I wonder if the Not-RPG thread has to argue about Half-Life 2 being the greatest game of all time as much as Chrono Trigger keeps coming up here.

You (as a player) mostly always have a very clear idea of what you're trying to accomplish at any given moment, and a clear picture of what your next immediate goal is. That might not seem like such a big deal but it's something a lot of RPGs, even well regarded ones, tend to fall flat on.

This point in particular sticks out to me because I'm thinking about a lot of rpgs I like and many of them aren't able to strike that balance of keeping distinct and visible short, medium, and longterm goals the way CT does. Obviously not every single game needs it, but when that stuff goes wrong it can feel aimless in a bad way.

above anything else chrono trigger arguments are kinda tiring because it is a well-crafted enough game that all difference of opinion is largely down to personal taste and annoyance with specific aspects most people won't care about as much. all i got to say is the parts that sold it for other people didnt for me cause i value specific things in rpgs it dont got

I mean, I just watched my wife beat Bug Fables. I've never cleared it myself but it seemed pretty good. I like that all the characters banter at each-other and they all have their own specific Tattle dialogue for each enemy in the game, with some very strong opinions.

I'm just trying to remember any game that was on the GameFaqs 'Best game ever' tournament and that's the only one I can think of aside from one of the Legend of Zeldas that I can't even specifically remember. Maybe it was Majora's Mask. Before Undertale came and swept the board without any bot assistance pumping up votes for it.

the most compelling moment in chrono trigger is clearly when frog beat master chief in the 2004 gamefaqs character contest poll

Chrono Trigger was an amazing game when I first played it on the SNES but it's not aged as well as other 16 or 32 bit RPG's for me and the it's the only RPG that a decent amount of indy games pull from is why I get people are perhaps a bit fed up with it

chrono trigger is good but every new rpg that comes out needs to stop being compared to it by western reviewers as if it's the last JRPG that was ever made

That part's easy to explain, you could do it in a paragraph. The real part that confuses me is what the hell is actually going on with all the timeline stuff in CT and the observers watching the timelines who get killed by Terumi.

I'm probably never going to play CT again because the story mode is really clunky to actually play but I do wish I'd get a clear answer on what's going on there.
