actually toiyama did nearly all the concept artwork in the game, sprite characters, backgrounds, buildings inside. they are all very toriyama.Tolerant Fanboy said:The Toriyama art is just for the models. The actual sprites are pretty much par-for-the-course 16-bit sprites, about 1.5 times taller than powered-up SMW Mario. Also, the story is fscking epic. If you pass this up because the guy who did the character concepts introduced us to Shouting Blond Man Style Martial Arts, you're doing yourself a great disservice. Anything involving Chrono Trigger should be pretty awesome. I'm not saying that it is impossible for this to suck (I've heard the horror stories of Chrono Cross), but I'm excited.blakfayt said:Only if they did something about the art, I enjoyed Chrono Trigger, but that damn art is just...I hate DBZ and all the art for Chrono Trigger and DQ is like looking at hundreds of Gokus.
Just calm down, it's not like Retro Studios have never ruined Metroid Prime by making it in 1st person, although a ton of it's polish(which Obsidian lacks) had to do with Nintendo flipping the teatable over and giving it enough development time and proper input on the game(which Obsidian desperately needs).ultimasupersaiyan said:First I have to say AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! Second is that they can go to hell! Chrono Trigger is the best JRPG released ever! If they westernize it, they'll kill it! Would you let Stephenie Meyer to rewrite True Blood? FUCK NO! That is essentially what westernizing a JRPG would be like and if they want one to kill how about Vagrant Story or some other mediocre JRPG they may have a slight chance of improving.
I don't like western RPGs(outside of Fallout 3) and I don't like Square-Enix's western targeted RPGs! Call me whatever the heck you want but JRPGs should just stick to the traditional style and western developers should NEVER THINK OF TOUCHING A JRPG EVER!!!!!! I wish more traditional JRPGs were made for the current console but I seem to only have 1 developer to rely. Mistwalker hasn't made any new games in a while and I wish The Last Story would get more info released.
I do want a modern remake of the game with HD cel-shaded graphics but made by the original developers with no change to the story or combat.
