Chrono Trigger

Got the broken Masamune. I really wish they had left the character names as Grand and Leon and the sword as Grandleon. Masamune was the name of an ancient katana like those Chrono wields in the game, not a traditional straight sword like those Frog uses. Terrible name change, plain and fucking simple. Too many Japanese RPG translators can't write worth a shit.

Fantasian

Still grinding until I get Ez's skill to apply Quick Up to all characters.

Grandia

After the base, after the train, and in the West Misty Forest. Got a shitload of great elemental skills now.

Still working on my Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster, which will definitely be a doozy.

These look interesting.

My FF6 review will definitely be favorable, and I've largely enjoyed Chrono Trigger in spite of its faults. I probably wouldn't score Fantasian very highly, though, given the endless grinding I've had to do, but I'll definitely do my best to finish it if mechanically able. Grandia has a pretty fun battle system in spite of terrible encounter mechanics, and the dungeon design has pretty much made me have to use maps online so I don't miss everything, since a lot of things can easily be lost forever.
