@bretthicksomega Equip the Chrono Cross, play the song, use the Chrono Cross.
You play the song by using the elements in the correct pattern. There have been plenty of times throughout your adventure where you've seen color patterns. I'll give you a hint: they're all the same pattern.
@Masterblaster9001 Hmmm I disagree, there are many instances where patterns don't add up. For instance,attacking the tower you face 6 bosses: Yellow, red, green but then you choose between black or white and then you face blue. The hints are not helpful. The only real place would be the Criosphinx which to beat without killing requires this pattern
...Wow. Its been about 8 years since seeing this, and I still find it very hard to sit through Schala's release sequence without getting moved very emotionally. I didn't get this feeling in FF titles at all either; though FF7's planet cleansing ending (not Aeris' death..I got spoiled on that) came close.
Games don't go this deep anymore. These days, its all about HD graphics and how many orcs/soldiers to kill before getting that sweet upgrade...sad.
So I get there are theories out there why Schala looks so different, her absorption in Lavos is what caused it. Okay.. maybe, but that doesn't really explain why her clothes are different...
This also doesn't mean Chronopolis doesn't exist anymore. Remember, we don't know what happened to the Frozen Flame at the very end. Perhaps FATE is still out there, governing El Nido, fueled by the Frozen Flame. It's just not after Serge anymore.
-- But anyway, Serge remember everything and the two separate dimensions have been woven into one. It's highly likely that the resulting dimension is a lot like Another World, because Home World befell a lot of tragedy. The exception being now that Serge is alive in this dimension, without FATE's interference.
@AizensPlan Hmmm, not really, in the homeworld, the hydras and by extension the swamp is alive and well, and Marbule is a happy place. I think the main message was when given choice (ie, no FATE), humans make mistakes but can learn from them to make the world better
Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great games such as Chrono Cross. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!
I loved games like this when I was younger, and it was still a really fun playthrough. However, this ending was way too preachy (way too much carpe diem/existential babble) and the ultimate copout "twas all a dream" wtf? Crono and friends in the original got to taste success and stuff, whereas Serge just wakes up losing all his memory...fail. 10 years ago the first time I got this ending PSX crashed an I just said screw it. All these years later, what a disappointment.
@AnsinJung Wow even as I wrote that during the credits, it crashed again. @@. Guess I'll finish watching this video in case there are any Easter Eggs at the end of credits.
@AnsinJung That's up for interpretation actually. In my opinion, Serge did not lose his memories, even though maybe that was Schala's intention. Why? Because he asks Leena about FATE and Terra Tower. Thus, he remembers everything. Eventually, Schala finds Serge and they get married. But this doesn't happen until a decade at least, since at the end of Chrono Cross Serge is returned to Opassa Beach after gathering the Komodo Shells.
FF6,7 and 9, Chrono Trigger/Cross, Xenogears, Legend of Dragoon, Legend of Mana, Star Ocean (snes), Tales of Phantasia, Breath of Fire 1-4, Suikoden 1 and 2.
my best 3 would be: FF9, Chrono Trigger and Xenogears
OK what the hell is going on here? The ending text seems to be saying that in order to create a new universe, a human, or indeed other animal, has to HUMP THE PLANET EARTH.
@DGkssk I think the song is called "Life" or "Faraway Promise". The whole OST is freaking flawless! Type in "Chrono Cross OST Life", Adaman10 has the entire OST uploaded.
I feel really bad for Schala. In Chrono Trigger I didn't like her much because she should have stood up for herself against Zeal. But looking at her now...jeez, I wouldn't wish merging with Lavos on anybody. that's just terrible. The song is beautiful and I'm glad that she's free.
On a side note, why is her hair blond? I thought she had blue hair O.o
well back in 2001 square enix registered the trademark for Chrono Brake, but in 2003 the trademark was dropped in the United States. It is set to expire on december 14, 2011 in the European Union, and on july 26, 2012 in Japan...lets hope they do something with it.
I dont understand why game developers dont take advantage of sequels..sega could stop making crappy sonic games and work on shenmue 3 and Camelot is working on Golden sun 3
@GAYLORDFOCKER12345 I hope not. I want to remember this game and Chrono Trigger as priceless treasures from my childhood that shaped who I am today. Not watch it/them evolve into just another 8-20 hour video game that focuses primarily on graphics, scantilly clad characters, and a story with shallow depth that couldn't move me to tears, as this ending has so many times, if it tried. Chrono Cross is like Michael Jackson, there will NEVER be another like it. <3
Considering this is a sequel to a game with over 12 different endings, the fact that the "good" ending is mostly just text of Schala talking like a 1st year philosophy student is kind of disappointing.
All of this "I will find you" crap. The new DS port of CT has an ending with Magus vowing to find Schala, and this one with Schala/Kid saying she'll find you... I think Square is kinda obligated to make another game where someone fucking finds someone! I'd play it...
Square Enix should make a Chrono Cross prequel on PS3 Same OST Same Story Same CG art High Definition Video Scene In 1080p More side quest More elements (magic) More weapons Add more characters (Old characters will stay) Bigger world
You know this game is amazing when my friend, who hates RPGs, managed to play this game religiously and bawl like a baby when he finally got this ending...
You have to play it like 3+ times to fully understand the game.
Basicly though, Kid = Schala a princess from Chrono Trigger. The only REAL connection That is confirmed by the Square Enix to the two games is Schala and lavos. The rest you read about connection is Fan Speculation.
anyways Understanding it just Wikipidia the story-line, it basicly gives you the jist of it. YOutube comments dont give enough room
