Breath of Fire thread.
What is your favorite Breath of Fire and why?
2, because Katt does not wear pants and that is hot.
Actually, I don't give a damn about your opinion, but you are gonna be all about mine.
BOF2 is a boring game and Katt is stupid.
My favorite isn't retro.

Bof 2 is my breath of fire.
>>2789786
Do you realize you BoF fans are vocal minority before Katt fans, and that the last have a valid reason to not treat you any less?
>>2789773
Video games are generally garbage, senpai, desu.
I only played BoF2 because of Katt.
IV.
Had a really interesting setting, and a battle system that wasn't slow as hell.
II would be my second favorite. The shaman system is neat. I just wish there was more going on. There's also no "perfect" version. The GBA version has a great romhack that rebalances things, but it's stuck with the shit translation. The SNES version has a retranslation, but the pacing of the game is such that you have to stop and grind occasionally.
It has the best Nina. Ryu's dragon powers are borderline useless, as they use all your MP.
Very flawed game, and the setting is a bit generic, but I understand why people like it. It probably has the best cast out of all of them.
>>2789827
>dat elaborate font
you guys are so devoted it's endearing :)
Is 1 worth playing? I have 1 and 2. I've started 1, but it seems a bit ehhhhhhhhh as far as SNES JRPGs go. Does 2 get better?
I have both for the SNES (none for anything else).
>>2790107
it's grindy
>>2790107
1 is bleh, 2 is an improvement, 3 is REALLY slow at the beginning but picks up, 4 is one of the best JRPGs of the decade
>>2789786
At least he's not like the Vfags, who always derail the thread into dumb arguments about why their pos game is the best.
I can never decide. I know it's not the overall best, but I always stubbornly preferred BOFIII for the early 'youth' portion with all of the thieving shenanigans. BOFIV is easily the most refined, however, and therefore is the most enjoyable both in story and gameplay. The first two have my nostalgia goggles, though.
>>2789690
I prefer 1, because Mrbl3 eliminating random encounters made the game totally tolerable. 3 is my second favorite because the gene system is fun to experiment with. 2 and 4 I'm pretty ambivalent about. 2 has a better setting but combat is fucked. 4 has a shit setting, but the combat is better. Never played 5 because being punished for using the dragon mechanic was like a big 'Fuck you' to me.
My favorite is the one that forces you to play through hell with a gay underleveled monkey as your sole party member.
>>2790195
I would've liked the shenanigans portion if any of the characters were interesting, and Ryu wasn't a punk ass little bitch.
It also has the absolute worst Nina.
>>2789690
The one that didn't suck.

