Interesting article over at Gamesutra:
Game Narrative Review: Chrono Trigger
It's three pages so I won't post it here but it's not a bad read. The only part I really don't like is the author says Crono's revival weakens the story because it cheapens his death. I think he's right in saying that reviving a character can weaken the story, but I really don't think it did in Chrono Triggers case.
It was a fantastic and deeply involved quest getting him back and actually saving him was just highly rewarding and made me feel that much closer to the silent protaganist.