I had trouble enjoying this game, i felt like the characters switched too often for me to feel connected to them in any fashion. I am the only person who didn't dig this game I think haha.
I think it was a generally well-realised game, but yes, I think the ridiculous number of characters made it hard to identify with any of them. And the characters I loved from the previous game all died horribly. Not fun times. Great music, though.
It's one of those games where you have to play the "New Game +" part, then you can keep your party. But there really is no connection unless you Play through your party members own story (besides kids and Serges)
@h0bgawblin True, one of the few things I don't like much about this game was the inmense amount of characters who just randomly join you and have no development at all (Greco, Neo-Fio and Turnip come to mind). However, some others get their share of development at one point or another, which is always welcome (I can't help but to feel bad about Karsh, for example - mostly cause I can relate to him >_>). And the game could be a bit harder I guess. Everything else is just perfection to me.
its sad this, suikouden 1&2, ff7and 10, legnd of dragoon/ legia. there are so few rpgs this well thought out and throughly enjoyable. And with the passing of time and creation of new gen systems there seem to be less and less ( good job on tales of vesperia). Maybe i'm just getting old sigh.. great game
Watching it right now. I tried to do a playthrough a year ago but my computer is too slow to handle the video recorders. Only made it through the first trip to Viper Manor...
first time I got this ending I had to use a strategy guide; the game was like, HARD. However upon a revisit, I was a hardened Dragon Quest VIII veteran, battle scarred by the Dragovian lord; upon a revisit, THAT time it was easy compared to DQ VIII
LOLS DQ Viii (only took me 90 hours for full completion), but you wanna be scarred, youplay through Dragon Warrior 7 on psx...125 hours ...my god....really, you must battle "God" at the end,..most amazing long game I have ever played,...wonderful and brilliant.
the three best rpgs of all time for me were on the psone. FF7, Chrono Cross, and Xenogears. what an amazing time for video games. they don't make rpg's like this anymore...
@ceberusbotcatcher the combat system was very intresting and pretty original at the time, you get to ride around in giant mecs in parts of the game, its music is good, the only problem i have with Xenogears is the second disk... i will put it like this, level as much as you can before you get to the second CD.
I can't watch and listen to this ending without getting a little choked up. Not even the most emotional moments in the Final Fantasy series can do this to me.
@Grobyc315 It's not emotional in the same way as, say, Aeris' death in FF7 is. More of a general dark and depressing mood, one that makes me think of my own eventual death - and with it, all those uncomfortable mysteries about eternity, nonexistence and the afterlife.
did you guys noticed that when you cast a element, it will create a tone, which all of it being placed in the right spot it will create the melody that is playing, as princess schala escape from the time of devourer.
the strategy guide did not mention that, but, its kind of easy to figure out; the colors and the corresponding music is shown as a clue throughout the game.
I'm not talking about the annoying australian tart, I'm talking about Schala herself. You know, the one sitting on top of the time destroying cosmic horror? The one that looks like an eight year old girl? That Schala.
This game is awesome.....btw just so you guys know, you don't have to keep "Chrono Cross" on level 8...Personally I placed it in level 1 and it worked fine....
I love love love this game... is the jowel of squaresoft the best history of all rpgs y love the ending Very I am moved for this thanks men for this ending
but i screwed up against the end boss and put in the wrong color/sound combo and then i saved!!! it went to new game plus and i never went back to try and beat it again for the good ending, and finally 11 years later i watch it on youtube lol .... absolutly amazing i didnt start thinking the way i do now until i was much older, 23/24, i wonder if i would of been enlightened earlier if i had seen that ending
@ drhatchback, I know exactly what you're talking about... I experienced a same feeling when I was watching the ending of "Secret Of Evermore". Yea, I know, SOE wasn't as good as Secret of Mana, but it was my first game, which I first played at the age of 5^^ and yup, chrono cross has nearly the best storyline I've ever seen combined with a beautiful gameplay... A shame that FF-Games got cursed by the Graphic-Evolution...
hoe - lee - shit .... that is the most amazing thing ive ever read, i cant even begin to describe how that perfectly described what i think life is .... i played this game straight threw in 1 week on a family vacation, i sat on a 3rd floor back deck drinking beer smoking joints basking in the sun and enjoying the sea breeze with the ocean in my background, i cant tell you how much i loved this game ........ cont.
man..so many memories with tihs game. I loved it and still do. I love both ending but this one is the happiest. This game is the best thing I've ever played! <3
man i played this game for years ( when i was little i would play till a certain part like 40 times until i realised how to save and then reach another point restart and do it again for like 400 hours ) then i got the strategy guide and beat it in 20 hours a few months ago but just killed lavos and saved, I GOT THE SHITIEST ENDING FOR A GAME i loved so much i nearly cried, glad this is up on youtube
Personally I did it the second time....how???It's simple....
First of all you must attack with all the guys so your element level will be 8, next just wait until he uses an attack (Omega yellow or green)
After that it is your turn >_>"...USE LEVEL 1 ELEMENTS so that it will be harder for him to attack...use everyone's elements even Serge's...personally I putted Chrono Cross in level 1 elements and after I got "yellow, red, green, blue, black, white"I used it and it worked perfectly!!! Enjoy! ;)
Wait, what? In my case, he filled these colors by HIMSELF. Let him go on, when you start casting yourself, he will not go easy on you and will often interrupt.