Tie between 2 and 4
Also I'm gonna sneak some Ursula up in here so it's not nonstop Kattnot that I necessarily have a problem with nonstop Katt
Dragon Quarter is best.
>>2789693
Came here to post this except I would have said Katt isn't lewd unless she is wearing pants
4's gameplay with 3's soundtrack and more 'cohesive' story structure that is actually completed would have made Breath of Fire into a masterpiece title
don't get me wrong both games are great but they all had their flaws. 4 was rushed in the end and the story was to be quite honest a little bad in that there was little incentive for Ryu's journey. Most of it was ushered on by the other character's motives. The part where you find out what Yuna did to Elina I felt was extremely underplayed, because I know for something like that the writers could have built the player to be more emotionally invested to give a shit but instead you just feel a little sad and go "welp time to fight Fou Lou I guess" Not to mention the so-and-so ost in comparison to the more memorable tracks from 3, from 4 I can probably only recognize one or two tracks where as 3 had a lot more memorable tunes.
3 obviously had the lesser gameplay, and the story is nothing to write home about but at least it was more invested than 4's was. Nina got sick in a desert and you had to kill a camel (your only guide back to the starting point in case you got lost as shit) just to keep her alive, I'd say that's worth something. Not to mention Teepo at the Garden of Eden and the Garland fight at the end of the child arc, a lot of scenes revolved around Ryu whereas a lot of 4's scenes focused a little more about the surrounding characters while Ryu just kinda sits and watches. Fou-lou was more interesting than Ryu in 4.
>>2790636
I liked how in 3, battles took place on the actual map. It's a small thing, but I appreciate it. The world map is also nice.
It's just a shame the game felt really restrictive and took hours upon hours for the game to actually get interesting. I came really close to just dropping the game, because it felt like it was going nowhere, and I didn't like any of the characters.
It was enjoyable, but at the end, it felt rather generic. Battle system almost felt like a step down from 2's. The shaman system really gave 2 a surprising amount of depth and variety.
I guess I wasn't really "invested" in some of the characters in IV, but I found the whole setting and premise to be very interesting. And having those moments where you got to play as the villain were great. Not many games have done that sort of thing.
BOF 2's soundtrack is such a major disappointment after 1's
4 > 5 > 3 > 2 > 1
4 reminds me of Landstalker for reasons I don't fully understand.
>>2791526
Maybe it's the isometric angles?
I feel like Dragon Quarter is in a class of its own because it's just so different from the rest. That said, it's one of my GOATs, easily in my top five. As for the rest:
4>3>2>1
It's an interesting case of a series genuinely improving with each iteration, something you can hardly say with nearly every other JRPG series.
>>2789690
The one we can't talk about on here. It's the more unique (albeit frustrating) entry in the franchise,
I liked the story of 4, the gameplay of 3.
I finished 1 and 2 on GBA just to say I did, but I thought they were a slog to get through.
It's interesting how some people always hurry to insert their 5 kopecks when they read they are being asked for opinions.
best girls use guns
>>2792746
It's interesting to see how some people need to show off their smug sense of detached superiority to anonymous people on the Internet.
>>2792756
You're not wrong.
>>2792756
>>2792756
Lin is such a Katt wannabe.
>>2792738
I honestly think all the BoFs have shit gameplay right up until 4 where it suddenly clicks and actually starts making sense. That combo and skill system is just really good. It's smooth as fuck. Not to mention 4 is the best looking and most horrifying.
Still, I like 5 better. 4 is about compromise. 5 is about fuck your shitty compromises I'm a dragon now.
>>2792779
And they are not showing off their sense of self-proclaimed self-significance by autistically typing walls of text at every opportunity, family? You are so amusing, and together with them you never fail to entertain me. Keep going, that's why I come to /vr/.
I played BoF1 a very long time ago. I remember being stuck for a long time because I didn't know you could change lead characters to walk through forests. The game was grindy and boring.
I then tried to play BoF2 because people on /vr/ were posting Katt, but it was just as grindy and boring as BoF1 only now JRPGs aren't something new and exciting so I have no tolerance for it, and I stopped playing.
>>2792792

Back to the future with you.
>>2792845
That's why Lin is just a wannabe and not the best girl (Katt).

You can't blame a 15 y.o. girl who led a secluded life of a fighter and who has a whole life ahead of her to showcase many talents for being overly excited over new things when she don't harm anything.

what a wonderful and riveting counterargument. Oh wait no you're just a twat grasping at straws.
>>2796334

I love me some Lin, but Ursula was hot to trot.
This image is SFW btw.
Where ma aussie fairy dolphins at?
>>2796682
>The question is do you think you'd survive the experience
Yes, because behind her tough-girl exterior lies a sensitive, gentle, feminine soul who just wants to be loved.
Who gets your vote for the best healer in the BoF franchise?
Rand's heals were pretty good if I remember right, plus he was a great frontline tank. Nina 4 was good too, though not as hardy as Rand was.
I don't even remember who the main healers were in 1 or 3.
>>2798701
>I don't even remember who the main healers were in 1 or 3.
Strangely enough, it's Ryu in 3 - he gets Healing spells naturally outside of Dragon mode.
Hey, guys
>>2798701
Nina was the main healer in 1. She also had loads of buffs and used a rapier. Nina 2 stands out as the Nina who was primarily a black mage.
>>2790074
>Ryu's dragon powers
>borderline useless
Not even remotely. Wisdom fruits, anon.
I just played it a week ago. I won't deny it's flawed. Probably my biggest issue is that the frequency of random battles can be a bit much at times. That and shaman fusions, as cool as they are, get broken too easily. I do agree it has the best cast though (especially the best Nina by far), and I enjoy how the story is filled with various sorts of character arcs rather than just a long journey.
I'd say IV is the best but II holds a special place for me.
>>2798701
I seem to remember using shamanized Bow as a healer in 2, which was bizarre. I think he had some kind of full party heal that cost a lot of MP.
>>2798969
That guy WAS the bad end in 4. Him getting away made it feel like the game wasn't finished even after Ryu and Fou-Lu do the fusion dance.
>>2793970
It was really neat when you reached the empire, and the normal battle music there was the same as what Fou-Lu had been using in the same area.
>>2792783
The school set from this artist was pretty interesting. How long did that mock dating game he was drawing keep going?
>>2793970

