I've recently been on an old school RPG kick and picked up Chrono Trigger which is a phenomenal game. Any other suggestions on similar games?

Check out the "Tales Of" series. I feel those games don't get the attention they deserve

I haven't played tales of, but another modern game that gave me heavy chrono vibes is Chained Echoes. I've been loving it. Streamlined the right parts of jrpgs imo

I played that since it was free on XBox pass and loved it. Actually is the reason I picked up Chrono Trigger. I really hope the developer is able to create more games similar in nature. From what I understood it was just one person?

I have actually played a few of the more recent ones, Zestiria, Berseria, and Arise although I haven't finished the last one. I also picked up Trails in the Sky series from the last Steam sale and they are quite good.

Tales of Graces is my favorite followed closely by Symphonia. I would also recommend Lost Odyssey for 360.

Lost Odyssey was great!

Definitely try out Tales of Xillia if you get a chance.

I loved Xillia! I keep hoping against all odds they'll remaster it for modern platforms like Symphonia or Vesperia.
