Breath of Fire III is the first installment of the Breath of Fire Series to appear on the Playstation (And later ported to the PSP).
Set free by the the workers of Dauna Mine, Ryu of the Brood learns to both understand his power, and to understand the history of his extinct kind. By both utilizing Ryu's unique power and the abilities of those whom assist him, players will uncover the history of the Brood, learn more about the characters, and the very reason why the Brood were wiped out.
Players control Ryu and his allies on their journey, each of Ryu's friends have abilities only they can use, and they will have to work together to make their way through the obstacles and enemies that they encounter; creativity is key to your success in this game!
Ryu eventually is able to utilize his power of the Brood, allowing him to ascend into various dragon-like forms. This is done using a gene-splicing system that dictates what sort of form Ryu will take.
Breath of Fire III also includes a Master System, which permits Ryu and his allies to learn from various people to augment their abilities differently as they gain experience; these trainers can also teach abilities to those whom train hard under them.... (more)(less)

""Like the games before it, Breath of Fire III may be a little too comfortable with presenting the J-RPG essentials we’ve come to know and love. There are only a couple of areas where the game takes any kind of calculated risk but recreating that old-school magic of yesteryear was what Capcom was aiming for. Perhaps this is why the game has aged so well over the years, almost like a fine wine.""

"Capcom. Capcom. 1998.
Ported to PSP in Europe.
Sequel on PS1.
BoF3 is when Capcom really stepped the story up a notch. You have death, betrayal, and a little romance after 2 (pretty good) cliche adventures. Little Ryu's voice is adorable "EE DEE WOO!". The random battles get on your nerves a bit, but it's par for the course when it comes to older RPGs. I love games where the characters age, so this one has a special place in my heart."

"While I am a hater of silent heroes, this game does it well. It also is less about saving the world and more about growing up. You start off as a child, and you follow Ryu (the MC's) journey to discover who he is and where he comes from."
"Synopsis
Populated by both humans and anthopomorphized animals, the world is experiencing several scientific advancements thanks to the discovery of chrysm, a rare mineral with magical properties found on the fossilized remains of dragons.
While higher forms of technology such as robots and complex machines do exist, their origin is largely unknown, with most of the objects in question washing ashore on various beaches around the world. Much of the game's plot involves finding the truth about "

I read the article on it and saw all the visuals which were so bright and cartoonish it seemed like a dream. I got the game at Christmas and moved through it so quickly that the first chpater was over in an hour or so.
Luckily the game had so much more to it. Following Ryu and his companions across the world in search of answers was a whirlwind journey which sadly has never been replicated again.
The Masters system was a favourite concept to the game. I found myself not wasting any levels on characters without them learning new skills from a Master.
