*"NEW" SUIKODEN* A spiritual successor to Suikoden named Eiyuden Chronicle has been announced. It's being developed by Suikoden veterans and the kickstarter is live and very successful (by now $3 million): www.kickstarter.com/projects/rabbitandbearstudios/eiyuden-chronicle-hundred-heroes/description
Wow, this video is a comprehensive guide to the 27 True Runes in the Suikoden Universe! I love how all 18 known True Runes are described in detail. The background music sets the perfect tone for this informative video. Great job, Mike Salbs! Keep up the good work! 👍
With most of the team apart, working on other projects, and so many years having passed since the last game, no way. I guess it just wasn't profitable enough.
I have given up that we will ever get a proper Suikoden sequel. Without the creators that gave the games 1,2,3 and 5 (I'm kinda mixed with the 4) their unique feel we will never get one.
@@haseo8244 Well I guess FF7 got a newmaker remake so anything is technically possible. Just not convinced unfortunately with Suikoden as Konami seem to have given up :(
right now the team behind Suikoden who gets kicked out from Konami joins themself and makes a new game titled Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes (basically Suikoden game but without its name and resource because Konami has the IP) they are gathering crowdfunding in Kickstarter.
Remake or continuation of legendary Suikoden II for me. The most detailed and most well-done rpg I ever played. Maybe it's actually the last phoenix that can lead Konami to rebirth...
@@RainingFlow19 The problem is that many people haven't played Suikoden 3 or 5 as they are so hard to get hard of especially in the UK and Europe, maybe he didn't pick up 4 and thats why he didn't know of any after 2. While 4 is decent it isn't a patch on 1+2 that actually have many of returning characters from 1. Well tactics unfortunately I've had it around 15 years and not got round to playing it oops lol
@@Beetlejuice2959 strange, suikoden 3 is the only one i played and i thought was the most successful one. i loved the game, and the intro song is just amazing.

Agree, just continue the story after the grassland war, it will be so good. It will be better if they can include the suikoden 2 hero in the game, so we can know how is he after the war.
I like how Konami just role reversal Luc and Sasarai's character in 2 of the games. in Suikoden 1 and 2, Luc's the good guy by helping the MC to win the war and in Suikoden 3 he's the main final boss. as for Sasarai, in Suikoden 2 he's the bad guy for joining Luca's army or was it Joey's army? and in Suikoden 3 he's the good guy trying to stop his big brother Luc by joining the MC's castle.
Ever since the release if suikoden 2 (which is my all time favorite rpg game.. no one can beat this game.) I've been a massive fan. I hope konami can release more suikoden games..

Yeah suikoden2 is my favorite. But I haven't played it in 20 years and don't know really if it was just cuz I was a kid and I'm remembering it through rose tinted glasses. It's the only game that made me tear up though. I really felt the story, it was amazing. Would love a new suikoden game. They did so many little things right. Not slow like final fantasy games where just starting a battle takes 10 seconds of animations.
"As long (good) human is exist, hope is never dies". We all should tell to next gen and teach our child about this precious. So konami(if they stand still) someday in future can continue the story
3:04 Rune of Change (update) Current Owner: Unknown Past Owner: Unknown Featured in: Suikoden 2 (Sajah secret dungeon) Power: Alternate/Reset timeline, kinda like gate to parallel universes
I think, the Leader of Sindar will be the strongest person in Suikoden universe and possibly the final boss (or hidden boss) of the game series (if it still on going) Because he's traveling from timeline to timeline, from one era to others
@@bennysusanto5524 Maybe the game came out very late and nowadys it´s hard to get and also very expensive and it´s also the only title that is not available digital on PSN. It´s stuck on PS2. Many consider it either better or 2nd best after Suikoden II.
We still don't know the possessors of true Change & circle rune. Nor the secrets of the Sindars. Mysteries and past lives of Jeane, Yuber, Viki, Zerase, or Leknaat. This is an incomplete game and we've been at this petition for over a decade now, I demand a new release and continuation of Suikoden games in Ps4 or Ps5 to come! We have seen nothing on Ps3😢
Some things are best left a mystery anyway, as explaining them at this stage would likely just be underwhelming. Better to drop hints, but keep it mysterious.
My theory and im sure these rune will appeared if the game still continued : - Night rune : Zerase - Time rune : Viki - Dendro rune : ? - Holy rune : ?
