This game is so boring. I thought v said it was good?

Is it nostalgia?

nobody on Yea Forums says this is good, unless you meant to post Xenogears in which you would be correct

It's good inb4 trigger is better

Game is great and only homosexuals don't like it

You do know JRPGs, especially the PS1 era ones, are kinda "boring" right? Hell, I'd say JRPGs only got worse.

Only SNES era JRPGs have held up IMO like CT and SMRPG

Sorry OP, you need a galaxy brain to properly enjoy CC. Maybe McTrigger is more your speed?

OST was top shit at least
youtube.com/watch?v=1_z3yLcVfsU

Trigger is better for being a chrono trigger. Cross is a good game not a good trigger game.

Only rpgs ive played are smt 3 and persona 3/4

OST is godlike, game is massively disappointing

>persona
sorry about your mental disabilities, bro. try out trigger and don't forget your grayons

I played Chrono Trigger for DS. Was the epilogue scene where the Masamune massacre occurs (presumably by Dalton) in the original game?

My favorite rpg

Name 1 (ONE) genuinely good thing about Cross that isn't the soundtrack.

The cast of characters, writing/story, looks amazing for the era it was made

Genuinely one o my favorite games besides CT - which if you prefer because of the 16-bit graphics or how speedy it feels because of cartridge loading, I can't blame you,

the battle system was neat

Trigger IS better, and I played it after Cross so you can't accuse me of being nostalgiafag.

>cast of characters
It was bloated as fuck to the point that they needed an automated accent program just to differentiate them.
>writing/story
If you're looking at the first half maybe. The later parts are convoluted as fuck and not only add nothing to the main cast, but also ruin the previous one.
It did its job, but there was nothing particularly good about it.

>and not only add nothing to the main cast, but also ruin the previous one.

Ah, so you're one of those people - the "SONIC'S ARM NOT FREAKIN' BLUE" types. Opinion disregarded

>blue arms are ok
Alright autism-friend.

Yes, and what they did with the CT's cast is fine.

Chrono Cross is great you fucking underage retard

Everything is a 10/10 except the characters & ending that suffer from lack of budget

Both are masterpieces so why hate on one when you can appreciate both

>the characters & ending that suffer from lack of budget

This is just gamer speculation and autism for cut content - reminds me of the complaints about Xenogears - I never felt this

>too many characters and some of them join you just because they are bored
>story is confusing for absolutely no reason
>''Hey, Kid. I am Serge, he is Lynx.'' ''I know, but I still want to kill YOU.'' (wtf!?)

It is, they planned on having 64 endings but had to cut them due to budget restraints. If they simply cut the number of characters down & developed a select few of them like they were in FF9 then it would be perfect

>It is, they planned on having 64 endings but had to cut them due to budget restraints.

Was that a design document bulletpoint or just speculation - akin to BSing, "well we woulda had 64 endings, but deadlines..."

You say that as if I'm automatically wrong. If you have a problem with my criticism, prove it wrong or stop being a whiny bitch.
If everything is 10/10, surely you can name at least a single part.

literally one of the best games of all time

It's just that I'm bored of arguing with your kind. You want it to be something that it isn't: Fan service dreck like Advent Children. Go jack off to FF7 and AC if you want your BASED CHARACTERS RETURN IN AN ALL NEW ADVENTURE!!!1 style wank sequel.

>best turn based battle system
>best time travel in just about any entertainment media (actually theories)
>beautiful aesthetic
>wonderful characters

Whether or not I want the original cast in a sequel is irrelevant, if anything I'm saying the opposite.
Cross should have been its own game or a spiritual successor to Trigger at the most. Shoehorning them into the plot just brings both games down.
>best turn based battle system
It's pretty damn simple once you get down to it and the pacing almost brings the game to a halt in certain areas.
>best time travel in just about any entertainment
I may be remembering wrong, but there was no actual time travel in Cross in the first place, just a parallel universe that split off like a cancer cell and a purgatory for paradoxes.
>beautiful aesthetic
Debatable, especially for dungeons and hardware limitations.
>wonderful characters
The clusterfuck of a plot ruins the main cast and the rest are barely written because of just how many there are.

two things and i'm done with you
>complicated means it's the best

>Shoehorning them into the plot just brings both games down.

