SGDQ 2017 - Chrono Trigger Speedrun (Any%) 

I always name Crono "Kino", Marle "Leene", Lucca "Taban", Frog "Cyrus", Robo "Lavos", and Magus "Ozzie" for maximum text box confusion.

Watched this today after hearing about Akira Toriyama passing. His artstyle on this game as well as in the Animated cutscenes was glorious! I had hope we would one day get a Chrono Trigger Remake, but if Toriyama can't be a part of it, then it is best we appreciate what we have.

I love Puwexil runs. I want to hire him to play through games for me while I drink beer and eat chips on my couch.

Puwexil, I love watching your runs. Informative, entertaining, and classy. Keep up the good work and great time on this run!

The music makes this game: forest, End of Time, Zeal. The tranquility of underground frog hideouts. These runners make me sad though, admitting that exterior life is meaningless, so we may as well learn every turn in an old RPG...

Just got Chrono Trigger on Steam and tried out that "shield skip" at the first prison and actually made it first try ;D Still damn proud, even after 2nd time I failed. ;)

That was worth the 3 hours for the FFMQ reference. I wish I had this aswell on SNES.

Amazing run. I cannot wait to see this hopefully at the next GDQs live!

i was hooked on Puwexil a few months ago after i watched his ff7 run on AGDQ. not only did that run remind me of how powerful these games were for my childhood but they even inspired me to play several of those games again. just a few hours ago i finished a 45 hour casual run of the original FF Tactics and a few weeks before that i finished up BoF 3 and BoF 4.

was very cool SGDQ overall, especially all the "long" jrpgs that got run. looking forward for AGDQ (gotta get the 2.5mil!)

In the Steam Version: I talked to Marle to make sure she was OK and THEN I picked up the pendant and gave it back. I let her buy her candy (no candy skip) and got a unanimous Not Guilty verdict (7-0). First time ever

Absolutely love when you run or are involved in runs in gdq. Thanks for the great entertainment Puwexil!

Best game ever. WONDER SHOT!!! Ayla is the Sabin of this game. You don't even have to give her sexy ass a weapon, she's just tough as nails. lol

One of those dudes has their mic waaaaaay too close to their face. All through the run.... *smack* *swallow* *lick* *breathe* At least he was doing it in order.

I've been going through a lot of anxiety the past week or so an during that time, whenever I had a few spare minutes here and there, I'd watch this run. It has brought me immense relief and comfort. Thank you.

Damn, I didn't even know you could cancel triggers in this game CRAZY

Great run Puexil. I donated during the run with a heartfelt message, idk if it got read or not. anyways thanks for the awesome CT run at SGDQ!

Enjoying this in 2024👌🤘🏻

the announcer doesn't even pronounce the title of the game correctly >.

I've been a master at this game since its release almost 23 years ago. Including New Game+ runs, I've literally been through it hundreds of times. There isn't anything left I don't know... Which is what I thought until today. I've never in my life seen that Green Dream/Elixer bug. I may not be a part of the speedrunning community, but I'm still shocked I learned something about this game today. Well done.

Puwexil is such a stand up dude, told him on twitch how much I liked his ff7 run and you could hear the genuine appreciation in his voice.

yikes these guys need to drink some water

Like if you think Chrono Trigger is the best game of all time

Question: are there speedrun categories in which they try to beat the game as fast and "normal" as possible. I.e. the way the developers intended or as close to that as possible?

Do most people say "Marl" or do they say "Marlee"? I've been saying Marl (or Mar-ul) this whole time. Also, awesome run!

Ojalá explicaran los trucos en español

It would be nice if they talked us through the story as well as the speedrunning techniques

Puwexil you’re so damn charismatic dude haha super fun watching you

Ok there’s no way those donations are real

Puwexil and his couch for PRESIDENT 2024!!!!!!!

Whats witg the empty equipment slots? please explain

Did this nigga just say chron-oh

50:18 Never Gonna Give you up

Why do chrono trigger characters look like DBZ?

Great run guys. Maybe don’t let Red explain things though. He seems to have issues getting the words out and jumbles them around pretty bad while he fiddles with his water bottle.

"Heal the last boss to death"

Please someone help me. I'm playing this game for the first time and get stuck. Right after 3:41:21 Crono was killed and I dont know what to do. I didnt get Mayus, and I'm Lost... sad because I dont have Crono and I like to play with him. I dont know what to do with the Chrono Trigger... please someone help me

these glitches are insane

They seriously need to do this run like every day. I would seriously pay them like a million dollars just to play chrono trigger for me.

15:31 speedrun start :) Love your run Puwexil!

"Krawn-oh Trigger!"

I can finish this game in 1 hour...

Puwexil is the best.

2:30:53 Bookmarking my time for later.

I loved the run up until you glitch em with elixirs. Those kind of glitches i hate seeing in speed runs. It just completely breaks the game.

It aint a speed run until you do it 100% legit I dont like glitches, cheats, or walk throughs following someone else's strategies and tricks if you dont play the game legit instead of glitches and junk its not showing no skill at all i dont mind what the hell anyone says about it either. Didn't accomplish nothing by doing it if you cannot play it legit that is worse as Ocarina of Time watching an idiot jumping through a fence glitching the board with a chicken to slide all the way to ganon with 3 hearts beating the game. Just as much as Chrono Trigger trying to get to Lavo's the easy way without doing it the hard way its not no competetion by speed running through the game with glitches and tricks that doesn't prove anything. When I play RPG I find it all 100% no matter how long it takes then I beat the game when I find everything unlocked instead of rushing through the game with speed runs glitching my way to what did I accomplish by doing it nothing. A true gamer plays a speed run legit not glitches his or her way through the game trying to beat top score if you cheat your time shouldn't count at all.

my god the geeks on the couch are painful to listen to.

Also, for those unaware of Ayla's nickname. Opaque binary blob (OBB) is a term used in network engineering and computer science to refer to a sizeable piece of data, which looks like binary garbage from outside, by entities which do not know what that blob denotes or carries.

The audience kinda sucked in this one, definitely not as enjoyable as previous GDQs

It really bothers me that they kept calling it the maz-uh-mewn. It's pronounced mah-sah-moo-nay.

best game ever
