I finally finished Chrono Trigger. And truly, this is how you do a game. The characters are great, no bloat, and it’s just so, so much fun. The dialogues, the interactions, the battling, tuning your equipment, etc. It all just works perfectly. Of course, it’s old, but it holds up really well (I think a lot of 2D games hold up way better than the early 3D games because of the style).

But what game next? I loved that this game didn’t take too long. I think a lot of JRPGs just get too long for the story they are trying to tell, and Chrono trigger is the perfect length, where every moment pushed the narrative forward, in a fun way. Is there any other game like it in that way?
