I also like, when I played Chrono Cross, I also thought a lot about how, you know, at the time, there was a bunch of RPGs like this.
So like, how would you stand out in that, you know, era?
Yeah.

decisions.
Wacky stuff.
Sure.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, it was, it was a PlayStation 1 era.
And that era, PlayStation 1 and Nintendo 64 was where people were just doing whatever the fuck they want in the game developers.
Yeah.
And I kind of dig it.
I mean, you can still find people who do that these days.
But, you know, the formula, so to speak, is much more refined now.
And people generally stick to things so that they can get a return on their, you know, money that they put into making a game.
But back then, people just kind of just went wild and didn't think too much about things,
