Is Chrono Trigger still awesome, even after all these years?

Chrono Cross is a different story. It felt more like a Chrono Trigger fanfic than an actual sequel but let's save that for a different topic (or not).

No, it's cool. It's fits right in.

Mute character or no, I think the dev team took an incredible risk with some of their ideas like, oh, killing off the main character before the end of the game.

That's sort of less risky when your game involves time travel.

Crono Cross sucked. I couldn't get into it at all. I like Crono Trigger a lot even though I haven't beat it. I honestly hate how he doesn't talk though. It ****** me off because I really like his design.

It's a great game, but I like FF7 better.

I was just a kid when it came out. I think the lack of Chrono's dialogue made it easier for kids to assume his role while playing the game. I think that's one of the reasons they may have choosen to leave him "mute". So you could, play the role, so to speak.

I played Chrono Trigger around the time FF Chronicles was released, when I had already played numerous RPGs and was becoming jaded about them. Nevertheless, there were moments in the game that I still find very unique.

Never played it.

The fact that he doesn't talk makes him that much more awesome of a character, because it makes the player feel like he's Crono.


And to you guys that haven't beaten it, you're missing out on half the ****ing game, even if you're 90% through it.

The only downside to playing Chrono Trigger today is that I know what's going to happen with it. But I still put it at second to FF6.

I was playing it again like two months ago. It was still great.

Yeah but reviving Chrono was optional and a long series of events. I completely skipped right passed it on my first playthrough and I think I enjoyed the game more knowing the dude was dead.

Since I never owned an SNES, I played it after Chrono Cross. I didn't think it was the greatest game, but it was pretty good.

I've played over 100 RPG's, but never Chrono Trigger. I did enjoy Chrono Cross though, even though it looked like Walt Disney threw up on the entire thing.
