[DS] Chrono Trigger DS - Retards complaining about a new optional ending. Fun inside!

I have a theory regarding this new ending and the players shown to be involved. Hopefully this is enough text to block the preview aaaaaand:

Spoiler:

Crono, Marle, and Frog have been shown in the preview pictures along with Magus in front of a Time Portal. I'd easily wager that they fight that new final boss, end up losing even though they drop its HP. Crono and Marle disappear, Frog possibly gets corrupted or something and starts murdering people with the Masamune... bam, instant link to Chrono Cross.

THAT, or Crono and Marle and Frog succeed and save Schala and Chrono Cross never happens. Either way, I see the former happening rather than the latter. Which I'll just feel free to call stupid because Chrono Cross is garbage.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

It's YouTube, chief.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The new ending inspires only rage in my heart given how stupid it is from a story telling standpoint.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Masato Kato didn't help matters on that end, what with saying it wasn't a sequel and addressing some of the nerd backlash/backpedaling. New translation is tight. New ending is gay, and I see a certain someone who likes changing thread titles couldn't help but let us know that he, too seeks the penis.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I take it constructive answers are lost on you, Slash.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

You know what, Diss taken back because that was stupid of me... honestly, if it were solely anyone's fault in the matter, then Chrono Cross wouldn't be as complicated a topic as far as games go. I'd say it's both. Kato said it wasn't meant to be a direct sequel in interviews but Square at the time marketed it as a sequel and it was all a giant cluster fuck from there.

I realize some folks don't always "get" Chrono Cross' story, but there's a reason for that. If it were so cut and dry and well told, Chrono Compendium wouldn't exist for the purpose it does.

FELIPE NO

The anime cutscenes were around since the PSX days, though I never bought Final Fantasy Chronicles and played that at the expense of a friend. The alternate dungeons have been pretty cool thus far. Seeing Cross again wouldn't be bad depending on how they handled it. No, I don't like the original Cross, but that's an exhaustive argument waiting to happen considering people either want to revise history or play the polarity game.

They've added a lot of beefy new equipment, I'm kind of surprised honestly. Chrono Trigger was never that hard of a game, this new stuff really seems like overkill.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I've managed to run through it at a decent pace, 13 hours and I'm already toward end game quests going at a nice pick up and put down pace. It's definitely not a hard game, though the first run is usually always the best in terms of enjoyment for players. Then you can just bulldoze your way through any boss that generally required a strategy. Vulnerable only to magic? High level spell. Need to destroy a certain part of the enemy? Hammer it with your best moves and high level equipment. New Game+ is fun like that, but it does eventually take the appeal away once you've done everything.

Where's everyone at in this game, anyway? Already beaten it? Thoughts on the new dungeons?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The Dimensional Rift in 65,000,000 B.C. is available once you finish up the Kingdom of Zeal/Blackbird portion of the game. So going through there yields some stuff. The way it's available doesn't really hurt anything, I just think it adds on to already destructive uber equipment. But that's just for the main game, the new side bosses and what not may just call for this stuff for some players.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
