Many years ago (probably on LUE rather than CE), I did a playthru of Chrono Cross immediately after Chrono Trigger and I sorta wrote down all my thoughts and how it related to CT as I played. I tried to check every little thing and I was stunned at how good of a sequel it is to a game with multiple endings that has to do with time travel. They put in little nods to CT, they account for the fact that people beat it in different ways, and overall narratively speaking I thought it was an amazing sequel to a game that did not lend itself to a direct sequel.

I get why people didn't like it as much, and I also get why some people don't THINK of it as a good sequel, but you really have to find the connections and pay close attention to see where they are.
