I would weep of joy. An Xbox-exclusive new Suikoden game made by Murayama is undoubtedly 1000x better than no new Suikoden game lol.

It would be cool if Yoshitaka Murayama worked on another Suikoden [Update: Announcement soon?]

I can't see how it would make any sense for anyone involved but I'd settle for it
My wife would legitimately collapse if Suikoden 6 was announced, she is like die hard fangirl of them.
Imagine Xbox picks them up from Konami and gives them to a studio reknown for rpgs... I wonder who that could be..

I'll happily take a 25 Anniversary remake of the original Suikoden if he's using the original docs to expand it and bring it up to par with the later games gameplay wise. But I'm probably setting myself up for disappointment even then.
I think if they ever made a Suikoden 6, it would be set in the mountainous kingdom west of Falena under a tyrannical theocracy that was hinted at in Suiko V.
I think that was the intention of the Suikoden V development team but still that was over 15 years ago. If Suikoden VI will happen it could be anything really.
I feel like Konami wouldn't allow him to tease any announcements on Twitter. The last tweet he posted where he showed the cover of the original pitch document for Suikoden even said "Just barely within the range of not getting in trouble" (probably with Konami).
With Murayama reaching out to his fans like this, it sounds more and more like it's for a crowdfunded spiritual successor instead of a Suikoden VI. But either way, it would be a dream come true! If it's a Kickstarter, I would be the first to back it.

I know how much you like Suikoden (specifically, 2). On the extremely off chance that it releases as an Xbox exclusive, I'll be first in line to drop $50 into a GoFundMe to get you an Xbox haha
I would be equally as miserable. It would be the Grandia remaster all over again but this would hurt more.
Seriously. My birthday is in three days, this would be like an exploding cannonball being fired through the wall of my house.
Happy birthday dude, my birthday is the day after yours (26th).
... (beat)
Wait and see. I'm genuinely curious (and extremely interested, but I'm keeping my expectations in check).
My poor heart can't handle new disappointments. But if, somehow, Suikoden 6 got announced... Well, 2020 can't be redeemed, that year is fucked beyond belief, but I'm taking everything positive and cherishing it at this point.

Yeah, some of my co-workers are hype but I just can't feel it. I hope it gets a talented fellow and his team some well-deserved coin. But I'll be floored if this is Suikoden.
I still need to play Alliance Alive, my copy got canceled :(
I'm in whatever he is working on, well, maybe not mobile.

Do we even know if Blue Moon Studio ever spun up into a full team? I know for a long time it was literally just Murayama's name for HIMSELF.
I don't think they did? Regrettably, I'm not sure offhand, and I'm out to lunch now. Shoot, haha.
That would kind of defeat the appeal of the series though. People want Suikoden to continue because there's already so much established lore and worldbuilding. Otherwise it's just another JRPG like Alliance Alive, which is a good game, but it's not Suikoden.

I'm getting anxious. At this point I'm cheering for it to *not* be Suikoden because there's so much riding against it.
Could Konami pull off a Suikoden even with Murayama? I'd like to believe it... I dunno, my heart couldn't handle them fumbling it up.
I hope it's a Murayama Not-Suikoden I guess. I'd also just love a re-touched 1&2 with a better translation or a 3 redux/director's cut..

I'm going to crash face first into the brick wall of disappointment, but I don't care:
Don't do this to my heart. A new, mainline Suikoden has been my most longed-for game since 2009.
