In Suikoden 1, 2 and 4 the Tenkai Star which is the hero gets their own name officially from Konami.... But in Suikoden 3, Konami named it by theirself (Thomas) eventhough we still have to name the Flame Champion...

So, in Suikoden 6, do you want to name it again or do you want Konami to name it, or an official name given by Konami and you could change his/her name?? :D

To me, i prefer Konami named it though :mrgreen:

Those names "given" to Tenkai Stars of Suikoden, 2 and 4 are not official.

Only Thomas' name is official.

I would like to know what the official name of each hero is, but I also like to change it if I wish. Of course, we have the names of the characters in the novels, but they're not official. They're useful for the purpose of reference, though, rather than saying Hero1, or Hero2 etc.

I'd like to name my hero Vertius, if I please, but I would also like to use an official name.

I always name my hero the same name (Tsumi), so I would not like them to have an official name, at first. If Konami wants to come back with a novel or something later on with an official name, i'd name the hero his official name on the second playthrough or something.

I like it how it is!

There are sub offical names for those that like having the "all is right" thought about naming things. I'm one of those, The game feels werid if I don't have the name that's offical, but when there isn't one it doesn't bother me any.

And seeing as they are only sub offical names, people who like naming characters what they want can freely do it without feeling like they choose the wrong name.

I agree as sad as it is, the offical name coming later often adds replay value for some people.

I would personally want to name my own hero for Suikoden games. I think Konami should keep it this way as a way of keeping up the tradition that they have made in the series.

Personally, I like how it is. You get to name the hero, while Konami releases a novel name some time after the game is realeased. I like naming the hero myself, and after a few playthrouhgs, use the novelized name after. I think it adds some replay value to the game itself.

I'm not very original, and I hate naming characters the same name, and I hate having to refer to the characters as "Hero#." I also don't like the long delay time to find out the Hero's name in the form we are getting it. But I do like that the name field is blank. What I'd like is an "official" name, but not a "default" name, like what they're doing, except faster.

I wouldn't mind if they made the tenkai's name, and it would revert back to that if you hit a "default" button, or something, but I'd like to be able to have a choice.

Let's see an offical name for the hero,but allow the player the option of changing it on each of the player's playthroughes of it.

Obviously an official name with the option to change freely, that is the best of both worlds.

I go for the same of having an official name that I can have the option to change when I start the game.

well they could always do another Thomas thing, and have the player be various characters. Like how the RoP passed onto other people in the game, have that only all the dead holders could of been played by you for a while.

that would be pretty cool.

An official name for continuity purposes with the option to change it at the start of the game works fine for me.

Although just having an official name, full stop, would make voice acting a lot easier.

I'm going to have to agree with John here. I like having a name I can change, since it's easier to discuss. However, if there's voice acting, it's nice to have a chosen name. It was annoying in Final Fantasy X when they kept calling Tidus "the new guy" or "the boy," just because they couldn't use his name.
