Why compare FF13 vs Chrono Trigger like these have the best battle systems? Chrono Trigger has a good battle system, Final Fantasy 13, they try to make an action oriented battle system with some strategy involved, I'll admit that, but it's just too repetitive and boring. There are a lot of great battle systems. Below are a lot of different standard RPGs that have battle systems that are more unique than the standard style. I mean there are games like Breath of Fire 3 and 4, Xenogears, Xenosaga 3, that uses somewhat close to the standard style but have good battle systems, but I listed only those that have a unique style to them.
With people talking about the same few select RPGs, it makes me question how many RPGs they've actually played. Square Enix has an amazing amount of high quality titles during their past glory days, but even then they're debatably not the best.
