How good is the Steam version today? Does it work well?

[WarioLandGP]

I've heard there were mutliple problems and technical difficulties with it. And even though they've been patched out, people have said the game still doesn't work well for them. Would you recommend getting this port, or sticking with the SNES version?

[Philocrates]

Having just recently purchased it here myself after watching a full video on what all the patches did: It's fine. If you can get the DS version, I'd personally suggest that as it is the best version of the game. If you can't? Steam is perfectly fine now. Can play with original graphics. Text is fixed. Tiles are fixed. Options have been added in. Etc, etc. The only issue I have is if I play the game in full screen I get some pixel wrap around at the top of the screen when changing areas. If I play in windowed that doesn't occur.

The PC version of CT is still a mess. It was never fixed properly before SE abandoned it.

The best version of Chrono Trigger is the SNES version. I'd try to play that. The NDS version has a lot of downgrades to it by comparison. And I think the SNES translation is a lot better than the NDS / mobile / PC version's translation, too.

This is wrong. They fixed A LOT. I just finished a play through with 0 issue.

I'm currently playing it, near the end I think, and so far no issues that I can tell. Maybe if you're a purist for the original there could be some things you notice, but as someone playing it for the first time it looks and plays great.

I ordered a controller for my laptop specifically for this game. With the controller it's fine, without it's unplayable.

They fixed a lot... and it's still not properly fixed. There are still plenty of issues.

If you play with an Xbox controller. If you play with a PS controller, the buttons will be mislabelled. Also, no way to remap buttons, I think.

I bought a 3rd party controller. 99% of the game is fine but there's parts like the magic tent and the computer sound codes where you need to consult Google or YouTube.

There's a controls menu that lets you adjust what does what. It also has an option to adjust where your cursor is on the battle menus and it works like a charm too. On a keyboard on PC, it's working great. And The only thing wrong with the original SNES version is the fact that there's nothing fresh to do after beating the Black Omen and Lavos apart from ending hunting. Steam has the Lost Sanctum and Dimensional Vortexes.

The changes to the menus and UIs are also quite pleasing. The item lists are much more organized and the item descriptions are easier to read and understand. Having a bookmark and file save feature separate from each other is very useful too. Helps with hunting endings and backtracking easily in the same NG+ file.

The only problem is the pixel wrap at the top of the screen. And it looks like the only thing missing apart from the arena is the "time to rest" theme from the Dream's Epilogue credits, but maybe it requires all endings be unlocked. Not sure though.

I highly recommend this port if not scouring for a Retron console and a veritable collector's piece of a cartridge.

As a purist, it's garbage. I own the original cart and I have it on my Wii Virtual Consol. I just beat the game on the Wii again and it's perfect. But the Steam version has a horrible UI and renamed items and other arbitrary changes I can't understand.

It's all based off the DS version, which people regularly say is the best (I don't agree with that though). The translations and name changes was all the DS version, steam is just using a variation of that version.

[Ed1749]

If you havent already played the game 30 times and have every item name memorized from the SNES version, it's fine. Most of the noteworthy issues have been fixed, and the things that make it Chrono Trigger good are unaffected. It's probably the second best version to play unless you're a SNES person.

No Steam version is based on mobile version.
DS version was better than this thing.

DS version is better, yes (barely, it adds grindy end game cash grab dungeons and a cheat arena), but the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ translation began with the DS version and steam and mobile version have it as well.

game has remappable buttons and you can also remap buttons via Steam controller config, and you can also use DS4 Windows and if you mean the buttons wont show up as PS buttons then its not PC versions problem to give you shapes over letters.

lol what? It's LITERALLY the PC versions problem

It's such an easy quality of life thing to put in any game. Square enix does it in other games they make for PC, even, so why the hell would they not do it here? Just pure laziness.