I didn't know remember the Eightfold Rune, the Circle Rune or the Rune of Change, so that was interesting. Jeane should also have one, since she appears in every damn Suikoden game and appears unaged (not buying the "every woman in her family looks the same" bs). Also Viki's rune allows her to travel space AND time, which sounds a bit broken to me if it was just a normal rune. It must be a True one. It's too powerful, even if Viki can't really control it very well.
Must admit I always assumed that Viki had a true rune as no where else in the game is teleportation and especially when you add time to it, it makes sense. I assumed Jeane had a powerful rune but unsure if it was a true rune or not. Definately didn't buy it that every woman in her family looked the same, unless you want to put that down to dodgy writing lol
@@Beetlejuice2959 Jeane didnt has true runes, konami confirmed this but there is theory that she under influence of a true runes and some poeple say that she probably has been livin since the ancient armes kingdom or she is one the remaining sindar clan

Milady, at least we have got back mass effect, even if i wish they would continue the last story I am so happy it is back 😉 and there will be eiyjuden Chronicles wich is from the makers of suikoden, which looks awesome. So there is hope, don't cry never ever 😃
@@jannyegaxherd9376 Thank you for your kind words, sir. Yeah, I'm definitely grateful for Mass Effect Andromeda even if I wish upon the same thing, that they'd continue the last story. And honestly, it feels so horrible to see how the series ended Shepard in Mass Effect 3. I remember crying over it, haha. And yeah, I learned about Eiyuden Chronicles a few months back, and I couldn't be happier. I saw all their contents on Kickstarter and it looks very promising. Back them up a little and hope the production goes well and smoothly. Can't wait to be able to play it, hopefully they released it not only on consoles :)
@@G_Lady I believe they will continue with that name if people don't talk it down because it is not called directly "Suikoden". It is like with castlevania, the makers cannot call it castlevania anymore so they call it bloodstained. But in the end they continued for the love of the fans of those series. As far as I heared it will be released for console and also on pc, but don't know if there will be physical copies. And yepp milady, talking about Charakters, I am with you, there's some that are unique like Shephard and Peebee on mass effect or Luc and Nash on Suikoden. Or Seb on The Evil Within 2. Let us just expect nothing and enjoy the new games before reading or watching useless reviews. Wish you a nice Sunday.
Slight correction to the Rune of Punishment's past owners: husband/father of Rikie and Rakgi respectively; pirate Steele (Suikoden Tactics) and the unknown owner who brought it to Obel. It was clearly mentioned in Suikoden IV when the protagonist was asked to meet Rikie and Rakgi in the Obel Ruins.
The man at Obel ruins passed the rune to the Queen of Obel. Then The Queen of Obel passed the rune to Graham Cray. Then Graham to his son when he loses his arm, then the boy passed the rune to Rikie's husband. Then the husband passed the rune to Steele. Then Steele passed the rune to Brandeau, then Glen and finally Lazlo, that is the order.
ive always been interested in the remaining true runes. as well as the 3 runes that still havent been fully talked about (circle 8fold and change.) not only this but there has been one factor that ive always been interested in. all runes are born from the 27 true runes. with each passing suikoden game there has been several new runes added in. there are also runes that are character Unique (only 1 character thru the series has them, im not going thru all of them.) but then in the shops they have many additional runes. lots of status changing runes like boost, killer, magic, multi strike, crazed, wall, knight, as well as the prosperity and fortune, etc etc etc. there are also runes that are "weapon" unique. like runes that 1h swords can use, runes that axe users can use. runes that bow users can use. boomerang. etc etc. then other runes still that are more inserted just for the specific game play. like sound, window, and holy for run speed. i havent even mentioned the battle "animal" runes like boar and falcon and viper that are unique attacks. none the less. with all these weird runes, what are their true runes? we still have 9 unaccounted Trues so there are still many things that can be created. i even wonder what the ressurection rune came from. some people think its the night rune or moon rune or possibly even the soul eater since its the "life and death" rune (the darkness rune came from it obviously.) for sure tho one thing i didnt like is how they handled the pre suikoden 1 games.....all these runes that are in suikoden 4 and 5 that are pre time line dont exist in suikoden 1. obviously cuz they improved as they created them in their order but chronologically its still annoying. suikoden 1 and 2 are definately in need of a remake just on this reason alone.
