The locations are forgettable save the floating monetary at the end, but even that is repetitive. 4. You never acquire new party members 5. There are no side quests 6.

Also I didn’t really like the ost surprisingly. Theres not much i could point out that i enjoyed about the game. Too each his own though, i can see why some people do like it the same way i can see why some people enjoy legend of dragoon which I couldn’t finish but thought was much better than chrono cross.

The problem with Chrono Cross is that is has the Chrono name attached to it. People go into it thinking “Great. This is going to be all the things I loved about Chrono Trigger but just the next generation and more of it” What Chrono Cross did wrong is that it abandoned all the things that people liked about the previous title. People didn’t want them to expand the cast from 8-10 to 40; they wanted them to keep the tight knit group but expand using the technology to make them more fleshed out; more backstory, more quests personalized to them, more things for them to do, more interactions with other characters, posssibly voice acting and FMV cut scenes, there are many things they could have done with next generation consoles. Also the concept of time travel. The great thing about Chrono Trigger was that there was always a sense of familiarity with the world except the environment around it has been completely altered depending on the time frame. This provided basically completely different worlds to explore even though it was the same one each time. Chrono Cross chose not to expand upon that; when it could have really used the next generation power to really make for unique experiences. Like say for example you were going through an area and you can see a treasure in an area with a bunch of collapsed pillars but there is no way to get up to it. You go back in time 6,000 years and all the pillars are still standing but you don’t have a way to knock a pillar down. You go 10,000 years in the future and you get some explosives. You go back 10,000 years and blow up a pillar and it falls to a spot where if you go forward 6,000 years you can walk up it and get to the area with the treasure now. They could have had all kinds of cause and effect things like that happen in the world with a time travel element; and yes I understand that does exist in Chrono Cross, but it’s not a key focal point to exploration. And I don’t know why game companies do this kind of stuff. When you have a hit and people just want more of the game they already love; just give them more of that same thing just updated graphics and mechanics. People can bitch and complain about things like Madden 2021 for example... but guess what? They are going to buy it because it’s the same Madden that has been put out 21 times before it just updated.

However in his defense I can see his viewpoint about these games. I just can’t agree with them. Although lots of people don’t like to admit it, the reason why there is hate about Crono Cross is because it was not a sequel to Trigger and sadly that fact that it wasn’t just turned people off. I don’t think it mattered how good the game was. They didn’t get what they wanted so they took their frustrations out on Cross by turning against it. Maybe he falls in this camp? I can agree that Tales of Legendia wasn’t the best tales game but maybe he really doesn’t care for random surprise battles? I can see that. Isn’t this one of the few if not the only Tales game that has this? With Ar Tonileco, we already know he is gay, so maybe the parts with the women in the game were a turnoff for him? Xenosaga 2 wasn’t that great but unlike him the story kept me going to beat it. 80 hours to beat it? I thinking he was determined to do those bad side quests but didn’t have an online guide. So without that guide and doing those quests I can certainly see why his opinion on the game is very low and why it took him so long. I do agree with him on Atlier and Harvest Moon. I can’t get into them, at all. Erick Landon is my top choice as well. I wouldn’t have discovered the greatness that is Eternal Sonata if it wasn’t for Erick.

The problem with CC is... 1). The battle system. I don't know what they were thinking. All of the characters seem terrible and weak as hell except Glenn and Serge, they hit like pool noodles. 2). The character progression system is terrible. Only getting "levelups" at bosses forces a set difficulty on the player. If you want to make the game easier? Nope, can't do that. Want to make it harder? You'd have to impose challenges upon yourself, or something. Oh, and random stat gains only when killing bosses is puke-worthy. If you get a bad levelup, have fun fighting the boss again to hopefully get a better one this time. 3). Having to set and re-set characters' spells every time someone new joins your party is bleh. Yeah they got an auto-fill option, but it's still kinda meh. I think CC would have been a much better game if they would have kept the format from Chrono Trigger and maybe toned down the sheer number of characters that joined your group, seriously you don't need every Tom, Dick, and Sue joining your group.

Eternal Mana or the original installment was the best in the franchise.

Tales of Graces f: having almost no villains in that game really annoyed the shit out of me. Aside from the bland evil uncle character, there was Richard being brainwashed by a character whose motivations just confuse me, a guy we kill immediately after confronting him, a surprise villain who just turns evil out of nowhere, and then a villain who was clearly just added to the epilogue. There was nobody else. The Tales series is generally really good at having entertaining recurring villains to liven up the story. Graces just felt like a slog not having them.

