Why did it filter FFsnoys so fuarking much? It easily mogs the entire Final Faggotry series.
>every jrpg failing is because of the monolithic FF audience and not the game itselfthe people who dislike cross are CT fans you fucking dumbass
>>719522594I miss when you could talk about stuff on the internet without this kind of retardation.
Wtf were they thinking?
Make sure you reject Kid three times at the beginning of the game to get Leena (permanently missable)
>>719522594>Horrible and convoluted story>Terrible gameplay>A ton of badly written and irrelevant characters>Overrated soundtrack: everytime someone posts a ost, the music is so-so at bestI never played Chrono Trigger by the way, but had the displeasure to play this slop.
>>719522594Does it? Plenty fans of FF and other RPGs seem to like this game. >>719523080>terrible gameplayHaving no Mana automatically makes the combat system better than most RPGs
>Every JRPG thread has FFshills/AntiFFfags now>Every JRPG thread needs to constantly bring up how terrible/better Final Fantasy isJESUS FUCKING CHRIST DO WE NEED TO BRING UP FINAL FANTASY IN EVERY FUCKING THREAD?!?!?
final fantasy living rent free in your head
>>719522594Played this for the first time a month ago. Really enjoyed it, although I'd be lying if I said I understand half the plot. Probably doesn't help that I've never played Chrono Trigger. Also, I love Harle
Even though the plot is convoluted so many of the concepts are so cool to me that I don't really care about being on Balthazar's Wild Ride the entire time
>>719522989I reject Kid just because of her Aussi accent
>>719522696>>every jrpg failing is because of the monolithic FF audience and not the game itselfThis is unironically true in the west because there's an entire generation of people who learned what a JRPG is from FF7 and anything straying from its formula/aesthetic was considered shit. Think about how the average P5babby tourist views 90% of all jrpgs (tedious dated problematic anime shit) and magnify that by 100x and you understand the kneejerk response that non-FF jrpgs got from FF7 fanboys throughout the late '90s and '00s.
>>719522594You can't literally lose in this game.
>>719525216>tedious dated problematic anime shitPersona players of all people are not concerned about problematic anime shit. There's more "problematic" stuff in P5 than in any 90s JRPG.
>>719522594>pointless team sportsI like bothUpset?Angry?
>>719522928GRRRR...DAMN BRAT
>>719522594Not with those battle themes.
>>719524243not even the developers understood fully what they were writing so I wouldn't worry about that as long as it was funa fun experience, rough edges and all
>>719522594I've started CC like 4 times and have never finished it. It's just... not that great, anon.
>>719526939I finished it when i was younger and retried it recently. It took 2 hours before i could to the first save point.
>>719522989And make sure you say the right things to the Leena who's actually your girlfriend at the beginning of the game.
>>719522594Final Fantasy games (and Chrono Trigger itself) are largely railraoded, cinematic story games where the RPG mechanics are extremely braindead easy and so fans tend to have a hard time adapting to games where you actually have to think.
>>719527345I like how every guide lies about that element giving auto revive when it doesn'tI'm willing to be proven wrong with evidence though
>>719527235>It took 2 hours before i could to the first save point.How the hell did it take you two hours to get through the opening sequence? That took me around 10 minutes on my very first playthrough.
>>719527563What does that have to do with Chrono Cross?
>>719527563You never played them.Fucking FF5 is right there also
I like the art style of this game way more than Trigger.
>>719522594I simply don't like RPGs with a billion different recruitable characters but you can only use 3 at a time and then everyone else is perpetually under leveled/undergeared.
Here's your challenge: narrow the playable cast of Chrono Cross down to the size of a standard JRPG (6-10 members). Lynx is a freebie for obvious reasons.

