So a friend of mine recommended suikoden so I played it and was satisfied until a certain glitch/bug in the game prevented some of the new characters that I recruit to NOT get a stat gain when they level up. I just noticed this recently because they're barely doing any damage to monsters and their stats are the base stats(The stats they have on level 1). At first I thought it was natural and the game is just pretty hard so I continued playing with it until things became too impossible and my team gets wiped by a group of monsters ._. Now I have to get another copy of the game and repeat it ;-; *cries for 8+ hours of wasted gametime*
