If you like world building stories and the characters, you'll love it. But you won't really know until you play it. I had trouble sticking with it. Took a lot of breaks. But it is a very good story. And the closest thing we had to a Suikoden game after Konami killed that franchise.

You can also try watching the first season of the anime, if you want to dip your toes into the world. But just the first series. Skip the second and third one and play the games.
