[Spoiler]How many new True Runes are mentioned in the game?

?
Isn't the Eightfold Rune that Yuber holds a true rune? If not then I guess I've been misled by something I read online. o.o;

But they could have more freedom and choices to make if they keep the number pretty much constant. Although it may not be fun... M'eh, it's tolerable. We can only hope that they keep hurling out our series. ;P

Also, if they mentioned all 27 too soon wouldn't it be too obvious what powers a True Rune holder hero would have and whatnot? I don't know... ^^;

Let's look at it this way, the longer they take to reveal all of the 27 true runes the more Suikoden games there will be.

I don't think there's really a "proper" amount of True Runes that has to be introduced per game except those which Konami decides to introduce. With only a finite number of True Runes in existence, it stands to reason that introducing them sparingly is a wise decision.

As for known True Runes, doesn't Hikusaak have the Circle Rune? And I don't think the Conqueror Rune Windy had in Suikoden I was a True Rune, was it?

Anyway, Suikoden isn't just about True Runes.

Yep, Eightfold, Rune of Change, and the Circle Rune are also true runes.

The game revealed so much about the Rune of Punishment anyway. I didn't see the Rune of Beginning being involved as much in Suikoden II... ha.

I kind of like that Suikoden games don't come out like clockwork almost every year like Final Fantasy games used to. If there are only two Suikoden games per console generation, the additional development time can be used to create a really good game. I'm hoping that whenever Suikoden V comes out, it will deal with the Queendom of Falena in depth. It's not too unreasonable, since the Island Nations are within the general vicinity of Falena, like the Scarlet Moon Empire neighboured the City-States of Jowston.

I also wouldn't be opposed to seeing more prequel events, perhaps even in side games from the main series. The Succession War seems like an interesting event, and could include numerous characters from the original Suikoden. Teo could even be the main character, and we could see younger versions of Gremio, Tir, Pahn, etc.

@Gwendal...uhm...where is the True Wind Rune mentioned in SII...Luc is hiding it although he uses it btu he tells Flik that its hard to do a spell like that and it takes time to do it again as an excuse cause he didnt want to reveal his rune

He revealed to the players that it was a True Rune. In reality, the True Wind Rune was first revealed in the Japanese version of Suikoden 1. The translators didn't say that the Stone Golem back on Magician's isle was summoned using Luc's rune.