WHAT IF VIKI HOLDS A TRUE RUNE ANDHUNTED BY SOME PEOPLE WHO CONSTANTLY AFTER HER THROUGH TIME SO SHE'S FORCED TO FLEE BY TRANSPORTING TO ANY SUIKODEN GAME SO SHE COULD PROTECTION FROM THOSE PURSUING HER AND SHE FLEE AGAIN WHEN HER PURSUERS ARE NEARING HER
Viki is from Ancient Sindar(from her cloth?) , so probably she is also has connection to Rune of Change (Maybe). Also Viki timeline in game (personal opinion)= Suikoden 5 (She does not recognize lolerai if she from 1 or 2 she will know lolerai, her word when the first time meet "is that place still around" because new armes invade falena maybe she come from 6 or more) >4 (she know Jeane but Jeane seem not recognize her) > 1 > 2 > 3(she know Apple). BTW suikoden game timeline = 4>5>1>2>3.
I always wondered what would happen if all 27 true runes were brought together. I imagine it could bring ultimate destruction to the world if they all clashed and that would be fun to experience.
@@silentecho92ableimagine every true rune bearer unite to final battle againts 27 true rune or true antagonist .. Teamed : 1 Tir 2 Sierra 3 Chris 4 Lazlo 5 Zerase 6 Sasarai It will be my ultimate team.
@@manoharalisa5829 neclord and sierra appears only in suikoden 1 and 2. The time length is about 10 years only. Who knows they long lives until 100 years old. Jeanne and Viki appears in every suikoden series. The time length from suikoden 4 (the oldest) to suikoden 3 is more than 100 years. 😁🤣
That is mistranslation name the true name is Godspeed rune. Holy rune is similar to resurrection rune and holy rune is not confirmed by game maker but im sure they add holy rune if the game still continued...
So, in order for Riou to get true rune and became immortal, he had to kill Jowy? Riou won't be alive the next time we see him. He prefer to travel the world with his families instead.
It's a shame we'll never get resolution to the Rune Saga of Suikoden. Even if we do get any new games in the future, however unlikely, Konami has all but abandoned that timeline for some inexplicable reason in exchange for the multiverse of sub par spin offs. RIP Suikoden.
As hyped as I am for Eiyuden Chronicle, I wish they could just finish out this universe. There are runes we know about and haven’t seen and runes we don’t know at all. There’s an entire continent we know about but have no idea what’s going on over there. Part of my wishes that Sony buys Konami and rabbit and bear so they can call it suikoden 6 the eiyuden chronicle.
i believe Rune of Punishment is among the strongest true runes.. together with Sun Rune, Dragon Rune, Rune of Change, Night Rune, (Complete) Gate Rune (if fused again together both parts..), Circle Rune, Life and Death, Rune of Beginning (also if complete, if its separate parts back fused again..) and Sovereign (as it has the power to cancel some other kinds of powers of\from other runes..).. not that the others aren't strong, specially True Fire, Beast, Eightfold, Moon etc.. but those others mentioned before (these) are, or must be, the shit.
Freedom, again such an amazing theme glad to hear it again. ❤️ Ahhh the tragic stories of the true runes such a great epic concept. soul eater sword and shield punishment night rune gate rune all epic and you forget didn't the eight fold rune allow Yuber to become a giant bone dragon in green hill was it? In Suikoden 1? Yuber n Pesmerga were a story which I wanted to be mainlined as well as Clive's story as well. You left out the true runes make theirv owners sort of immortal immune to aging over time.
I wish Suikoden series would be continued. Such a great concept and world. Suikoden 3 and 4 are on the weak side, but the others especially 2 and 5 are brilliant.
3 Had the potential to be great, but splitting the story between the three characters the way they did made it much harder to get invested and immersed in any one of them, and really hurt the game overall IMO. Should've just had you pick 1 of them at the start and stay with them.
@@planescaped Agreed. It would have given the game more replay value by incentivizing you to play the other character's routes to get more of the story, and effectively reduced the overwhelming amount of back tracking.
@@silentecho92able Agreed. The way it was done in Suikoden 3 included so much backtracking because you played through the same events with different characters.
@@silentecho92able Multiple characters with intertwined stories wasn't a new thing when Suikoden 3 did it as you pointed out. Seiken Densetsu 3 had done it on the SNES/Super Famicom and one of the best early implementations was Rudra no Hihou also on the SNES/Super Famicom. With all the love and attention being given to RPGs from the 90s I'm surprised Square-Enix hasn't brought Rudra to America in an official capacity. They just gave Live A Live a Western release and it has some of the multiple character aspects. Each character's story is separate in Live A Live until they all meet up, unlike Suikoden 3, Rudra, Seiken Densetsu 3 where all the stories are intertwined and you can see the same events, but from different characters' perspectives.
my old game, finish S1, S2, S3 and S4, never finish S5, my ps2 in bad condition. and always wonder 27 runes other than game mention. thanks to make this explanation, even 9 other rune still unknow. always like suikoden story, i wonder no anime for suikoden story.