>That guy WAS the bad end in 4. Him getting away made it feel like the game wasn't finished even after Ryu and Fou-Lu do the fusion dance.
I disagree. I feel his survival actually does a lot to give Ryu and Fou's final conflict actual weight.
If Fou wants to kill everyone even the innocent to punish the wicked then Ryu as his opposite wants to save the innocent even if it means the wicked are spared
plus if you're into the prequel theory someone has to create the false goddess
>>2789690
I prefer the 3rd, mainly because of the gene system, but i know in other hand that party members sucked and the end is fucking terrible. The game still got many comfy moment that i loved.
I really like the 2nd episode, character were fine and fusion was really a cool thing.
Maybe i'll pass for a dumb but i don't appreciate the 4th, maybe because the game don't have a playable world map. I dont have even finished the game, as i can remember i stoped right on the last boss, i think i didn't farm enough cause i would like to finish the game really fast and not play it again.
>>2802661
>I prefer the 3rd, mainly because of the gene system
I will never understand the boner people have for this stupid fucking thing.
You weren't doing anything special. You weren't making unique dragons you where just attaching elements to the same base dragons.
What is the difference between opening the magic menu and picking frost dragon and opening the gene menu picking frost then picking dragon.
More steps is what.
>>2802661
>Maybe i'll pass for a dumb
>I dont have even finished the game,
>>2802053
4>5>1>2>3 actually makes a decent amount of sense.
>>2802664
It really didn't help that you were invariably going to use the same transformations every time anyway. You had like 30 genes, and would only end up using 6-8 actual forms. (whelp>dragon>Behemoth/Pygmy>Fusion>Myrmidon>Kaiser)
The fourth game really cuts the bullshit and is just like, here's the forms you were gonna use anyway.
5 is even better and just makes the best form the only form, and makes it hells of badass to make up for the lack of variety.
Had a friend when I was little who owned a SNES and was way into RPGs. He had a lot of the good'uns that have since appreciated to obscene value back when you could get 'em for MSRP. Breath of Fire II was one that he'd frequently be engrossed in for the whole time I was over til my mom came and picked me up around dinner time.
2 things I remember clearly to this day:
1) the final fight was with some dude going on about "god" this and "god" that. It was world shaking, as this was my first experience with a depiction of a religious zealot speaking of the "grace of god" but actually being a murderous nutjob. It was totally fucking metal.
2)
>>2789693
>Katt does not wear pants and that is hot.
Yup. That memory stuck, some 20-odd years later.
"Look. She's not wearing pants."
"Whoa. What?"
>raging 9 year old stiffie
>>2802687
no kidding, people act like it gave you all this crazy amount of customization but it's a jrpg so it was also preffered dragon form + element that the current enemy is weak too
and then once you get kaiser+failure everything else is just tossed outside the window.
It's not freedom it's filler.
>>2802701
BOF2 was pretty risque and subversive when you really think about it. And it came out in 1994...
4, because of the battle system
>>2802889
Meaning, you could swap all 6 of your dudes in and out of the 3-man formation up front? I always liked that. And I liked how your guys in the back would sometimes fire off a support ability.
>>2804473
that and the combo system, revamped skill learning system and improved masters
3>2>1=4
Didn't play Dragon Quarter, even if I do have it. I disliked 4, maybe undeservingly so. I didn't like trashcan robot, Nina sucked, Cray was kind of okay as was the fox lady. Scias was a waste of time and to this day I wonder what was the point of having him as a playable character since he contributes exactly nothing to the story in general.
The plot was kind of fun, I guess, but at times it was just weird.
>>2804908
>didn't like trashcan robot
nigga do you even know who's inside that trashcan
>>2804908
>Scias was a waste of time and to this day I wonder what was the point of having him as a playable character since he contributes exactly nothing to the story in general.
Maybe you should try actually paying attention. Because they explain pretty clearly why people join up with the endless.
Also Ershin is best character
>>2804908
I kinda feel that way but for 3. My biggest issue with it is that nothing interesting almost ever happens. The first half is mostly "Run away from the horses" and the second half is "Let's go meet the goddess!" And that's pretty much it.
I also didn't really find most of 3's characters interesting. 2 definitely had the most memorable cast followed by 4. People go on about Teepo but I didn't really feel anything for him cause he was only present for a very short time at the beginning of the game.
>>2805037
Seriously they expect the whole Teepo thing to be a huge shocker but it only raised more questions. Plus Rei's "power" goes completely unexplained
>>2804908
>putting 4 on the same low level as 1

