I can't bring myself to continue playing this. It's too dense. I made it to the golden city, where a thief keeps busting me out of jail.
I guess i have a long way to go right? I have more fond memories of BoF 2, i remember it being much more entertaining, even tough i haven't finished either of them.
You guys can still stomach this kind of gameplay? I sure cant anymore.

Breath of Fire games are some of the most needlessly drawn out games completely full of fluff that ever graced the SNES and PS1.
I wouldn't even bother with any of them desu. I think the only ones I would recommend are 4 and Dragon Quarter.
4 has some interesting mechanics and story, and DQ has really nice gameplay.
Multiple weeks without a BoF thread.
Now 2 BoF threads on the same day, on page 1 at the same time.

BoF1 is the weakest of all BoF games.
The bad translation and excesive backtracking do not help.

I played it when it was new and so didn't have the detriment of playing the later entries first. So, I've got some rosy nostalgia glasses that see this game as just fine and dandy.

All the Breath of Fire games are long and tedious, as well as heart wrenching and occasionally stomach turning in their subject matter, usually with a somewhat empty and lonesome ending that carries a deep indelible regret for the characters involved. It's hardly surprising that replaying them isn't a barrel of laughs or anything.
Except for Dragon Quarter
Dragon Quarter is completely different, it's punk rock af

True dat. IV was probably the most sobering experience I've ever had in a video game, tied with killing Phalanx on Shadow of the Colossus, especially sinceYuna, what with him being Mengele-meets-magic, gets away with all that shit. God, I hate that fox-eared motherfucker.
I've always really wanted to play Dragon Quarter, but can't find it for shit, and my computer is too much of a pussy to emulate PS2 games properly.

I always resented him for his dream dungeon. That place was the worst for my 10 year old self.
