There’s no such game as “Chrono Trigger”, it’s just a mandala effect thing. You guys are mixing up Chrono Cross with DBZ and random snes rpgs.

Just how many mistakes have you suffered on the way here?

An uncountable number, to be sure.
Everyone always talks about being inspired by Chrono Trigger, but only Another Eden had the guts to make a game featuring a time traveling frog samurai named Cyrus.

Ohhh, those are knees. I thought they were teeth/missiles/boobs at first, that makes more sense. Still kind of an effed up abomination though.

Yeah I think it's just kinda squatting and it might be a foot or three taller if it fully stood up.

If anything I think we should be arguing about which SaGa game is the best

Kinda waffling between Frontier and Scarlet Grace for me. Scarlet Grace has the better battle system, but Frontier's world is a lot more interesting. Emerald Beyond looks like it's going to be basically Scarlet Grace gameplay + Frontier insanity so it's looking like a strong contender.

Did a proper English knowledge database for Scarlet Graces ever emerge anywhere? Because I played it at launch but felt like I was missing so much. I intended to go back to it once I could look more stuff up but that never happened from what I can tell.

the information is available, but scattered. strelitzia inn has mechanic explanations, the wiki has various lists, gamefaqs has character recruitment, side quests and walkthroughs. there is no dedicated sidequest guide, because side quests are also sometimes main quests and they can change based on which main quest you are doing and in which order.

Lost Odyssey had some moms in the main party. Pretty much every Rune Factory game lets you become a parent as part of the game ditto Story of Seasons/Harvest Moon and Stardew Valley.

Fire Emblem Awakening and Fates can technically have this where your created character can have kids in the game. Also the main character in Fallout 4 I guess.

struggling to think of any others though. There are a few generational games with moms in the party like Dragon Quest V or Phantasy Star 3 but they're usually pretty minor characters overall.

after chrono trigger chat i see its time for this. soon we'll loop around to persona gay representation, then FF series rankings, then 3 girls in a JRPG party, then we should be back to chrono trigger in time for halloween.

Now that's good jerky!
I just replayed Trials of Mana and had 3 girls in the party :)

I love how quickly that game clips along. Nice to have a big RPG you can beat in a week instead of a month and a half.

I’m kind of craving something I can really get stuck in for a while, though.

trails to azure i didn't need groping jokes to be brought back, let alone referenced jokingly by a chest message -______-

other than that it's typical trails. doing some small tasks in town, some intrigue, half the dialog being "(X) did a thing" "yes, that does sound like something (X) would do, haha" and the other half being "you praise me too highly" "nonsense it is i who is being praised too highly". very cozy and slightly sleepy. nice to see kevin for 5 seconds

i had this game from gamefly for months but never cracked into it because i just didn't want the timesink, but now that i've already played a couple of jrpgs this month i figure, why not a third

i'm gonna try to care more about Arts this time around because in Zero you could get by on nothing but Craft attacks for 75% of the game

Enough of this nonsense. You are an important mayor and this absurd contraption has wasted enough of your time.
Grandia 3 didn't have a protagonist mom, but the protagonist's mom did join the party for awhile. She was pretty much the most interesting character in that stupid game and the quality dropped significantly when her and that satyr guy hosed off to live on a boat while you were stuck with the lousy children.