@guitargamer1000889 Yeah it sometimes takes several tries to get the Yellow Red Green Blue Black White pattern and then hit the Chrono Cross, the Time devourer throws so many different elements that may end up wrecking your pattern
@guitargamer1000889 That's actually the point; he interrupts you with only one to go. So the solution is to "trick" it into giving you the *first* color of the chain; that way you can cast all the others and use the cross. Since it always casts the color opposite of what you need to continue the chain, cast the chain until the next color would be green, then wait. It'll cast yellow, which is the first color of the chain. Now you can cast all the other colors and use the cross.
easy. Place Chrono Cross at Tech level 1 along with 6 of the other colored elements. Strike up to level 8. Use yellow and red from your level 1 techs, then defend until everyone is at 7.0. THIS IS THE MOST CRUCIAL STEP. TD will use yellow. Then you just go through your level 1 elements going up until u can use CC.
Boom
I beat Time Devourer in less than 10 minutes every time...when I wish to get this ending.
I have to agree. The game was fun, but seems like a very loose attempt to link two different stories which seem to have really had not relation to each other prior to the remake being called "Chrono" Cross.
Yeah Square Soft originally made the game. Later after the merger, Chrono Cross was re-released as a PS1 greatest hit title under SquareEnix so I guess thats where people get confused about who made it.
One last thing to say is this... this is one of the best endings ever. ^^ The music and what is being said... is just beautiful... ^^ "If one link is missing, there would be no future. There is no such thing as a useless life-form... No such thing as a pawn!" That's got to be one of the best quotes ever! ^^ It's one of mine anyway! :D
lol. I think it should at least make some sense. :) At least what's being said after you save Kid. ^^ lol. She's just going to go looking for him again some how... lol. I wonder what their next meeting will be like. lol. Time Loop and yet a little different? lol. Like, what if Kid just pops up by Serge fighting Karsh and the Shaker Bros. all over again? That would be a little stupid. XD And then... I wonder what difference there should be from there though... lol.
The way I see it, well consider it. The whole game, you have been, at first glance, little more than a pawn in the grand scheme of things. Used by Lynx, FATE, the Dragons and Belthasar, all to reach their goals, be they good or bad. All these schemes created a great chain, leading up until one point, the battle against the Time Devourer.
And none of these schemes would have worked if not for you. One single life was the key component that saved existence itself.
Right. ^^ I think you explained it pretty well. :) So, what do you think though? Do you think it was pretty good, like me? (Well the very end of it where he wakes up to see Leena... hm... I guess the ending could use some more work but I thought it was overall nice, especially because of the music. ^^)
lol. Let me rephrase that. It's not like your dumb or anything if you don't understand it. By smart I actually mean wise. :) You got to have the wise man as some kind of philosopher or something to really understand it. ^^ That, or just look up info somewhere and read up on ALL of it, and try to work it out, everything that's been put into the game, plot/story, setting, characters, dialogue and what not and see if it makes any more sense. ^^
lol. You know, I figured that maybe the Chrono Trigger people are just ghosts, illusions, thoughts, dreams or what not and not really real and alive even towards the end. And with all the confusing concepts, just think about Time Loops, parallel universes, alternate realities, other dimensions, different possible changes in time... Time is a very complicated thing, and so is the meaning of our lives... that is why a game like Chrono is hard to understand. You got to be smart like Square-Enix. :)
I liked the game, but it felt like the story didn't really start until the second disc. And then you got most of the plot, but you didn't play any real part in it other than killing the time devourer or saving schala like some random deus ex machina. Important, but why 'you?'. you only get summarized most of the things instead of playing it. i really liked the concept, i loved the music, the characters i brought seemed hollow except for Harle. Kid had a vital role, but i weren't fond of her...
lol. I know, her character was all like... lol. She was a bit too crazy and violent. ^^ Characters like her might just take some time getting used to... :)
lol. Some things like this have a deep, meaningful, and complicated story where you just have to go really deep in some kind of philosophical thought to really understand it. (And to prove my point, just look at the 3 Gurus in this game. :))
i've finish this game more than 4 times and i kept using draggy glenn and chrono to do all my fighting..they are the best and 1 time i used the last evolution of evil pip discarding draggy..those four are the nicest looking characters in the game....
Sans the blonde hair, is the girl the land of Israel? Is the barrier around her, the ashkenazi, and is the monster behind her, Arab muslims? Does serge represent the Messiah?
Lavos, in might, power, and evil, is Akin to Islam. The barrier around the girl, is akin to how the ashkenazi do not let Israel breathe the free air. An Serge, is akin to the Messiah, who will shatter both.
no this does not represent a religion in anyway although certain aspects of it can relate to anything this takes place in a different world than ours and has its own ways of life... therefore it can not be linked to anything in our world...
sorry, its just the way I see it; I see the girl as Israel, the barrier around her as the Arabs, and the monster as ashkenazi Jews, while Serge, I see as the Messiah. I do not believe the Messiah will be a friend to ashkenazi Jews. Not if he stands for justice.
sorry but if more people see things that way its basically saying people are evil because of their descent which is wrong, and thats why humans have always been at war with each other, this is a game and its basic principle lies in japanese influence and not middle eastern influence....also is that what some people think the messiah is?...no wonder they fall so easy later
clueless me couldn't figure this out. I almost had it :P

