Wow... This really makes you think..
>better game got better reviews
everything seems right with this
Chrono Cross is fantastic. Fuck Triggered babbys.
>still remember the shitstorm when Shane Betenhausen gave Chrono Cross a 9.5 in EGM while the other two reviewers gave it a 10
FF7 isn't even the best PSX Final Fantasy...

And yet time has proven that he was the less wrong of all.

How was XV allowed to get a score that high?

Only thing Chrono Cross does better is soundtrack.

To be fair, modern game critics are heavily biased against JRPGs.

Nice meme, good games get good reviews regardless of genre not a hard concept to grasp.

Persona 5 was fun to play, but the story was painfully mediocre. It's still a good game, but it's not that amazing.
>>378685848
breath of the shit is a sign of the opposite actually
and it's not a JRPG
it's a fucking zelda game which is more like action/adventure

>Look at me guyz, I'm so hipp and le edgy, I call it the PSX instead of the PS1 or PS, you know, because the A button is called X, right?
>>378685858
Persona always get overrated scores P4G has 93 for what? Some bootleg part 4 rip off with shot dungeons
>>378685392
times change

Too bad that FFXV wasn't even a JRPG
>>378686280
This.

You remind me of this guy I knew who swore on his life Chrono Cross was the greatest game of all time because he saw it in a top 10 games video on youtube.
>>378685392
But Xenoblade X is far better than XV, why is XV allowed anywhere near Xeno?
>>378682879
>Play Chrono Trigger
>Absolutely love it, everything about that game is just right, the flaws are minimal
>Play Chrono Cross
>Outside of music it is a god damn slog that has too many characters with too little to say and the game really likes to waste your time
If only the roster was cut by like two thirds and more interactions were added. You don't need this many fucking people especially if they have nothing to say.

It's almost like having a popular brand name lets you get away with anything...
If Zelda CDi/FF2 NES were reviewed today, they'd get at least 20 points added to their score for being "a fresh reminder of what made this series and my childhood special".
CC would not, as they barely broke 300k sales when it released. It's the classic that never was:

So they'd both get 20s?

P5 is the perfect game for today's millennial game critics. It's got tons of style, but virtually no substance.
>>378687370
They could have also, you know, made it about Crono and his friends.
Instead Kato wouldn't let go of Radical Dreamers because he REALLY REALLY liked the plot of it in his head. Did not translate well at all to a game, and yet he stuck with it for CC.

Great argument! Thank you for shitpost, phoneposter.
CC is an okay JRPG and a terrible Chrono sequel. You'll just have to live with that.
The reason why chrono cross makes people so mad is because it took the series to another level, one that many folks weren't able to get their head around.
For example, consider chess. Someone might love playing chess, but what happens if the game becomes 3-dimensional chess instead? Suddenly you lose a lot of people who can't really keep up. Trigger was great for the masses, but they had a bit more trouble with Cross.
