Why do you dislike Chrono Trigger battle system?
You can stop trying to milk this "DBZ screencap edited to CT character" meme nowit died a long time ago
>>741796863and what's your plan?
>>741796668It was fine; game was just too easy, negating the need for much of the combat abilities
>>741796668>position-based techniques that are entirely dependent on whether the computer decides your characters will move into the right positions to use them/avoid themThis is the main reason I find it difficult to respect Chrono Trigger. There needed to be an option to move your characters around manually. But, if this had been implemented, it would have exposed how shallow the positioning mechanics really are since they only matter less than 5% of the time anyway.This would come full circle when Black Sigil did exactly that, to little avail as there was almost no time when moving your guys around on the field mattered.
>>741796668It's literally Final Fantasy but top-down.
>>741798045>Final Fantasy but top-down
>>741796668Chrono Niggas just need to play another rpg on the same system in Live-A-Life to see how to properly make a tilebased jrpg with active positioning.
>>741798265>Live-A-Life
>>741797801This. It's quite fun, but pretending that positioning matters is nonsense.
CT's battle system is just a paint job, it's really just ATB and you can just spam attack
>>741798461
>>741796668This game from 30 years ago is perfectly fine.
>>741796668Would ya look at me? I'm setting records.
>>741796668it's too easy. otherwise I think it's the best version of ATB yet, as it gives you an actual mechanical incentive to wait for turns to stack up. usually the FFs would just have a boss or two with counter stances you'd just heal during or wait out.
>>741802479that old kai wasnt kidding, the potara really is awesome!!!
>>741798651yeah it only really matters in the start, you quickly get full room AoE options later. neat gimmick but doesn't really do too much.
>>741802287based
>>741797448Flea is so beautiful.
>>741796668Minus multi-character techs, I think Star Ocean and Tales series have spoiled me on combat systems in RPGs. Hell even Parasite Eve has a better system.
>>741796668I don't.https://youtu.be/UDG39ug8Bpo?is=WGaoWzpm0o8sXhmo
>>741796668Magus gets gimped on party techs
>>741802826
>>741796668>Crono and Marle get done in by a porre firing squad and their nation falls>lucca gets assassinated and her home burnt down alongside the orphans she was fostering>Robo fucking dies right in front of you after exposition dumping>lavos returns somehowMagus is a little fuzzy because he might've been one of your party members in Chrono Cross, but the only trigger party members that had a good ending were ayla and frog because those two getting fucked up would've really messed up the timeline. Did the writers really hate the OG cast that much?
>>741796668Because
>>741796668besides visual effects the damage Techs/spells dont seem meaningfully differentbut overall its a good system
>>741806928>Did Masato Kato really hate the OG cast that much?ftfy, and yes. Enjoy Another Eden Begins, launching later this year!
>>741796668chrono nigger was never good,also, Toriyama artstyle was enver good
>>741807805them fighting words
>>741796668I don't. It's just right for me - it's not quite as brain dead as final fantasy or dragon quest's battle systems at the time (hold down attack until you win), but it's also not overly complicated either.
>>741806928iirc all that happened in the alternate timeline, so it's not necessarily what happened in Serge's original TL.
>>741807481>F2P>Mobileits gacha isn't it
Is there a jp version of this game that has easier to read text? or anyone know of an en release that has the original graphics but better legible text?
>>741811952I don't know,
>>741811952emulate snes version?
>>741814426text is too hard to read
>>741814643i think the steam/ds versions use a new texbox system so maybe you'll have luck there.
>>741806928What anon doesn't tell you, is that all of this happens into another timeline, the bad one, the one you're trying to fix not the original one, the one you return to by the end of the game.Such an conniving little faggot.
>>741796668I don't
>>741796668because it's shit on top of boring as fuck
>>741821614How is it shit?
>>741806623>Masamune looking directly at Flea’s girlcock
>>741796668I don't.Now what?
>>741822704nothing, I'm waiting for haters to explain themselves.
>>741806623This was the only boss I had trouble with. Probably because I couldn't spam Haste yet.>>741821614It's only boring now because other JRPGs copied everything from the story to the party members.
wait until they get the DQ II 2DHD treatment.
>>741796668Because in it positioning matters (which is good)but you can't reposition your dudes (which is bad)
>>741798265There is no game called Live-A-Life, and CT isn't tile based. Your melanin levels are significantly higher than your IQ.
you know what the next chrono game should feature? Gods or other deities like Dragon Ball introduces.
>>741796668I don't. It's fine. Better than Final Fantasy.
too think we're in a timeline final fantasy might die and chrono trigger could come back from the dead.
How do I beat Lavos? I’m at level 42 and he one shots me with his nipple lasers. I did all the sidequests except the Black Omen.
>>741806928>Whole plot happens because the advanced super tech city from the 24th century with a computer that can predict the future doesn't have a backup generator during a stormlol
>>741827346>he didn't level up Ayla to 99 to get the Bronze Fist for critical hits hitting up to 9999 damage. is this the snes version?
>>741796668I don't? Only nitpick is Line Slash and they just ditch any idea of positional attacks besides aoe circles and even in a low level run you never get to use them
>>741809586FF6 font easier to read?https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/9429/
>>741827818Though I guess Flamethrower is an exception because flamethrower is awesome.>>741827346You should be Level 45-50. most important stats in that fight is hp, stamina and magic defense. You need at least 850 HP and it's good to have a character that can cover 1 or 2 others. Crono and Magus both have high stamina/mdef and i usually use one of them with one with has high stamina and low mdef, and another with high mdef and low stamina
>>741827564Steam>>741828164I guess I’m going to have to get those levels in the Black Omen then?
what font was used for dialogue in Chrono Trigger SNES version?