Except it doesn't. The ways CC is a sequel to CT makes me love it even more.

As for the typical criticisms I hear, here's an example:

>Omg chrono died to dalton???

Google JFK. Google John Lennon. Google King Arthur, Merlin, Jesus, etc.

Typically important people in history die for no reason. There's no character arc or growth, they just die.

>but omg dey weren't epic like crono who can cast luminaire

And you made the mistake of confusing gameplay with storytelling. Crono is human, not a level 99 magic man.

>complicated means it's the best
No, it could just use some original mechanics that actually compliment the level design.
>pacing is story and plot related, has nothing to do with battle system
Gameplay has every bit as much to do with pacing as much as other elements, if you spend an uncomfortably long time in a single area battling, it's still shit pacing.
>i'm not talking to you anymore faggot
It's okay to just admit you give up because of shitty assumptions and preconceptions.
>Typically important people in history die for no reason. There's no character arc or growth, they just die.
How is that an excuse when writers have full discretion over what happens? It's meant to be compelling like all stories, not realistic.
You haven't explained at all why being a sequel is a good thing either.

this game is viewed as a classic around the world and nothing Yea Forums says will change that

Chrono Trigger has the problem that only the main characters time travel, despite all sorts of characters having, in principle, access to time travel. The deeper problem is, multiple time travelers makes a story dangerously nonlinear, and trying to do a JRPG of one faction of a time travel war would be totally incomprehensible.
Chrono Cross does about the only thing one can do, which is to tell the story of the last pieces of the time travel war falling into place, from the perspective of characters who are not themselves time travelers. This produces a story that's mostly incomprehensible, but that's still a big improvement.

I had it when it was new. The battles bored me to tears and I couldn't be asses to remember anything that happened. It's trash.

Skellington
Cat/bunny girl
Gay little alien

This game looked at FF6, thought of Umaro, Gogo and the phantom train ghosts, and the devs blurted out "lets do that, but with 20+ useless fucks that nobody will ever use!"

It's got a good aesthetic
collecting tons of party members and being able to use whoever you want was pretty cool (though admittedly a lot of party members aren't involved in the story whatsoever)
I thought the stamina/elemental field stuff in combat was pretty cool I guess

Its a better game than its predecessor and that makes people kinda angry about it.
I agree with those that say it shouldn't have been a Chrono game though. Wouldn't spared everyone the endless discussions.

I can't play this game because watching the opening makes me go fap to Schala.

combat, world design, the way optional party members are spread throughout the world(some guys like sparky who were entirely optional had more love put into their quests/story than some game's main characters), story and characters are all 10/10 tier(miguel's scene has been on Yea Forums for years as being not only a pleb filter gameplay wise but emotionally top, but you wouldnt know since you're new)

my only real gripe was that you could not recruit solt and peppor or riddel's husubando

>The clusterfuck of a plot ruins the main cast and the rest are barely written because of just how many there are.
confirmed for not playing the game

Yes it's nostalgia. People who like Cross also likes FF8. Really shit taste.

Who's the one drowning? Only other barefoot guy I can thin of is Korcha, but that foot looks too pale to be him.

>It's pretty damn simple once you get down to it and the pacing almost brings the game to a halt in certain areas.
How to say literally nothing 101. Why are all your arguments simple generalizations and truisms?

It is him.

It's korcha he's using BigCatch, fished up the fish, fell off the boat in surprise.
Here are his dumb bandage wearing feet for reference.

that actually blew my mind as a teen.
literally my favorite trope in vidya and it was included in my favorite game at the time. and the pacing of this game in general is just top.
I guess its time to replay it again
