I've never actually finished BoF 3&4, but I've always liked them.
I just picked up this save of BoF IV I hadn't played for months but I don't really know where to go now.
I'm streaming at twitch dot tv/omnicrash so if you're bored enough please come help me.

Currently at that town where you have to find some orphans.

I'm just gonna use this as a tool to force myself to finally complete all the rpg's I either never completed or haven't played yet. Even if only one person is watching, it seems to motivate me.

I never liked BoF IV. Might be because I expected something more like BoF 3. I don't know. The characters didn't grip me(wtf was the point of that trashcan, the fox bitch was useless, there was literally no point for the cool samurai dog to be a character aside from looking cool, he's got like three lines in the game, the tiger was sort of cool I guess and the white haired guy you occassionally play as was okay), the story was dumb even for jrpg standards and the battle system was meh.

I liked they kept the masters stuff from III and I sort of feel like it might have been a better game then it was for me, but just didn't like it.

It's a very polished game; nice music, solid battle system and great pixel art in characters, animations and environment textures. But I literally can't remember any plot point or setpiece that stuck with me; there's an unengaging, mellow, low-scope feeling to the game that made playing it feel like a chore most of the time.

I liked BoFIII, though. The masters sytem and the fairy village stuff really went over my head back then, but the character-based plot worked pretty well -and I can remember several 'moments'-, and it was simple but fun to play most of the time.

No they didn't. 3's character where incredibly dull. The only ones that had any plot significance at all where Ryu and Garr. Nina was just their for traditions sake, Momo was useless she ended up getting overshadowed by her doll and Rei was a faggy edgelord with a catch phrase.

So I played a bit of BoF3 and 4, and I think I'm gonna stick with 4.

It just seems overall more interesting. And the battles seem to be a lot faster, which is a big thing for me.

One of the most annoying things for me in the 6 hours I played of BoF3 was attacks missing so incredibly often. I once was fighting some nut thing, and it dodged like 10 attacks in a row. And not a single battle went by that Momo would miss at least one attack.

That combined with how slow the battles are is a bit too much for me.

>> No.2345138

>>2345130
Momo is notorius for missing pretty much everything. She's a useless piece of shit anyway. But the game is in my opinion much, much better than IV. I liked the buildup, the passing of a generation and the tone that the game set. But I guess it's different strokes for different folks kind of thing.

>>2345138
>Momo is notorius for missing pretty much everything. She's a useless piece of shit anyway.
Its so great that BoF3 forces you to have her in your party whenever computers are involved.

Oh yeah, and thats pretty much the entirety of the second half of the game, including the last dungeon.

So your amazing group fo Ryu/Peco/Rei is now constnatly forced to shove momo in for someone. My biggest criticism of BoF3 isn't the shitty minigames, really bad pacing, worthless first half, bad exp and money curve. No. Its being forced to use certain party setups. You may as well just have momo in your party full time since you -have- to use her.

>> No.2345259

>>2345171
That's not realyl true. Granted, I played the game years ago, and I do remember you had to have her in a few fights, but you are exaggarating. Plus, there are abilities like that Lock on bullshit that you can learn from enemies so you can make her hit. If not, she's a fairly competent spellcaster. Still worse than pretty much every other character. Big bird, furry, onion jeans and fap material are all better.

>> No.2345293

>>2342897
Disagree. Peco and Garr can become more than serviceable without the need to grind with relative ease. Peco is the next best compared to Ryu in battle. Fuck having a onion that only says "pshuuuu~" or "Pukiii!" in your party though.
Of course, Nina has no excuse, i'll give that.

>> No.2345296

>>2345130
3 is more interesting by far in my opinion. It is bright, vibrant, lots to do and you can get delightfully autismal with the min/maxing.
Music is jazzy, towns and setting are more memorable (of course this is all just opinion)

Attacks dont often miss of BoFIII....but Momo has appalling accuracy, mainly because she would be too OP if it was high, she does good dmg. There's an accessory called the artemis cap that's found in the dump right before you find Peco that fixes this.
I would also like to point out that those Nut enemies have very high evasion anyway, it's their thing. Dont get annoyed at a game for having unique enemies with different battle patterns.

