@@alonzoneyra4358 If I remember correctly, for Glenn to rebert from the Frog curse, he has to kill him in 12000 BC, but that's not the cannon ending...
Not exactly. In some sprites of Glenn you can see a long hair like Zarbon's so, I imagine him with other eyes and a hair yeah, like GT's Vegeta or Gohan. But definitely not with the generic Db fanart eyes XD
That good ending with Lucca and the baby is totally the start on Chrono Cross. That baby is obviously Kid from CC, notice the amulet she's wearing. This is what happens - Lucca takes home this baby and starts an orphanage, but later when the orphanage is burned down by Lynx, Lucca dies and Kid swears to avenge her death.
I kinda wish the lore in this world was expanded, more games, more shows, anything. It has the potential to continue on and becoming an even more incredible world.
Exactly, but beg's the question on how were they defeated? the crew's 'true magic' powers maybe rivaled by the upcoming technology of the elements but clearly, Chrono and Marle's skills should still suffice for them to defend their nation not discounting that they have powerful items.
I've been looking for the "bad" ending everywhere! Do you remember how you got it because my PSX would always kinda crash with it and I wasn't sure if it was a bad dream or if the happy ending truly lasted for 5 years only. =S
Pedro Régis I'm thinking of trying it, but I highly doubt the game could make it work. Time travel is kind of a bitch to write without any huge plotholes on its own, and the fact that it has fourty something main characters... That would mean that either most of the characters aren't going to have any complex interesting plots like in Trigger, or the story would be broken as fuck. And from what I've heard, they basically focused on the storyline and the game part itself wasn't well thought out enough in the end, so it's basically broken and awkward to play.
Gorillabot3000 For me it felt awesome the gameplay much better than chrono trigger for the charcters you're right the only one the tell the story is Kid and Harley
Gorillabot3000 and i didnt have any trouble understanding the story.And its not about time travel its about "dimension travel".The story is not broken and its not awkward at all.And only 5-7 chars have stories
@EliroX904 I believe the reason as to why crono doesnt talk is because the player is supposed to be crono. That is why every time somebody asks crono(player), a couple of reply options appear. He's basically just a representing character of the player.
@teengohan27 The new explanation (due to new stuff in Chrono Trigger DS) is that Dalton was sucked through a time portal after his last battle with Crono and pals, ending up in a place called Dimensional Vortex. He vowed revenge and somehow arrived some years before 1,000 AD (changing history), raised an army in Porre and invaded Guardia in 1,005 AD. He found the Masamune in Guardia Castle's basement, but since he was evil, the sword became evil. The shadow killing everyone is Dalton.
@HadurIII It is Schala...well, Schala's daughter-clone, whom is later named Kid, a major character in Chrono Cross. Basically these endings are fan service to connect Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross.
Totally agree with you. In Chrono Trigger, altough is a good story, it only got me to say "WTF?!" a very few times. In Chrono Cross, that was constant.
I doubt he so much "escaped" as "just got dropped off in another time by accident." Dalton wasn't really mentioned in Chrono Cross itself, but I seem to recall him being brought up as a plot point in that Radical Dreamers text thingamajig. Personally, I like that there was some degree of time-travel backlash; mucking around with the timeline the way these people have is bound to have consequences. They did, technically, cause the fall of Zeal to end worse than it had originally.
I recall reading that the video was a hack of sorts. The new bonus secret ending of Chrono Trigger DS depicts Magus ending up Guardia forest, sometime after 1000AD. He's got amnesia.
@rocklover3300 Apparently, R-66Y might still even exist in the Ideal Timeline, but it seems like that would be an alternate who hadn't met Crono, Lucca, etc... Could still be the same Robo, though. Some kooky stuff happens when dealing with alternate timelines. Robo actually did somehow still exist in some accessible timeline, since he appears in Chrono Cross.
Akira Toriyama. Same artist that did Dragonball did a number of games for square, including Dragon Quest VIII. His art style is very... well, the polite way of saying it is "distinctive".
If you stick a high-performance clock at the bottom of a mountain, and another at its summit, and you give it enough time to record there will be disparity between the two. Locations with stronger gravitational density move through time at a slower rate, and the same goes for something that moves at a high velocity - this is how they're able to study particles that usually only exist for fractions of a second by accelerating them to high velocity to prolong their life length.
@rocklover3300 Well, he's not called Robo in CC. He was installed into the systems of Chronopolis as the Prometheus Circuit, thus appearing and playing a part in CC. I agree with you, though. I'd like to have seen alternate cut-scenes where they did appear in the endings (at least inserted in).
