Chrono Trigger was the first example of a game that came to my head that's just great. I replayed it a few weeks ago as well. It's time better spent than playing a shitty game for 100 hours.

IDK, I bailed around halfway through. I got to the Magus fight, and it felt really RNG dependent. If he attacked in a certain order, I would lose a team member and eventually lose because I couldn't keep up with healing.

Maybe I was too low level, or maybe I didn't have the right items equipped, IDK, but I completely lost interest when I failed several times without knowing what to do differently except hope that he attacked in a different order. So I bailed.

Maybe I'll try it again sometime. I originally played on my phone, but maybe I'll have more patience on my Steam Deck. I really enjoyed the game up to that point, but I just couldn't bear the RNG. I have no problem failing over and over (I love the early Ys games and some bosses took a dozen tries), but I need to see some sort of progress.
