[@wumbojet]

Frog is such a banger character that Connor immediately liked him only based on his design. He's probably one of if not my favorite Toriyama design.

[@joncarter3761]

I kinda like Robo's design more but I much prefer Frog as a character, he's probably got the best character arc of any of the main characters.

[@moosesues8887]

Over goku is crazy work ngl

[@oriondourden]

Connor's voice for Frog is on point.

[@wumbojet]

@@moosesues8887 I don't really like any dragon ball designs that much besides piccolo, who is probably the best original design Toriyama has ever made, so original and inspired that nobody can even reference it without it being extremely obvious.

[@BoBoPriCer]

@@oriondourden Connor uses that voice for nearly everything..

[@whyareyoueven_here]

Connor's JRPG character development over the past few years has been a sight to behold, truly. Who knew the FPS guy who skipped every cutscene in Halo 3 would then become the guy playing Chrono Trigger and reading every lore entry and Fear and Hunger?

[@pt.1273]

I believe Fear and Hunger make him more engaged in game story.

[@bdyussenov477]

In his defense he did mentioned several times that he likes the Halo's story

[@mr_p0p0ff39]

Stan in south park becoming increasingly addicted to board games has that same energy

[@1-upanimations878]

1:25:27 Old habits die hard…. (I know that Connor was tired, but still.)

[@xenotypos]

Well, he still skips some dialogues without reading it, sometimes he's too fast and doesn't see it's a choice and he chooses by accident. But overall it remains a tremendous improvement yeah, I'm really glad he did most of the sidequests (well, they are near mandatory anyway, as he would have been obliterated by the final boss otherwise). His run of CT is pretty good, I think he explored the game better than he did for FF9 (in which he missed truly neat stuff).

[@banonKING]

I lay down my life for the entire game. It is truly the Dream Project.

[@DrSlobGoblin]

I didn't play it until I was passed 30. I hadn't avoided it but I never got around to it when I was younger. Had expectations of "I can see why this is loved but it's definitely the template that's been improved on" and it just wasn't. It felt fresh and fantastic even after years of having played JRPGs.

Conner voice acting the characters adds so much to the experience frfr

[@goodeygoody]

In the spirit of Akira Toriyama, I'd love to see how you'd react to Dragon Quest. The foundation of the series is build upon Akira Toriyama's character design, and its known as the father series of JRPGs, even predating Final Fantasy. Alas, its massively overlooked in the west, as FF was specifically marketed for the west. Its a shame its not recognized as much as FF in America, though its seemingly revered in Japan. But, that's enough background; I'd love if you'd consider a Dragon Quest game in the future. My recommendations are 5, 8, and 11 (Or the upcoming HD-2D remakes) for an introduction to the series. Each entry is standalone, and to be a little partial, Dragon Quest 8 is my personal favorite. Love your videos Connor

[@daenopher]

Dragon Quest 8 and 11 are the best modern ones to play by far and massive fun.

[@Loner098]

Say, didn't 11 kinda do a 180 on the characters' growth in Act 3?

[@goodeygoody]

@@Loner098 I believe 11 to be a good starting point to the series. Story-wise, however, I think 5 and 8 are superior imo. They also happen to be good starting points

[@Saz103]

This is good but dq is so cookie cutter and basic I don’t know if he would appreciate or just call it lame and old just based on how he sees media.

[@anthonybowman3423]

For me DQs were always very hit and miss. The best of them are great, but the others feel very dull by comparison. Part of that is that they are the lineage from which a lot of JRPGs come from so the things they did that were new and interesting are just old hat now and in all JRPGs. Still they do tend to come off as milquetoast.

[@diogofilipe3293]

Never seen a better made full play through of CT Huge props to the editor! Great small story recaps, it didn't feel like 100mins! Stellar video in every aspect

[@statixfear]

I binge watched the F out of the VODs where this was streamed on but I love the condensed videos you manage to create for all of your JRPG playthroughs, especially with all the funny edits in between. Looking forward to seeing more of Connor's journey towards playing more JRPGs in the future.

[@pwnagecakes8934]

600 AD queen Leene on the couch with 5 goblins is a wild edit

[@manmooooose]

Man, I always love how much, work are done in his videos, so thank you TinyTorgue for making such great edits and Connor for making great content, I hope to do something like that someday and hope to me you and say thank you, as well get my room reviewed as well hehehe, I hope that the charity livestream will go great again like last year, I wish I could partake in it but sadly can't, so best of luck and I hope and pray for the best at the charity livestream, so again thank you also great thumbnail ChikTheArtist. 😊

[@xbolt678]

Forget best JRPG, this is the best game I've ever played. Not my favorite, but no one can deny how iconic Chrono Trigger is. Glad Connor enjoyed it!

[@telanos2492]

Connor has come a long way, from skipping text to finishing ChronoTrigger. I think he is ready for the next step in narrative excellence: Planescape Torment.

[@TheSeth256]

I can't see him playing it, the jRPGs are pretty casual and relaxing, in Planescape you need to read walls upon walls of text to understand and appreciate the game.

[@sleipnir_8364]

My favorite JRPG gamer CDawgVA. I actually stopped watching the livestreams that weekend and played Chrono Trigger myself to not get spoiled. I watched the vods a few days later.

[@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley]

Having anime cutscenes like that and back in the 90's is amazing. I've never played Chrono Trigger, so I'm happy you did so I could live it through you, lol.

[@xenotypos]

Weeeeell, honestly the anime scenes were added in the PS1 port later, it wasn't in the original Snes version. In general, you couldn't store a lot of video (or any video) in cartridges, so we had to wait the next gen of consoles (playstation 1 and Saturn) in which the games were on CDs (not cartridges) to have enough space to put videos. FF7 in particular (1997), will have LOTS of them and open the gates. CT (1995) was a bit before that. That being said, I never really found those cutscenes in Chrono Trigger added anything. For me the normal scenes were good enough and the problem with the cutscenes is that you see the same action twice (cutscene + normal scene) which kinda kills the tension sometimes.

[@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley]

@@xenotypos Ah, that explains why the animation looked so good, it was added later. Makes sense.

[@christianboi7690]

It’s not that long of a game, but it’s perfectly paced, all the side content is immaculate, and there are a ton of extra endings that you can get in new game plus depending on when and how you defeat Lavos.

[@sacredones]

cant believe i watched this video until the end without fast forwarding thank you, connor's editors

[@seekittycat]

Wonderful editing

[@Sharkopath]

As someone else who just played this for the first time ever recently it’s funny how similar your thoughts were to mine. Meaning when the boss fights felt “OMG how much health does this thing have” to turn around and kill it within double digits of damage. Also I didn’t know you could crash into Lavos with the ship and ship the first stage. Pretty awesome all the different endings and how to reach them. Glad to see you enjoyed the game!

[@TheDancerMacabre]

This has been one of the most entertaining playthroughs I've seen because of how Connor inadvertently proved how great the game is designed. Right when you think: Man, this fight feels like it drags- you beat it. During the trial, you're reminded of all your misdeeds, and we see Connor squirming in the chair. We never see him grind for the ultimate McGuffin because there isn't one and there isn't a grind. The only thing I would've loved is to see his reaction if you brought Magus to fight Queen Zeale
