Posted: Fri Dec 30, 2005 3:04 pm Post subject: Suikoden Encyclopedia Question |
|
|
This is just a small thread in which I'm asking a quick question for those with ownership of the illustrious tome that is the Suikoden Encyclopedia.
That question is as follows.
Are the amount of unique (i.e. not available easily on the net) images encased within the book enough to warrant purchase of the encyclopedia without having any knowledge of the Japanese language?
Answers on a postcard, please, or you can just reply in this thread. _________________ One day, I shall come back. Yes, we shall all come back. Until then, there must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties. Just go forward in all your beliefs and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine. |

Just type Suikoden Encyclopedia on eBay and you can probably get a picture of the cover if that's what you mean.
And as I (and Axiose before me) already told John in Their Star, they are almost no unique art.
They are some erm, kind of unique but is very small on the page which made me skeptic about scanning them especially from such a thick (and thus hard to scan) book.
But the Encyclopedia is mostly information, and general character art, kind of outdated now since it was released before Suikoden III. _________________ "I am ye who walks his own path and thus I walk alone" |

Yeah, the book is 99% text, and the images inside are images from other books. |
