When I first started playing Chrono Cross, I loved it because of the music, the gameplay, the story, and especially the main characters.
I enjoyed the color system during fights and thought it was unique and fun.
The story had enough mystery to keep me wanting to know what was going on and what had happened and what was going to happen.
There were a ton of characters, but the main ones kept the story moving and interesting.
Then, came the ole switcheroo. Without giving the story away, I felt like the game had pulled a bag over my head, struck me with a 2x4, and forced me to do something I had been fighting against the entire game up until that point! (Hopefully this is cryptic enough to not give anything away.) You will know what I'm talking about as soon as it happens, about midway through the game, I think.
Anyway, after the 'event', I tried to continue playing the game under the new circumstances, but I just didn't have the heart for it. So I never returned to it.
The end.
Sadness.

That happened to me with Star Ocean 3 and it's momentum-killing plot-twist. *NM*

I remember just putting the controller down and laughing when that happened. "Really guys?" *NM*

Best track ever, you mean. I had it as my alarm clock for two years.

Great music, but the plot was a bit meh, and too many characters hurt it, I think
