Unhappy I never killed end boss in Chrono Trigger

I just kept getting the: "But the future refused to change..." ending.

I tried so many times to kill that end boss, but when he transforms and has those two little aliens healing him, I just couldn't figure it out... Tried over and over and over... Max lvl, best sword... Max everything as far as I know... No go.. I hear there are multiple endings too...

I've never even gotten to the end boss, I always get to the part around where you beat Magus and then for some reason quit playing.

lol that made laugh.

Chrono Trigger is the only Japanese rpg I've ever made it to end of, so don't feel bad

I bailed out on the first 2 Breath of Fire[s] and FFIII[usa] and even FFVII although 7 wasnt my fault someone stole it...

The little alien on the right is the real Lavos. Try to kill him, not the middle one. The others are some sort of shielding system, I think. Also, my memory is fuzzy, but I think if you kill the middle one, the two little ones start using a really powerful attack, so it's best to attack the left one first.

I remember Frog Flare being very helpful the first time I fought him, as well. And the way to get the multiple endings is by fighting the final boss at different stages of the game.

I can't even get into the game for some reason, despite my love for RPGs. The same happens with all those Akira Toriyama art games though, Dragon Quest, Blue Dragon, the lot, can't get into any of them. Perhaps it's all those Dragonball Z episodes I used to watch, watched it so much it left me unable to play anything that looks like it ever again...

why cant you get into the game?
chrono trigger is my all time fav snes rpg.. aside from mario rpg :P

lol

its the only snes game that i tacked like 200+ hrs on.. and you can fight the end boss.. right at the start of the game after you play game + with all your armor n such..
easy as pie.. and leads to the thousands of endings the game has..

anything chrono trigger .. lemme know..

ps did anyone play the horrid sequel for psx? CHRONO CROSS
also i own like 3000 rpgs.. console only.. counting computer rpgs would take me far to long.. as ive collected since c64 era.. lol

well ok.. it should not have been related to chrono trigger.. if it was a game that was not a sequel to chrono trigger.. it woulda been decent..
but... its system was decent.. so dont get the wrong idea here.. i just mean its not a good follow up game ... at all.
had it come out on its own.. with say a diff name.. mighta stood a chance :P

I don't like how it rendered the whole of Chrono Trigger pointless. I haven't actually played the game, so I'll quote from TV Tropes.

Oh, and your actions caused millions of people to never be born and get flung into non-existance and curse your existence. Time Travel is in fact a horrible thing that causes worse things to happen. The world in the future collapses thanks to the technology created by Lucca. And Schala merged with Lavos to become an even more powerful, unkillable being that Chrono and his friends cannot defeat. And Dalton, a minor mini-Boss that defeated himself, remembers Chrono and his friends, conviently winds up in their time period, and turns a tiny little town into a world-conquering army so he can murder everyone in Guardia and burn it to the ground. Oh, but Magus lives. He just may or may not be a different character in Chrono Cross. Depending on the Ret Con that day. And he can't save his sister at all, so she rejects him. Aren't you glad you went back in time to save the future?

* Both ports of Trigger released since Cross also added extra cutscenes to further emphasize this fact: The Fall of Guardia did not exist in the SNES version, so the game never ended with "Unexplainable army kills everyone in Guardia including our heroes." The Dream Devourer fight in the DS version was also new and pretty much exists for you to fight, win, and then be told you can't win and get sent back to the past...thus Chrono and his friends cannot stop the horrible events in the future from happening let alone their own horrible demises.
From what I've heard about Chrono Cross, that's accurate. I don't think Frog and Ayla die, though. They're dead by 1000AD since they went back to their own times, but I don't think there's any indication they didn't live happily ever after. But like I said, I haven't played it.

I can't explain it, I just couldn't get into it, and as I mentioned above, the same happens with all those Toriyama styled games, it's weird. very weird considering I love RPG's, and own so many that I can't count them either.
