There is problem of fanboyism in suikoden 5. The peoples in Rainwall and Stormfist just let this fact slip their minds that Falena is a queendom. It is Arshtat's country not Salum's nor is it Gizel's or Marscal. Then their is people like Alenia and Zahhak. I don't dislike Zahhak ( which is suprising to me since he is so ruthless.) as much as I did Alenia. She is so arrogant. She even has the audacity to call the royal prince of Falena traitor. That nothing but fanboyism on her part. Richard also fall into this blind fanboyism that is infecting Falena. Mueller doesn't give a damn about him and yet... such as waste at least in my sight. Sometimes I just want to say, Mueller makes his day glance at him.
Womanizing is a problem also. Kyle, Gravaya, and Wilhelm all act like they have never seen much less been with a woman in this game. Gravaya is just a sick pervert. Lets not forget the Sindar hunters. They all have this superiority complex especially Killey. These minor complaints honestly. I finds most of those characters funny actually. Except Alenia she has earned my contempt forever. _________________ arise my great fool and take over this foolish world with your foolish powers!!!!! |

Why hate Euram Barows? *rofl*
I hate these characters:
Moroon: He's not that cute...and so his style.
Oboro: I hate the way you recruit him. I talked to him a million times but he still won't join.
Lymsleia: Spoiled brat. If I were his big brother I'll spank her for being so annoying.
Gavaya: eh...what the hell....>_>
Salum Barows: I may like his son but not him. The way he talk annoys me.
Gizel Godwin: He's good looking but pure evil. *tsk*
Lu: She talks like crazy! I wanna 'slap-slap-slap' her in her 'ass-ass-ass!'

Lol Sydnee, I love your picture.
I'm so glad I'm not the only Euram fan out there. I was starting to get worried.
Anyway, most annoying characters:
Marina: She drove me nuts, I disliked her dress, her voice, her stupid pictures and her character overall. I know flawed characters are meant to be realistic but my god was that woman totally flawed. I hope one day soon she wakes up and see's a Belcoot shaped hole in the door and a big cloud of dust.
Cornelio: cringe. This guy irritated the hell out of me. Mediocrities? Ugh. Horrible man. Only thing I liked about him was his comment on the night before the final battle if you don't catch his precious DoReMi elves. Not exact quote but.....'I was going to play a special composition but a certain LAZY mediocrity didn't help me catch DoReMi elves. Do you know which medicrity that might be?' That made me laugh so much.
Gavaya: Yikes, that guy has never even kissed a woman before.....and I can understand why! He looks like a frog when he sticks his tongue out like that. I actually know someone who is like him in real life. Gavaya bugged me so much I wanted Mathias to 'despose of him in the nearest body of water'.
Sialeeds: I have a bit of a love/hate thing with this woman. I love her wacky outfit and blond hairdo but I don't like a certain area of her outfit that remains a little overexposed imho. Yes I know the guys love a bit of flesh, but isn't that what Jeane is for?
Actually I think one of my major complaints was that there were far too many women overly large lady lumps. Was that because they wanted to establish that the Frey was a guy? Although I'm pretty sure there were a couple of guys who could have competed with Sialeeds, Arshtat, Jeane and Kisara for that trophey :D
Toma: This boy's attitude stunk at the beginning of the game. Yes I know he had good reason to be that way but omg did he grate on my nerves quickly.
Dongo: simply because he is such a pain to recruit. My first playthrough he dissapeared after you asked him to join you and you never see him again. Second time through I gave him all the hammers and spend a ludicrous amount of cash sharpening my group's weapons and after asking him he said he couldn't leave his master. What a pain!
And finally and honourable mention goes to Lucerina's dress sense. I hated that outfit. Although I do like the Barows siblings overall they gave me the impression of children who didn't want to grow up, Euram with his personality and Lucy with her clothing. She looked like she was the same age as Lym even though she was 18. Girl, ditch the wannabe Alice thing and get yourself some new threads!
Phew, vent over. |

Hell, I'm a guy and I agree. I'm thinking they did this cuz they dressed the main charracter like a girl. _________________

Yeah, I'm totally sure it's because Frey didn't have big muscles and not at all because sex sells.
Nope. I'm sure those women "blessed" with big mammiaries were, in fact, there to remind people Frey was a guy, considering he's not like the other Suikoden heroes who were ALL built like Kurt Angle. Not at ALL an attempt to sell a game with some sex appeal; I mean, whoever liked Jeane because she was "hot"? _________________

lmao. Heh, you're funny with your sarcasm and stuff, but really, that's a sad attempt at T&A....If I wanted that, I'd go get DOA: Extreme Beach Volleyball... _________________

I never said it was the most successful (though I'm not sure how one measures that), I'm just saying the reason is far less likely it was because everyone thinks Frey is a girl, oh noes! (Am I the only person on earth who doesn't have trouble telling Freyjadour is a guy?) and far more likely that they were hoping the added sex appeal would help sell games. XD _________________

Yeah, you're probably right. Oh, and I know that he is a guy, he's just dressed like a girl, that is my issue.
I just think it's kinda dumb how games are like this. That's why I'm ignoring the whole hotest suikoden charracter thread. :roll: _________________

Eh, I really didn't have trouble telling Frey is a guy neither. The first time I've seen him, I was sure he's male. I really don't think he looks that womanly, as many people say.
But yeah, I do agree that Suikoden V's female characers were very exaggerated in terms of body proportions. |

No, Sophita, you aren't the only person on earth .... I never thought Frey would be a girl.

Unless you are a playboy bunny or page 3 model , lol.
It was probably to attract the teenage boy demographic to the game (no offense meant to any teenage male posters there).
I did think Frey looked a bit too girly but I think that was the artists trying to tell you that he's still a boy and hasn't fully developed in the muscle/ growth department.
You never know they might show him all tall and buff in the next game, kinda like Futch. |

Phew! I really thought everyone hates Euram!
We should stick together....>:)
Another character to hate:
Cornelio: Is Mediocrity the only thing he knows? His MEDIOCRITY is very annoying!!! >.< Maybe we should call Egbert and kill him and the FILTHY GODWINS together... _________________

Cornello is the one charracter who made me hate myself whenever I used him...Sorry if there are Cornello fanboys present(and if there are, slap yourself), but I wish he would have been killed off by a DoReMi. _________________

Ugh I totally agree there. I think I might have said this in another thread but the only thing I liked about him was close to the end at the game when he goes mental at you if you don't get his DoReMi elves and calls you a lazy mediocrity.
We should definately stick together on this one. I don't think I can be a Euram fangirl all by myself, lol. |
