Breath of Fire was one masterpiece of an RPG! It was chock full of more features, interesting dungeon design, boss fights, and other fascinating facets than almost any RPG I'd played before. Aside from creative dungeons with rotating floors, teleporters, disappearing walls, and other bizarre phenomena, BoF had sidequests galore (many in which you'd earn powers to transform your characters), ultra-tough bosses, and even a deep dark well-kept secret that was your key to getting the best of the multiple endings.
BoF also had an interesting plot with charming and colorful characters, and fun 'mini-games' like hunting animals with Bo and setting up a shop with Gobi. It's a shame that BoF2 was basically BoF1 with everything that made BoF1 fun taken out of it.
