One of the best things about Suikoden, in my opinion, is the SoD bonuses. It really gives you a reward for being a perfectionist and getting everything. A lot of people seem to be saying that the bonuses have gotten worse in the newer games. So, I want to know, which do you prefer?

Personally, I like SIV's bonus. The hero survives, the RoP's cycle of destruction is halted, and Snowe finally gives up on trying to outdo the hero and being in charge.

I love the suikoden 3 108 star bonus.We get to play as my favorite character, his group of amazing fighters, and get to use his True Wind rune=classic.

I love suikoden three's 108 star ending because not only do you get to use the True Wind Rune you can also use Yuber and the rest of Luc crew plus you get the little pic at the end.

I have to go with 2. I, and this is a pretty upopular opinion from what I have gathered, like Nanami and I am happy she lived. I also like the reconciliation with Jowy and his ultimate redemption. Gremio is a nice guy and I like what he represents, but it's not as well done as Nanami/Joey in 2. Luc .. eh. I can do without his chapter. Getting a deeper view into his whiny angst is not what I wanted for my bonus. S4 is OK, but, again, not as well done as 2. There is real emotion in 2. It still makes me misty-eyed when Nanami runs out of the dojo and hugs you.

I totally would have to vote for Suikoden III there. It really fills in a lot of plot holes and it answered many questions I had. I loved how Suikoden III had viewpoints like that. It was a very good style. It really showed that everyone had a reason for what they were doing and it showed that Luc wasn't really that evil. He just didn't want an eternity of silence. Plus, I loved playing as Luc, Sarah, and Yuber. I wish I could have used the True Wind Rune in the main party. I loved that rune. It's the best one out of the 5 elemental runes in my opinion.

I found Suikoden 1's bonus kind of cheesy. I mean the game really made me feel guilty that Gremio died because the whole game I spent cursing that I had to bring him everywhere I went.

Suikoden 2's was pretty good, again kind of cheesy, but it was cheesy because it seemed like a cheap way to bring back a character.

I personally loved Suikoden 3's because it just fit with the whole game. Seeing the enemies point of view was a pretty good idea after playing through 4 other POVs.

Suikoden IV, with Suikoden closely behind.

I've never liked the fake death that Nanami staged in II. Like a poor rehash of Suikoden's bonus, except that resurrection is no longer an option.

As for III's, I only played Masked Bishop's POV once. I can't stand his character. Barbarosa, Cray or even Jowy would have made a much better antagonist' POV, to be honest.

I choosed SIV option. I like it probably because I hate when main characters die, besides because RoP is now in forgiveness phase, HeroIV has some freaking awsome powerful rune that isn't hurting him. Only thing I don't like in this option is Snowe- I really don't like him, I don't know why...

Definetly Suikoden III's bonus. Getting to play as Luc and seeing things from his point of view was great.

I also liked Suikoden II's best ending......and they all lived happily ever after!

I'd say I like foremost Luc's storyline from his point of view. He's my fav character and so are Sarah and Yuber! Though all the bonuses are good. Second fav is Suikoden 2's bonus! Its also great!

I voted for Suikoden 3's bonus. You get to play as luc, Yuber, and control both of their runes respectfully. You also get to see Leknaat (sorry for the possible spelling mistake). In my opinion it was the best bonus of the four.

sybillious would love this thread. XD

I agree that Suikoden III's bonus was the best. It shed light on a lot things and answered a lot of questions. I thought it was pretty smart. And we get to play as Yuber!!!!!!!!!!!!! :twisted:

I agree with most people here. I really liked SIII's bonus. I mean you get to play a whole new chapter that reveals new elements of the story!! If that isn't a great bonus, then I don't know what is. Sure, the other bonuses are really neat, but in my opinion they don't compare to getting to play from the villain's point of view, explore the reasons for his actions, and see the world from his shoes.

Now that's what I call a 108 SoD bonus.
