On the topic of your comment regarding a 'revamp/additional DLC', I believe that would be pretty awesome (even though Chrono Trigger is already perfect), but I think that if anyone tried touching that game, they would feel it necessary to ruin it by completely changing everything and ruining it. If you love Chrono Trigger like I do, then you should definitely have a looksie. It is only 15 bucks and comes out in June or July I believe. On the topic of Chrono Trigger, there is another game for PS4/Vita that is releasing soon called 'Cosmic Star Heroine' that looks and plays just like Chrono Trigger. Well, I Am Setsuna is the spiritual successor to Chrono Trigger, and was created by the same people who worked on all those old, amazing JRPGs, but a remake seems unlikely considering they just made I Am Setsuna instead of a Chrono Trigger remake or another sequel because Square Enix is involved in I Am Setsuna's development. Very risky business though.GrubsterBeater 2114d ago (Edited 2114d ago )

So long as it was all of the above and nothing more. I'm gonna be honest, I'm actually sort of turned on to the idea of the remake now. The battle areas could be real time like in the original too, and to keep the game cohesive and faithful, they'd be less graphically impressive than the pre-rendered backdrops - which would presumably be updated CG.ДЄLSO, they could include a few little extras such as extra dungeons or locations, and allusions and connections to the games in the compilation (perhaps the extra dungeons could facilitate these things) Yeah, the battle system should remain the same, but, like I said, in battle they could use the more recent compilation / dissidia models they've made to reflect the similar thing that was done in the original. I think a crisis core-esque battle system or some manner of super flashy thing would clash with the overall presentation I'm proposing for the game. I feel if they left it the way it is it'd keep the experience cohesive. The battle system is troubling me though.

It should be nothing like that wretched Ps3 tech-demo.ДЇew other things - the story should remain untouched, while the dialogue could perhaps recieve a once over (not completely different, just tightened up). Chrono Cross remaster rumors have been swirling for some time now, beginning with reports of a 'big remake' announcement for around Christmas time this year, and then further reports that this was. But I suppose if they did, all of the above would be absolutely ideal. The thing is, all these minute changes still dramatically change the original, and it's for that reason that I'd rather they didn't do it at all. They might overdo it with the music and it'd clash with the tone and mood of the locales. This might work quite well with the updated visuals, but they'd have to balance it just right. I even think voices during battles would be pushing it.ДЄlso the music would be redone. I think this'd be a big mistake though- unless it was just for FMVs perhaps. They'd probably feel obliged to include voice-work- Since they have a cast of voice actors for VII and pretty much all their games from the last decade have been voiced.

They could of course use the modern proportionate models in battles like they did in the original. On the topic of Chrono Trigger, there is another game for PS4/Vita that is releasing soon called 'Cosmic Star Heroine' that looks and plays just like Chrono Trigger. So lets see if they just like to dump all over their Squaresoft side, or their Enix side of things as well.

Maybe if it were more in the style of the DS version of IV it'd work though- it'd be less dated for a new audience and much closer to the original style. On that note, there is an announcement of Valkyrie Profile 1, specifically the psp version 'Lenneth' to get a re-release, i suspect an upscaled port is what this will be, but there is no confirmation, aside form the name yet. I don't even think they'd have to be in real time- just make them much crisper with a few little real-time elements in them.ДЄlso, I can imagine they'd redo the field character sprites / models in the style of the compilation- THAT would be a mistake. Rocks, trees and grass will often be skipped on Switch while fields of foliage can now appear as empty, blurry. The backdrops and camera angles would have to stay the same.
