seancontinuing the current pattern of playing old iconic games i missed out on originally, i figured i should finally play everyone's favourite big square rpg sequel on the ps1
im dying.. you can actually refuse to let her join the party?? and then you recruit your childhood gf who forgot you instead??? this is so funny
backup dancers named yu and mi for a performer named nikki
love how they tutorialize advanced combat mechanics by having the comic relief henchman duo (solt and peppor) screw up in a fight and then shout at each other about what they should've done instead
what does it mean that they've called the mimics "the boxer boys" when one of them is clearly labelled a girl
i'm starting to think they might have overcorrected for toriyama only ever drawing 3 types of girls by making this one just a series of girls who are some type of way
imo if you're just picking a single random word to communicate "this is a french guy", you should at least pick the correct translation
i really thought they'd have more to say about this situation than "wow that's weird! anyway bye"
this game has a lot of interesting ideas but unfortunately it's also very stupid
mestre ensinador
"it's okay that we killed an endangered beast that is critical to the ecosystem because there were babies in its carcass that might survive 
" oh phew for a second i thought there might be some depth or tension there
" oh phew for a second i thought there might be some depth or tension there
im finding it really hard not to get a sense of fomo while playing this on account of how many party members they expect you to recruit and then immediately ditch bc you only have 3 active slots
more games should let you immediately run from a boss fight and have the boss just be like "oh.. well come talk to me again if you want to fight i guess"
love this guy
resorting to a walkthrough and immediately feeling vindicated bc i was stuck on simply not having spoken to every single npc in the starting town roughly 20 hours in
if i was making a sequel to chrono trigger i would probably not put in a plot point where environmentalists do a little genocide, but that's just me
this game really went out of it's way to make sure you knew that if you died, your gf would NEVER have sex
on one hand, the half-point(?) twist in this game is very stupid, but on the other, it immediately gives you control over a catboy, a goblin, and a sexy clown
australian rikku constantly says "i'll kick your arse to the moon" and the clown just said "i'll kick your derriere to the moon"... the way this game is written i cannot tell if this is foreshadowing or just that they couldn't think of new threats
so many things are happening and so little of them make sense, but im mainly wondering why the nerdy dad next door has no questions about why you are a large cat man
im still not over the fact that the talking clown skull named "Skelly" you picked up is just a guy named Skelly who happened to die and become an undead skeleton coincidentally
love that they try to do an emotional flashback to when you first meet australian rikku, but seemingly forget that you rejected her like three times in a row and she didn't even join the party till later
Em@sean why do you have to pit two bad bitches against each other
@sean there's simply no time to write thought out backstories when you're putting like 40 guys in the game
john@sean this area is ridiculously gorgeous
@sean I would generally not do a lot of things chrono cross does I think
@sean yeah it's a very weird choice!!!!!
