Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii - Lemmy.World

Not going to get my hopes up till an official announcement.

The best remakes of ChronoTrigger were killed by vindictive SquareEnix litigators a decade ago.

I’m not holding my breath on an FF7Remale treatment on these terms.

I’d much rather they don’t FF7 it.

I’ve had a great time with Remake and Rebirth. They put a lot more into it than some of the earlier spit-shines on 2D classics, which wouldn’t have worked for a game that was kinda in between generations of art and technique. But they’re really dragging this shit out. And I really don’t need a ChronoTrigger Integrade.

The franchise and the world have abundant potential. There’s no reason they couldn’t do something really creative and exciting with it. It just feels like the modders already did exactly that, only to have their work thrown in the trash.

FF7R is great but no remake is worth monopolizing square’s A team for ten years. We could have had 17 and 18 by now.

That’s more a consequence of the MMOs sucking up all the oxygen. Plus 15 bring fumbled over and over again for nearly a decade.

But there’s no lack of talent. What SquareEnix lacks is vision and leadership.

Is it? XIV has its own devteam and they weren’t A-listers at the start.

14 crashed and burned until they brought in the A-Team to reboot it.

I’d say that had a much bigger impact on Dev cycle than a successful release on the first try with 7Remake.
