Didn't take part this time, but I'm happy for everyone who did.

I do worry a little if Konami will sue them on the mistaken assumption it plagiarizes Suikoden, but, I doubt even they would go that far.

Kickstarter games do have pretty poor track record, but least they have an all-star team on board on this so hopefully everything goes well, though I assume delays will be inevitable(no way it's out in 2022...).

For ever MN9 Kickstarter,you get a fantastic ones like Bloodstained, Wasteland 2,Undertale,FTL,Shovel Knight,and etc. As long as they didn't promise too much,that their budget doesn't support,then I'm sure this will turn out great.

Suikoden is based on a Chinese novel that's a few hundred years old called marsh banits including the concept of the 100 heroes so not sure what Konami would sue for ?
