Well, most of us have heard about both of these games at least once as gamers.


For those who've played them, which game do you think is the superior one and why?

Shhh quiet you might piss somebody off...

Almost nothing can beat Chrono Trigger.

  • 12.01.2012 8:50 PM PDT

Chrono Trigger is good but its also linear, short, and EXTREMELY EASY.

FF7 is okay but its also boring, TOO LONG, and RETARDEDLY HARD (sometimes).

I choose Dragonquest 8.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

Dark Souls.

Chrono Trigger by far. Honestly, FF7 was pretty great and all but it's nowhere near the best FF game. That title absolutely goes to either VI or VIII.

You know I love Dark Souls to death, but we're talking about turn-based games, as known as "JRPGs".

Turn based =/= JRPG. Dark Souls is a JRPG, because it was developed in Japan. JRPG generally have turn based combat, but that is not a defining trait of the genre.

If you used FF6 vs Chrono Trigger, I would have unleashed the Ninja Cats to steal your life in the night. But since you use 7, we're cool.

Of those, Chrono Trigger pwns all.

You do know what JRPG is suppose to stand for correct?

  • 12.01.2012 9:25 PM PDT

I never found FF7 that great imo FF10 was the best FF ever. Chrono Trigger beats FF7 by a landlside.

No, actually. I've always thought that turn based games (Persona, FF, Dragon Quest, Golden Sun, etc.) were classified as JRPGs and games like DkS were Western style RPGs.

JRPG stands for Japanese Role Playing Game, ie games that are made in Japan. WRPGs are RPGs made in the West. JRPGs traditionally have turn-based combat though that is not a requirement to be classified as a JRPG.

The names are there to differentiate them geographically. Dark Souls is a Action RPG and FF is a turn based RPG but they are both JRPG because they are from Japan. I can see why you would get confused since Japanese games rarely bring out action based RPGs.

Get what I am saying?

Edit: Thanks Zombine!
