Will never get a collection award
I've just finished 1 today. It was shit. I will skip 2 and start 3 in a few days.
>>7368614631 is like the most basic bitch JRPG in existence. 2 at least adds the Shaman system.
>>736862109And Katt
>>7368614632 is cool you shouldn't skip it. It also has the best Nina
The series failed to capitalize on cat butts
>>736861463>I hated this good game, I will skip the best one and skip to another bullshit PS1 JRPG with convoluted and shitty mechanics and bad minigames fucking retard lmao
>>736860629>Will never get a collection award
>>736863549Sorry broski but its too problematic for current jewtendo.
>>736863471>BoF3 is now shitFinally we can be honest and truthful about this video game
>>736862109BoF1 and 2 really should’ve had a dash button, FF5 came out before this series and that game had a dash function albeit if you had one of your characters as a Thief.
>>736863010Does she wear panties?
>>736860629For real, why not? Capcom has been on a huge porting spree since SFV's nostalgia DLC flopped, because they don't want the various brands being forgotten. Yet we wouldn't even have IV on PC if it weren't for GoG. Just from a business perspective I'm confused. Is it because it's on NSO?
>>736863836don't ask silly questions ofcourse not
>>736863748I certainly dropped it after beating those horses that turned into Ultraman. Really fucking stupid. I don't care what the /v/ consensus is
>>736862109I prefer 1 myself. never played the rest of hte series.
Out of stupidity and curiosity, I'm playing the SNES version with the War of the Goddess re-write hack and the GBA port. I'm enjoying the rewrite. There's a little more sauce to the dialogue. The original localization version is dry as fuck.
>>736860629I fully expect Viewtiful Joe to get a collection before Breath of Fire. I fucking hate Capcom. >>736864045They already have a more successful jrpg in Monster Hunter Stories. MHS2 selling a shit ton killed any hope of BoF making a return.
>>736865419mhs is a monster collectorbof is an actual true to form jrpgthey're not the same
>>7368614632's plot and endings are very good imo>>736864180you should retake it. I liked it after that segment, everything gets more interesting
Kinoest jrpg.
>>736865521Tell that to the suits. To them it's much more valuable to make a monster hunter spinoff.
>>736865615>ESRB rating: EBoF2? Really? How did it get it?
>>736865615the fishing was absolute bliss
>>736860629They'd be forced to spend money re-translating the first two games (ESPECIALLY the second game due how much of a botch job it was).
I played BoF1 and 2 recently. I'm not a big JRPG guy and I must say, these games are basic as fuck, but the music is really fucking good.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTgiK14UGJsI don't know how they did it but this song syncs up so perfectly with how you walk around the village in the intro as a child.
>enemy leader is literally Zoghow did they get away with this?
>>736865718they played like the first 20 minutes of the game back then. seems like wholesome christian game at that point.
>>736865907Is there a preferred fan translation for 2?
>>736865998In japanese it's zorgon.
>>736861463Skipping one and starting with two was the best decision I made while playing the games.4 > 3
3 > 2 > 4 >>> 1
>>736865718ESRB ratings weren't as strict back then
>>736865615BoF2 will never be topped as a jrpg
If they ever do a collection, 1 and 2 needs enhancements and features like Starforce got. At the very least, a dash button like the rom hacks. A new translation would be great, but I doubt they would ever commit to that much.
What's the modern way to play Breath of Fire 1 and 2? Is it still available anywhere? Steam port?
>>7368614632 is worse, so you're making the correct choice.
>>7368614631 is great but very basic, 2 is the best.2 > 4 > 3 > 1
all the BoF games feel like prehistoric trash considering that FF 4-7 games were coming at the same time and they are better in every single regardi played 2 and i feel i wasted 40hrs of my life, what a piece of shit game, glad that Capcom stuck to action games instead
>>736865718It's translated so poorly no one even knew what was going on.
>>736868930I think theyre both on the Nintendo virtual console or whatever, 1 is for sure.
>>736868930SNES with the Maeson mod was pretty nice, i think the last actual port was just the GBA versions
>>736869505BoF2 is better than any FF, but so is Lufia2. No FF is even top 5 of the time.
>>736870228>LufiaI never see threads for these two games, they were great
>>736870171They are, that's where I played them.
>>736870638/vr/ has them pretty consistently.
>>736869505FFniggers need to be castrated and marched through the streets holly shit.
>>736870712I don't usually leave /v/ and /vg/ all the other ones feel like dead boards.
>>736869505KILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGSKILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGSKILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGSKILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGSKILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGSKILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGSKILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGSKILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGSKILL ALL FFAGS>KILL ALL FFAGS
>>736869505stop shill you're dead troon serie
>>736870852Ok, well enjoy never talking about Lufia I guess.
>>736870927There aren't any Lufia threads on /vr/ right now either
>>736870980Be the change you want to see in the world.
>>736870852I genuinely couldn't imagine only using /v/ nowadays. I would probably kill myself if I spent more than half an hour on this board.>muh dead boardsAs opposed to dead boards flooded with utter bullshit diarrhea? Nothing wrong with a board moving slow, it's not like you have to hang infront of the computer screen all day.
>>736860629I am playing 3 for the first time what were they thinking with that lighthouse - to the Dragon temple section complete fucking filler of the highest order with not just one but THREE fucking boss fights back to back, I have just gone back to the plant again after the timeskip but I gotta be honest anons I am losing motivation, Momo best girl btw
>>736860629wow the bar is so low that no-one even dreams of getting a new game, they're so pessimistic that they don't even think they can get a collection
>>736860629Meh
>>736860629The only games I want to get a collection are the Romancing SaGa games, because the Steam versions are based on the mobile ports and not all the SNES ROMs have quality fan translation patches. If I can play the originals in my language and there isn't some game-breaking bug that can't easily be patched out I have no need for a $30 ROM collection
I wish Capcom would do a large console collection like SEGA did. They only do segregated genre collections and even then it's only a handful of titles, and even then they split those in volumes. The only times they've done a huge compilation, it's for their arcade titles.
>>736860629that's fine I own them all except 6>>736861463>>736862109>>736865935>>7368678671 was a fantastic game. A played straight JRPG is fine. Sometimes you want to be the chosen one whose village was torn to shreds kicking the shit out of the bad guy with your attractive female party member and saving the world. >>736865718They don't care about religion and from what I remember there wasn't any blood or gore. No one gave a shit about characters showing skin back then as long as they weren't talking about or having sex. Hell, if they were talking about sex and were subtle enough, it was fine.
>>7368688141 and 2 gave GBA ports, and it seems every GBA emulator has a speedup button, which is the same thing as a dash except for making the music speed up.
1 and 2 are some of the most barebone, generic fantasy games I think I have ever had the misfortune of playing. The worldbuilding is complete trash due to ass localizations making everything generic, unless the originals are like that too in which case I have to question japan's sense of taste (though they liked dq so I guess that's why).3 and 4 look absolutely beautiful but on the whole the gameplay is still quite generic. It's around suikoden tier.
>>736877983the mobile "ports" are remakes with enormous improvements and all the bug fixes and new content. Just pirate them.
