Breath of Fire III turned 28 the other day.

How best can I celebrate this momentuous occasion?
>>
Remember that survey they put out the other year asking which game or series we'd most like to see remade? I voted Breath of Fire, I hope you all did as well. I wonder if there is any chance of that happening...
>>
>>3843393
The new Yakuza stuff they're doing is making money, so maybe they'd be willing to revisit their old RPG franchise.

Fond memories of playing this when it came out, bumping the beastie boys “hello nasty” on the boombox

The spritework for this game was amazing. 4 was peak as well but it loses points for being unfinished.
>>
>>3843603
How so?

>>3843608
The western release was missing a skill or two due to the rushed translation, and obviously Yuna's extended death scene was cut. Minor nitpicks really, whether you consider 3 or 4 to be the peak of the series is a matter of personal preference. Just ignore the 2fags who only consider their game the best because they want to fuck Katt.

Breath of Fire II was just great for the story and how much it improved on the first game. I have such fond memories of it but III and IV are also amazing. I want to see all four get love, full remakes, staying turn-based, added masters, dragon genes in III, different Shaman combos in II, maybe a way to recruit Teepo in III, end-game with hard dungeons and superboss fights.

A lot of people did. It was third in the remake category and tenth most popular game overall.
They also highlighted this absolutely based comment.

Not exactly a high bar to clear. For all the cool shit the series did, Breath of Fire 1 was about as basic a bitch game as it gets.

That's what makes it great.

BoF1's best part is its theme song Toshi did.

Where is that image from?
>>
>>3843679
That's good though. It was simple and effective and can be built upon. The artwork was beautiful and it has so much damned potential. You fuse characters with the hero even in the first game, that's not basic. It's awesome.

I voted for BoF and asked for a 1-4 collection

Nina wasn't THAT bad was she? Magic does plenty of damage for a normal playthrough. Unless you were planning to beat Berserkr and Archmage (and who even does this more than once) Breath of Fire 3 was far from being difficult enough to warrant minmaxing. Just give her Mind Sword and some support abilities from skill ink and she's a fine party member all the way up to Deis.
