\I suppose so. Honestly I don't have too many games I can't admit the faults with. I just say I like it and stop trying to justify myself... Like Chrono Trigger.  8D

You can't really find too many things wrong with Chrono Trigger.

Courage is the Magic that turns Dreams into Reality.

I learned that all things explode in slowmotion if you punch them hard enough.

You may have to be on fire for that to happen, though.

Never played it. I'm being a SNES purist here.

Save for the whole ALTTP deal with the GBA...

Hah I have it from every American release. SNES, PS1, and DS. I haven't played it recently.

And well, I just know it is an old game, despite the endings it is rather linear and the story isn't all that deep compared to newer games.

I just know them as the complaints of some, not my own. I also still wish they hadn't squashed all the fan-made games... Chrono Cross wasn't BAD it just... It lost a lot of the fun feel of the original. I like it more as a stand alone than a sequel.

I, for the most part, do not like RPG's at all. Chrono Trigger is an exception, because it's just that good.

I'm the complete opposite except Chrono Trigger was awesome, the only thing I had a problem with was that the first game was kinda short to me and the extra features in the DS version weren't very appealing to me.  New Game+ is fun because you can get new endings though.

I haven't played the DS one much recently. Didn't really get into the monster raising thing. >.>;

I do agree that it is kind of short. Also as I grew I found it to be greatly less difficult. Of course when I was 7 somehow I couldn't figure out what to do at the fair. I think it was mostly because I was not supposed to play the SNES so I was always nervous and not reading what I was doing.

Yes and the players guide made it too easy, of course I only used it for the side quests and the Black Omen.

I only had guides for pokemon R/B/Y, G/S, and Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced. I don't get them too often with money scarce and gamefaqs for free.

I like RPGs in general, they're just so damn long. I think I should stop playing them for a while and enjoy many other (and shorter) games.
As for guides, I don't use them. What's the point of playing if you have every puzzle already solved? The only reasonable reason to use a guide is IMO to check if there are any permanently missable things.
I have a guide for RBY but it's a collector's item. I'm quite sure it's the only official game guide translated into Polish.

I enjoy both RPGs and Platformers. Platformers for the gameplay, and RPGs for the storyline. Why they can't combine platformers with storyline and RPGs with gameplay (Barring Legend of Zelda) is beyond me.

I suck at platformers. I really hate MOST ALL of them. I like Metroid Fusion/Zero Mission but that's about it. I just don't have the reflexes for them I guess.

On another note, being a good god in black and white 2 is a PAIN in the ASS but thankfully there seems to be a fix for the 'Ohhay we'll give you a limited amount of ore' thing... I was literally going over the WHOLE land looking and couldn't find a damn thing...  O:<

I learned that I need to be more careful with my brother's DS. I broke the hinge. Thankfully it's still alive.

Those break way too quick when mishandled. I remember that happening to me once after a couple of drops, I'm not suprised that the DSi is actually more sturdier than it looks.. Tonka Tough, to be exact.

I learned of a good book today, REALLY good read. Raptor Red, I can say they put more effort to this one than the Sue book (it's a bit darker, actually going into the creature's own thoughts).. and I can work with Kirby-style humans (half the size of normal folk, built with three circles, and the topmost being the head) than normal humans.

Workshop/DA/YT/Photobucket なにかんがえてるの!?
So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

This is an original DS. It's lasted over 4 years so far. My DS Lite fell out of my pocket and broke in half.
