I'm gonna review one of my favorite classic RPG game, Breath of Fire 4. Keep reading...
Breath of Fire 4 is a turn-based RPG, just like Final Fantasy Series, and Dragon Warrior. But BOF 4 is not an ordinary RPG game. There are a lot of elements that make this game special, here they are:
*The battle is very fun since you can combine some powerful combos into a powerful attack (you can even unleash more than 50 combos each turn in one battle) and you can also switch any characters along the battle.
*There are a lot of mini games in BOF 4, such as fishing, puzzles, secret dungeons and also secret bosses. (Compared to previous series, it's hard to find fishing spots, but the good news is, you will get a lot of items while fishing)
*This game has beautiful 2D graphics, from the forest, until the towns. They look soft and smooth. The characters and enemies also look great and amazing.
*There are a lot of skills to master. (unfortunately, most of them are useless)
Gameplay and Story
You play as Ryu who has power to transform into a powerful dragon. You will be accompanied by Nina and Ray who have mission to find princess Elina, the sister of Nina.
Different from most RPG in PlayStation Console, BOF 4 has two storylines at the same time. Along the game, you can control both of main characters, Ryu and Fou Lu.
This game is difficult to play. Especially when you fight the last boss, Fou Lu.
Just like Ryu, Fou Lu can also transform into a powerful dragon. By the way, Fou Lu is a very cool antagonist. (i like to compare him with Zell in Final Fantasy 8)
BOF 4 unique facts and secrets:
*It takes about more than 50 hours if you want to beat the games.
*These are the dragons you can get while playing the games: Kaiser, Behemoth, Mutant, Myrmidion, Wyvern, and Aura. Kaiser itself is the strongest dragon, but unfortunately you can't control this dragon.
*This is how to get the bad ending in BOF 4: join with fou lu in the final battle and then kill all of your allies.
*In Japan, BOF 4 released with title, "Breath of Fire IV: Utsurowazaru Mono"
*This game is also adapted into manga produced by Enterbrain Company.
If you are a classic RPG games collector, you should add BOF 4 to your list.
Thanks for reading my review...
Hello BOF 4 is one of my favorites games i played it a lot back when i was a teen.
ReplyDeleteIf i can give some advice..use an easier to read font...like arial maybe.
And a little bigger too, this is almost imposible to read on 1080p monitor unless you zoom in with the browser.
Also if you review BOF4 why do you use a FFVII: Crisis core picture??
I hope that helps, keep it up!
