Chrono / Gameplay Casual Discussion / Re: Thanks for Crimson Echoes.
« on: April 28, 2015, 07:17:23 pm »
I'm so glad someone made this thread, so I can gush about echoes to you guys. To me Echoes is almost as good as Chrono Trigger. I've only just turned 19, so I'm too young to have played Chrono Trigger when it came came out. I discovered the game thanks to a review done by a Youtuber called Kwing in 2008. It was love at first sight. The gameplay, graphics, story, art style, music and characters were all amazing, so I wanted more.
This is where Crimson Echoes came into my life. I discovered the project late in 2009 ironically because of the C/D controversy and was really crest fallen it was canceled so I took to the internet for a couple hours and was actually able to find a link to the leaked 98% beta. Actually the version I have is really odd now that I mention it, the link was gone the next day and it was leaked long before the leak that is currently going around the net. Also this version was more advance than the one on the CE memorial play-through as there was no level select. Regardless I played the hell out of it and to date have beaten it three times to date. I loved almost everything about it, the story was so awesome and it was very challenging. (Maybe too challenging, I mean OMG Dalton in the fall of Guardia chapter, the Vision serpent and the entire of the Marle alone chapters were freaking impossible without extreme grinding. Also that drum puzzle made me go crazy). I had so much fun seeing where the characters were going and it was a full game, not some glorified expansion pack. After I finished Crimson Echoes I was sad that I apparently couldn't play the new game plus but still it was great. King Zeal was so awesome BTW, he's in my top 10 villains of all time.
Later I discovered flames of eternity. I like how they want to finish the game and remove the glitches but why did they remove the CE developer cameos? That's so annoying to me. Also making Agent 12, Agent 51 with an odd accent is so dumb!! Also Glenn's accent is awful and they made dumb changes to the story like, letting Kino live. Finally why is Glenn a human? I mean it makes 0 sense, he's a frog at the end of CT.
Something I really want to do one day is finish CE but still have my version give credit to the CE staff. I want to add a title screen, balance the difficulty, remove the glitches, implement the unused sprites, make the New game plus work and finally add some side quests that can trigger an event where Magus turns Frog human for the rest of the game. Also I'd like to add a side quest that explains Norstien Beckler and a "happy" new game plus ending that has Schala rescued and doesn't lead to Chrono Cross, just for closure for people like me who don't like Chrono Cross. I've downloaded as many CT hacking programs as possible to try and do this but I have no idea how to use them or if they can be used to edit the version of CE I have.
I am curious, I know you guys made the human Glenn sprites used in Flames of Eternity but how was that going to work in CE? Would there be a point in the game where Magus would make him human? Because he's still human at the end of Trigger if Magus is still alive.
So any way thank you guys so much for making it, and yes ZeaLity if you ever decide to make a new project you can bet there would be a tonne of interest. (At least from me

Chrono Trigger: Prelude to a Dream RPGMaker Project / So Shift, Prelude and Alter are canceled?!
« on: March 04, 2015, 03:10:22 pm »
So I just saw that Chrono Shift and Chrono Trigger 2 Prelude to a Dream were under the abandoned projects page. To me this is sou crushing as I have been following there development for years now. I'm so disappointed but if this is true at least it means no more waiting. All I really want to know is why?

I'm so sad to hear this project is canceled, I've been following it since the start and made this account just to ask why?
