The opposite. BoF 2 had a far more mature plot and more thought provoking themes than the first game. The problem was that it was handled by Capcom's shitty in house translators instead of outsourced to Squaresoft like the first game, and the English script ended up as a hilariously childish garbled mess. They couldn't even be assed to fix it for the GBA port.

>> No.2980841

>>2980503
Man, that looks good. BoF should have just stuck with what IV injected into it and evolved into a JRPG series with heavy far Eastern mythology and aesthetic. DQ should have been the experiment it was with a different branding entirely and VI simply should not have existed.

Why is Capcom so shit.

I finished 3 about half a year ago and loved it. Rei's words to the final boss were perfect. Also, I named the protag "Roy" to distinguish him from the more eastern-looking Ryu in 4.

Anybody notice that Momo's little automaton says "Oy Vey" when you crash your little boat into the Black Ship? You have to talk to the little guy to see it, and I'm sure that's the only time it ever talked throughout the game. I thought that was a funny little nod indicating that the game takes place in the far, far future of a world like our own.

I had a very hard time beating the Zombie Dragon because I equipped the sword that you find in the same room as him, instead of the fire sword which hits his weakness. I loved the feeling of Accession in 3, accompanied by that scream. There's nothing like giving yourself a full HP bar by transforming, and then getting beat down more, and then using restoratives to trance again, and so on... one of the most exciting moments in any game I've played.

>> No.2982931

>>2982196
3 was my first. I had heard about being able to turn into a dragon, and was a little skeptical of that whole process, but I remember the first time I transformed into something other than a whelp. Oh fuck did that feel good. Everything else in the game is great. The system of having masters to gain stat boosts in certain areas more than others was a nice touch that I really liked. I wont go into any more details, but its definately a solid game.

I would say that it DID get right the quasi-lighthearted tone, character development, village building, fighting system (each character is unique), and story. Really wish there was more expandability to building your home village/base, because I just loved it so much.

>you play as him at regular intervals whenever Ryu is unconscious, much like the Laguna dream sequences in the equally disappointing Final Fantasy VIII. These sequences are extremely tedious and a lot more angsty and melodramatic

>many of the gameplay elements have been dumbed down or removed entirely. Those skills characters used to have that made them a crucial asset to making progress? Gone. A few of the characters still have skills they can use in the field, but none of these are crucial to advancing in your quest or plundering hidden treasures. Most of the dungeon puzzles where those skills came in handy are also gone. No longer is Breath of Fire chuck full of enjoyable puzzles the likes of Zelda. Now its dungeons are simply places to get into battles, like any other RPG.

>Also disappointing is Ryu's new means of transforming into a dragon. He still has to find pieces of chrysm with dragon genes inside them, but the dragon gene system is completely gone. Now, once you find a dragon gene, you can simply use it to transform into a.. no, not a dragon, just a scaly guy. That's right, a scaly guy with wings and chicken feet.

>Even graphically, Breath of Fire IV is a major step down. The new artwork is dull. The design of the world is a lot more generic, following more typical medieval and oriental motifs rather than the wonderful uses of culture the previous games in the series had.

Simply put, BoF4 throws away everything unique about BoF1, 2 and 3 which made the series memorable and great. It's an ultimately subpar generic RPG experience with the BoF name tacked on. The real BoF series ended with 3.

You know what someone needs to say it already.

FUCK THE GENE SYSTEM.

What the hell do you niggas thing you where actually doing with that? You weren't making unique dragons. You weren't doing someone creative.

All you did was Form + Element. It's the same shit from the previous games just with an extra step attached to it.

What's the real difference between opening your spell menu, picking the frost dragon and casting it immediatly and opening the menu, picking frost gene picking dragon form and then adding a filler gene whose skills you wont use at all.

The later is more work. The whole thing went to shit anyways once you got kaiser and myrmadon working.

Yeah 4 might have had less dragons but given how many of 3s where out right useless or never even seen Id rather take the smaller more useful bunch any day.

"Dogiga" has kind of a dual meaning, in this situation.

Giga is huge, and "do" (in hiragana or katakana) is sometimes used before a word to put added emphasis on it.

Something like "super huge" in this case.

Dogiga is also what the strongest wind/fire hybrid spell is called in Japanese, and those are explosive in nature.

Mega > Domega > Dogiga

So, super huge or explosive, take your pick.

Might have been the dungeon under Nina's castle. I always found that to be quite the plod, especially without Teepo and Rei.

I don't know if the games really are all THAT ground-breaking in terms of storytelling -- however, they really do a very solid job of codifying tropes at the time. It didn't need to be super-original, because it took other things that had been done before and polished them to a mirror sheen.

The story is one thing, how you go about telling it is another, right?

I thought they were pretty great. It was pretty rare for me to rent a game more than once from my local VHS store.

I really loved the random encounters traveling between areas, and hunting for the items in the semi-randomized spawns in those little bags. The campground stuff. The art, of course, amazing. The abilities and the stealing and whatnot. Gene system. The Examine and skill system.

