All New Features in Suikoden 1 & 2 HD Remaster
Auto-Battle and Double-Speed Battle Mode
The remastered versions of Suikoden 1 and Suikoden 2 introduce two new battle modes: Auto-Battle and Double-Speed Battle Mode. Auto-Battle mode allows the game to automatically choose actions for your allies during your party's turn, making combat more relaxed. Double-Speed Battle Mode accelerates the execution of actions in combat, speeding up gameplay. While these features make battles more enjoyable and less stressful, keep in mind that relying on automated commands doesn't always guarantee victory.
Character Dialogue Logs
A significant addition to Suikoden 1 & 2 HD Remaster is the dialogue log feature. This tool enables players to review past conversations and lines from various characters. With this, you can easily revisit key story events and dialogues, ensuring you never miss crucial information.
