I’m born in 1992 so this game is a bit before my time. I started playing it and got completely hooked. It’s an absolutely fantastic game that would still hold up as a quality indie game today.
Music is amazing. Characters and character development is amazing. Story is very good. Combat is genuinely fun instead of feeling like a chore that cuts you off from the game. Art style is amazing.
I was surprised how much quality they could fit onto the SNES back it the day, it’s a really good game and everyone with a potato can ploy it.
Pro tip: Remasters have some UI unpleasantness so it’s best to stick to SNES emu version. I tried the Android and they used some native android font that ruined the immersion a bit. There’s also a tight running section that’s particularly unsuited for the mobile version. SNES is best, as originally intended.
Thanks for your post. I’m nearing the end of dragon quest XI and have been wondering what my next jrpg would be.
I think this is it as it has been on my list for some time. I played a bit of it like 15 years ago, it I have no idea how far I had gotten into the game.
I love chrono trigger, though I’m pretty young so my first time playing it was the Nintendo DS version in 2017. That soundtrack too… I get such warm feelings when I hear it.
I was also a latecomer to this game (played it in college). The time jumps were crazy!
That fucking rat
Never played it but I’ve listened to some of the soundtrack and it is awesome
