I played some of this... and... I think I need to be a much bigger CT fan to want to play this more.

Sounds like it'd be hilarious if someone with a known hate-on for Chrono Trigger tried to LP it.

Well, played prologue up until [spoiler]Magus[/spoiler].  That's ... yeah, Fanfiction: The Game pretty much says it.

Also an awful lot of things were totally broken.  Like half of the casino.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

Please provide spoilers. This sounds delicious.

I think it would have to be a love/hate thing.  A person would need to really understand the background details of the first game in order to get the most out of this one, for better or worse.  Like how the Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged guy is obviously a huge fan of Yu-Gi-Oh even though he does nothing but relentlessly mock it for how incredibly stupid it is.

Favorite stupid moment in the short time I played: [spoiler]Oh no, the experimental time egg is gonna explode!  Let us discuss for a FULL MINUTE why we should be RUNNING FROM IT while we are STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO IT and OH NO A TIME PORTAL![/spoiler]

I can't say modern RPGs are immune from that kind of crap, though.  I remember in Mother 3 when you come up to one of the needles and instead of pulling it Lucas waits patiently for the masked man to land in his ship and zap everyone and take the needle for himself.

Maybe I should keep playing so I can update with more stupidity, but I feel someone else would be much more qualified to do so (I haven't played CT in ages).

I just started playing it, mostly to see the changes from the alpha version. You CAN fight battles in the prologue -- in Fiona's Forest, there are some optional fights that are surprisingly difficult. And seriously -- the FFVII boss battle music for the regular battle theme? Really? I might just go into the music settings and change that track out myself, because it really stands out to me.

"Fanfiction: The Game" is perfectly apt.

Edit: My favorite part is still in here! Magus trudges through the snow, gives a speech about the black wind of fate or some shit, says "Death means nothing to the reaper!" and immediately collapses. ...Then an elderly man walks up and rescues him.

Why do you people have to make this sound bad enough to enjoy playing after a night of drinking?  I really didn't want to have to get into this.
