A sequel that is darker in tone and explores the unintended consequences of the former protagonists' actions? Neat!

None of which is explained until the last 30 minutes in a massive exposition dump, poorly? What the fuck were they thinking

Totally a game that needs a remake.

Clean the story up..

Downsize the cast to like.. 12 tops.

Still make it super artsy..

If I read every line of dialog and still need a wiki to even begin to understand what the fuck happened in a game where the story is the centerpiece then something is wrong

I played it right after CT and kept a log of my playthrough, and the amount of ways in which it connects to Chrono Trigger (often more in time travel/ramifications ways versus specific characters) if you're REALLY paying attention is staggering.

I think it's great, but it's not easy to follow at all.

The challenge after getting infinite group heals for everyone in your party just drops to zero....from not much.

Mastermune wrecks any shred of challenge but thankfully thats end of game op weapon.

The only thing CC has over CT is the music. CC is a clusterfuck.

And the silent protag gimmick fails hard after the big plot twist.

Theres so much talking the main seems like a disinterested idiot to be silent.

Said it before and I'll say it again: it would have been better with no mention of CT at all.

Wish they wouldve come up with a better explanation for the fall of Guardia than fucking Dalton leading the army of a bumfuck-nowhere podunk lmao.

like imagine in Zelda if Hyrule was overthrown by Tingle and that staring village from Twilight Princess >_>

The music and art direction are staggeringly good.

The story is convulted at best and happily jumps up it's own ass. This was a common trait of rpgs at the time, though.

It's a flawed classic. That said if it ever got a remaster or a (keep dreaming) full-blown remake I would be right there to buy it.

FF8 and Xenogears comes to mind immediately. It's too bad it babies' first jrpg blinds people from knowing they are factually bad games.

The absolute best RPG soundtrack in gaming still to this day, and I was not a big PlayStation fan. Probably the best soundtrack period.

I customized my Guild Wars 2 soundtrack with CC music.

Late 90s Squaresoft plotlines were a mess. They took such an artistic approach to the storytelling, and tried to add so much unnecessary details to the plot, that they were near incomprehensible at times.

They started turning things around with IX (not counting Necron).

I replayed it during a deep depression I was having and it made it soo much fucking worse. It just made me tread on how frivolous existence is.

Replayed it recently and thankfully it didn't wreck me.