>>741828280Not necessarily, you can do it lower but it's safer if this is your first time. But if you don't already have 'Gold Erng's for everyone, you can steal them from Synchrites. Megalixirs can be stolen from Ruminators. That room where 4 Ruminators move from out the hole in the Black Omen is perfect for this.
>>741828280make sure you do it in 1000 AD, 600 AD, and then 12,000 BC just for those items.
who remembers the famed wolflobe sword
>>741796668I don't dislike the combat so much as I dislike how undercooked it is. Stat effects are practically non existent til the last 10% of the game
>>741828460I think the earring are only on the Omen.>>741828512Alright, I’ll clear out the 1000AD one and see if I have enough levels.
>>741828630Yeah I think it being hyped as "10/10 best game EVAR" really hurts it when it's really just...okay.Not bad but just...okay.
>>741828448Chicago.
>>741828695That and it really oversells the 13(?) Endings angle. I appreciate that you can technically beat the game whenever and there's a couple frames and dialogue boxes, but the true ending is the only full ending and even that's a bit underwhelming. Earthbounds ending by comparison feels far more fleshed out and even that isnt great
>>741828793Definitely. At least two of the 13 endings are just slideshows of random characters too. Even Chrono Cross does a better job of actually having different multiple endings despite that game being an unfinished mess.
chrono trigger should ditch the three party member only and go with a seven party on the field at the same time. Hell, invite in Gaspar too.
>>741796668ATB sucks
>>741829307What makes ATB suck?
>>741796668I don't really dislike it.But 90% of the game doesn't use it well. It's more the wasted potential of it that I dislike
>>741827346Why would you skip the black omen?!
>>741829157ThisEasiest way to make me lose interest is to make you shelve the majority of the party at any given time. "Oh, new guy, cool, get on the fucking bench you suck" should NEVER be the reaction to a new party member, but JRPGs do it consistently. 3 guys in a row was a limitation of the time. If you're going to give me 7 guys, let me use all fucking 7.
People are way more harsh for Secret of Manas far more ambitious combat than Chrono "Greatest of all time" Trigger.Its crazy that people will praise Secret of Mana(shame about the combat tho) and then laud Chrono Trigger
Another Chrono Trigger thread in the same week? We cannot stop winning Chrono Bros
>>741830271I don't have much new images to edit, so it's slow.
>>741798461Here have an old meme I stole from the long ago Live A Live threads during the time of the remake.
>>741796863that's literally in-game portrait.
>>741806623Nice Tits!
>>741819001Flea Feet
In Alternate Timeline Crono’s Mom is the protagonist after she fell in the portal at the end of the game. Tata, Johnny, Kino, Fiona and one of the Guardia Queens would rock as party members!It would make the ultimate rom hack. I've got my own headcanon about characters, but I'd have Atropos, Taban, and a Reptite up there at least
>>741807481Is this a sequel or a rework without gacha?
>>741831636so would Schala be the seventh party member?
>>741831816it's a rework that covers the first season.
>>741813742Nice
>>741830267there's nothing ambitious about secret of mana's combat when seiken densetsu already did and did it better, the problem with secret of mana is that it's SHIT
sex with lucca
>>741832449This
>>741831636It had better end with Chrono's mom killing Dalton before he kills the rest of the cast, thereby preventing Chrono Cross and saving the franchise
>>741832071Yes absolutely!
>>741832449>>741832953The glasses stay on but the helmet comes off
>>741830831Don't tease me by bringing up my chronocuck fetish!
>>741834402Deal.
>>741834531Ranjeesh...
Ayla STRONGAyla PRETTYMe love AYLA
It feels pretty basic at times but I like the positional importance. I always felt the game had this weird balance where enemy encounters are piss easy but some bosses are suddenly much harder. I'm not really familiar with it, as I've only played it once - and I got to the very end without finishing it. I just recently started a replay but with Chrono Trigger Plus.I'm really surprised Square didn't keep going with Chrono Trigger's combat design as it seemed the most logical way to move the ATB into a 1:1 overworld without battle transitions. Should have moved in that direction vs what Cross did.
>>741806928pretty sure the devs said this was never meant to be a direct CT sequel so these interpretations don't make much sense
>>741836542The bottom three greentexts all directly happen in Chrono Cross itself?The top one is from the slop DS bonus content that nobody likes that tried to tie the two games together so it's about as canon as Chrono Cross is. But it's not in Chrono Cross itself.
>>741830374if you're taking requests on edits can I request one of Marle grabbing onto Crono like pic-related?thought it'd be cute
>>741832449Sex with Lucca is for Ayla only
lucca stocks have been up in recent years. everyone loves lucca
>>741830072nobody tell this guy about cross, he's gonna lose his mind
>>741796668the only thing about chronotrigger I don't like is that it is not on the nintendo switch
>>741836918I'm going to sleep but I'll do it another time
>>741837761Thanks editanonYou're based
>>741837347I know Cross.And indeed.
>>741835362Me too anon me too.
>>741796668Chrono Sister
>>741831636I can hear To Far Away Times in my mind right nowI feel bad for anyone who never experienced the ending after playing through the whole game
>>741839639The ending/credits song lives rent free in my headIt's so hope-pilled, one of the most treasured vidya songs I know
>>741797801Star ocean on the SNES had this actually.I adore CT but yeah, I'm not gonna defend that crap.
>>741806928Only mutants like this rushed out amateur trash that tried to ride Triggers name.
>>741837761Night
One of the best ever. The reason nobody buys nu FF's or the remakes is because it's some action RPG garbage.
>>741796668i hate how it can affect the difficulty of the battles i know its not difficult game but i hate how i know i can change it and it feels gay
