I can understand liking FF8 better than Chrono Trigger just because it does something different. Whether or not you like that different is a matter of personal opinion, but compared to other JRPGs Chrono Trigger is pretty standard. That's largely because it set many of the standards for other games in the genre that followed, but the unfortunate reality is that recognizing a game's legacy doesn't make it more enjoyable to play than a sea of successors that have built on that legacy, and even if it was unique/original when it came out, it no longer feels that way because of its influence on the genre.

It had a unique battle system. Has any other game ever done it like that?

the music is good, but honestly the only tracks i actually remember are the ones that uematsu did

that's not a knock on mitsudas talents, and the entire reason he even composed triggers soundtrack is wild, but uematsu just has that something that sets his work apart for others

The two best Japanese composers are Uemstsu and Higashino.
