Chrono / Gameplay Casual Discussion / Chrono sequel - Let's cross the dimensions for a sec
« on: May 25, 2009, 07:33:01 pm »
*Holds up Astral Amulet*
Let's cross the dimensions for a second.
Let's say there's a parallel world out there where Square Enix loves their Chrono fans and made a new Chrono game.
How would you like it to be?
Main questions:
- New location? If yes, what kind of setting would it have to be?
- New cast of characters? If yes, what kind of characters would you like to see?
- New Lavos creature or a new version of Lavos? Or an entirely new enemy? Who should be the antagonist in this game?
- Time travel and / or dimension crossing? Yes or no? Or something completely new? If yes, what?
- New gameplay or not? New battle system? New magic? Also let's hear any good gameplay ideas you have.
- Who would have to draw the characters? Do you want Mr. Toriyama back, or Nobuteru? Or someone else?
- Name the characters who would definitely, no matter what, have to make a cameo appearance. Can be anything, from playable characters to NPC's to Nu's.
- Which time period has to be in it no matter what?
I'd like you all to answer these questions seriously. Also, if you know any other good questions, tell me and I'll add them to the main post.
Here's my own quick list of answers, I'll go into detail later when discussion gets heated up.
- New location? If yes, what kind of setting would it have to be?
Yes, a new location. I'd like to think that the planet is bigger then the Zenan mainland and El Nido. But, it would also be good to visit old locations again. But definitely a new location on top of it. As for the setting: Winter. The only snow we ever see is in 12,000 BC and Death Peak, and snow towns would be pretty awesome imo.
- New cast of characters? If yes, what kind of characters would you like to see?
Yeah, a new cast. Just like Cross did. Not so many playable characters though. While there are new characters I would like them to resemble the previous characters. Like a possible love interest between two main characters for example. (Chrono-Marle, Serge-Kid, you know).
- New Lavos creature or a new version of Lavos? Or an entirely new enemy? Who should be the antagonist in this game?
New antagonist. We've seen Lavos by now. I'm really not sure what kind of antagonist it would have to be though. Need to think more about this.
- Time travel and / or dimension crossing? Yes or no? Or something completely new? If yes, what?
I say time travel still in there, but no dimension crossing. Also something new would be good, but I'm not quite sure what.
- New gameplay or not? New battle system? New magic? Also let's hear any good gameplay ideas you have.
I'd like the traditional Trigger battles, no elements stuff, but I wouldn't mind off-screen battles.
- Who would have to draw the characters? Do you want Mr. Toriyama back, or Nobuteru? Or someone else?
Much as I love Toriyama, Nobuteru's portrayal of Serge and Kid has attracted me even more. I say Nobuteru.
- Name the characters who would definitely, no matter what, have to make a cameo appearance. Can be anything, from playable characters to NPC's to Nu's.
Belthasar, Toma, Nu's obviously, Johnny, Gaspar, Melchior maybe, Chrono Marle & Lucca (big maybe though)
- Which time period has to be in it no matter what?
1999 AD, 2400 AD
Now let's hear your answers.
The point of this topic? Well, I'm trying to get the spirits up. While it's unlikely Square Enix will ever make a new Chrono game, we can still dream about how it would be like if they did. This is also a good topic for potential fan projects out there, now you can get to know what the fans want.

General Discussion / So... Do you dream?
« on: April 11, 2009, 06:00:41 pm »
Yeah kinda wondering about this.
All right let's cut it up in questions to make it easier:
- Do you dream (often) ?
- What do you dream about?
- While dreaming, are you lucid (often) ? - (Lucid means that while you're dreaming, you're aware that you're dreaming, and that you could wake up any moment)
- Do you remember your dreams well?
Well, I think that'll do nicely. As for myself, I hardly ever dream, which I just hate. I'd love to dream more, but it just doesn't happen. Oh well.

Chrono / Gameplay Casual Discussion / Crimon Echoes question
« on: April 09, 2009, 07:25:59 am »
In CE it's said Glenn creates the vanguard somewhere after 600 AD, but that doesn't really add up with the 1000 AD of the original CT, where no Vanguard is present. Does CE play in another timeline or something, or is there another explanation for this?
Basically, between 600 and 1000 AD, nothing can really be different from the original CT. At least I think. I'd like someone to shed some light on this.

