I agree with this assessment a lot. The art and environmental design is gorgeous. The music is top notch (the battle theme is a bit polarizing though). In terms of production it's seriously well put together, for the most part. But, it suffers a lot of the worst excesses of 90s JRPG design, with a meandering, nonsensical plot and a battle system that's more interested in being fiddly than in being fun. It feels like one of the worst examples of a company just straight up not understanding the appeal of a game and making a "sequel" that could easily have been called something else. As a recommendation for someone just coming off of Chrono Trigger, I can hardly imagine something worse, oddly.

I'd like to give people in this thread the warning I wish they had given me about this game. Don't go into Cross expecting it to have anything to do with Trigger (or expecting it to be 10% as good as Trigger). They made a weird JRPG where every character is just a text filter and then decided in the last 3 hours that it was the sequel to Chrono Trigger. It has nothing in common with CT except a couple of place names and some dead characters, and would be a much better game if they called it Lynx Quest or Radical Dreamers 2 or what the hell ever.
Good to know if someone invaded your country that you would be a capitulator and collaborator in the name of an unjust peace.
Right, it would be bad if they put fuckin buzzsaws in the non crosswalk parts of roads to deter jaywalking. It would be monstrous. You however, see that and go, "those jaywalkers get what they DESERVE" because there is something broken in you that you've filled up with contrarianism and petulant nationalism.
Have you ever jaywalked? Should you have been put to death for it?
By this incredibly dumb logic, nothing should be illegal because criminals don't follow laws. How asinine can you get?
I would rather have any number of undocumented immigrants here than people like you.
This account posts nothing but right wing rage bait and pro Russia anti Ukraine shit
Holy shit you must be 13 if you think RvB is from the 90s.
