Fan Content Did you know? Zappa is the only character in the game who has distinct portraits for left-facing and right-facing, due to the scar on his eye. So, here's an edit of him with two good eyes and another edit with two blind eyes.

Discussion Humanity are evil *according to the Dragonians*

2 Upvotes

Don't forget the whole "humanity are evil" shtick in the game only comes from the Dragonians and Demi-Humans

They don't necessarily speak for the Planet

The Planet did bring Dinopolis to this dimension, but it was primarily an instinctual reaction when Chronopolis was pulled back in time. It wasn't necessarily a deeply thought out decision

Also, we know Dinopolis and Chronopolis fought one another but we don't actually know who attacked first. For all we know Dinopolis could have been the aggressor

And lastly, the Dragon God we see in the game is a corrupted being, basically remote controlled by the Time Devourer. It isn't the original Dragon God who was in tune with nature

Question humanity are evil? Spoiler

17 Upvotes

According to the story of Chrono Cross, various demi-humans, fairies, dwarves, and the Dragonians essentially claim that humanity is evil and irredeemable due to its actions toward nature; is this really the case, or is it just an exaggeration by the game's detractors?

Has anyone tried DLSS 5 on Chrono Cross? I found this clip in a YouTube video, and I’d love to see how it looks in other areas of the game. Clip from: YouTube Video

Question What's the real importance of Kid's purple beaded necklace?

If Kid's purple beaded necklace isn't Schala's pendant or the Astral Amulet, then why is she holding it like it's so important at the Live Action scene in the ending sequence?

Im looking for reading recommendations of books similar to Chrono Cross. They Don't have to be strictly fantasy, it's okay if purely from a vibe/aesthetic. Also I ask with each recommendation that you explain the connection to the game or reason why you would recommend it. Thanks!

And I wondered why the "ending" was so abrupt.

Anyway, I like Chrono Cross a decent much.

Something you'll probably hear from alot of people, the story's alright, but the visuals and soundtrack is amazing.

Something you probably won't hear from everyone, I really enjoy the combat, and the 1 time element use sometimes will make you think about what you want to use and when you want to use them.

Question What's the current state of Switch version?

11 Upvotes

Getting lot of notifications of this board made me definitely willing to play CC again. My doubt is if I should emulate it or get the remaster on my Nintendo Switch

When the remaster, CC Radical Dreamers, was released, AFAIK almost all different consoles versions had different kind of issues. I saw a friend playing on his Switch and was very sluggish, low FPS, looking even inferior to PS1 version.

What's the current state of it? Did we had any updates on Switch regarding these issues?

Discussion Decompilation with GPT-6 Astra

0 Upvotes

Como alguns de vocês já devem saber, o motivo pelo qual não temos um remake adequado de Chrono Cross é porque a Square Enix simplesmente PERDEU os arquivos originais do jogo.

Estávamos perdidos, vivendo apenas de emulação e migalhas desse amado jogo.

Mas há um processo chamado decompilação, que reverte a engenharia e restaura o código fonte original do jogo.

Atualmente, você pode ver vários jogos rodando nativamente sem emulação no Android, Windows e Linux. Eles estão renascendo com gráficos em 4K, mods e melhorias. Isso é preservação digital... que nosso amado jogo Chrono Cross não teve.

Mas isso pode mudar. Graças ao GPT-6 ASTRA, vários projetos estão sendo decompilados em um dia, mas isso vem a um custo, e nem todo mundo tem acesso a um plano de decompilação pago para fazer isso por conta própria com Chrono Cross.

Mas essa comunidade é grande e juntos nós podemos fazer isso.

Basta acessar o projeto de decompilação: https://github.com/jdperos/chrono-cross-decomp

E todos que têm acesso ao chat GPT aqui podem contribuir para restaurar este jogo. E você sabe a melhor parte? Sem digitar uma única linha de código. A IA faz tudo automaticamente através do CODEX. E ela ainda te dá instruções passo a passo de como fazer isso.

Eu invoco todos os fãs desse jogo incrível a fazer isso. E para que possamos ter um novo universo de possibilidades para Chrome Cross em breve.

Question Stuck and could use some help Spoiler

8 Upvotes

Hi I'm trying to beat Chrono Cross and am really struggling. I was following a guide and somehow, I still seem to have completely missed some key event or something because I can't seem to progress the story. I should be at the point where I can go fight the dragon gods, but going to the water dragon they tell me something vague about doing something in the other world before being able to fight them.
I read that maybe I have to go to the dragon shrine in guldove, only a bouncer won't let me in for being a "forgeigner". A party member tells me to go to the other world and talk to the priestess there, but when I go there, they don't actually give me anything. Does anyone have any advice? I'm fine if it involves spoilers, at this point I just need a clear way to progress, I'm completely lost. The last things I did before getting stuck here was the big plot point at the dead sea, and I saved Riddel at Viper Manor.

EDIT: Thank you for your help everyone, I made a comment in this for anyone else who get stuck like I did explaining what to do.