Man you have some shit-tier opinions there, anon.

>>2806414
Beautiful image.
Do you have Artist name / Source ?
>>2805107
I dunno, I wasn't a big fan of Ershin, but I don't remember how much of that was because they didn't just give me Deis instead. I might be in the minority in that though, since her popularity seems to be low compared to all the attention that Katt and Nina get most of the time.
My Deis pictures seem to have disappeared as well.
Scias wasn't bad, but he really seemed like he faded into the background a lot. Wasn't he also sort of a victim of censorship, getting a stutter instead of being a drunk? 4 seemed to really get the shit end of the stick as far as changed scenes went, although it's not bad enough to change the quality of the game, or feel like you missed much.
>>2806437
considering what they left in I don't know why they bothered censoring anything
>>2806437
This is just a mock-up and not a real thing, isn't it?
>>2806564
Unless the artist decided to do more with it afterwards, it was just a ton of text and artwork. I saved that in 2005 though, so I don't remember the location of the site or whether there was anything to it other than the art.
>>2806437
>Wasn't he also sort of a victim of censorship, getting a stutter instead of being a drunk?
Yeah, but if we're being honest I think I like the stutter better. The quiet solemn mercenary is played out and him having a stutter being the reason he doesnt speak much just gives him a bit more charm to me
>>2805107
I liked Scias, but what was the point of having him as a playable character? He contributes zero for the story, has zero character development aside from that one part where he cuts the ropes that bind nazi fox lady. He's just along for the ride because they wanted a cool dog samurai to go along with you.
>>2806869
>they wanted a cool dog samurai to go along with you.
And that's the point of having him as a playable character, right there.
This thread reminded me of seeing my friend play BoF II many years ago.
I started playing it myself last night.
The grind is real, but I'm somehow having fun so far.
>>2806606
>a ton of text and artwork
so... a VN?
>>2808007
Yeah BOF2 is grindy as fuck, but it's a solid game. The late game is tons of fun.
>>2808007
just deal w/ it, grinding is how they used to balance games back then. you fags always complain about lack of difficulty in these games, just learn to grind faster
>>2804473
That pic is so comfy.
>>2808136
Not complaining. Just observing.
I am enjoying it, after all.
>>2808012
I put a little more effort into the reverse search this time. I think he went by Dr.p when he was doing the BoF stuff, but I couldn't find the images in that set with the stuff in the time I looked at it. I also couldn't find the old page, so it might be gone by now.
Pixiv page is here:
http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=66530
Although it seems like some of the image archives have more of his work than is included there.
>>2808012
Forgot to answer the actual question since I got sidetracked with the search. I don't remember there being dialogue, just what looked like descriptions with random images of scenes included.
>>2808180
>comfy
that word means absolutely nothing now
>>2789693
This is exactly what I came here to post.
>>2806869
honestly the only reason he's there is to be chill and a nice guy to balance out the incredible amount of SUPER SERIOUS going on with Ryu, Nina and Cray.