@@dimu9930only Razro has opened forgiveness power of the rune, so he now become permanent user of Punishment rune until the final battle when all 27 true rune out from bearer hands.
If you play through to the end of Suikoden 3, you can play as Yuber and can use his Eight-Devil rune. Not sure why the author of this video said it was not featured...
Rouge Dragon yes. a bonus feature in suikoden 3. if you completed the 104 stars just before the final battle, the extra 4 stars will be revealed and their point of view will be the bonus chapter, one of which is yuber. :)
I think Clive's gun is one of the True Rune because Elza said that it had a soul and chose its wielder. Maybe a True Rune that mirrors Protection and Assasination. My theory, it is True Skill Rune because to be an assassin, one has so many skills
Hopefully a lot of people purchase the Remake of Suikoden 1 & 2; maybe it'll give Konami a kick in the @ss to make Suikoden 6. We have 18 out of 27 discovered so far; still 9 more to go and most likely 2 games more worth of content. Hopefully we get some of our beloved characters back like Viktor, Flik, and McDohl. Gremio would be a nice addition as well; same as Riou, Jowy, and Nanami. It'd be cool to see the Scarlet Moon King make a reappearance as we have no idea what happened to him after the first game.
Suikoden 1&2 hd remaster I so going to get I wish 3 4 5 would also have a remaster. I their was a suikoden 6 I would love to go to gian or arms they are two places we have not gone to
Actually there's one theory that stated that Hikusaak is a hero himself in the like of Tir/Riou. He rise up againts an empire, with 108 warriors, gain a true rune (circle rue), won, and created a new empire (Harmonia). But then the curse of the rune came and he became what we know now.
suikoden discontinued its unforgettable legacies, while overrated games such as Ys, deception, disgaea, remasters of crash crazycoot the upcoming spyro the innocent dragon and medievil and tales games w/c was decent too still on the go...why it seems that this masterpiece can’t get enough attention it needs for us fans??? i guess a petition i think is worthy of enough trouble...what can you say guys???
We did have one, and it took god awfully long to get them to release 2 on the psn... Though I'd love them to even release the japan exclusives into the western markets..
All information shown in the video was taken from Suikosource website. How I wish there will be a Suikoden Anime to watch instead of reading duplicated contents from a video
Don't konami understand all,we want is a suikoden 6. That takes place after the events in 2 or 3. Then include Victor and flikka. Not older and use old graphics. We don't want new grafix. Make,the game ps1 grafix. And it woukd, e way better then part 4
9:38 Viktor passed it to Edge for safe keeping?! lol By Viktor and Sword's personality and temperance. It's obviously discarded or throw it just like the past Suikoden 2 storyline.
Interesting video, felt if it had come around a time Final Fantasy wasn't as big we would have got more Or maybe just general Konami...... Hopefully Eiyuden Chronicle smashes it
rune of beginning is the most powerful of all... but destined to fight each other bearer's first.. but riou and jowy manage to stop the curse... suikoden 2 the best part ever.. with the suikoden 1 mcdhol extra event.. imagine in the last part bright shield + black sword + soul eater together in one team..
Its originally called the soul eater dunno where you got the run of life at?? The two most dangerous true tunes for the living is the rune of punishment where it kills the host & then the soul eater where it kills people & devours their souls that are involved with the runes bearer... But lazlo didnt turn to dust weird that he didn't but he never woke up so I say he dead...

Because he's traveling from timeline to timeline, from one era to others
And maybe Rune of Change always featured in every series but hidden like in Suikoden 2

Ppl should start a petition to get Sukioden back to be remade and also making a 6. Maybe They don't understand how much ppl want this game back.
The thing is, Suikoden series wasnt bestseller series, like Final fantasy for example, that's why we didnt get more games, unfortunately.

And yeah, I learned about Eiyuden Chronicles a few months back, and I couldn't be happier. I saw all their contents on Kickstarter and it looks very promising. Back them up a little and hope the production goes well and smoothly. Can't wait to be able to play it, hopefully they released it not only on consoles :)
@@G_Lady I believe they will continue with that name if people don't talk it down because it is not called directly "Suikoden". It is like with castlevania, the makers cannot call it castlevania anymore so they call it bloodstained. But in the end they continued for the love of the fans of those series. As far as I heared it will be released for console and also on pc, but don't know if there will be physical copies.
