They escape the Fou Empire soldiers and make their way back to Cray. Fou-Lu reawakens, being cared for by a man named Bunyan. They fight, and Fou-Lu is forced to turn into a dragon and try to escape, saying he has to find his other half: Ryu. Yohm manages to overpower him again, though, and Fou-Lu falls, crashing into the forest. Ryu, Nina, and Cray continue to travel on their quest, but they keep coming across Rasso, who really seems to be after Ryu.
They escape him again, but continue to run into other troubles. The game ultimately follows Ryu as he helps search for Elina while also trying to figure out who he is, how to stop an angered Fou-Lu from endangering the world, and what to do about potentially being a god.
The only Breath of Fire game to retain the subtitle in the English release although Japan did keep the Roman numeral, making it Breath of Fire V: Dragon Quarter the fifth entry in the series was released in for the PlayStation 2. Dragon Quarter is vastly different from every other game in the Breath of Fire franchise. Also, the game is designed to be replayed multiple times. With the Scenario Overlay SOL system, there are plot points that can only be accessed if a certain stat is high enough.
Since everyone in the world of Dragon Quarter , the people with higher D-ratios and therefore, higher social status live towards the top of the underground bunkers, closer to the surface.
Those with lower D-ratios are forced to live roughly a kilometer underground. High status people live closer to the top because the air is better there. For those unlucky enough to be at the bottom, the air is stagnant and polluted.
The plot of Dragon Quarter begins with Ryu, as a low-level citizen, deciding to rebel against his government and escape to the surface with Nina, who is unable to survive underground. Nina and Ryu work their way to the surface, fighting enemies and monsters along the way, accompanied by the extremely watchful Lin. There are also two big subplots that help drive the story forward.
One is about the six rulers of the underground world. They have an incredible ability to get and then act on information of all kinds. The other subplot is about a self-centered jerk named Bosch.
Not everyone knows about it, but there was indeed a Breath of Fire 6! Oct 31, 14, Deleted member User requested account closure Banned. Oct 28, 23, Three for sure. Four second. Dragon Quarter third. I wish the first two games received better localizations..
Amauri14 Member. Breath of Fire IV. The characters and story were great. And its music and aesthetics amazing. Oct 27, Breath of Fire 1 holds up pretty well IMO. Been playing that on and off via the Switch Nintendo Online Ngl, I think the save states help me enjoy it more. BoF 1 was one of my favorite rpgs as a kid.
But BoF 4 is for sure my favorite in this series. Sublime sprite art, great soundtrack, great villain. I also am on team BoF V is a masterpiece.
While the design choice of having you replay the game from the start to get more powerful is at first annoying. Would love an HD port. Capcom pls. Last edited: Jan 25, Zool Member. Oct 28, 1, Such a clasic! Taruranto Member. Oct 26, 3, I'd say 3, easy answer. Oct 25, 7, Never played 3 or 4. Are they still worth playing today? Never got into the groove. Hippopuncher12 Member. Oct 25, 11, O-H-I-O. Oct 25, 65, I like 3 just a tiny bit more than 2.
IV has very high highs but it's also very boring for long stretches, and I just couldn't get into V, even though I respect it as the genesis of Dead Rising.
Oct 25, Iowa. III is one of my favorite games of all time. Nostalgia is probably the main cause for that one but the OST is something I still listen to regularly and I just find going through it to be comforting.
I actually played it recently and still find that it holds up well despite the fact that there are a lot of mini games to go through. I wish I still had Dragon Quarter so I could give that a proper shot as it flew over my head when it was first released.
I have the case still but no game. No idea what happened to it. Punished Dan Member. Breath of Fire IV is my favourite. Seven Force Member. Nov 30, 13, Playing it is like coming home. Dragon Quarter's probably one of the most meticulously designed games I've ever played, though. BoF IV also puts you in control of the main antagonist several times, giving a new perspective and revealing his motivations along the way.
But an improved combat system and revamped formation mechanic make it all worthwhile. Fishing, apprenticeship, and managing a Fairy Village all return in this installment as well. Nelson Chitty is a Venezuelan expat living in Argentina.