>Someone pasted Katt's face over Nina 2's.
>>2808654
yes. we saw. Katfagg is not a sane man.
>>2808515
That looks like dialogue to me.
>>2808853
There was a lot of text to go along with the assumedly fake screenshots. It seemed to be descriptions rather than characters talking, which would make it more VN like. Plus, it's not as if there were a ton of the screens either.
The ones I still have seem to have a 4chan filename, so I guess I didn't save some of the others from the site. I have some of the other artwork from his page with the original filenames, so I don't remember why I didn't keep more. I'll post a few more up since I wasn't able to find them still online alongside his other art.
And I guess that was all I kept ouf of the screenshot stuff. Probably more lying around somewhere on the internet, but there was a lot of duplicate artwork so I'm not sure It'd be worth anyone's time.
>>2809815
>>2809819
>>2809794
Those all read more like dialogue than descriptions to me.
I'll try to translate some, but I haven't actually played BoF so bear with me if I get the names wrong.

>>2809837
No, I was trying to talk about the text on the website that accompanied those images, not the text in the images themselves. Sorry for the confusion. Since the website might be gone by now, I'm not sure there's a way to confirm what was on there, though.
Ive got this game just recently for the SNES and its pretty nice but just how grind- y is it compared to FF2? or FF6? Ive played it maybe 5 hours and I just don't feel confident to go exploring as much as Id want to...
>>2808180
> a gun
>sharp lines everywhere.
Kirby is comfy this is not. at least use the term right..
>>2809958
The first game isn't too bad since you can eventually get an item that lets you avoid encounters. It's not really EASY, but it's not a huge problem. The encounter rate in the 2nd game is murder though, plus the fact that it's tough to run away.
>>2809973
gotcha. kind of like the Moggle charm I presume...
>>2810021
No, there's a consumable item that was mentioned above called mrbl3. It lasts a certain amount of steps, but I don't remember ever running out during a dungeon. You can go through the entire last dungeon without fighting anything.
>>2809815
>>2809819
>wingless Nina
>>2810075
The artist usually put wings on whatever version of Nina he draws. No idea why he left them off occasionally.
>>2809965
>He doesn't find guns comfy.
The pic makes me feel comfy fuck off mate. It's very nice, and I've seen it a lot in happy contexts.
>>2810104
comfy and edgy has been used so many times for so many things that it has lost all definition in 4chan
you can classify literally anything as either "comfy" or "edgy"
>>2810113
>the meaning of language evolves over time
>I guess that means nothing means anything
shit man why can't you just learn to keep up with society instead of bitching about it
>>2810113
You could have just asked me how I found it comfy instead of insulting me man, what the hell.
>>2810121
that kind of justification is skewed. There's been plenty of times in 4chan and in other areas of the internet where the term "edgy" was used for anything that was in any way "dangerous" or "dark". When someone says stupid shit I've seen people call that anon "edgy" for no apparent reason.
there is no standard for what was edgy.
same for when someone uses comfy. Someone can say "comfy" to something someone else thinks is sleep-inducing boring.
describing something as comfy or edgy is a poor way of describing something when everyone has their own stupid standards for what is edgy and what is comfy.
>>2810131
>insulting you
if that was an insult then I can't imagine how you're able to handle actual insults.
>>2810113
Maaaaaaan
I've been playing what (now) classify as retro games all my life. I'm 31.
I haven't heard "comfy" used the way it's used on /vr/ til I started coming here. I still don't know exactly what it means.
>>2810121
In that case, Loose, Grammer, and "I could care less" are now acceptable.
If those are not acceptable, your wankery isn't either.
>>2810113
That comfy comment was pretty edgy.
>>2799115
>That guy WAS the bad end in 4. Him getting away made it feel like the game wasn't finished even after Ryu and Fou-Lu do the fusion dance.
IIRC, it *was* unfinished. Capcom supposedly ran out of disc space before they could implement a confrontation with Yuna.
>>2811769
I didn't know I was using it wrong, shit.
I thought 'comfy' was something that made me feel comfy. Like a comfy blanket, a comfy game.

