Suikoden IV: a retellingNotes: For Hero4’s name, I’m calling him “Yon”. Why? Because it means “four”. Hey, it was either that or “ANGRY GLARE BOY” , and that would just be a bit too much to write . Technically, no knowledge of Suikoden IV is really needed to read this. Basically… I’m just making fun of the whole thing ^_~ . Though going in with Suikoden IV knowledge certainly won't hurt. Oh yeah, and this WILL have spoilers, so don’t say you weren’t warned. Oh, as a side note, though in the end I didn’t enjoy the game much, I’m not writing this out of spite. I really am writing this in good fun ^_^ . Oh and uh... there's some language sprinkled here and there. Anyhoo, onwards to the story! -------------------------- Out on the high seas, the young Gaien Knight trainee’s proceed with a mock sea battle. Soon they are boarded by the opposing forces and forced into battle. Snowe, the captian for this excercise and his servant/friend and the hero of this tale “Yon” proceed to kick some booty. Snowe: Ph34R my awesome captain powers XD ! Yon: -_- angry glare…. Snowe: PH34R! Yon: A-angry glare 0_o; ! Snowe: That’s more like it, now then! You attack “ ” while I attack “ ?” . Yon: angry glare 0_o ? aaaaah… Angry glare! *attacks a random enemy* Snowe: WHAT DID I JUST SAY? You attacked the wrong one! That’s it, I’m not putting out tonight. Yon: a…angry glare…. … *The REAL commander of the Gaien naval fleet boards the ship and challenges our boys to battle.* Snowe: *attacks Glen* Snowe: *trips and gets knocked out* Glen: Ooookaaaaay…. Yon: ANGRY F’IN GLARE!!! Glen: Holy mother of hades! Your mere ability to stare at me angrily makes me admit defeat! Yon: *proudly* Angry glare! Snowe: *groans from his position on the floor* Glen: *ignores Snowe and continues to congratulate Yon* Yon: *happily* Angry glare! Snowe: *gets up* Um… EXCUSE ME! Slightly injured noble here! Glen: *stares at Snowe* Yon: *angrily glares at Snowe* Snowe: Can I get a hug or something… Glen: Um… how about we try something else *BITCH SLAPS Snowe* Snowe: Sonofa….! Glen: Now, as I was saying Yon, today you guys are graduating! Ain’t that nifty keen? Snowe: soooooo not putting out tonight…

I have plans to go through the whole "plot" of the game this way actually >D . I've already got a few more installments written out, but I'm going to wait and see how the reaction of everyone is before I go on.

Whoo! Hope everyone else will like it. ^_^ You've inspired me to do something I've been wanting to do... >D *plans it* I won't tell. >D Nyah.
And...I noticed your tagline Lovely. Wow, it must have really been a bad game. XD

At it's worst, it was horrible, at it's best it was merely average. All in all it was just disapointing. BUT! That's because I have a bias for games that don't have a lot of characterisation. It wasn't a good gaming experience for me due to my personality I suppose.
It had a lot of potential though, hence the reason that there is a good amount to make fun of ^__^ .
Oh yeah, and contrary to how I'm writing this, I actually DO like Snowe ^^; . He's just really, REALLY easy to make fun of.

This part is short (actually, they are all designed to be fairly short).
------------------------
Jewel (One of Yon’s “friends”): OH MY GOD! Tonight is the kindling ritual! A ritual where we celebrate our graduation! And burn things! AWESOME XD .
Snowe: By “burning” things, do you mean Yon? ‘Cause at this point I wouldn’t really mind that…
Yon: A-Angry Glare 0_0 ?
Jewel: Um… no… we burn torches and light some fireworks 0_o …
Snowe: ……
Snowe: Oh….
Snowe: huh.
Yon: ;_; -------------------

