Quote: Chrono Trigger
When I had roms I played that some, got like 7 or 8 hours in I think (maybe 9 or 10?)... it did seem pretty good. Got stuck on some hard boss or other and quit there, but I wouldn't mind continuing. I certainly enjoyed it a lot more than FF3-SNES, which I got annoyed at within an hour or two and never returned to... and as I said I didn't play FF2. Oh, I never played Chrono Cross. But yes, I definitely prefer my RPG combat to be much more on the strategic side... Baldur's Gate, of course, being the perfect example of that. After that it took a while to go back and get used to the simpler gameplay of console RPGs... and it definitely made me wish that console RPGs had filled that middle ground between action (Diablo or the Mana games) and straight menu-based (Wizards & Warriors or most any console RPG).
As for Persona 2, honestly my biggest problem with the game is that you can talk to the demons, making them seem more 'human' (if that is the right term), making you feel sorry for killing them... sure, after you kill your first dozen demon children maybe it gets easier, but is it really right? :) (and the game does not really go into such issues... it could, if it were a deeper game, but it doesn't.) ... yeah, Planescape: Torment spoiled me for everything else story depth wise...