What the hell? These are not different endings. The first cutscene tells what happened right after the end of the game, and the second one tells what happened 5 years later. Stop spreading misinformation.
yeah true... good ending was the first scene... bad ending was the scene that showed after the good ending... there are no good and bad ending in Chrono trigger
Robo's future disappeared with Lavos' death. The conception of time travel in Chrono Trigger follow the traditional clichés about it, the "kill ur grandfather and u die" theory. Magus' case is more complicated though... he is linked to Chrono Cross and all...
haha because Akira Toriyama did the illustrations for Chroro Trigger. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but i believe he also did the storyline for Chrono Trigger too. He actually made manga and did a couple of TV episodes for Chrono Trigger released only in Japan. but it failed to make it over to the USA unfortunately.. :|
The bad ending (though both are the actual endings as the bad one is set five years after the good one) is basically that the character Dalton from the game survives his "death" and goes on to start a rebellion in Porre against Guardia that works and leads up to the sequal.
The thing about the whole time-traveling thing, was that it was caused by the pendant, which I believe got its power from Lavos itself. This pendant was passed down from Schala, eventually making its way to Marle. This makes me think that the whole "mucking around" was caused by Lavos(When it collided with the planet in 65,000,000 BC, it left a time portal), and by extension, Schala. What bothers me, though is if Schala was removed from the timeline, how was Marle still able to be born?
I think the bad ending is the preminiton of what transpires to chrono cross because the main cast from 1000 A.D. Died and Kid aka Schala Clone was in Luccas orphanage. When it was burning down hence the masamune dream sequence of her in the burning orphanage and her calling lucca her big sister. so I think that may have well been Kid at the end whom lucca picks up.
wait, the baby that lucca found on the end, was that Princess Schala from Chrono Cross? I played that game a million times and THAT was the best game i've ever played.
@DairunCates Are you implying there's something wrong with Toriyama's art? I'm not a big fan of manga or anime but I like his style, and yes it is very distinctive.
you will be surprised how many people finished both games and still don't really understand the story then try explaining it to a person who never played it; they will never get it
all hail king chrono! and one thing i would really want is that frog could be turned back to normal when its not at the ending, it would hav been great if it happened when he got back the masamune
The destruction of Guardia is NOT the bad ending since that scene can still happen during the "good ending" even on the PS1 version. Instead the Bad ending is the one where you lose to any form of Lavos other then its 1st form inside the Ocean Palace.
Robo's future was destroyed. Magus is an interesting case though...Depends on which timeline [Radical Dreamers or Chrono Cross] you consider the true sequal I guess... Plus, the player has the option to kill Magus, hence his absence in the end cutscene...
@mrcthemanha I believe I'm correct but I don't have the materials right in front of me, but I'm pretty sure Lucca was described as Kid's mother in Radical Dreamers.
Too bad that both good and bad ending happen. When I fully understood the events on chrono cross/trigger I was kinda shocked to know that Guardia was taken over by Porre
Folks, for those who are curious - the child is likely Kid from Chrono Cross: we know in Chrono Cross that Lucca eventually starts up an orphanage that Kid lived at - one that Lynx destroyed. A drawing of Lucca and her name can be seen in the fire. For those who are curious - warning you of MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD - Kid is something like Schala reincarnated or some such. It's been a long time since I beat CC, so don't quote me - this is mostly my speculation based on what I remember.
**SEMI-SPOILER** The baby is Kid, one of the main characters of Chrono Cross, the sequel to Chrono Trigger that takes place 20 years later. **MAJOR SPOILER** Kid is a clone of Schala, sent back in time and raised by Lucca. You don't find out that she's Schala's clone until the end of the game. I normally dislike giving out spoilers, but Chrono Cross was released over ten years and 2 console generations ago. So, unless the game is re-released, most peoples chances of playing it are slim.
lol this isnt the bad ending. it is the 13th ending exclusive after the psone version. the bad ending is the one that lavos distroys the world, and can be acomplished by just losing the fight.
that baby is KID FROM CHRONO CROSS!!!wow they linked it uP!!now it makes sense...crono marries Marle and they live somewhere else...Lucca takes care of Kid ( Schala clone)!no wonder crono or marle was never mentioned in cross...sad fact about lucca though
I have the DS version of the game and I have all the cutscenes in my gallery but one and I've beaten the game a lot...I'm guessing the tenth cutscene that I'm missing is the bad ending cutscene? How do I get the bad ending's cutscene?! I've tried losing to lavos on prupose...but nothing happens besides the future refuses to change thing...???
Hate to point this out, espically if someone already has, but that's the not the "Good" and "Bad" ending...that's just the ending. All of that actually happens. Cross is a direct result of the events of Trigger. Cross takes place BECAUSE of Trigger. Lucca did find baby Schala and started an orphanage, Crono and Marle got married, Gaurdia was actually destroyed five years later and the Masamune was infact stolen and corrputed. Sad, but hey, that's the timestream for you.
@enderx30 Hmm, you might be on to something there. I've heard Chrono Cross was (in a way) a sequel to Chrono Trigger. Might not be this specific situation, but maybe that something horrible in the future is shown there |D
Did Magnus died in theses aftermath cinematics or he disappeared in the end of time forever? 🤔 Was Magnus never meant to be in this future or he didn’t existed at all in this new future? 🤷🏻
