Pros

  • Even though I haven't played a JRPG since...I guess Crono Trigger when it released..
  • It falls way short of Chrono Trigger, any given Final Fantasy, any given SMT or Persona game, the Xeno games, Kingdom Hearts, etc.
  • But if you compare it to Chrono Trigger (or most other well-known JRPGs honestly) it kinda gets blown out of the water.
  • Chrono Trigger is an underrated indie Gem.
  • The only two exceptions have been Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VI.

Cons

  • Sea of Stars is heavily inspired by classic JRPGs like Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana.
  • Chrono Trigger – 8/10 – Outstanding art, music, and pacing. Sadly, it didn’t grab me like other SNES-era JRPGs did. My computer broke while preparing to fight the final boss, and I didn’t care enough about the story, characters, or the g...

Somehow the battles weren't as enjoyable as FF3 or Chrono Trigger.

Playing through Chrono Trigger for the very first time! Only a couple hours in but having an absolute blast.

Chrono Trigger is still one of the best games of all time, and a great intro.

CT is Chrono Trigger and BoF III is Breath of Fire III, two of my favorite JRPGs.