And yepp milady, talking about Charakters, I am with you, there's some that are unique like Shephard and Peebee on mass effect or Luc and Nash on Suikoden. Or Seb on The Evil Within 2.
Let us just expect nothing and enjoy the new games before reading or watching useless reviews. Wish you a nice Sunday.
Slight correction to the Rune of Punishment's past owners: husband/father of Rikie and Rakgi respectively; pirate Steele (Suikoden Tactics) and the unknown owner who brought it to Obel.
It was clearly mentioned in Suikoden IV when the protagonist was asked to meet Rikie and Rakgi in the Obel Ruins.
The man at Obel ruins passed the rune to the Queen of Obel. Then The Queen of Obel passed the rune to Graham Cray.
Then Graham to his son when he loses his arm, then the boy passed the rune to Rikie's husband.
Then the husband passed the rune to Steele.
Then Steele passed the rune to Brandeau, then Glen and finally Lazlo, that is the order.
@@SeventhheavenDKrune of punishment bearer always change until it find the final bearer Razro.
You.. You... Bring me back to suikodenn 😢😢
I wanna play it backk
Nostalgic. They should really continue this story.
God that ost, so nostalgic, feels like I'm back to my high school days, searching the net for any scrap of suikoden with my sister.
I love that speed rune because I love making my characters run ^^
I miss the suiko source forums. no one has forgotten this game! :)
Oh wow, haven't thought about suikosource in a long time...
Wonderful content! Really miss the series T.T
Back here due to the remaster announcement! Great time to be a JRPG fan with the 1and2 remaster coming and Eiyuden coming out
Can't wait for the remastered version!!!!!!
Likewise! The spiritual successor Eiyuden Chronicle Hundred Heroes looks great too!
ive always been interested in the remaining true runes. as well as the 3 runes that still havent been fully talked about (circle 8fold and change.) not only this but there has been one factor that ive always been interested in. all runes are born from the 27 true runes. with each passing suikoden game there has been several new runes added in. there are also runes that are character Unique (only 1 character thru the series has them, im not going thru all of them.) but then in the shops they have many additional runes. lots of status changing runes like boost, killer, magic, multi strike, crazed, wall, knight, as well as the prosperity and fortune, etc etc etc. there are also runes that are "weapon" unique. like runes that 1h swords can use, runes that axe users can use. runes that bow users can use. boomerang. etc etc. then other runes still that are more inserted just for the specific game play. like sound, window, and holy for run speed. i havent even mentioned the battle "animal" runes like boar and falcon and viper that are unique attacks. none the less. with all these weird runes, what are their true runes? we still have 9 unaccounted Trues so there are still many things that can be created. i even wonder what the ressurection rune came from. some people think its the night rune or moon rune or possibly even the soul eater since its the "life and death" rune (the darkness rune came from it obviously.) for sure tho one thing i didnt like is how they handled the pre suikoden 1 games.....all these runes that are in suikoden 4 and 5 that are pre time line dont exist in suikoden 1. obviously cuz they improved as they created them in their order but chronologically its still annoying. suikoden 1 and 2 are definately in need of a remake just on this reason alone.
Resurrection rune maybe come from Holy rune.
Now at Nov 2023 ,I hope in Eiyuu Chronicles they'll update the remaining true rune 😊🔥🔥
WHAT IF VIKI HOLDS A TRUE RUNE ANDHUNTED BY SOME PEOPLE WHO CONSTANTLY AFTER HER THROUGH TIME SO SHE'S FORCED TO FLEE BY TRANSPORTING TO ANY SUIKODEN GAME SO SHE COULD PROTECTION FROM THOSE PURSUING HER AND SHE FLEE AGAIN WHEN HER PURSUERS ARE NEARING HER
It would be interesting if her teleportation (time?) rune was actually a sealed true rune.
Doesn't Viki also travel through time also?
Viki is from Ancient Sindar(from her cloth?) , so probably she is also has connection to Rune of Change (Maybe).
Also Viki timeline in game (personal opinion)= Suikoden 5 (She does not recognize lolerai if she from 1 or 2 she will know lolerai, her word when the first time meet "is that place still around" because new armes invade falena maybe she come from 6 or more) >4 (she know Jeane but Jeane seem not recognize her) > 1 > 2 > 3(she know Apple).
BTW suikoden game timeline = 4>5>1>2>3.
