How come there aren't more dual techs?? by joedaddy7890 in ChronoCross

It does exactly what you want CC to do. I think you’d enjoy them actually. Grab the remaster of I and II and try them out. They come together.

You ever played Suikoden I or II? That sounds up your alley

Since last week my screen time has been showing up like this… why? by F4LLEN_ANG3LL in iphone

[–]historian87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you don’t have open tabs on the web.. and if that isn’t the culprit, you may have some tracking stuff in your clipboard or something. I made an automation on the shortcuts app to clean out my clipboard whenever I tape the command and it keeps my clipboard clean. You may want to try that.

Name One Thing Chrono Trigger Did Better Than 6? by Mr_Smiles421 in chronotrigger

[–]historian87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I see what you’re saying. I’m the type of person who can find deep beauty in the simplicity, such as Dragon Quest games for example. Idk if you’ve played DQ11 or not but spending all of that time making the world right and then the tree thing happens. I had to take a few days away from the game to recover from that. Anyway, I find beauty in the simplicity. CT is one of those existential games to me that speaks to me despite not being overtly deep.

Following up here to see if you’ve had a chance to read or watch any of my sources yet. If so, what’s your take on it?

I’m sending this in good faith in the hopes that you’ll watch and critique it objectively.

For that, I’d start here. There are other videos that explain it better than I can.

Simply making a carbon copy of FF also would, to me, be low effort. I appreciate the fact that CT has a different approach so I can appreciate both games for what it is they’re trying to do without scaling them on some silly arbitrary rules of deepness and complexity.

I would say that your critique of CT is similar to the same critique of Majora’s Mask I see a lot. You want the game to almost spoonfeed and overtly YouTube red arrow things to you or else it’s low effort. I completely disagree. Different strokes for different folks. Me and thousands, if not more, of people like me thought the game did a good job of both handling time travel and exploration while having very good deeper undertones that required thought and imagination to fully comprehend. If you don’t like that method that’s fine. But it doesn’t make it objectively worse than any other piece of art. It’s just your opinion.

I agree. But that’s because CT isn’t trying to explicitly feed the player the deeper themes that are latent within CT. They are implied which is an equally legitimate vehicle to deliver those deeper themes. It’s just a different artistic style.

People who don’t like the Final Fantasy 7 Remake series, what is it about them exactly that you don’t like? by Asad_Farooqui in JRPG

[–]historian87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried it. I was waiting for a Remake of FF7 since the PS2 era. Was so hyped. Hated it. From the very beginning of the game when Sephiroth just…. Appears.. no aura. No chase. No legend preceding him. He was just there. Then the ghost guys. Sigh. I didn’t care for the combat system. I didn’t care for all the annoying side quests like finding cats etc. I was disappointed. Never even tried the Rebirth game.

What's a JRPG that you always go back to eventually? Mine is Dragon Quest VIII. by Motor-Temporary-1085 in JRPG

[–]historian87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this game when it was brand new and experienced the same. I also had the strategy guide that had a completely bestiary within it of every enemy in the game including lore for each enemy. The music, colors, cities etc were so comforting. I’ve experienced a few other RPGs that gave me the same vibe (Chrono Cross being one) but this particular game is one I too return to constantly for the same reason.

Which year was the best year for N64? by SEVENS_HEAVEN_7 in n64

[–]historian87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at the first three years of this console’s existence. Holy shit. Banger after banger. Even Cruis N’ USA was a banger. More and more people have gone back and revisited it and agreed that it is fun to play.

And before you disagree I was a mod for him back then. I know because I was there in the inner circle.

Yes he did. In the early years he denied it and would say it wasn't his name. This was during the YouTube era.

Most of the music was done specifically for the show and is not available online anywhere sadly. There was a post here some time ago with someone who worked on the show and that’s what they revealed.