Heh, well... only Res seems to be reading this but... Ah well ^__^ .
-------------------
The graduation goes off without incident and the “Kindling” ceremony begins. The kindling ceremony is where the most elite of the new trainees lights a path of torches until he reaches the main square of the city. Then a great speech is given and the city celebrates the occasion by lighting off a slew of fireworks.
Chiepoo: Excuse me, but If I may interrupt, I just wanna introduce myself, I am a “Nay-Kobold”. I look like a large walking cat, behold my cuteness!
Snowe: Um… your point?
Chiepoo: That’s it ^_^ .
Snowe: Oh. Well… you’ll become important later right?
Chiepoo: Nah, this is pretty much the depth of my characterization ^_^ .
Snowe: Uh huh….
Chiepoo: Pretty much everyone in town is like me, I bet they wouldn’t even notice if your mute friend there lit the torches instead of you.
Snowe: Wha? Oh please *rolls his eyes*.
Chiepoo: $100 potch says I’m right.
Snowe: You’re on!
Yon: Angry glare…
Snowe: Aaah, don’t be like that slave… erm… I mean BUDDIE, I’m letting you light the torches out of friendship! Honest!
Yon:….
Snowe: *sigh* Seriously! Seriously! I mean, SURE you clean up after me and stuff, but, we’re still friends right? I don’t mind you getting a little recognition. I mean, it’s not like your popularity will ever overshadow MINE or anything, right ^_^ ?
Yon: …… angry glare ^_____^ …. (translation: muwahahahaha….)
Despite feeling a bit like a doormat, Yon decides to just enjoy himself and he lights the torches in Snowe’s stead. I mean… FIRE, what’s not to enjoy?
Random village person: *to Yon* My goodness Snowe! You’ve become silent and angry looking haven’t you ^_^ ?
Chiepoo: Pay up goofball :p .
Snowe: dammit >_< !

I guess no one else is reading it because they don't know Suikoden?? XD Well, I don't...but I find it funny anyway.
Heh, I don't know much about Snowe, but from what you're writing, he does seem easy to make fun of. XD

Shujinkou IV (Hero IV) isn't THAT bad... but... in a game where there are voices, it's really weird having a silent hero... I usually don't mind them when it's just text, but...
And Lovely, I'm reading it too!! Didn't you see me asking for Ted?

The thing that's bad about Hero IV is that he really DOES have a creepy angry glare... ALL THE TIME. Regardless of the situation. It doesn't help that his head is kind of small and his eyes are really wide ^^;.... It's just kind of spooky. Oh, and I'm glad I have readers ^_^. I'm an attention whore online. Hence the site XD . (I'm kidding! I'm kidding!) EDIT: It's going to be a while 'till I get to Ted though ^^;. I'm trying to follow the original order of events. So much so that I'm using a GameFAQS faq to help me out a bit ^^ .

I don't really like this next part. It doesn't flow very well and I think the humor comes off rather flat. I even considered cutting this part but... eh well. I'm posting it anyway. Consider this an easter egg ^^;.
-----------------
The ceremony goes well and all is happiness and giggles. OR IS IT?
Chiepoo: Woo hoo! 100 potch! I’m gonna buy a fish ^_^ ! Erm… I mean… HELP, A girl has been kidnapped!
Yon: ANGRY GLARE??!!
Chiepoo: Of course I’m telling the truth! Go that a ways in order to tack some time to this game and gain exper… erm, I mean, save her!
Snowe: Woo~ maiden saving! This will REALLY get everyone in town to love me!
Yon: Angry! Angry glare!
Snowe: Oh! You’re right Yon, we shouldn’t do it for the praise, we should do it for the sense of well being.
Yon: Angry glare!
Snowe: Man… you really need to watch the profanity dude…
--Due to budget constraints and time issues the next scene will be slightly shortened.--
Saved little girl: Thanks for saving me big brothers ^_^ !
Yon: *happily* Angry glare ^_^ .
Snowe: Uh, yeah… whatever… c’mon Yon, lets go to bed already *winks*.
Yon: Angry glare 0_o ?
