And? Chrono Trigger has a beautiful story, beautiful art, beautiful music, brilliant gameplay mechanics, great characters, phenomenal sidequests, and that's barely scratching the surface.

No one is saying Legend of Mana is bad. We're just saying that it's not as good as Chrono Trigger. Which is nothing to be ashamed of.
This overrating of Chrono Trigger is getting quite ridiculous, actually. It just tells me that people haven't played enough RPGs.

That said, I just started a new game on the DS version because it's a relatively easy and short game that I can beat in less than 2 days.
I probably do overrate Chrono Trigger (I've never attempted to hide that I consider it the greatest game of all time), but I didn't in that post. All of those statements were true.

If you're beating it in less than two days, you're playing it wrong. In fact, if you beat any RPG in less than two days, you're playing it wrong. No wonder you're not enjoying it if you're just rushing through to the end. RPGs are about immersion, living in the world, exploring, roleplaying, talking to people, doing sidequests... Watching the world come to life.
