Honestly, when was the last "big" Square-Enix retranslation? (I don't mean official translations of games that were previously fan translated, like Final Fantasy III 2D or Live-A-Live - I mean a REAL, honest-to-good retranslation of something that was previously translated.) Is it... Chrono Trigger on DS in 2008?
Sad state of affairs, isn't t?

Presumably the one where you lose the final battle and Lavos proceeds to nuke everything.

>Magus had the chance to actually try to save his kingdom from Lavos, but instead he manipulated everyone including his own sister just to get btfo.
You're missing the point. Magus tried to take the opportunity to get high enough in the Queen's inner circle to get close to Lavos because he had little convincing option. The point of Magus' failure was to further highlight the hopelessness of the situation. The heroes are at their lowest point. The way things were, you might even begin to question if the future CAN be saved. By not fighting, you're figuring hey, he might be an asshole but we're pretty much in the same boat and our goals ultimately align - a fact that isn't lose on Magus if you choose to fight anyway, given what he tells you. Also, if you're playing a version with animated cutscenes, you find out Frog eventually gets turned back human anyway, so...

>"but the planet refused to change"
It's the "future," not the planet (speaking of which, this is one of the areas where the DS translation dropped the ball, making the text a bit more flowery when the original was perfect).