Haha, I finished Tales of Legendia and I actually love it. At first I also thought it's just so-so but then it gets better. It has a lot of funny moments, and after the ending comes each character's past. They were actually really touching for me. I was sad when it's finally about the last character and they said goodbye. The soundtrack for the touching part also gets me, it was quite memorable. Atelier Arland series is more about casual gameplay I think 😅 I haven't finish Totori but I have finished Rorona and Meruru I think Rorona is more a game you play when you have no other game, so that it won't feel boring 😅 As for Meruru, I like it, has a lot of things to do, watching the kingdom slowly grows from your effort is the part I find the most satisfying 😌 also the part when you can overcome strong opponents. So, maybe we all can conclude that one game is not for all. A game boring for you may be fun for others.

So.... obligatory 7th Saga Hint Post! *1: Look up who will get the Star Rune, and make sure this apprentice is not who you want. For example if you start as Kamil, Olvaan will always get the Star Rune. But, if you recruit him before going to Melenam, then it falls to Lejes. Bonus Hint, Lejes' AI can be cheesed. He will always cast Defense Down until you are at the lowest defense possible. Use B-Protects to raise your Defense until he misses, then use a B.Power, and then get your defense back up and wait for him to miss again. Defend, Attack and hope he dies in one shot. This works no matter what level you are. If you have the Star Rune, then Lejes is a pushover because you can do this infinitely but if you're fighting him for the star rune, you'll need to do some save scumming hoping he will miss enough times before you run out of bottles (since you can only carry 9). *2: You never, ever, ever have to fight a single Apprentice with the exception of the one who gets the Star Rune. If an apprentice has a rune you want, save at the inn. If they want to fight, reload and fight 5-10 battles and ask them again, and keep doing that until they join your group. *3: *DO NOT XP GRIND WITH A PARTNER!* The game splits XP earned between the two of you. Want fast levelups? Have your partner die and then go out and fight alone on some weaker enemies. You get (slightly) less XP but the battles will be easy and *ALL* of the XP goes to your main hero. To level your partner up, recruit a new partner and then find your old partner and re-recruit him using the tips from #2. EDIT: And if you want, I got a Let's Play of 7th Saga on my channel, where I get to Level 78 (which is absolutely overkill) in 25 hours right before you go back in time. I need to finish that playthrough. 25h is not that bad for almost max level in what they call "the grindiest RPG" (hardly).

The Music was comparable, the plot was comparable but better in SDIII, due to the greater variety and double the cast of characters. The graphics were better, the art style was much better, and the most better was the gameplay. That game's still freakin' fun in 2022, and I doubt it'll ever lose it's appeal.

Or, for that matter, Advance Wars or Actraiser.

Back when I bought the game it was literally marketed as a “farming RPG”, they didn’t market it as a simulation game until later.

Xenosaga 2 is still my biggest let down of an rpg.

Its friggin plot holes galore, I still consider episode 1 as the complete story in presentation, episode 2 went out with nonsense fillers and plot holes making the lore even more confusing, and episode 3 did not really resolved that much of what was presented in the previous game.

@@rdu239 The fact that the DS version was apparently more true to the original version and that we never got it is truely depressing

Can't say much about the list, didn't play most of them. At some point I thought I had to play as many JRPGs as possible but lack of time always got in the way. But recently there is a superloved JRPG that got me bored: Persona 5. Going to the palaces was boring after you discover the weakness of the enemies and then you have to go fighting them for a long time. Then you have to leave and go back another day to repeat everything again... Oh man, at the time I never paid so much for a normal game and even so I just gave up on trying after starting the 3rd palace.

Loved this. Love your personality touch in this vid :D

I heard the Japanese version, Aquatallion, is supposed to have more of a story to it. But I agree. It just felt so dull.

7:36 Hi David, just wanted to let you know the bookmark tag for this section says "ArcheAge" instead of Ar Tonelico

Opoona is one of my favorite RPGs on the Wii. For me, exploring the game's towns, finding secrets, and vibing to the music feels great. In a weird way, it reminds me of a JRPG, child-friendly version of Mass Effect. The battle system is very unique and challenging in some parts. I was first drawn to the game because it was made by Arte Piazza, the developers of the remakes of Dragon Quest IV-VII and they even made the 2D mode in DQXI S. I won't deny that the mundane and MANDATORY jobs you have to do to progress are boring and a blemish on an otherwise good game.

Over the course of how long?! I don't believe you.

I know, when I heard that too I had to rewind just to make sure I heard that right! David does not give off the appearance or the personality of being 40 😂

I respect your opinion on everything but Chrono cross. You’re just wrong there.

I was bored to tears playing Chrono Cross and I loved Trigger. The blandest characters ever. Chrono Cross was what I feared Suikoden was going to be when i first heard about it- putting in lifeless characters to day you have a lot.

This and beyond the beyond are some of the only games I never bothered finishing, it literally could not get me to care about the story or the three billion interchangeable characters.
