I've recently been on an old school RPG kick and picked up Chrono Trigger which is a phenomenal game. Any other suggestions on similar games?

I think Xenogears [same team] is absolutely in the same league and IMO a whole different bracket of excellence.

I played through disk 1 on a rental back in the day and it was amazing. I've heard that the ending is disappointing though.

Oh, I forgot Legend of Dragoon, that was a really cool game too.

The ending is absolutely mind blowing. The final FMV isn't the greatest but you've already got the ending by the time you fight the final boss.

I know there's all the controversy over disc 2 being rushed, but I never minded at all. It actually felt kinda refreshing after the way that most rpgs went at the time. It was all about seeing the characters change and grow over time that was really satisfying for me
