I'm sixteen hours into Suikoden 3, still in Geddoe's chapter one. I'm liking it while not yet hooked. Some luck has made the ride easier this time around. I won the lottery. Something I ignored in the game the first time around. This happened with Hugo, who is a dirt poor hunter from the Grasslands. I did the same thing for Geddoe, who is a mercenary and worried about the budget. This changes things drastically. In Suikoden you don't get new weapons. You upgrade the one you have. So I'm able to maximize my weapons to the regional limit for the entire party right off. I didn't need to worry about money for Chris' chapter one, as she's a well paid Zexen Knight. She starts with 200,000 potch. This extra money has also allowed me to outfit my parties with the best armor. I've also used my relaxed pacing approach to spend some time just building skill points. Skill points are used to build the skills of each character. The level of damage they do, their parry, their accuracy. I've maximized them for the most part and am now working on building their magic power. I've managed to recruit quite a few of the 108 Stars of Destiny already. Many of them I never even noticed originally. The story is still in the setup phase of the typical Suikoden political intrigue story, so it hasn't kicked in to high gear as of yet. It's looking good, for now. Let's see where it goes from here.
