Got a party without Crono. Am I correct in thinking he can't be removed from the party except when the plot removes him? Been a while since I played CT.

You're correct. You're stuck with him pretty much until the endgame unlocks. I guess it's up to you whether you let him do anything in battle; IIRC dead PCs revive at the end of combat with 1HP?

I found some cheats for the SNES version if you're using an emulator to set your characters to whomever, but the game doesn't really cope well with them. Messing around with a Marle/Frog/Robo party leads to some pretty weird stuff in the Millenial Fair, to the point where I teleported Marle off, managed to leave, then softlocked the game when trying to teleport Marle agian. Might be worth doing for laughs, though. At your own risk... Position 1: 7E2980:?? Position 2: 7E2981:?? Position 3: 7E2982:?? Replace ?? with the following for each character: 00 - Crono 01 - Marle 02 - Lucca 03 - Robo 04 - Frog 05 - Ayla 06 - Magus

I got Lucca/Robo/Ayla So I got Demolitions Girl, a goddamn robot who can heal and blast in equal measure, and the cavewoman who could probably suplex TWO trains whenever they get invented. I can deal with this.  EDIT: So do they allow for swapping out characters for sidequests? Like, say, what if I want to do the Rainbow Shell event at Guardia Castle that requires Marle? Should I swap her in for a random character or would any rules-hounds prefer to skip the event entirely? Bufuman fucked around with this message at 20:13 on Dec 21, 2017 |

I guess the bot and the creator's accounts both have me muted for some reason. I've tried multiple times, from different devices, apps, and even the website, and nothing. Oh well. Have fun, guys!

Is your Twitter timeline private? That'll gently caress it up. Make a public sockpuppet account to use, that's what I do.

Yeah, that was brought up upthread. Less redundantly, remember that RK (the runner of these sites and Gilg's creator/maintainer) lives in Japan, so this is early morning for him. Not getting a reply right away doesn't mean you're shadowbanned or anything, just that he's probably asleep.

I got Frog/Robo/Magus. Pretty nice for covering all the bases, though it's not that specialized a party as some. (It's also the very first one I beat the game with.)Virulence posted:Crono, Lucca, Magus. In more general news, this guide has some discussion on mechanics, in particular on how defensive stats only start mattering near the caps and on which double/triple techs are best for damage (as they nearly all inherit multipliers from their component single techs).

WaltherFeng posted:Now I really want FFXII fiesta. Theres 12 jobs available so randomizing them can lead to some funky parties. Also depending whether you use single or dual job system I originally thought it wouldn't work due to time, but ignoring completionism it looks like FFV is about 4 (speedrun) to 30 (normal) hours long while FFXII is 6 (speedrun) to 60 (normal) hours long. Both games can now be played with fast forward features. It's a worse ratio for completionist runs but the whole point of the Fiesta is to kill those grinding, elixer-hoarding tenancies that get in the way of interacting with the mechanics and enjoying the game. I figure at this point the main obstacles are 1. RK has some questionable taste and thus hates everything Matsuno was involved in 2. Zodiac Age is a PS4 exclusive, which gives it a much smaller player base than a 25 year old game that runs on just about anything I'd give it a few years.

dis astranagant posted:I say meh at a party that doesn't exist for 90% of the game. To be fair, that applies to every party that doesn't have Crono assigned to it, since he's locked in your first slot for basically 90% of the game, down to maybe 75% if you factor in endgame sidequests.

Playing this run on the DS version, and I just want to say that even years later, this is still one of my favorite JRPG lines ever. God bless the updated translation.

I will never turn down an excuse to replay Chrono Trigger after a few years away from it, even if it's the time of year where a new game influx hits me.

Microcline posted:What's the definitive version? SNES? That or the DS version. Compared to the SNES, DS version has a few extras, like an updated translation (which is a love/hate thing depending on how nostalgic you are for the original goofier translation), a few anime cutscenes that were originally added to the PSX port, an extra multiplayer feature that sucks but thankfully can easily be ignored, and a few extra end/post-game sidequests. In short, most of the extras are fluff that doesn't really change the overall game, so it's mostly a matter of preference. Except for the aforementioned PSX version. DO NOT play the PSX version. All it adds are the cutscenes I mentioned earlier, and the tradeoff is GODAWFUL load times; we're talking like 5 full seconds to enter the menu and 7-8 to start a battle.
