Oh okay. Troll thread.

Trigger with a hard R.

>take the most successful casual RPG of all time with iconic Akira Toriyama art
>give it a sequel with a convoluted plot, convoluted battle system, and over sixty hideously designed characters you can't bare to look at

What the fuck were they thinking?

>>5776207
The more tedious a game is to get through, the more jrpg fans will like it, that's just how it is.

>>5776280
Can't bear*

>>5776280
It's more of a Radical Dreamers sequel than a Chrono Trigger one, they just advertised it as a Trigger sequel cause no one knew what the hell Radical Dreamers was back then

I have a copy and I love the premise. Unfortunately anytime I start to get into the flow after about 30-45 mins of playing, I snap out of it.

It's not like i get fucked by rng, hard boss, akward story moment or anything that might normally snap you out of a game. I dont kniw what it is, anytime i start to actually enjoy it, I stop.

Unlike CT where I was able to go from start to end of the 1st play through no problems and even got a few of the other endings before I put it away. Only managed to make it about 10 hours into CC before shelving it. Want to go back but not enough time or energy.

Trigger fanboys are mentally ill and stuck in a preschool level of intellect. You can always easily tell by them not being able to comprehend even the basic plot of Cross.

>iconic Akira Toriyama art
>we could have gotten this instead of yelling blonde electric retards sameface garbage

>>5776207
>CT: Better characters, faster pacing
>CC: Better music
Story is equally stupid in both, and graphics are equally good. CT wins, because characters and pacing are more important than music.

Yeah, Chrono Cross sure was a masterpiece alright.

>>5776207
The guy from Dragon Ball did the art for CT, but he didn't contribute for CC?

>>5776410
So which is more tedious then? CT or CC?

>>5776814
>CC: Better music
What did he mean by this?

>>5776426
Not really a sequel, but a more fleshed out and extended version of RD.

I prefer RD. All the convoluted bullshit they added with CC was kinda dumb.

>>5776841
>DURRRR TIME TRAVEL BAD

Without time travel Project Kid would have never happened. Good job failing to understand the basic plot premise, Trigglypuff.

>>5776280
This. Cross is a nice RPG all things considered, but I'd never pick it over Trigger.

>>5776779
I don't wanna be that guy, but that art looks like a gigantic mess. Aira specially looks like a generic 90's cute girl. Even Crono looks like a dumb fuck. BetaRobo looks cool as fuck though.

>>5777440
>basic premise
Yeah, the basic premise is TIME TRAVEL BAD, you retard. They literally throw this in your face several times, and all of this game is predicated upon the fact that Crono and the gang went back in time.

You Crosslets are disgusting with your garbage game. It's not deep, it's shallow as the piss puddle you retards dribble down your legs in impotent rage when people point out how terrible this game is and how it killed all possibility of a Chrono series, and how inferior it was to CT.

>>5776426
nobody knows now either

>>5777463
Okay, and the basic premise of trigger is LAVOS BAD. We can reduce the plot of every game down to a single line to make it sound bad, so why don't you move past that and provide some genuine criticism?

>>5776207
I didn't even like Chrono Cross.

>>5777463
We don't need you to further prove that you absolutely failed to even begin to understand Cross, Triggly. It was painfully obvious from the beginning.

>>5777518
>entire story is Reptites going WE WUZ KANGZ from their dead timeline due to Crono and crew
>also Lavos again
Yes, very deep, much story.

>take out live-instanced battle settings
>make double techs more of a novelty fan nod than a major part of the battle system
>replace the detailed and diverse world-building with a purely nautical setting and people just telling you about it
>recruiting party members is now about catching all the pokemon

>>5777210
They wanted him to, but he was busy working with Enix on DQVII.

>>5777817
>take out live-instanced battle settings
replace with a far superior system that isn't chock full of fixed unavoidable fights

>make double techs more of a novelty fan nod than a major part of the battle system
CT is so easy that double techs are just as useful (read: not)

>replace the detailed and diverse world-building with a purely nautical setting and people just telling you about it
LMAO, OLD WORLD, SECRET ADVANCED KINGDOM, STONE AGE WORLD, FUTURE WORLD, can't get more generic

>recruiting party members is now about catching all the pokemon
As opposed to picking up your generic jRPG silent hero, healer love interest, spunky childhood friend, tragic knight, lowbrow strongman, broody mage, token robot

>>5777503
looks like you vanquished him. good kill.

On a side note, I wanted to bone Kid so hard when I was a preteen. I was briefly obsessed over wanting to be Serge just so that I can inject my hot grey poupon into Kid.

>>5776280
>iconic art
It's literally fucking dragonball z, the guy makes cartoons for little kids. Fuck off and eat a dick

>>5777856
This post reads like the textual equivalent of slap fighting.

>>5776426
Is Radical Dreamers worth playing?

>>5779221
Not really unless you are into VNs.

>>5776426
>>5779221
It's not really a game, it's a visual novel.

>>5779221
yes, it's a pretty melancholic experience

>>5776779
>third-rate Dragon Quest knockoff
>Dragon Quest was drawn by Toriyama
>literally arguing that Toriyama should have been replaced by someone plagiarizing him

Are all CCshills this retarded? Also, nice job completely avoiding the core issue that every character in Cross looks like vomit on two legs.

>>5778026
>the guy makes cartoons for little kids.
I find this statement hilarious because one of the first things I found out when I got online in 1998 was that over there in the USA, DBZ was censored to hell and back. Even beer signs at bars were removed, come on.
