybe watching 2 afterwards. :)
Glad to see you ended up let’s playing a game you love! Can’t wait to watch this! :D
Hi
Ace Attorney AND Suikoden? I thought Christmas was next month
maybe...but my birthday is this month!
Yes seeing this pop up on my RUclips feed made me very happy.
Now all I can think of is “Almost Christmas means it wasn’t Christmas!”
What great timing. I just finished re-watching your Suikoden II Let's Play.
Same tho.
Freaky Hacker same

Suikoden and Phoenix Wright?
Is this heaven?
I can't express how much I wanted this!!!
It's Luchaven!
*insert heavenly angel sounds
This is the first game that legit made me cry. No joke. I won't spoil it for anyone but this game can tug on those heart strings real hard.
Cross Gamer this had to be the first game that i 100%’d strictly because of how hard this game tugged at mine.
I don't know if you would call getting the best ending getting 100% but I at least did that.
I have been waiting for this for years!
I absolutely love the watercolor portraits in this game. They give the game so much character. They show the game's age, but I think that that it also shows the charm of the game.

Nah, they're too busy with Metal Gear Zombies and Plinko
if only Konami still cared about ANY of their game IP. Now all they care about is slot and pachinko machines.
Colt Gustafson and they are good!! yesterday I won 100 dollars in a Konami machine at a local casino (I'm probably one of a handful of guys that knows Konami made it)
Suikoden plinko confirmed.
Plinkoden.
Oh my god, I’ve been waiting for this for YEARS! I’ve rewatched your Suikoden II LP at least 8 times because it’s just so good. Combined with your blind Ace Attorney LP, this is probably my favorite schedule ever.
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT FOR LIKE 5-ISH YEARS, OH L0RD.
I CAN FEEL IT CALLING IN THE AIR TONIGHT, 0H LORD.
I've had this in my watch later for OVER A YEAR. Time to finally sit down and watch it, I think I'll love it just as much as II
Suikoden was my favourite ever let's play. I'm super happy you're doing this, thanks Lucah 😊
I love this game soo much, one of the first JRPGs I ever played due to so few been available in the UK and have loved the series ever since.
Your voice acting is so good! Especially how deep you get with the dad
YAY. I loved your original Suikoden II letsplay! This and Pheonix Whright is gonna be great.
I've only played 3, 4 and 5... so it's nice to see where it all began.
OH MY GOD I've been waiting like 4 and a half years for this!! I remember watching the first series years ago during summer break... Time flies
I didn't play very many PS1 games outside the common ones so I had no idea these sort of mixed 2D/3D games existed. this will be a treat I'm sure.
OH BOY! I didn't watch your suidoken II lp specifically because it didn't feel right to follow it before you did the first. Awesome! Looking forward to playing along with you for the first time.
I loved your play through of Suikoden 2, which inspired me to try it ! It is now one of my fav RPG's of all time :) I'm so incredibly excited for you to do this one. I held off watching other youtubers play this for so long as I just love your commentary and play style ! Thanks for being so awesome Lucah
Finally, after you did Suikoden 2, I could never find any other Lp's that I really liked of Suikoden 1
14:48 Lucah: “100 bits! Now bitch- eh bits are the currency of this game” XD
Yeah, that made me laugh pretty hard lol
Interesting, so Suikoden shows the origin of Windy Oldbag :P
Never thought of that :)
No
Man, I was BORN in 1995, so it's really awesome to have some insight into a game I'd probably never have the sense to give a try!
So cool how you said "I skipped a lot of university classes to play this, I loved RPGs" seeing as I had an identical experience with Persona 5. RPGs are just as great 22 years later, eh?
You were so hilarious in your Suikoden 2 let’s play, especially during the last videos. I’m looking forward to this.
You do not know how happy I was when I saw this in my feed😍been waiting three years since Suikoden 2 holy crap so excited
HOLY SHIT GURL, I was just rewatching Suikoden 2 as I never finished your playthrough of it before and now you pull this off! Totally awesome! Straight outta orders, because I was gettin worried over what to watch once I finally close off Suiko2 from my backburner.
This is one of my favorite jrpg games ever
What I remember hearing is that this game was a practice run for the guy in Japan who wanted to make 2 but knew he needed experience first, so he made this one to learn from and make 2 as good as he could.
Wow. So much info. I really love there more serious, more instruction video series of yours. Glad to see you still doing them from time to time.
Yay. I absolutely loved your suikoden 2 lets play, got me into this series a bit. I'm so glad your playing the first now.
YEEES! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YEARS! THANK YOU LUCAH!
WHEN YOU'VE FULLY WATCHED THE SUIKODEN II LET'S PLAY ALMOST 3 TIMES AND YOU'RE SO HAPPY TO HAVE LUCAH PLAY ANOTHER SUIKODEN GAME
YES! I'm loving this, A retro game, Your voice acting, Just everything, I love this stuff.
Ohmygosh yeeesssssss!! I loved your suikoden 2 lp, the start music is already giving me mad nostalgia, so hype!!
AHHHH! I loved your suikoden 2 LP I’m so excited for this!!!!
OMG! Suikoden is my absolute favorite game series!
I've been waiting for this LP ever since Suikoden II ended!
I played this one first so its still my favourite of the series though 2 is an improvement in every way.
Just watching the beginning makes me feel emotional.
Im 40 now and im nearly crying and nothing has happened yet.
Oh my god Suikoden! I remember watching your Suikoden 2 playthough back when I was like 12/13 omg
Thanks for finally LP'ing this game. I played this game when I was ten. Had barely started my English lessons in school. Interested to see how much I actually remember of this game. I remember certain events and this first town especially, but I might be mixing up some memories with Wild Arms.

