What the hell is this insane graphic? ??? “Chrono Trigger’s Second Coming × Latest HD-2D”
A mad turn-based RPG where dot characters scamper around a 2.5D world rendered in UE5, traveling through time and space. The immersion of just holing up in this bonkers dot-graphic world—whether in an ancient era stomping with dinosaurs or a cyberpunk future—is seriously freaking amazing. It’s the best seeing veteran overseas gamers lose their shit in hilariously low-res arguments, splitting into factions like “This is a JRPG!” “Nah, the character’s got a nose piercing, so it’s a Western game!”