For me both Jeane and Vicky have to hold a True rune since they seem to be immortal and as we know immortality is one of the side effects
Viki and Jeane are believed to posses true runes.
For people coming here. The original eightfold rune was my design, I'm pretty happy that people still use it even tho it's been such a long time.
I always wondered what would happen if all 27 true runes were brought together. I imagine it could bring ultimate destruction to the world if they all clashed and that would be fun to experience.
@@silentecho92ableimagine every true rune bearer unite to final battle againts 27 true rune or true antagonist
..
Teamed :
1 Tir
2 Sierra
3 Chris
4 Lazlo
5 Zerase
6 Sasarai
It will be my ultimate team.
Viki and Jeane both Long Lives. They should be possess true Rune. Viki blinking mirror Rune and Jeane charm rune😂
Vampire can live long life like Sierra the Queen of vampire when her true rune is stolen she is still alive until now he reclaimed her true rune.
@@manoharalisa5829 neclord and sierra appears only in suikoden 1 and 2. The time length is about 10 years only. Who knows they long lives until 100 years old. Jeanne and Viki appears in every suikoden series. The time length from suikoden 4 (the oldest) to suikoden 3 is more than 100 years. 😁🤣
I WISH SUMDAY IT WOULD BE MADE A MOVIE,THE SUIKODEN🍺🍺🍺🍺
I have seen sort of a strange 2 minute long Suikoden film teaser here, looks like there exists something like it.
In the end, they stopped making the game and never revealed all 27 True Runes...a pity...
They continued
fvck u
I think Resurrection rune is child of some True rune.
Why you have to do this? Now I crave suikoden games again
I'm part of this is 6 crowd as well.
PSA - Richard was the man in V - change my mind.
True holy Rune belonged to that elf who could run very fast.
That is mistranslation name the true name is Godspeed rune. Holy rune is similar to resurrection rune and holy rune is not confirmed by game maker but im sure they add holy rune if the game still continued...
Jeane had the true charm rune,viki had the timespace true rune.Dont know about the others.thanks for this video I loved it
That was never stated, though.
Makes me so nostalgic. Thanks for creating the video!
So, in order for Riou to get true rune and became immortal, he had to kill Jowy? Riou won't be alive the next time we see him. He prefer to travel the world with his families instead.
one of the best rpg games. and still the soul eater rune have special place in my heart. mcdholl poor boy.
this is my first RPG that make me pLaying another RPG ,, so nostaLgic ,,
Day Arhie same dude
I believe Yuber to be the actual bearer of the Eightfold True Rune, no variation intended, in his case at least.
It's a shame we'll never get resolution to the Rune Saga of Suikoden. Even if we do get any new games in the future, however unlikely, Konami has all but abandoned that timeline for some inexplicable reason in exchange for the multiverse of sub par spin offs. RIP Suikoden.
As hyped as I am for Eiyuden Chronicle, I wish they could just finish out this universe. There are runes we know about and haven’t seen and runes we don’t know at all. There’s an entire continent we know about but have no idea what’s going on over there. Part of my wishes that Sony buys Konami and rabbit and bear so they can call it suikoden 6 the eiyuden chronicle.
Easr continent is where samurai origin so it land of Asia style mix with maybe Native American
.
i believe Rune of Punishment is among the strongest true runes.. together with Sun Rune, Dragon Rune, Rune of Change, Night Rune, (Complete) Gate Rune (if fused again together both parts..), Circle Rune, Life and Death, Rune of Beginning (also if complete, if its separate parts back fused again..) and Sovereign (as it has the power to cancel some other kinds of powers of\from other runes..).. not that the others aren't strong, specially True Fire, Beast, Eightfold, Moon etc.. but those others mentioned before (these) are, or must be, the shit.
the music takes me back to my childhood :'/
Freedom, again such an amazing theme glad to hear it again. ❤️ Ahhh the tragic stories of the true runes such a great epic concept. soul eater sword and shield punishment night rune gate rune all epic and you forget didn't the eight fold rune allow Yuber to become a giant bone dragon in green hill was it? In Suikoden 1? Yuber n Pesmerga were a story which I wanted to be mainlined as well as Clive's story as well. You left out the true runes make theirv owners sort of immortal immune to aging over time.
There are so many Mistery in This Game,
Cant Wait to update
i like mistery of the rune symbol
I wish Suikoden series would be continued. Such a great concept and world. Suikoden 3 and 4 are on the weak side, but the others especially 2 and 5 are brilliant.
Agree in everything.
