However, it will take me a while. Sorry everyone - audio links are gonna be dead for some time.  And once they come back up, they'll be YouTube videoembeds breaking my layout a bit, but at least they'll be available again.And like I said, I'll respond to a few of your replies more closely later; I'm just scrambling trying to make my OP not be broken right now. In the meantime, I hope you all enjoy the text and images, at least. | ||

The only problem with Secret of Evermore is the "extra" side questy kinda stuff to build up the towns and such. Also hi5 for FUCKYOUFUCKYOUFUCKYOU on Tidus, I actually enjoyed that Final Fantasy but Tidus really ruined that entire game for me, and left an awful bitter taste in my mouth. Horrible main character, the whiniest little son of a bitch, I wanted to punch his teeth out. ASUTjsaoklgjusatglha so much left over rage from that guy. I think everyone pretty much agrees though. That's the funny part. 90% of everyone who played the game though Tidus was a girl for the first 10 minutes of the game. Most androgynous faggy character in the world. | ||

When I read this earlier, I spent literally an hour on Youtube with Chrono Trigger themes and gameplay videos. The whole flashback scene at the Magic Mountain with Frog makes me cry when he finally picks up the sword...ah fuck it, I'll link it: SPOILERS: + Show Spoiler + Bonus because I'm feeling nice, one of the best build ups to a bad guy fight ever: + Show Spoiler + | ||

I ended up fighting the end boss, and winning, while vastly underpowered. I then returned the game and never played it again. Something tells me that I should get this game and give it the time it deserves this christmas vacation. Spotlighted. You molested my Dropbox account. Thank you very much for the spotlight, Mani. <3 Original Message From Manifesto7: 10,000+ views in 20 hours. See what happens when you go and make an awesome thread! That will teach you...

Sadly I have had CT spoiled and will not be able to play it for 5 years when I forget this. Have you seen The Passion yet? Jesus dies!

Although I can't really fault you, including every good music from Chrono Trigger would probably mean including them all. That was my problem! For instance, I had originally intended to use Undersea Palace somewhere in this because Undersea Palace is FUCKING AWESOME. But in the end I had to go with what I felt was best suited for my write-up. On November 15 2011 04:57 NukeTheStars wrote: Two words: Campfire scene. It remains, to me, the most moving and thought-provoking sequence in any video game. It actually gets you thinking about the sheer scope of your time travel and what Robo had to go through. Then Lucca's scene right after, ah! So good. ThisthisthisthisthisTHIS @EveryoneElse: I would love to respond to each of you with my sincerest thanks and appreciation, but that would take me the rest of the day. I am blown away by how many of you posted just to say you liked the article. So instead I'll just issue a blanket statement: Thank you, everyone. This was one hell of a thing to wake up to. TeamLiquid is amazing and I'm happy to be a part of it. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/S1qdh.png) Jesus. | ||

I feel the same way about FF7 as you do about CT. You have great taste. Chrono trigger shuffled around my top 3 for a long time as a kid, and its still one of the greatest games ever. Also thank you for pointing out how terrible FF games have been after the Square-Enix merger. <---- HOLY FUCK Thank you Edit: How did I know that people were gonna defend games like ff9/10 here against masterpieces of human kind like ff6/7/ct loooool it never ends Grouping FF7 with FF6 and Chrono Trigger, with no mention of FF4? Give me a break. FF9 is a masterpiece compared to FF7. Do you like FF8 too? Chrono Trigger IMO is the 2nd best RPG ever made, behind FF4. I used to post on the Chrono Compendium all the time, talking about the mechanics of time travel, and all that sort of pointless stuff lol. All that pointless talk resulted in isolating only 1 or 2 plotholes in Chrono Trigger! | ||