>"FUCK HUMANS THEY RUIN EVERYTHING IF THEY WEREN'T AROUND EVERYONE ELSE ON THE PLANET WOULD BE ABLE TO LIVE IN PEACE AND HARMONY">"heehee lets lock this fairy in a cage and feed her to the octopus monster. it'll be funny"
>>719522594It didn't filter FF fanboys.It filtered Chrono Trigger fans.Because the CT sequel wasn't a CT sequel and played nothing like CT and had very little similarities at all to CT.It's a fine game on its own.
>>719533849They deserved genocide
>>719533945The first paragraph really made me think you were serious.Good bait
>>719524150Both FFschizos and anti-FFschizos have never played anything other than Final Fantasy, ironically so in the latter case. Just like Nintendo vs Sony "discussion", that's what happens when you're too autistic to open up to new experiences.
>>719524243I remember people thinking that Kid & the clown where the same character for years
>>719534080When I played it for the first time, I guessed that Harle was Kid from an alternate timeline / dimension or whatever.
>>719522594>FFsnoysWhy are you sonyfags calling everything snoy?
>>719529470Easy, the ones I actually used which also have story significance.>Serge/Lynx>Kid>Harle>Guile >Razzly >Radius>Fargo>Starky>Leah >Sprigg
>>719523080You forgot:-Atrocious localization, the first one Richard Honeywood ruined with his "wacky accents".And yeah the music is hit n miss. Mitsuda's obsession with awful irish folk music really started to get obnoxious with this game, and the battle theme is one of the worst in the genre.
>>719534169You know nothing about Toriyama.
>>719525216Pic-related literally was blown out for not being "final fantasy" enough blasted western journeysThe QTs were a real killer though sometimes
>>719524243>I'd be lying if I said I understand half the plotThe writer/director masato kato said himself in an interview that it doesn't make any sense, and not to worry about it.
>>719534279Odd.I hate Chrono Cross, but I think its soundtrack is brilliantAlmost an FF8 situation with that
>>719534279Yeah, God forbid the dialogue has personality. Localizers should make every one of the 45 playable characters talk in the exact same way with no variation.
>>719534465So true, xister, why can’t these games promote eating the rich and taking down capitalism?
>>719533945>>719534587>Mary SueKid isn’t a Mary sue because only a protagonist can be a Mary sue
>>719529470>huge cast of party members >can only take two into battle Where they expecting you to replay the game? Is there a NG+?
>>719534738>Is there a NG+?Yes, and multiple playthroughs are the only way to collect all the playable characters.
>>719534929And then you have Jarin Jove who claims that Serge is Janus, even though Gil was always supposed to be Janus.
>>719527570Saints?
>Bodyswap with Lynx>oh cool i get a scythe now>Nope, after that one battle you go back to Serge's bladed oar thing.The absolute worst thing about the game.
>>719529470GlennGuileHarleIrenesKarshKidRadius
>>719535419Why would Serge suddenly know how to fight with a scythe?
>>719533926>Because the CT sequel wasn't a CT sequel and played nothing like CT and had very little similarities at all to CT.You forgot the part where it also invalidates all of chrono trigger retroactively.
>>719535775Sequels tend to do that.
>>719524243The ending where she brings flowers to Serge’s grave after humanity has been wiped out cements her as best girl.
>>719535775>>719535823It doesn’t do that
>>719535861It does in the sense that there's now a BIGERER threat but it's a dumb thing to complain about.
>Be Masato Kato>working on Chrono Trigger>want to kill off main cast>get denied>wait to make sequel >kill off Trigger cast in it and do everything else you wanted to do in Trigger but couldn’t >get put in charge of every re-release of Trigger because none of the other creators give a damn anymore >add a bunch of stuff just to set up your sequel which you like moreI seriously respect it
>>719535567Because he's inside lycns body?
>>719530194>not irenes
>>719535963 Yeah, it's the classic JRPG sequel power creep. "Oh no, Lavos isn't the real threat, the real menace is… fate AI ghosts and timeline schizophrenia!" It's dumb, but kinda endearing in that PS1-era overreach way. At least it tried to swing big, even if it tripped over its own themes and landed in a pile of parallel dimensions and dead kids.
