Once upon a time I played Breath of Fire I and II and found them to be EXTREMELLY crappy. Not so long ago, I played BoF IV and was amazed by it. Now I got DQ for Christmas - sweet! The game's terrific! The story is great, so is the atmosphere and graphics. I like the gameplay - I like innovative stuff in games. Saving is punishing, though (in the PAL version especially, since there is no possibility to quicksave) and the D-Counter is frustrating, though I think it kind of makes you feel the, I dunno, stress? The urgency of getting to the surface quickly? I'm at the Mid-Sector Market and my D-Counter is exactly 31.00% (went a little berserk in the battle with the machine thingy Zeno had) - should I be worried?
Anyway, topic:
What do you guys think of this game and the Breath of Fire series overall?
