Welcome to the Breath of Fire I & II topic.
Feel free to post any doubts, riddles or anything else.

Well, I kinda fell through on 1 and in 2 I couldn't get past the door with the musical sounds thingy.

[Lord Chainsaw]

Breath of Fire is pretty good.

Breath of Fire II is one of the finest games ever made. The re-release of it on the GBA was one of my happiest moments in gaming.

And I don't quite remember a door with musical sounds. Was that in I or II?

[Wuggly Blight]

breath of fire 2 was awesome, I love that little game *sobs* So cool...

[Jolts]

I started on BOFIII, and never really got into BOF or BOFII, sorry.

I thought it was kinda' funny how BOF had that magician guy speaking jumbled up magic of "hocus pocus, alakazam!" (I'm pretty sure it was BOF, might've been BOFII, though...funny either way).

It was torwards the end of 2 after the ?evil forest thingy? It was 5 years ago and hard to remember exactly where it was. I'll look into it.

[Sephex]

I liked one, but never tired two. My friend who liked one a lot said two was kind of a let down to him. That never motivated me to try it.

[Ryu Zero]

I've cleared BOF2 and got only to Winland in BOF...
Does that musical door exist in the first BOF or did i forget anything from the second?

[DeBlayde]

I really liked BoF I, but there were too many random encounters. they got very very tiresome after a couple hours. marble3 was my friend.

[Sacred Phoenix]

I loved BoF 2, it just got frustrating with too many random battles IMO.

[WarZidane]

I never really got into BoF. I've tried the first 4 games, and got the furthest in BoF I, barely started III before getting bored
I think i got pretty far in II too, and to some huge plains in BoF IV

I couldn't find where I was talking about in a walkthrough. It was after you got grandpa and went inside the tree in the forest. I'm not sure how much farther though. I remember finding an island where the church was based at.

[Lord Chainsaw]

Yes, that is Evrai, the Grand Church of St. Eva. There are a total of two assaults on that place in the game, the first is probably the point in the game at which you are at.

If you've already done the inside of the Tree, that means you've received the Bolster Pillow from the Tree. After you have the pillow you need to go to Tunland and use it to shrink and enter the queen's body.

The game really shines at the end. That's where the story unfolds, and it is simply a remarkable experience I have never had duplicated on the SNES. A certain sermon in the Grand Church is one of my favorite video game scenes of all time. Amazing what such an archaic game can do.

[theundeadhero]

Sadly, I got rid of the game years ago.

I would say that BoF I and II are good games, but III and IV are excellant games. The graphics were pretty good for the time (at least for III, IV's graphics were a little behind the times), the game play was great (the gene splicing in III was a ton of fun and in IV you got to do lots of different things with the dragons) and the Master system allowed you to customize your characters. I took 2 of the slowest characters (read really strong) and made them really fast. So I ended up with 2 really strong and fast characters. The games were great. If you haven't played them give them a chance.