And the game could be a bit harder I guess. Everything else is just perfection to me.

first time I got this ending I had to use a strategy guide; the game was like, HARD. However upon a revisit, I was a hardened Dragon Quest VIII veteran, battle scarred by the Dragovian lord; upon a revisit, THAT time it was easy compared to DQ VIII
stardingo747 2 years ago
LOLS DQ Viii (only took me 90 hours for full completion), but you wanna be scarred, youplay through Dragon Warrior 7 on psx...125 hours ...my god....really, you must battle "God" at the end,..most amazing long game I have ever played,...wonderful and brilliant.

That is how many hours I logged on it, over the course of a solid year, I beat it twice, both times around 90 hours.
I heard Dragon Warrior 7 sucked though.
Come on though cut me some slack; Crono Cross is easy compared to Dragon Quest VIII

@ComradeSephiroth Well said
Grobyc315 7 months ago
@Grobyc315 It's not emotional in the same way as, say, Aeris' death in FF7 is. More of a general dark and depressing mood, one that makes me think of my own eventual death - and with it, all those uncomfortable mysteries about eternity, nonexistence and the afterlife.

did you guys noticed that when you cast a element, it will create a tone, which all of it being placed in the right spot it will create the melody that is playing, as princess schala escape from the time of devourer.

the strategy guide did not mention that, but, its kind of easy to figure out; the colors and the corresponding music is shown as a clue throughout the game.

you have to keep it on level 8!
bommi2603 2 years ago
Cheat??? no way
The chrono cross element says: 8+_8 which means you can put it anywhere you wants it's just that when you put it on level 1 elements it will be:
Chrono Cross - 7...but chrono cross doesn't have any attack power so you can just put it in level 1 and it will be WAY MORE EASIER to complete it...
Just give it a try, it will work...

