Is Suikoden 1 worth playing?

Suikoden 1 is worth it on its own (and it’s short too). Even if you end up not agreeing with that, it is absolutely worth it for the backstory of the characters and the fantastic sidequest in Suikoden 2, which I think of as the best game of all time.

Do I need to play Suikoden 1 to play Suikoden 2?

Are Suikoden 1 and 2 connected?

There is a connection between the two games but not a very prominent one. Both have their own individual stories; you just learn more about the past of some characters more.

Why is Suikoden 2 the best?

Great story, fast and stylish combat, 180 or so characters to choose from, 6 man party. It’s a great game. I personally think it’s pretty much overhyped. The plot is nothing special and the characters aren’t deep enough to make me really care for them.

Is Suikoden 1 or 2 better?

Suikoden 2 is 10x better than 1. The problem is that by playing 1, you might not feel like playing 2 afterward due to outdated mechanics, and bad pacing and narrative from the 1st game. And if you play 2 first, there is no way you can play 1 since everything is outdated.
