It stands up to the other classics like dragon quest and final fantasy, yet it is often overlooked

Dunno, it's always been one of my favorites, and it's always annoyed me that it doesn't get any representation in Capcom's crossover games.

I've just played the first 2 hours of BOF2 long time ago and I dropped it cos the story is just didn't make sense. Will the story get better?

First one was a classic with a great soundtrack, second one never beat, third one I bought but never started on.

BoF3/4 were two of the best games of all time.

Played BoF 4 and did not like it at all. Theres puzzles with random encounters so tou forget what you were doing halfway through. Characters barely talk to each other and have no chemistry, they all feel like emotionless robots.

I went on to play the suikoden games afterward and it was a big improvement.

ha, Im playing suikoden for the first time right now. It is pretty good, I would say its about on par with BoF, but i hear suikoden 2 is something really special

I wouldn't say it's underrated. It's just that the third one is the only really great one. The fourth was good, but not great.

So, the series as a whole gets overshadowed by other games that standout more for one reason or another. Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Shin Megami Tensei, Suikoden, Xenogears, Lunar 1 and 2, Tales of, etc. Trying to limit it to games that were around when Breath of Fire was relevant.

I know, right? It was refreshing to not make it a good vs. evil thing, necessarily.
