A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Left feeling a bit empty after playing it for the first time a few months ago(why did I wait so long?) I am afraid no JRPG will be able to surpass it. Would love to have a discussion about similar games that reach the same quality level (Note: I have already played Final Fantasy VI ).

Nothing surpasses chronotrigger even after all these years.

Two contemporaries of chronotrigger that were much different but still quite good are terranigma and seiken detensu 3.

Two games that claimed to be trying to do something similar mechanically that are RPGs are septerra core and anachronox. Both are for PC and should run on a potato these days.

The legacy of Kain series and in particular the soul reaver offshoot has a great story and time travel elements, but they're more action puzzle games.
