| JRPGfan said: People be hatin'... but I loved Chrono Cross. If Chrono trigger is a 10/10, then Cross is atleast a 9/10... its right up there amoung the best of the best of rpgs for the ps1. I really liked the series and I want to see a new chrono game (as long as it stays true to its origins). (this had better not some butchered action type rpg though... chrono needs to be turn based) |
Seems consistent with what I'm saying. Chrono Trigger is a 9.5+/10 (there is only one game that I would give a 10/10, and it isn't an RPG), Chrono Cross an 8/10. If I liked the game as much as other people I would probably rate Chrono Cross as an 8.5/10. Either way, it was a decrease, not increase in quality, in my opinion. Most JRPG's released today would be 7.5/10 (worse than Chrono Cross.) The only ones in recent years that I'd say are better are the Dragon Quest series, Persona series, SMT series, Xenoblade, and Ni No Kuni (if I am not forgetting something that is pretty much it.)
Also turning Chrono into an action-rpg would be something the modern Square-Enix would probably do, and that is one of the reasons why I don't want them to touch the series with new content. ATB works perfectly fine.
