>Funny thing is they compared blue dragon to final fantasy as well.

of course they would compare it to FF.

Just like how all MMOs get compared to WoW, FF is the benchmark for JRPG just like WoW is the benchmark for MMO.

 

LOL people have different benchmarks though yeah many people will follow the croud for the most part.  For me the benchmark for jrpg varies because there so many different types of jrpg.  I would pick chrono over FF and there where many other great rpgs like grandia or lufia or breath of fire which all had different stories and their own unique set of turn based gameplay.  FF just happens to be the one that become most popular my honest opnion because it looked so good back then with ff7 it just really caught on per say and hasn't let go.  We never did see more versions of those other great rpgs that I mentioned which is unfortunate as we just got stuck with final fantasy ever since.  I love rpgs though to be honest I haven't done final fantasy since that part 3 I mentioned.  Like I said everyone has their own benchmark.
