Now in my attempt to get this back on topic

It would be totally sweet if the "we" refers to Prophet Magus and Schala. C'mon everyone, you know that if Magus and Schala teamed up, they could totally clean up. Why, justin3009 is already positing Magus/Schala double techs...

I have no idea why a victorious Schala would just happen to be sucked up by the Dream/Time Devourer though, so yeah.

The "we" that is mentioned could be an alternate version of Chrono and his friends. If it happened to be Magus and Schala though she could have been acquired into it when they thought they finished it off. Though some how I don't see Magus and Schala defeating Lavos alone. Since Lavos has an ability to drain a person's magical ability. So that could be quite bad for those who rely on it more than physical attacks.

No worries  :D. Although, after 24 pages I doubt there's much more analysis that we could do. Probably not until Ultimania comes out.

Wouldn't be so sure on the pages. Seems FaustWolf is moving posts out. Shame a few are mine, but it can't be helped.

What can we analyze about CTDS that either hasn't been analyzed already or is being analyzed in another thread? If there's nothing (even if Ultimania has something), then this thread is pretty much dead until something does come up.

Well I'd like to see more analysis of the Lost Sanctum, but it seems everyone pretty much despises it.

Many of the veteran Compendium theorists haven't had the opportunity to properly parse everything out due to all the mayhem. Let's keep it on topic from here on out, capiche? New theory articles will need to be written based on the material in this thread, so we must keep it as clean as possible from now on.

Probably because of the confusing missions they send you on. I wanna see them for myself.

Got it.

I'd like to see a definite answer on the 1999 AD world map. A walk through walls code has been posted somewhere, but at this point I'm uncapable of using AR codes myself. Besides, I don't know it the code is for the japanese or USA release.

Isn't that the map used by the Day of Lavos ending?

Yeah, but there's the possibility they made a full 1999 AD world map. If they did, I want to see it.

Something else - any dropped/unused dialogue that may still exist in the game's text. There's always the possibility of some 'beta' material. Oh, and if we're really lucky, there's still the possibility of extra features/areas unlocked via a future wi-fi download link of some sort, like Pokemon D/P/P has with Battle Revolution.

In the Lost Sanctum i recall a Reptite asking for Lumicite.

Anyone figure out what's up with that?

If I remember right he makes you a weapon or armor if you bring it to him. And I believe you can charm the Lumicite of a monster in the LS somewhere.

I posted this in the "New Dungeon Maps" thread. Has anyone seen this text in-game?
Quote
このセカイにワタシはヒトリでいい…
アナタはキエなさい!{end}

One of me is all this world needs.
Begone, for all eternity!

{Marle}「…戦うしか、ないのね。
  私もここでやられるわけには
  いかない!!{end}

{Marle}: I guess...I guess I have to fight you.
I don't want to be gone for all eternity!

---
アナタさえいなけレバ…
キエテしまいナサイ!

You are all that stands in the way...
You must die!

(I don't have the complete Japanese line yet)

{Lucca}: So much for getting along...
Looks like we have some irreconcilable differences
to take care of, doesn't it?

Edit: Adjusted formatting to match game.

I tried using my translator to see what it actually means, but it screwed up.

Fascinating find, Vehek! The words "begone for all eternity!" makes me think this is something Marle would have encountered in the Darkness Beyond Time when she was briefly erased from the timeline. However, Lucca's apparent presence unravels that. Could this be some kind of unused clone dialogue? It seemed that Crono's clone had a bit more pre-encounter dialogue than either Marle's or Lucca's. Maybe those two clones were meant to speak originally?
