Why is it Chrono Trigger? Because it's Final Fantasy VI. :P

Frog's Theme slaps. Honestly, the whole soundtrack for this game is incredible.
I agree totally. So many things put Chrono Trigger way up the list for me, but the soundtrack is really something special. 8-Bit Music Theory has a really great video about Mitsuda's use of non-functional harmony for any other music nerds out there.
And the whole OST is available on Spotify too.
Surprised no one has mentioned Xenogears, the story is amazingly deep. So yeah not CT but gears is ONE OF the greatest JRPGs of all time
I haven’t played this yet but it’s on my backlog, and I’ve been itching to play a JRPG. What game(s) would you compare it to?
I know this makes me sound basic but I think Final Fantasy VII is the best, and that's coming from someone who doesn't have nostalgia for it. I played it for the first time a couple years ago and I loved it. I think it has aged incredibly well, particularly because of the materia system and the music.
- time travel
- dual and triple techs
- amazing theme songs
- amazing bad guys
- frog
I rest my case
Nah OG Final Fantasy, or Dragon Warrior.
