A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Left feeling a bit empty after playing it for the first time a few months ago(why did I wait so long?) I am afraid no JRPG will be able to surpass it. Would love to have a discussion about similar games that reach the same quality level (Note: I have already played Final Fantasy VI ).

Really good final fantasy of the era, but not a real sequel to Chrono trigger.

Pop quiz, who's the final boss of Chrono Cross?

As I recall it's the time devourer which is lavos after merging with part of schala, but it takes more than a final boss to make something a real sequel to another thing.

So the fundamental theme of scratching back our destiny from our own self-destructive nature isn't a 1:1 match?

You're free to disagree and think it's a perfect sequel that has everything you ever wanted out of a chrono trigger sequel. Lots of people like it. I just don't feel that it's a real sequel.