When you beat Katt, run forward and don't stop moving. This'll push her to safety so she doesn't get struck by the poisoned arrow, and she'll aid you in the boss fight.
Fucked if I know how to protect yourself if you can.
>>2816047
huh. Interesting.
>>2816032
You can push Katt out of the arena just after the fight with her and she joins you strictly afterwards.
>>2816068
I did push her, but she was in bed and was cured after the boss fight.
I purchased this game on snes recently and I am doing a run. I got to Frogland, I was happy to see a BOF thread, but so many spoilers at the begging of this thread.

Bad timing, I guess.

I love IV but it's a damn shame how that game was handled in localization. Weebs today complain about their soap minigames being removed from their nippy icchy titles but BoF IV was utterly junked in multiple ways for localization.
Doesn't necessarily detract from the experience, but knowing what changed dampens the spirit I have to replay it.
>>2818180I prefer some of the changes.

It's just /v/, and most of them are too young to realize this shit has been going on since localizing video games began. BoF 4 -is- one of the worst cases of localization censorship, either way.
Which one has the best town building?

Nina was the healer in BoF1, Rand in BoF2, I'd say onion with pants was in 3, though Ryu too had a lot of healing, and in 4...fuck if I remember much about that game. Nina probably.
All that said, Rand is probably the best healer. Hell, he's with Ryu, probably the best character in game to have.

4. Really improved the fairy village from 3
that said the ant colony in Quarter is cool too
>>2818604
Ive spent the better part of a decade looking and near as I can tell there is no official art of her without her hat on.
>>2818976
I liked two, for some reason. Fairy village in 3 was kind of bad. I honestly don't even remember the ones in 4 and 1.
>>2819089
4 was the fairy village but good.
1 had shit
2's Id hardly call town building at all. All you did was recruit a small handful of people to squat and only maybe 3 of them where at all helpful
is it fine if i just play 3 first on the psp? or should i do the first two before
>>2819464
I wanna say you'd get more out of the story if you play one first but frankly one is kinda dry plot wise and the games stand fine by their lonesome.
BoF2 has best cast.
BoF4 has best everything else.
There's nothing really interesting in 1 and 3 that makes them worth playing. Uninteresting characters, uninteresting plot, and incredibly bland gameplay for both of them.
I guess if you want to see the series in it's entirety you might want to play them, but if someone was asking me for just good RPGs, I wouldn't recommend them at all.
>>2819087
I don't really care if it's official or not. I just need to see dem ears nigga.
>>2819464
2 is one of my favorites so I'll always recommend people play that one first. I probably haven't played it in at least 5 years though so I'm not sure how it's aged. Maybe play it on an emulator so you can speed up random battles.
>>2820153
well let me see what I can find
no. this does end in sex
bonus Hortensia
why do so many fanartists like to include Bosch like he was there friend or something. Dude was a raging psycho without a single redeeming quality.
and that's all I could dig up. Hope it makes ya happy
>>2820259
I didn't mean to spoil that

>Or is there a specific breed of cat that has a tail like that?
probably. my cat has a pretty bushy one
>>2819792
Rei was pretty fun and I liked his thing. Garr was a kickass parrot. You don't get a lot of those, and Peco is a frigging onion wearing pants and kicking ass. What are you talking about? I know /vr/ jizzes over IV for some reason, but outside of crazy fox girl and "maybe" Ershin, the characters were anything but memorable in IV.
>>2820645
Cray was more complex than every previous party member combined and no scene in those games close to this shit
even the fucking team rocket villain in 4 was brutally competent
>>2820645
>Garr was a kickass parrot
>parrot
what
>Breath Of Fire 4 isn't on the EU PSN store
>Breath Of Fire 3 PSP isn't on the US PSN store
why

>tail proceeds from her butthole and not her spine
why the fuck do artists do this
>>2822779
That's too high to be coming from her butthole m8. lrn 2 anatomy

No it isn't. Perhaps you are the one who should lrn2anatomy.
