Translation description

This is the first ever complete translation of the first Suikoden to German. This patch tries to be as faithful to the original Japanese text as possible, with multiple corrections of mistranslations, misspellings and some minor censorship (references to alcohol were removed from the English version).

All graphics in the game have been translated to German.

Instead of the original PSX-Intro, the more sophisticated intro of the later released Sega Saturn version was imported. The intro has been completely translated to German.

In some translations of spells, runes and some geographic names, the translation aimed at maximum consistency with the German translations of Suikoden IV, Tactics and V, and ignored consistencies with Suikoden II, whose German translation is really bad.

Stilted even by German standardsSennelier2020-11-17Version 1.0

While it is commendabale to finally translate Suikoden to German, the fact that this is not a professional translation is all too clear.

The dialogue is stilted, which is common as the German langauge itlef is rather stiff, but even so it feels very unnatural. There isn't any cohesion when it comes to hoe the characters talk and as a result they lack the distict charcter they had in the English translation.

I would reccomend staying with the English one, unless you really really need to experience Suikoden in German

Best PSX Fan Translation in German so far.glurak2020-11-04Version 1.0

Yes I know the headline is big. And I'm involved (I even started it) in this project.

But I played it now multiple times and there is nothing what I wanted more.

Except one thing. Decensor the scene in Rockland. But that was not in our power :)

I enjoy now one of the best JRPGs on the PSX. (not the best the second one is it and yes I think some other are better as well)

BTW in the Description states SRPG but its not. Its a JRPG with 3 Scenes that are SRPG like. Not more :)
