  • Did anyone else get Breath of Fire IV?

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 12pt Modern; text-align: left; '>...at least when it comes to "old school" RPGs. The game seems like you're perfectly normal RPG, nothing special but doing your average RPG stuff adaquatly. I usually eat these types of games up but I just didn't get any enjoyment out of it. Maybe I'm just getting tired of the same old RPG system or maybe the recent "old school" RPGs I've played actually had a plot I actually find midly engaging and could look past the same old mechanics or weaknesses a game might have. But I found the plot of the game pretty damn unengaging and forgettable after about the 4 hours I played of it. At that point I just gave up on it.</div>

No idea what happened here. Sine updated the database, forum software, and server, so the fact it looks like only one post went wonky is pretty good heh

You can blame me for this one. The posts populated weird for me, and I replied to this as a joke, full well knowing it was nearly 20 years old =P

Also because my response is accurate to the truth, I DO plan on playing it on my slimline PS2 sometime soon.

Oh shit! I had no idea your place got caught up in that (or maybe I did and stupidly forgot). Was it where you were living at the time? Your parents' place?

And yeah, I still have the silver slimline - I believe the final version of the console. Back then Sony tended to release crappy model 1 consoles, but their final models were surprisingly resilient. My PS1 model still works as well. Although, honestly, I usually play PSX games on Vita when I do play them these days; but Breath of the Wild 4, I would have bought it for NOTHING if I don't actually play the disk - multiple other people have finished my copy, I have yet to play it for even a minute.