3 Had the potential to be great, but splitting the story between the three characters the way they did made it much harder to get invested and immersed in any one of them, and really hurt the game overall IMO.
Should've just had you pick 1 of them at the start and stay with them.
@@planescaped Agreed. It would have given the game more replay value by incentivizing you to play the other character's routes to get more of the story, and effectively reduced the overwhelming amount of back tracking.
@@silentecho92able Agreed. The way it was done in Suikoden 3 included so much backtracking because you played through the same events with different characters.
@@silentecho92able Multiple characters with intertwined stories wasn't a new thing when Suikoden 3 did it as you pointed out. Seiken Densetsu 3 had done it on the SNES/Super Famicom and one of the best early implementations was Rudra no Hihou also on the SNES/Super Famicom. With all the love and attention being given to RPGs from the 90s I'm surprised Square-Enix hasn't brought Rudra to America in an official capacity. They just gave Live A Live a Western release and it has some of the multiple character aspects. Each character's story is separate in Live A Live until they all meet up, unlike Suikoden 3, Rudra, Seiken Densetsu 3 where all the stories are intertwined and you can see the same events, but from different characters' perspectives.
my old game, finish S1, S2, S3 and S4, never finish S5, my ps2 in bad condition.
and always wonder 27 runes other than game mention.
thanks to make this explanation, even 9 other rune still unknow.
always like suikoden story, i wonder no anime for suikoden story.
You forgot that the Rune of Punishment has 2 forms where the rune will take the life-force of the host in it forgiveness stage
This is correct it has 2 forms
Punishment and forgiveness
@@dimu9930only Razro has opened forgiveness power of the rune, so he now become permanent user of Punishment rune until the final battle when all 27 true rune out from bearer hands.
I want a HD remake
If you play through to the end of Suikoden 3, you can play as Yuber and can use his Eight-Devil rune. Not sure why the author of this video said it was not featured...
Yuber's Eight Devil Rune is a child rune of Eight-fold Rune.
eh we can play yuber? really? dont remember..
Rouge Dragon yes. a bonus feature in suikoden 3. if you completed the 104 stars just before the final battle, the extra 4 stars will be revealed and their point of view will be the bonus chapter, one of which is yuber. :)
Suikoden maker never say Yuber has true rune.
Jeanne and viki might bear some kind of true rune, i think
suikoden R.I.P
No more suikoden VI or VII??
We need to know 9 true runes left..
I think Clive's gun is one of the True Rune because Elza said that it had a soul and chose its wielder. Maybe a True Rune that mirrors Protection and Assasination. My theory, it is True Skill Rune because to be an assassin, one has so many skills
@@dwikafebrianto3016 hmm nice theories
Some of these runes were never officially confirmed as "true" runes though...
Hope we will know what are the other 9 true runes before the end of the world.
Surely this "time" rune and "space" rune will appear..
Don't mind me. just taking notes for my next dnd session.
imagine all the true runes present in one single Suikoden game XD
Jessie Reginrave Rosenqueen
And owned by a single individual.
That would be mind blowing! haha XD
people are only able to wield one true rune at a time
oknelum its a fact that only one person can hold a true rune at a time but what 'if' some one does exist!? then it's another story :D
oknelum that maybe. But the sovereign rune and half of the gate rune went missing at the same time after the first game.
Hopefully a lot of people purchase the Remake of Suikoden 1 & 2; maybe it'll give Konami a kick in the @ss to make Suikoden 6.
We have 18 out of 27 discovered so far; still 9 more to go and most likely 2 games more worth of content.
Hopefully we get some of our beloved characters back like Viktor, Flik, and McDohl.
Gremio would be a nice addition as well; same as Riou, Jowy, and Nanami.
It'd be cool to see the Scarlet Moon King make a reappearance as we have no idea what happened to him after the first game.
The suikoden original maker is not partt of namco now and they made a new game for now and resemblace theur suikoden.
I always thought Jeanne had one as well
There are "multiple" Jeannes.
Suikoden 1&2 hd remaster I so going to get I wish 3 4 5 would also have a remaster. I their was a suikoden 6 I would love to go to gian or arms they are two places we have not gone to
Cracked Theory: Hikusaak would have been the protagonist of one of the games, or at least one of his clones.
Actually there's one theory that stated that Hikusaak is a hero himself in the like of Tir/Riou. He rise up againts an empire, with 108 warriors, gain a true rune (circle rue), won, and created a new empire (Harmonia). But then the curse of the rune came and he became what we know now.
