I have nothing intelligent to say I just wanna kick open your door and yell about how important to my gaming and fannish life the Breath of Fire series is and how utterly stroked I am that you also like them,
hell yeah another breath of fire fan!
the first one was far and away the most formative for me but i also loved the second one. the only snes game to make me feel real visceral horror in multiple places and also manage to make me cry like a baby, terrible translation and all
somehow in the shift to next gen i lost track of the series and never played 3 which is kind of wild considering its reputation? but i managed to snag a copy some years back and despite my best efforts i still have yet to beat it because the fishing minigame is just too damn addictive and it keeps derailing me. one day i will complete my roadtrip to go meet god and find out why she genocided my family (i mean. considering who she is, i can certainly guess!)
anyway it's so rare for me to meet a fellow bof fan, it's awesome to hear you like it too! i wish it wasn't essentially a dead series now, it was such a unique game with a lot of interesting features i haven't seen in other games. plus seeing each successive game showing less and less magic in the world, how each ryu and nina are weaker than the last and can do less and less with their powers than the previous ones, the old gods being forgotten and dying out, technology replacing spirituality more and more... man. there's just something about it
