Which brings me to cross's biggest problem. An insanely large roster that had no reason what so ever to exist.Originally Posted by The Man
The combat definitely wasn't as good as CT's either, but let's face it, having a combat system as awesome as CT's would've been pretty much impossible. I do wish that they'd at least kept the triple techs, but then again with as many characters as CC had that probably would've been impossible without requiring at least three discs, given all the extra data that'd be required for animating them.I would disagree with that, but that's largely because I really, really, REALLY hated the combat in CC. I may have to go back and try playing it again someday to give it another shot, but I couldn't even bring myself to get halfway through when I last tried playing. It was easily one of my most hated RPG battle systems though, and that was back in the days when I had an easier time forgiving that stuff.Chrono Cross was only bad in comparison to Chrono Trigger. In comparison to the average RPG it was probably quite a bit better.
That out of the way, I didn't like Cross much the first time I'd played it, passing it off as a sub-par RPG. Second time I played it, and the shining glory eyes I viewed Trigger in were put away, I can say I find this an above average RPG, and a release worthy of my time and effort that did plenty more right then it did wrong.