@@aaaa6251 . It would had been a great game.
suikoden discontinued its unforgettable legacies, while overrated games such as Ys, deception, disgaea, remasters of crash crazycoot the upcoming spyro the innocent dragon and medievil and tales games w/c was decent too still on the go...why it seems that this masterpiece can’t get enough attention it needs for us fans??? i guess a petition i think is worthy of enough trouble...what can you say guys???
We did have one, and it took god awfully long to get them to release 2 on the psn...
Though I'd love them to even release the japan exclusives into the western markets..
The night rune was destroyed according to the sword because it could talk and the sword itself post to been reborn from that rune...
I believe Zerase is the original bearer of Night rune.. because she know everything about sun rune and night rune.
If there is ever a suikoden 6 I hope it happens in either kanakan, harmonia, kamaro free knight, or the nagarea theocracy
I think if Suikoden life again, Harmonia take in last Suikoden.
All information shown in the video was taken from Suikosource website. How I wish there will be a Suikoden Anime to watch instead of reading duplicated contents from a video
Thanos: fine, I'll do it myself ...
Suikoden series cannot end until all 27 true runes are revealed
Love to think what the remaining 9 tunes are
Is the picture of Sovereign Rune, Rune of Change, Circle Rune and Eightfold Rune official? Cause never seen them before releases by Konami...
circle rune is official as per suikoden wikia. The others are non-canon images (fan made)
The circle rune icon was the emblem on the harmonian soldiers and flags in suikoden 3, it was just colorized and tweaked.
sovereign and circle are official
Don't konami understand all,we want is a suikoden 6. That takes place after the events in 2 or 3. Then include Victor and flikka. Not older and use old graphics. We don't want new grafix. Make,the game ps1 grafix. And it woukd, e way better then part 4
That is your opinion. I would want one with new graphics and after the events of Suiko3.
Yaaaasshhh , BRING BACK SUIKODEN
I think jhonny needs the Rune of stands. It will allow a criple person to stand again.
Eight fold rune was featured in suiko3 during luc's story line
Jomari bangbang AFAIK, it's eight devil rune, child rune/lower tier version of eightfold rune. thus not the true rune mentioned here
I still play suikoden 2, now 2021 👍
just imagine If 1 rune can be the central plot of 1 suikoden game and konami didn't fuck up, we could have had 27 suikoden games already
excellent video
Really love this game
But im still can't imagine how jeane (rune sage) can life for 150 years ++ and still young without soul eater ._.
9:38 Viktor passed it to Edge for safe keeping?! lol
By Viktor and Sword's personality and temperance. It's obviously discarded or throw it just like the past Suikoden 2 storyline.
And Zerase searching this Night rune, maybe Zerase is Night rune bearer.
i hope theres a new suikoden featuring the sindar civilization
Interesting video, felt if it had come around a time Final Fantasy wasn't as big we would have got more
Or maybe just general Konami...... Hopefully Eiyuden Chronicle smashes it
I still want to see Suikoden next game and new true rune.
stallion has got one of 27 true runes
Their trying to kickstart a new suikoden
rune of beginning is the most powerful of all... but destined to fight each other bearer's first.. but riou and jowy manage to stop the curse... suikoden 2 the best part ever.. with the suikoden 1 mcdhol extra event.. imagine in the last part bright shield + black sword + soul eater together in one team..
I think Sun rune is the most powerfull, without dawn & twilight Sun rune bearer will be insane.
You forgot the most Powerful True Rune of all, Georg Prime :)
There's still 9 we'll never know about, because Konami is a shell of what they once were....
Its originally called the soul eater dunno where you got the run of life at?? The two most dangerous true tunes for the living is the rune of punishment where it kills the host & then the soul eater where it kills people & devours their souls that are involved with the runes bearer... But lazlo didnt turn to dust weird that he didn't but he never woke up so I say he dead...
Yes!!! big na big talaga suikoden sa pinas lalo noong psx days. Tho 1 and 2 lang nalaro ko but damn, those were good games and good times. Nice vid
Geno Hemot Pwede mo nman laruhin sa Ps2 Emulator nag lalaro nga ako ngayon S5 Nsa Retaking Stormfist na ko

Sa PC Ang PS2 Emulator at walng android yan. ang spec ko Intel Core Quad tapos Geforce 210 Tama ang fps nsa 55-6 or 90-100% spe
The style of sun rune is very different with others
The sad part is there will never be any new suikoden games as the last one was a japan only release on the psp...
SinObscura sad fact
