Chrono Cross, its semi-related but not direct sequel, has taken even longer to get here.
That in itself, I’m absolutely okay with.
I’ve got nothing about a locked 30fps frame rate, as long as it’s consistent.
You see, physical attacks allow you to power up your magical Element attacks in Chrono Cross.
Only here you don’t have a separate MP bar.
The mad thing is, this frame rate lurching doesn’t happen anywhere else.
Navigating your party around towns and its top-down world map is delightful.
‘New’, on the other hand, upscales those pre-rendered pixels to fit modern resolutions.
Over time, I’ve grown to like it and lump it.
But part of me is still a bit disappointed, you know?
And those other characters you didn’t recruit?
I want to play more, but man alive, those frame rate issues really need sorting out first.
Here’s hoping Square Enix have got a timely day one patch in store.