Ultimatebrownstuff 3 years ago
Personally I did it the second time....how???It's simple....
First of all you must attack with all the guys so your element level will be 8, next just wait until he uses an attack (Omega yellow or green)
After that it is your turn >_>"...USE LEVEL 1 ELEMENTS so that it will be harder for him to attack...use everyone's elements even Serge's...personally I putted Chrono Cross in level 1 elements and after I got "yellow, red, green, blue, black, white"I used it and it worked perfectly!!! Enjoy! ;)
Imperdoksus 2 years ago

Wait, what? In my case, he filled these colors by HIMSELF. Let him go on, when you start casting yourself, he will not go easy on you and will often interrupt.
Dyndyrydyndyn 1 year ago
@guitargamer1000889 Yeah it sometimes takes several tries to get the Yellow Red Green Blue Black White pattern and then hit the Chrono Cross, the Time devourer throws so many different elements that may end up wrecking your pattern
skeeterb2006 1 year ago
@guitargamer1000889 That's actually the point; he interrupts you with only one to go. So the solution is to "trick" it into giving you the *first* color of the chain; that way you can cast all the others and use the cross. Since it always casts the color opposite of what you need to continue the chain, cast the chain until the next color would be green, then wait. It'll cast yellow, which is the first color of the chain. Now you can cast all the other colors and use the cross.
LeandroPardini 1 year ago
@guitargamer1000889
easy. Place Chrono Cross at Tech level 1 along with 6 of the other colored elements. Strike up to level 8. Use yellow and red from your level 1 techs, then defend until everyone is at 7.0. THIS IS THE MOST CRUCIAL STEP. TD will use yellow. Then you just go through your level 1 elements going up until u can use CC.
Boom
I beat Time Devourer in less than 10 minutes every time...when I wish to get this ending.

AkumaUchitoru 3 years ago
The way I see it, well consider it. The whole game, you have been, at first glance, little more than a pawn in the grand scheme of things. Used by Lynx, FATE, the Dragons and Belthasar, all to reach their goals, be they good or bad. All these schemes created a great chain, leading up until one point, the battle against the Time Devourer.
And none of these schemes would have worked if not for you. One single life was the key component that saved existence itself.
dude91011 3 years ago 2
Right. ^^ I think you explained it pretty well. :) So, what do you think though? Do you think it was pretty good, like me? (Well the very end of it where he wakes up to see Leena... hm... I guess the ending could use some more work but I thought it was overall nice, especially because of the music. ^^)
AkumaUchitoru 3 years ago
It was nice. It definitely did what it set out to do, which is make you think.
Also, given how Kid and Serge have already screwed destiny, time and FATE to be together several times already, I reckon one more time wouldn't hurt.
Especially given that last scene.
And I liked the ending. Life and Radical Dreamers: Without Taking The Jewel are amazing themes.)
dude91011 3 years ago
lol. Let me rephrase that. It's not like your dumb or anything if you don't understand it. By smart I actually mean wise. :) You got to have the wise man as some kind of philosopher or something to really understand it. ^^ That, or just look up info somewhere and read up on ALL of it, and try to work it out, everything that's been put into the game, plot/story, setting, characters, dialogue and what not and see if it makes any more sense. ^^
AkumaUchitoru 3 years ago
lol. You know, I figured that maybe the Chrono Trigger people are just ghosts, illusions, thoughts, dreams or what not and not really real and alive even towards the end. And with all the confusing concepts, just think about Time Loops, parallel universes, alternate realities, other dimensions, different possible changes in time... Time is a very complicated thing, and so is the meaning of our lives... that is why a game like Chrono is hard to understand. You got to be smart like Square-Enix. :)

Important, but why 'you?'. you only get summarized most of the things instead of playing it. i really liked the concept, i loved the music, the characters i brought seemed hollow except for Harle.
