So what's your take on chrono cross? I loved chrono trigger, but something about CC just didn't push me to keep playing.

Okay, I have to put all the music clips on YouTube. My Dropbox account exploded and I don't know of any other hosts that allow direct links to .oggs.

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.

I heard a chrono trigger remix on someone's stream a few weeks ago, and instantly re-downloaded it. I'm about 2/3 of the way through (after having done ALL endings yeeaaarrrrsss ago) and I still fucking love this game. Awesome write up!

I've played through this game once a year since the year it was released. It's never gotten old.
I cast, therefore I am.

I adore CT, and I'm also a big fan of Chrono Cross. CC doesn't get as much love but I think it's amazing in its own right, ESPECIALLY the soundtrack!

Aylear,
you are fucking amazing!

No idea how long it took me reading through this. But I just sat here with my big fat grin on my face all the while.
Thank you so much!

OKAY, YouTube "videos" of the audio clips are up so the music is back now. Edited the OP. Hopefully it doesn't clutter it too badly.

you like time travel and steampunk fantasy sci fi? Ever play secret of evermore? Same kind of story to be honest. Except the main team is just the boy and his shapeshifting dog.


That was another game that I was expecting to be major-suck but ended up being FRIGGIN AWESOME.

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.
A man is what he thinks about all day long.

It's fine. 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:

I got a copy of chrono trigger from Mr. Vargas, my grade 9 cooking teacher. My friend and I blitzed the game, playing 27 hours straight. 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

Thanks for spoiler warning. 2/5 for that, otherwise great read. Sadly I have had CT spoiled and will not be able to play it for 5 years when I forget this.

Clearly Aylear, like me, never actually used Lucca for anything. :D

Eh, I always had her there for the big story moments if nothing else.

This post suffers from not including Corridors of Time.

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.

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.

@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.

Great write up. 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!
