Sorry for reviving a 3 month old topic but....
CHRONO TRIGGER PWNS ALL YOUR ASSES! I never liked FFVII. FFIII/VI was good but not perfect. Yet this game! It those everything perfectly in the RPG element! SO many plot twists. IT's so challenging....ALong with the best cast of characters EVER.
Crono-He never talks but you can just feel him communicating with you
Frog-A knigh that got turned into a frog by an evil wizard (I will name him next) and is eternally cursed.
Magus-The guy who cursed frog and joins your party at the near end of the game. After seeing his sad past and kick@$$ scythes you will use him forever.
Ayla-She's from the dinosaur ages. Ye she is teh sexay!
robo-A robot who learns feelings and very helpful ally.
I would post more but I won't since there might not be enough space to post it all.
Please if you ever run into it you should buy it and have your RPG'ing heart changed forever. For the SNES and playstation1.