That can be rectified after fairy village segment is opened up. Just be sure to have a spare Swallow's Eye and have gotten the best Fairies available regarding the Copy job. If you are missing stat boost items, There is a gift shop that gives them, but you need to fight a specific number of battles to get the item you want.

7: Fish Head

31- 40: Life Shard

41- 50: Magic Shard

51- 60: Power Food

61- 70: Protein

71- 76: Swallow Eye

You can literally max out every stat that way. Reloading is a must as if you save outside the Fairy village, the item will not be set as a specific type (AKA if the item is destroyed because it was a failure, reload your save from outside the village.) You can literally get 6 items every 20 battles or so after you duplicate several of them as the base usage (Location of battles do not matter either, so fighting in extremely low level areas will assure item duplication is done quicker)

AKA: Get items from Gift shop as seed material and duplicate them.

hah hah. no. 3 just came out at the right time in the PS1's life so it has the most exposure. 4 is head and shoulders above it, if not one of the best RPGs on the system but came out so late in the systems life that it was overshadowed by the PS2. V is one of the most unique games out there but is rather polarizing between the people who like it and the people with shit taste

3's alright but it aged miserably the people who say it's best probably haven't played much else

Between BoF4 and 5 I like to think the other games fall somewhere in between.

BoF2 is the most popular one but since the current /vr/ are mostly people grown up on PS you expect different answers. However, if you lurk old gamefaqs, facebook BoF page and fan art hosting sites, it is undoubtful that II is the most wide-spread one. It is generally considered it has the best story and characters in the series. Consider this.

Yeah, I definitely think it has the best cast and story.

It's a shame it has the flaws that it does. Poor translation, grindy at times, gameplay is pretty generic for the first half of the game. and the dragon abilities are pretty much pointless

The GBA port kinda fixes the grinding issue, but the translation is the same, and to my knowledge there is no retranslation patch.

Because of all that, I have a hard time putting it above 3 and 4, which I think are more polished as far as gameplay goes, and the translations are quite a bit better.

After replaying Breath of Fire 3 I now realize the entire game's storyline was just a giant fucking 'moral grey area'.

I mean, I kinda had that hint when Garr kinda questions whether or not what he did was correct, cause that was kind of obvious, but replaying it now I noticed there are so many more moments where the grey area comes into play that I overlooked when I first played it's almost ridiculous.

-Baby Ryu (defending his life) mercilessly slaughtering workers (just doing their job) in the mines trying to escape
-Rei, Teepo, and Ryu robbing people to feed themselves and survive
-Same trio killing the Nue, a monster which was basically just doing the same thing the trio was doing for its young which actually died quite a long time ago
-Garr slaughtering the Brood, neither party was in the wrong
-The player forced to make the choice of killing the Mutant Plant, which has done nothing inherently wrong
-The player forced to make the choice of whether or not to keep Palet's Mother alive
-Ryu having to straight up kill a fucking camel so Nina won't die in the desert even though it's their only means of returning if they ever get ultimately lost in the desert.
-The King justifies Ryu being the reason Nina left the castle for so long and doesn't like him, Nina however has other plans other than being Princess even though it's technically her responsibility.

I haven't replayed BoF4 yet, but I'm sure the storyline is pretty much like that as well, I dunno.

Aside from all the obvious shoutouts to the player to make this more obvious, like Garr questioning Myria's intentions and Jono outright saying that neither Myria nor the Brood is evil or wrong, the developers really did go the extra mile putting in even more shit that people will probably overlook cause they just wanna play the game, but shit man.

Also you can just straight up steal from pretty much every home you enter, standard RPG stuff yeah but hey that fits the grey area too I guess.

There's probably even more shit too that can fit the list but there's just way too many to name off the top of my head.

Gonna continue, haven't played in a few days thanks to GTA5 coming out. But I wasn't lying when I said I will finish this! Currently the game story is kinda slow again though.

Last time I left off I was at a fishing spot near Lyp, after sailing the ocean. Gonna try fishing now.
