I'm pretty sure it takes place back when Ted got the rune from the first Suikoden, or at least that's what I've heard.
I don't like prequels because they usually end up telling us stuff we already know. Like no matter how it ends, we know Windy is going to get away with being evil and that Ted get's screwed, etc.
I've never heard this before. All of the previews I've read have stated that it's basically the same idea as Suikoden 3: it's set a few years later and in a different part of the world.
Besides that, I'm sort of excited about the game, but not as much as I would be if they were still using the Trinity System. Because of the Trinity System, I was able to spend time playing as almost all of the 108 Stars without feeling like I was leaving out my favorites, and I'm not really sure how much I'll like the usual "hero + three characters" system after that.
But on the other ahnd, I'm really liking the way the story and the characters are shaping up. The Rune of Punishment sounds like an interesting plot device and I'm interested in most of the female characters that were in the trailer. And it looks like one of my favorite characters, Viki, is going to be a lot more prominent in this game than she was in S3.
Too bad none of the male characters seem even remotely interesting, though. Hopefully Nash will come back again to fill that void.

Ok, cool. I was just basing the prequel thing on stuff I had heard from early impressions and other things I'd heard, so it's good to hear that it's probably not one.
The main character looks so ugly that it's soured me a bit. I'm sure the game will be good.