Yeah. Pretty great stuff. Fishing minigames... though I could never get the beat right in 4. Just like in Mother 3.

Wish I could justify blowing the kind of time I used to grinding away at JRPGs.

Personally I have more free time now since I no longer have to study or do homework, but the idea of playing a game for a couple hours straight just doesn't enter into my mindset anymore.

Lots of this. BoF has long ass animations and a very high encounter rate. However I will add that for BoF2, if you know what you're doing, you can get way over leveled when you're only 1/4th of the way through the game and ride on that all the way to late game. This is pretty recommended because of how often you have to switch out party members you like for ones the game forces you to have, like Jean or Rand. Point is that there is a lot of grind but it's of the kind you can get out of the way early and then just stomp shit the rest of the game.

They're both antagonists, but I found Fou Lu a very interesting character. Sephiroth barely has any real character development at all. At least in FFVII. I haven't played or seen any of the new FFVII related stuff.

That they both have fanbases is irrelevant. I don't care what people other than me may or may not want to fawn over.

Both that and comparing the Fou Lu bits to the Laguna segments just makes it seem like you only played a tiny handful of RPGs and they all look the same to you.

I semi agree with you on the gameplay, but I didn't ever think the puzzles were great anyways. Everything else is just opinion. I think IV looks visually far better than III. The polugon bosses looked great and I love the music.

Turning into a Dragon in 5 is in fact the most fun, because it requires a real, psychological, emotional commitment from the player (weighed out in the number of hours they've invested in their playthrough,) in exchange for the absolutely devastating power you can get which almost certainly should end every single battle you use it on in a single a turn.

What you want is a superficial visual change that lets you sync up with the roleplay you want in your head. The actual mechanics of dragon changes in the third game are shit, more than half of them have no useful purpose in the game, and all of the ones you actually will use are the hybrid dragon form you claim to hate or the specific combinations that provide unique looking dragons which makes the gene system irrelevant, especially once you put them in a list which is exactly what the 4th game gives you.

This is the worst part of the game, especially if you're an Elixir holder type.

There's no reason to listen to the game. You should dragon form all the fucking time. It's great. You do it, and then you restart the game from your last save more powerful than before.

The combat besides that was great, and you couldn't grind like you can in normal jRPGs. It was refreshing to me at the time. Worst thing is how they told you not to use the dragon, but you really needed to.

Also, feel free to say why did some typo made you disregard the whole paragraph so bad. If it is because you are retarded out of you ignorance, thus not being able to parse any English other than the one in your everyday's life, or something else.

There are two main ways of beating the Absolute Defense barrier bosses;

the first is to use Ryu, in which case you will stack all your AP and party exp and whatnot on him, and mostly you'll either spam your strongest whatever attacks and think the game is bullshit, or you'll use the attack that deals damage in proportion to the amount of HP you've lost and actually have to figure the game out.

Shit maybe you can even work a combo in there to raise the damage multiplier.

The second way is to use Lyn, which is the way I prefer, because all you need to do is stack up your combo multiplier with her, working one of the vacuum combos into the chain, then blowout the rest of your AP on Shatter! which does more damage the closer you are to the enemy (as in like 400-600 damage.)

So no you don't really have to be autistic, you just have to have some sort of basic attentiveness and intelligence to be able to play the game properly.

It's not very common, but, nevertheless, you can't really bitch about one sole instance of non-straightforward English. Every_thing should be understandable.

A: Somehow not even remotely sexy.
B: "Somehow" has roots in you and its scope is just one interpretation.
Seek the reasons for it being "not even remotely sexy" inside of yourself, because no one else I know is thinking the same way. It's just your opinion, it changes nothing, and I am glad so.

Hey, you're not the only one. I thought the soundtrack of 1 was better and more epic than 2. Unfortunately >>3006339 is a bit right on the characters (even if I liked them more than the second), and the graphics were alright.

The exploration in BoF1 wrecks 2, though. Aside from the final dungeon in 2 (which sucks ass), everything's a bit too easy, and until you get the whale, the world maps a bit more limited, too. In BoF1, once you got Bo, there was a hell of a lot more to explore.

The character and story in BoF2 (along with the city building, the shaman system, etc) makes up for it all though.

Here's something that has bothered my about BoF2. Every time I've made it to the spot where Shin the Devil Shaman is supposed to be (left entrance of the final dungeon) she is never there. This happened the first time I played through the game almost 20 years ago... and I remember following the strategy guide I had to the letter and no Shin. This completely killed my drive to complete the game so I ended up setting it down for a while. At some point I picked it back up and started a new game and made it back to the same exact spot and no Devil Shaman yet AGAIN. This time I followed some FAQ from the internet and got the same result. So I guess my question is... how do you get her to appear? Is there something I did (or didn't do) that would trigger her to not show up? Played on the original cart. Suppose there is an extremely small chance that I got a bum cart or something?