Love the Heck out of this Game. I'm so happy you're doing an LP
The amount of time I have waited for this moment brings me great joy!!!! Thank you Lucah!!!!!!!!
Oh man, Lucah is busting out all the good games this season. This is also one of my all-time favorites that I played back in the day. One that I did my own sorry-ass LP of for my own dinky-ass channel, but Lucah's commentary will definitely be 100x better than mine!

AAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! It’s happening!!! Been waiting so long for Lucah play another one of these!!!
You spoil us rotten Lucha and we love you for it I'm so excited for this and Sukodien became one of my favorite game series because if you, please let me fan girl for a minute, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
I started playing this on my own recently, and I keep recalling this amazing series 💜 so here I am rewatching it again 😄
I get all of the Samwise and Frodo vibes from Gremio and Tir... I know for certain then that many people must ship them.
YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS! THANKS AUNTIE LUCAH ❤️❤️
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Suikoden was how I found your channel! Excited to see the series returning!
I was WAITING for the Suikoden 1 Let's Play. I hope you can do the rest of the Suikoden series, and other similar games (like Breath of Fire)
THE HYPE CAME INSTANTLY
I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE PLAYING THIS GAME
That theme tune...followed you ever since your suikoden 2 playthrough and have been waiting for this!
I am so excited for this! I played Suikoden 1 some months ago and loved it dearly. And now you're LPing it and this is going to be a wonderful journey!
Yay I loved the Suikoden 2 lp, so I'm looking forward to this one as well!
(nerd voice) UMM technically his name should be McDohl since that's what his name defaults to in Suikoden II if you import the save file (sniff) (adjust glasses)
But seriously I'm so happy to see you playing both of my favorite series at the same time
But then his name would be McDohl McDohl.
This is giving me a major nostalgia trip for all the RPGs I played and still play from the SNES/PS1 era, which was the best time for RPGs in my opinion
Holy shit, I’m so excited! Your Suikoden 2 LP was what introduced me to the series. The second one is one of the best RPGs ever made.

Ohhhh Gremio's so pure! He's a great character!
Ahhhhh Milich... Ahhhh Milich...
Ohhhh right, that quest to get Runes early! So I was following a GameFAQs guide when playing this game, and that guide recommended that quest with the early Runes. I think I got the Fortune Rune, if I *did* succeed in doing that. Yeah, yeah, I know, I followed a GameFAQs guide. I was pretty interested in getting a good ending for my first playthrough :P
I’m so glad you’re doing this game now. Can’t believe I just started watching. I loved your suikoden 2 lp and it inspire me to go back and play the first game. Also I can’t believe it’s been 4 years since that lp
Dude I sat through all of your Suikoden 2 playthrough when that came out, it got me to try Suikoden 2 myself and it quickly became one of my favorite JRPGs.
Looking forward to this playthrough!
I am really glad to see that you are starting to play Suikoden 1 now. I still remember your Suikoden 2 playthrough, being very charming and good, since you actually cared to play and enjoyed that game.
It is a shame that Suikoden as a series is dropped now. It could have been amazing if they decided to go back to the roots and give it a chance again.
Seeing you play Suikoden II was terrific. You did a great job narrating the game, and I can't wait to watch this play through!
I first played this game when it came out in the UK in April 1997.
Yessssssss~~ I am so happy you're doing this game. You're the person who introduced me to this series, so as an RPG enthusiast thank you :D With the Suikoden 2 LP I quit halfway through because I wanted to save some of the story for myself, and will probably doing the same for this game too, sorry :( However, I loved what I saw in that LP, and I can't wait for more :D
Yes! Yes! Yes! Thank you Lucah! Suikoden 2 is my favorite series youve done, im so so so excited for this!!
This was a trip down memory lane. Thanks for playing this.
oh my gosh!!
The timing of this couldn't be better!
the sequel was my favorite LP of yours and this is just the thing I need to keep me going while I get used to my new job. Soooooo excited for this! ♥
Wow, this AND my favorite Ace Attorney game together? This is amazing. Your Suikoden ll LP really got me into the series, and it is now one of my favorite games of all time.
Lucahjin I've been waiting for this day for so long. Oddly enough I completed this game yet again last month because of how good the series is can't wait for you to play this epic journey
I never comment on stuff but you ever click a video so fast you get whiplash then before even 5 seconds in get sad because you wish you could binge the entire series already?
That's me right now, I'm so excited
Thank you so much! Suikoden I and II, along with Earthbound and Final Fantasy VI are my favorite games of all time.
I am so excited, I've watched your suikoden 2 play through at least 5 times. Thank you so much for doing this one!
Your first let’s play I ever watched was suikoden II, and I looked back at your old videos to see if you ever played I. So happy to finally be able to experience this game with you, Lucah. ^^
That moment you click on a lucahjin video and get surprised it's a lucahjin video because you also watch epic name bro and a german spy who do these old games more often XD
I've been so excited for this from the moment you alluded to a future let's play. I'm SO EXCITED to see you play through this game!!! (Also Suikoden 2 takes place 3 years after Suikoden 1)
I’ve been playing suikoden 2 and was watching your video while playing the game so I get character voices while playing I hope you make videos for suikoden 3,4, and 5. Your content is very engaging and entertaining
Oh my GOD! I loved your Suikoden 2 series so much and I'm so glad that you're doing Suikoden 1 after years of waiting haha!
IT'S BEEN SO MANY YEARS!
I'm so glad you are doing a lets play of Suikoden 1, I really enjoyed your Suikoden 2 one. I think I like this one slightly better than 2. Thank you again, you're awesome!
HOLY FUUUUUUCK. FINALLY. I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR YEARS. THANK LUCA!
Holy Kittens I have wanted this for so long. Thank you kindly!
