Wonder what that means. I didn't notice a difference in the video lol
Chrono Cross remaster announced for Switch, PC, PS4, XBO. Releases April 7th 2022
- Thread starter Wrexis
- Start date
Don't really care about a remaster, but I definitely would buy if they made it 60 or solid 30fps.
Yeah. Normal battles give you small stat increments e few times for each level you attain, so skipping them would mean your characters won't reach their individual caps for HP, strength and so on. The whole game will still be completely beatable, but some difficulty spikes might feel a tad higher because of that.
No random encounters should be standard for all jrpg Remasters. Makes revisiting them infinitely better. Imagine Lost Odyssey with an option to turn off random battles
Yes but I would recommend playing it (it's short and easy) or watching a story recap.
*Edit: and then maybe watching a entire plot summary to really get it.
Very excited to play for my first time. I knew Honne was the art director on it but I still couldn't stop myself from going "wait that's just Baten Kaitos!" here:
Ehhhh, I was expecting much better than this. I was looking at the trailer posted in the OP and thinking why was the original trailer posted until I saw '2022' in the end..This game deserved a lot more efforts. No wonder it's going for $20 because they didn't bother much. I mean just look at those AI upscaled backgrounds. Imagine if the game would look like that, in 60fps.
But it is what it is, I hope it will bring us a new Chrono game later on, maybe Chrono Break.

Is it me or is the FPS rough as fuck in the battle scenes? Couldn't they have done something... anything to make that smoother?
I'm not asking for them to painstakingly redraw every single backgrounds but if some modders can make FF7 run at 60 FPS surely SE could have done something for this game right?

I'm totally getting this yes!!
I never expected this to be anything more than the FFVIII treatment, so I'm mostly fine with how it looks...but it a shame if modders have to come in to improve the upscaling AI.
Years??
Chrono Cross backgrounds appreciation
AI upscaled so maybe something is lost from the originals (around signs and similar anyway) but otherwise what's not to enjoy? Full gallery

say what?!
Why didn't FFVII to IX get all this?!
I wonder if they've touched up the English script. There were a few unfortunate mistranslations in it.
The fan translation took some liberty with the original script. The original was kinda crazy, there's a passage where Magus demonstrates karate skills out of nowhere
Why can't SE just release consistent remasters? Some games get way more love than others. Like what the fuck? Background Filter??? Why not AI upscale it??? Why isn't it the default choice. Fans out here using it for all sorts of shit no problem but a big ass company can't be ass'd to? Even though they have already used it before? Raise your fuckin standards SE holy fuck. There should be a base line to all your remasters and yet the quality is all over the place for whatever reason.
Well at least it came out at all, unlike Chrono Break lol. He probably changed his mind after all these years without any possibility of a new Chrono
I first played Cross when I was like 7 and I didn't play Trigger until I was in College. You absolutely can.
I am disappointed they're not AI upscaling. But on the other hand:
- It's $20
- qol features
- Radical Dreamers
- Revised soundtrack? I don't even know what this means but more Mitsuda is a good thing. Maybe they'll touch up the battle theme so every other post in the OT isn't whining about it
- Supporting the series
- The only other legal means of buying it is on the PS3 store and this will probably be better overall for not much more

Yes. There are some fan translations but it's the first official release.
Time's Scar was probably left alone because it had already been recorded with live instruments.
This dude says he's working on the Front Mission 1st remake, so unless they have multiple remake teams or something Forever Entertainment probably isn't working on this
The Radical Dreamers official release is probably the best part lol
