Breath of Fire IV
Beschreibung
In a far-away world, two continents float, separated by a vast swamp-land. For eons, no contact existed between the two continents because ships couldn’t sail across the expanse. At last, when the historic first contact was made between the two powers, war erupted!
After long and costly fighting between the Fou Empire in the west and an alliance of countries in the east, both sides exhausted all their strength and resources. With no other alternative, the two powers agreed to an armistice.
One year later, Princess Elina vanished. She had been traveling in the east from town to town, exploring battlegrounds and visiting war veterans. Her trail vanished in a small town near the front line. Nobody knew her whereabouts!
The Eastern Alliance wanted to avoid sending a large army to the front. Such a move would be a political blunder, breaking the armistice and stirring up hostilities. It became impossible to carry out a large-scale search for Elina. Time passed... with no sign of the princess.
Elina’s sister, Princess Nina, finally makes up her mind. She leaves on a journey in search of her sister – by herself.
Ryu
Ryu meets Nina while he is lying unconscious on a street in a desert town in the eastern continent. His race and native land are unknown. Ryu has a Dragon’s Eye, which empowers him with the amazing abilities to transform into a dragon and summon dragons.

Distraught, her sister Nina goes in search of the Princess alone and on her journey, meets a mysterious young warrior named Ryu. Their destinies soon entwine. The next chapter in the epic tale of magic and mystery now unfolds. The fate of what lies ahead rests in your control.

My favorite game
Thank you very much for this wonderful work, I am very happy with the memories I have of this game. I finished it the first time in Japanese, as soon as it was released, I drew the kanji and looked for the translation to do some more difficult quests. Thank you again.

BoF IV
Wow. This is an awesome addition! I played Breath of Fire IV back in the day, and it was pure blissdom. I place it among the best of the console RPGs I've ever played, among Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy Tactics, Parasite Eve, Shadowhearts and Xenogears. Never liked regular Final Fantasy series and the cutesy drama games much, as the list suggests. BoF IV walks the line perfectly, without getting too much into love stories and drama, while still not going all singleminded horror murder hobo on us. Opinions may differ. But that's my taste and that's why this game is great, for me. There is laughter, there is good plot, there is lovely game mechanics, good soundtrack, and fun adventures, and it never got boring once. A rare delight. If you are not too much into overenthusiastic drama, but want something that plays great while tells a cool story... May want to give this a whirl one day :)

The game that made me love games
I can't understate this - if I hadn't played this game, I would have never gotten so deeply involved in the world of video games. I would never have started developing my own games. I wouldn't have the same love for storytelling and RPG systems. Breath of Fire IV is a triumph, and absolutely deserves your attention as a masterful execution of the JRPG genre.

The very best JRPG
This is the apex of what pixel art could be. Ive never seen anyone doing an anime-like JRPG with so many frames as in this game. The mix between 3d and 2d made capcom the first to do the so called 2.5d today. The map is giant and we spend a lot of time in game, almost 35 hours just to beat the main story. We have the fishing game, as common in japanese culture. We have lots of things to collect, including transformations and different dragons. This game was so well written, not even 5 or 6 could match it. It was a mark in games industry and a shame they couldnt manage properly, as it could have become capcoms own final fantasy. Thank you for putting this game on store. This made my month.
