Solved the Kwanda Rosman arc in Suikoden and am up to 37 Stars of Destiny. The was really sad, even if Kirkis and Sylvina's personalities are somewhat flat, .
The dwarves' outright racism towards elves and humans and vice versa is really harsh, but shows the utter contempt sowed by the several species' contempt for one another's differences. But,. I suppose that's a lot for a 1995 PSX game but, still. Dungeons are still rather bland and "Bravely Default-ish", but I liked the maze room in the dwarves' giant mountain vault. The Dwarven City is also rather gorgeous, the electric windmill is especially good looking.
I expected the war battles.
The duel battle.
Sadly I've only discovered in the making of this post's Talkhaus equivalent that you can. So oops!
Overall, yesterday and today, I've recruited Sergei, Gaspar, Antonio, Meg, Onil, Kai, Maas,, Sheena, Valeria and Meese.
Pretty sure I can do it on emulator too, the bombs have rather large hitboxes.

burning down of the Elf Village
you wouldn't really be expected to be intimately familiar with everyone in your army's troubles and inner demons, especially when they're a 108 man party

I would have liked to see dwarves and elves being more racist towards the human party instead of just between dwarves and elves, maybe making the shopkeeps begrudgingly accepting to help you and having them charge more until you prove you're on their side
I expected the war battles
to be closer in line of the Romancing SaGa 3 ones, as in, confusing and opaque to anyone who isn't a master. But it turns out they're quite simple and friendly. While a lot of it is using the formation with the most attack power, figuring out what's the best strategy to use still seems to be a factor in victory though
The duel battle
reminded me of both SaGa Frontier 2 and Pokémon Stadium. While in SaGa Frontier 2 you had a lot of options to experiment with and grasp new techs, Suikoden goes for a simpler Attack/Defend/Give It Your All battle system. It again, feels very easy to use and interesting to figure out, though for Kwanda you can mostly pick Attack and you'll win

The spinning you have to do is a tad tedious but it's nowhere near frame perfect.
