Omg…it’s going to happen! I personally would just like a remake like SO just released. We don’t need a full scale FF7 thingy lol

 

[cash_longfellow]

I'm torn between giving it the Octopath Traveler treatment, or giving it the FFVII Remake treatment. I'm leaning towards FFVII Remake...

Okay…good luck with your finished product in 2047.

 

[ungalo]

The title is half-bait.



Right now ('Right now' being the key phrase here) he's thinking of two different paths: FF7 full blown remake or Link's Awakening Switch-style remake.

Thanks to the Nintendo fanboy hosting the podcast we're going to end up with a shitty remake like Link's Awakening

 

[StereoVsn]

This would be perfect, but SE probably feels like this game is beloved enough to butcher it and have us mashing X while Crono does backflips and the screen fills with particle effects.

It’s going to be a gritty remake with Souls like - DMC combat, isn’t it?

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

Okay…good luck with your finished product in 2047.

The anticipation is the best part

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

A remake similar in vein to the successful but expensive Final Fantasy VII Remake.

Please please please please

 

[adamsapple]

I would like them to just leave this one alone.

 

[Trogdor1123]

I’d like an octopath styled one.

 

[BlueLyria]

Don't give me hope

 

[Mister Wolf]

HD 2D.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

The 2DHD thing would be great, and I think there's a ton you could do with those environments. Add in Singing Mountain, give us an optional remixed soundtrack, and you're basically set. Square has proven they can do a damn good job with that. I wouldn't want a 3D remake - in this case, less is more.

Oh, and none of that junk they added to the DS version. Thanks.

Chrono Trigger could easily be a 1 title remake

 

[ZehDon]

I'd actually like them to just remake it like Chrono Cross; fixed camera angles, pre-rendered backgrounds, stylised 3D models. I think that kind of style would work very well for the kind of RPG it actually is. Attempting to take Chrono Trigger and transform it into a third person action game - ala FFVII Remake - would be a massive mistake.

Keep that junk, and add some of the cut stuff in zeal back in!

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

Star Ocean The Second Story R style HD 2d/3d thing. Please do that for Xenogears too.

The original actually looks quite charming in this comparison.

 

[Metnut]

How about a real sequel. Chrono Cross blows.

 

[Buggy Loop]

2D-HD ideal

If 3D at the very least try to match the original style ala Sand Land?



Not that abomination in the OP

 

[cash_longfellow]

The anticipation is the best part

I’ll probably die before then, so fingers crossed for a different version lol

 

[cash_longfellow]

Chrono Trigger could easily be a 1 title remake

Absolutely…and it should be!

 

[digital_ghost]

Maybe they could invent something where you Interact with on screen video with buttons on a plastic doo dad.

I think it would waste billions of hours of people's lives and a escape from the reality we hate.

I doubt anyone would buy such an invention.

 

[Damigos]

I expect season passes, surprise mechanics and 60€ cosmetic armors

 

[Rat Rage]

CT doesn't need a remaster. Also, 2D-HD sucks ass and looks ugly. Either stick to 3D or 2D, no one needs a fused bastardisation of both.

 

[BacklashWave534]

By the original team. Mordern day Square Enix is unqualified to touch such an amazing work of art.

 

[BacklashWave534]

I'm torn between giving it the Octopath Traveler treatment, or giving it the FFVII Remake treatment. I'm leaning towards FFVII Remake...

I have to disagree. Chrono Trigger has a tight story with meaningful sidequests. Fleshing it out FFVII Remake style would ruin it.

 

[Hardensoul]

Could we just get a port to the current consoles? Not that Mobil crap!

 

[Azelover]

2D-HD and DO NOT change the battle system, otherwise, leave it be.

This.

 

[sendit]

Also, Toriyama needs to be invovled or the art style needs to be intact. Chrono Cross was an abomination.

 

[K' Dash]

I usually don’t give a shit about SE, but I’ll make an exception for what I consider the second best RPG ever made.

 

[Icymanipulator]

Not with that render, jfc, it looks horrible.

If anything they have to 2D or cell shaded

 

[lestar]

with the style of DQXII/Dragon ball kakarot

 

[Kokoloko85]

Id prefer a new game in the series or direct sequel, Same cast etc. Which Crono Cross wasnt.
If they remake it, use the Dragon Quest style graphics, anime looking. Doesnt need to be Final Fantasy style

 

[Švejk]

No thanks. Having finally played it to completion last year, I'm sure it was extremely charming back in the day... But it can just stay there... Back in time...

I can think of at least a dozen other Square games that should be remade before it.

 

[Synless]

This is going to get remade in every way you all don’t want it to be done in. It happens this way every time.

I still want it though.

 

[RoboFu]

No way...

 

[NecrosaroIII]

Don't. That game is perfect. There is nothing they could do that would make it better. Instead, they should focus their energy on making a third game. But the problem is, the original was such a lightning in a bottle moment. You had some of the greatest game makers at the height of their creative prowess coming together to make it happen. All those involved are old men now. It's too late I think. Even if you brought back together Horii, Sakaguchi, Kato, Toriyama and Mitsuda back, it wouldn't be the same

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

They should split it up into several episodes, each of which could be expanded to a full sized game.

The first part could last until you save Marle. Just imagine exploring Truce and Guardia in full AAA glory. They could really add to the immersion by adding awesome sidequests like “help me find my missing cats” and “go kill the monsters at the abandoned garbage dump”.

 

[Kumomeme]

Dragon Quest XI in term of artstyle + 2D features available

let FFVII Remake/Rebirth team handle. since lot of staff come from FF13 trilogy, they has experience with time travel mechanic from FF13-2.

 

[Myths]

I’ll accept DQ8 or Ni no Kuni art direction and technology. Fully 3D in the style of DQ8, add in optional Chrono Break scenario they chugged out (skip Cross), all bonus content.

If theyre looking for the best way to monetize off this release, probably fully built and realize worlds (eras) similar to FF7 Remake’s format.

First release would be Present/Middle Ages and then continue onward. I know, it’s a business, theyre going to tax us hard. But if done with genuine effort and worthwhile to play, I’ll shell out several hundred if everything is consistent and well put together.

 

[sigmaZ]

Free to play gatcha pls

 

[Lethal01]

Visions of Mana art

With FF7 Remake combat would be perfection

 

[Fbh]

One game
Give it to the DQXI team
Don't let Nomura into the writers room
Spare no Expense on the soundtrack

As for the combat I'd be fine with both turn based or something like the 7 Remake combat system but the focus should remain on combination attacks between your party members.

 

[mystech]

A 3D graphical remaster with stylized graphics. A game like Chrono Trigger shouldn’t pursue a realistic look. Even better if they can take a Dragon Quest XI approach and allow players to switch to a 2D mode with HD sprites.

That being said, a remake like Final Fantasy VII wouldn’t be half bad either. Stick close to the original and still slow for some creative exploration and expansion.

 

[Zephyranthes]

Gemdrops seems like the obvious choice after they knocked it out of the park with SO2, though I'd rather see them remaster and finish Xenogears first.

 

[kunonabi]

I didn't even like what they did with the DS port so I can't say I'd really want anything.

That said, the bullshit remake/sequel timey-wimey shit they're pulling with FFVII would have made infinitely more sense for Chrono Trigger. Still would have been a mess since modern day Square can't write for shit most of the time but still.

 

[lh032]

A remake in 3 parts trilogy with remake plot like ff7. Let's go

 

[EDMIX]

listen bitch, just give me that 3D over 200 days Remix shit and call it a day.

 

[Barakov]

 

[Koenigssee]

How about not fucking up any of those classics at all anymore.
