It's true, human civilization is a gigantic loop of using natural resources in order to build better weapons in order to kill and destroy each other more efficiently. Besides destroying the natural environment, humans also kill 60 billion mammals and birds every year to eat them. The biggest natural disaster on Earth is the daily meals of the human race. The end of the (human) world will neither be brought by the will of a god (as religious people believe) nor by a cosmological event (as scientists prognosticate) but by the madness of man. Therefore the chances of self-inflicted extinction are 100% over 200,000 years. I'd guess 99% over 1,000 years. The year 3,000 may come. The year 4,000 will never come.

I dump this pic in every Chrono Cross thread I come across.

>>5048118
the 2deep story would have a bit more impact if the people affected weren't little jewish caricatures and the characters actually had dialogue in the game.

but I appreciate the attempt

>>5048209
Can someone explain this to me? When I played this game as a kid I had absolutely no idea what was going on near the end

>>5048209
Too much of a brainlet to understand this. Please help.

Can we end the meme of this being a bad battle theme please?

It manages the feat of being bland, grating and disorienting at the same time.

So, I've only just started getting into Jrpg type games

Does every single one deal with some kind of dystopian future?

>>5048118
But the ones genociding fairies and riding very pollution-happy tanks are them. Meanwhile humans are in pretty quaint villages that don't seem to have any form of industry in them.

Worst environmentalist message ever.

>>5048329
It's not a meme if it's true.

>>5048329
you know what's fucked? the radical dreamers version of this doesn't sound so annoying

yes
the people who actually wrote all the square enix shit over in the UK then outsourced their shitty work over to japan were stuck on the same 3 narratives

really hope nobody here actually believes japenese people have the capacity to write any type of literature which is even remotely complex

>>5048465
The Japanese write the best waifus that warm your heart thoe and that's all that matters.

>>5048465
Thing is tho what's wrong with Chrono Cross is exactly that they didn't stick to the same Star Wars narrative as always. Everyone was expecting Chrono Trigger 2 The Empire Strikes Back and instead they got Attack of the Clones.

>>5048468
Does Chrono Cross feature godly tier waifu called Harley doe? The answer is yes it does.

>muh trees muh planet
Fuck off with this anti-human bullshit

>>5048478
Dinosaurs did nothing wrong.

This was my favorite game at one point and I have absolutely no idea what the story was.

Dragons > humans

I am not the OP of that image, but I enjoyed what was written.

I am currently replaying Chrono Cross....its been nearly 20 years since I got the developer ending, and my mind needed refreshed.

That "Infographic" describes how the events of Trigger & Cross mesh together. I never played Trigger (Please no bully), but had a friend that would ONLY play it. I have part of the gyst of what is happening.

I do plan on playing trigger after this. I know it is wrong, but I am going to do it anyway. I have questions about things.....

Cross and Trigger are deep games. They are simple, or complex depending on what you are looking for. Cross has some really simplistic battle systems.....Almost too simple. But the story is amazing.

>Can we end the meme of this being a bad battle theme please?
I can't stand that, and wish they found a way to have a few battle tracks (other then the few marbule story battles)


>>5048478

Hi-Ho!

>>5048481
>dinosaurs
>real

>>5048776
Dinosaurs didn't die they evolved into jews I mean, reptilians

>>5048118
The dwarves make me wonder how much they know about the end of CT. Did Crono write down how humans were treated in evolution?

>>5048802
>An adult person actually wrote that.

>>5048813
>he thinks it's a joke

>>5048465
>says that the square game were written by people in the uk
>provides no proof
got it buddy. I bet you think the marvel films are literary masterpieces.

the west doesn't exactly have a stellar repuation anymore buddy

le tweest in la tweeste inside el tweesto grandioso

that said the first half was pretty good, and the second half could have been good if it wasnt a text dump. and really, the characters could have been good if there was 3-12 instead of like, 40. even suikoden does a better job regarding the characters having unique dialgoue

>>5048767
could never get over the facepaint and lack of hair. her art is always prettier than in the actual game

>>5048448
rd is underrated. its actually a really good text game

>>5048885
>her art is always prettier than in the actual game
The game's official art is literal fucking trash

>>5048950
tbf the character designs for the trash characters are trash. I never had a problem with the backgrounds, serge, lynx, kidd, etc. I thought the watercolor/pastels were a good spiritual alternative to the bright saturation of the buttugly toriyama art that miraculously translated well into spritework in 16 bit, but probably couldn't be recreated

>>5048958
>buttugly toriyama art
DELET THIS

No but he does have really bad sameface syndrome. His art is still fun though, and the way he draws machines and vehicles is awesome. Makes them into characters of their own.

>>5048950
>there are people who did not enjoy playing as korcha's mom marcha

>>5049010
his machines are cool, I'll give you that one

but his inability to draw proper anatomy really bugs me. and the people look like they have some sort of congenitally malformed heads and stocky bodies. I don't think I'll ever actually like it. he's a one trick pony

>>5049082
Is it true that Guile is actually Alfador, Janus' cat?

Game slaps, truly squares magnum opus. I rarely finish JRPGS but I got thru this one

>>5048118
What a colossal disappointment this game was.

>>5048773
CT plot is just a Saturday morning cartoon compared to CC.

>>5049127
In radical dreamers he was amnesiac magus but they ran out of time to implement it in cross.

I played this once without a walkthrough and then with.

Basically two different games.

>>5048201
Scientists have a nuclear doomsday clock for humanity destroying itself, you know. You're not the only person to think we're self-destructive.

This a faps you are ashamed of thread?

>>5051703
>not Orlha
You're right to be ashamed. One goddamn (hand)job.

>>5051703
>>5051716
All the human(oid) girls are perfectly fappable

If you fapped to any of the animals and weird creatures though then yeah you should probably be worried

>>5048465

>wrote all the square enix shit over in the UK

Are you on meth or something?

>>5051734
the only thing I truly regret about the game is you never get to go fucking swimming or diving

seriously, what the FUCK was kato thinking

>>5051845
Cute car

>>5051703

>>5049983
his name is literally Alf in the Japanese version. Why did they change it to Guile?

>>5049010
Toriyama's art style has a unique charm that can't be matched desu, Square really should've brought him back on board for Cross

>>5053473

>>5048209
Wow son slow down.

>>5048767
Harle was blonde?

>>5054869
Well, she's a clone of Kid
