Obviously, somethings on the overworld are blown up, and out of proportion.  Thats because they have to be.  Your party for example, has to, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see them.  Same with houses.  They have to be blown up, so you can see to get inside them.

But for the most part, things on the overworld try to stay proportional in at least some ways.  Mountains are big on the overworld, because SUPRISE, they are supposed to be big.  Same could be said of Domes and such.  Lavos is shown to be big on the overworld because (you'll never believe this!) hes supposed to be big!  WOW!
This is the most retarded logic I've heard. It's just an excuse so you can say "lol i think its big so its big".
Why don't you try something smarter and compare the Lavos1 sprite to the Death Peak map? They're both in the same scale, so you won't have to use that fucked up logic to prove your points.

This made me lol btw. =D


You're an asshole O_o and your argument is flawed. Atleast Sentenal is providing evidence. You're just going "NUH UH!" With some LOL's and excessive arrogance.

How many times must I restate this... Lavos is a parasite. Whether he is from a race, higher order, or on his own, he is a parasite. A parasite must suck out life from its host, but must not kill it. The reason there still is an Earth and some life is because of the fact Lavos would die without a host to inhabit.


Who says Lavos would die without a planet? He seemed just fine grooving out in space until he wanted to have brats of his own. And a parasite can leave a host to die without killing it directly after they don't need it anymore. Just like what Lavos did. Come on, people, why is this even worth debating? Just look at 2300 AD. It's hell. It's DEAD, or atleast dying. It's only a matter of time before all those machines run out of energy and the robots and humans alike die out. Then the mutants and monsters would waste away unless they resort to cannibalism, and even then, their energy will widdle down.

Oh, fresh meat.

I know you might believe you're superior, but news flash, you're not, son. Treat people with respect, they might have something smart to say. It's not 'Fucked up logic', it's his opinion, and it applies just as much as yours.

Seriously, who do you think you are? We all come here to discuss the Chrono series, not to have our opinions mocked and get ourselves stepped on. That's his opinion, you disagree with it, and that's just fine. But you crossed a thin line.

I actually support Sentenal's opinion. Yes, not everything's up to scale. What do you want, to have a real size Crono and real size houses and castles? It's a Planet, mind you, and the graphics weren't as good as they are today, so they had to have smaller graphics.

Besides, what applies for CT applies for... hmm... EVERY RPG WITH A WORLD MAP.

I didn't want to bring this up, but you're not one to talk about assholeness. =)

So you want me to back up my statements? k
Melchior's hut is the size of 2 Cronos and half.
Do you really think that Lavos is bigger than Death Peak?

Hmm, you bring a pic that's smaller then it's actual size into a screen that's rather accurate?

That's Lavos' mouth, not his entire body.

And you better watch it. Aura might be sarcastic, but he's not as rude as you.

Yeah, you are a complete ass.

And jackass, the only sprite where we see all of Lavos is his overworld sprite.  We don't see all of him in his stage-sprite.  We see Lavos's mouth, and thats it.

Hey not my fault if you take this personally. o_O

No, I simply wanted you to use logic instead of bullshit. Why compare apples and oranges when you can compare it with other apples?

It's actually the normal size. o_O

No I don't.


Something gives me the other feeling.

Oh, I'm not taking it personally. I just hate people like you. The moment someone says something you don't like you call them morons instead of having an actual, calm debate.

Because we want to see if the apple and the orange are the same size? @_@  If Lavos IS Death Peak, they should be the same size... Why should the game be cheap on Lavos' overworld size? After all, you'd want to see Crono, but you could do without seeing Lavos.

Last time I checked, Lavos KINDA takes the whole screen.

Ah I tohught you were talking about the first pic.
That was the point of the second pic anyway. To show that Death Peak is bigger than Lavos. Note: Lavos' sprite and Death Peak are at their SNES normal resolution. (320x224)

Jackass, maybe you misses this before, but that Lavos' sprite you keep taking about is only his mouth.  It doesn't show his entire body.

You know, the shell isn't part of the sprite, it's part of the backdrop. The mouth is Lavos' sprite.

What was this for, you might ask? To prove you only see Lavos' front. When looked from behind, Lavos can be the size of a... WOW, the size of a MOUNTAIN!

Don't you people try to lecture me about sprites and SNES bgs. I'm pretty sure I know about that more than you. =P I used the word "sprite" simply because I thought you people didn't know. *shrug*

This surely looks like a mountain.

Therein lies your worst trait. Even if you do, you don't know us, so don't make assumptions.

Because you didn't make assumptions at all.
Anyways, stop getting offtopic, shall we?

Stop ditching my friends, shall you?

We DID make assumptions. We assumed Lavos' shell is Death Peak.

...You have nothing in that picture to compare it to, size wise.

Even at that early state, Lavos's was big enough to cause an ice age with his impact.

Oh yes, I thought you might want to read up on this a bit as well: http://www.chronocompendium.com/Forums/viewtopic.php?t=1445