Characters, Plot, and Themes / Dalton and the Blackbird
« on: April 08, 2009, 11:01:23 am »
Well, as we all know, Belthasar designed the Blackbird. But he didn't actually build it. In fact, it was Dalton who oversaw the construction of the Blackbird in 12,000 BC, which means he had the blueprints.
Now then, I wondered; perhaps Dalton engineered a second Blackbird after the first one fell? Perhaps he used it against Guardia.
It's yet another thing to explain how Porre won over Guardia. We already noted the elements of El Nido, Dragonian artifacts, maybe the Sun Stone, and other stuff. But perhaps he also constructed a new Blackbird in Porre.
It's a long shot, but hey it's possible right?

Chrono Compendium Discussion / Chrono Cross Demonic Masamune artwork
« on: December 01, 2008, 05:00:46 am »
I noticed the artwork on the page for the Masamune for the demonic version in Chrono Cross isn't really clear and a pretty bad picture. Anyway I browsed through the CC artwork on my own PC and found a better picture. I guess maybe you can add or replace it.

Characters, Plot, and Themes / So, what happens to the queen...
« on: December 01, 2008, 04:39:00 am »
I wonder what in fact happened to ol' Queenie Zeal? She just disappeared, but it didn't seem like she died or whatever.
Would you guys wanna see her in a sequel as potential good or bad guy?
Personally I'd like her to return in a new sequel as a good character where she joins up with Schala and Janus and she apologises for everything and they live happily ever after

Chrono Trigger Modification / Changing dialogue in CT (Snes)
« on: November 30, 2008, 03:37:01 pm »
How is it done? With TF or something? And how does that work? Is it easy?
I'd like to translate the Snes rom to my native language, but I don't know how. I don't know if it's easy or hard, so I hope someone can enlighten me.

History, Locations, and Artifacts / Zurvan, the Sea of Dreams
« on: November 27, 2008, 11:24:34 am »
Schala talks in the CC ending how all dreams eventually return to Zurvan, the Sea of Dreams. Anyone know more about this? Did they just throw it in randomly to sound interesting? Or could it be an actual place? Is there a possible relationship between this place and the Dream Devourer? Maybe it's the home of the Dream creatures Masa, Mune, and Doreen?
Wikipedia says that Zurvan means time in Avestan language.

Anyone know how to play Chrono Cross on a PSP? I'm thinking of getting one, but only if I can play CC on it

Chrono Compendium Discussion / Race Log
« on: November 26, 2008, 10:48:38 am »
Yeah on the item page for Race Log it says it's automatically obtained. But actually to get it you need to walk through Lab 32 without using the Jet Bike and get it from a chest.
Just thought I'd mention it
Edit: Also, on the Blackbird page, the image "Blackbird Wing & Ports.png" is broken...

Chrono Trigger DS Analysis / Fritz = Man who wrote note in 2300 AD, somehow
« on: November 26, 2008, 09:22:03 am »
Somehow Fritz who is almost being executed in 1000 AD is related to the man who wrote the note in 2300 AD. I don't know how, but this time around I didn't save him, and there is NO note in the sewers in 2300 AD. If you leave him alive, there's a note that says how a man can't defeat the monsters and would have preferred the guillotine.
I don't know how it's possible, but these two events are related. Was it maybe a descendant of Fritz? Did Fritz... time travel?

Characters, Plot, and Themes / Enmity
« on: November 26, 2008, 04:01:53 am »
After briefly playing CC again it occured strange to me that Lynx talked about enmity after attaining Serge's body. What did he mean by that? At first I didn't even know what it meant, but I read somewhere it means "to be an enemy" or something like that. Does he mean the real Serge is becoming his enemy again..? Or what?
Quote from: Lynx, Fort Dragonia
The enmity is growing... The only thing pure in this world is enmity.

Chrono Cross Modification / Chrono Cross Boss models
« on: November 25, 2008, 09:27:04 pm »
I noticed there is a Time Devourer model on the Compendium page from Chrono Cross. I was wondering, is it possible to get more boss models? Specifically the six Dragons and the Dragon God. I don't know who ripped the TD model, but perhaps more could be done. I for one would like to see them.

Chrono Trigger DS Analysis / Heh Chrono
« on: November 24, 2008, 07:51:06 pm »
We all know how Chrono's name is translated to Crono in the english versions. HOWEVER. Here comes the developer's ending when you talk to the Frog King sprite:
Interesting how they call him Chrono there.
Just a funny lil' thing I though I should share for those who care
Quote from: Fumi Nakashima
Did you see the little character animations on the world map, ribbit? There's Lucca reading a book, Chrono all in a rush... Know what I'm talking about, ribbit?

Chrono / Gameplay Casual Discussion / Where does the Magus clone go?
« on: November 22, 2008, 03:13:46 pm »
I won a Magus clone at the Millennial Fair 
But it said it was sent to his house. Where is that, actually? I don't remember Magus having a house after his castle got destroyed.
