He would have summoned Lavos, tried to kill it, and died in the attempt.

>>23669130
But aren't the people in the present time all "WE WON A WAR AGAINST A POWERFUL WIZARD"?

>>23669130
Or maybe he would beat lavos.
Who knows.

>>23669178
That's only because Crono and co. went back in time and kicked his ass.

>>23669191
Maybe, but seeing as the player can beat Magus, yet would be raped by Lavos at that point, it is unlikely.

>>23669272
..they say it in the beginning before they go back in time.

>>23669130
The new hidden ending would still occur, abeit without Crono Marle and Lucca.

TIME PARADOX

>>23669272
But that was three on one, plus the Masamune.
Shit was bullshit.

He would have completed the ceremony and got himself ated

and that would have been cool with him the dude loves death

>>23669345
Time travel doesn't work that way. in the year 600AD, Crono, Lucca, Marle and Frog beat the shit out of Magus. That is set in stone. Crono and co. have been forever fated to be stuck in time travel hijinks They've always gone back to beat Magus, and they always will.

>>23669178
Yeah, because they're stupid enough to think that MAGUS DEAD = WE WIN. The mystics probably gave up once Lavos killed Magus.
>>23669191
No, Magus would have been destroyed. Didn't you see what happened to him when he tried to fight Lavos in 10k BC as the Prophet? He got incapacitated by one fucking move.

Lavos kills magus easily and goes back to sleep, mystics are shocked at the event and leave themselves open for the army to wipe them out.

You are now listening to Schala's theme.

MANUALLY

>>23669505
Wouldn't the forest that Robo saved be in the beginning of the game then, since all that already happened?

>>23669505
Then Lara should have never been paralyzed.
Then Cyrus' grave should have never fallen into disrepair.

>>23669505
Time travel works differently in fiction, man.

In the "Lavos Just as Planned" timeline Magus gets eaten and Frog dies cold and alone in a hole

Here's some Janus.

cool story bro

>>23669609
>>23669685
>>23669687
Points taken. Let's adjust the theory then.

In Chrono Trigger, time works like this:
There is the "set timeline" that exists currently. It involves some of the crews time travel escapades, but some don't exist in it yet. Then, there's the "ideal timeline." This is the one you are working towards throughout the game. It includes things like the forest, and other shit you actually see change as a result of your actions.

If you remember the scene where Robo is being repaired after he helps make the forest, the gang theorizes that there is some sort of benevolent force pushing them to bring about a more perfect world, or the "ideal timeline." So this theory does have some in-game backing.

>>23669505
It is not. They changed the past once they went there. They changed the future.

Had Crono just picked up Marle, brought her back to the Present and got the death penalty like Yakra wanted, the world would have ended in 1999 on Lavos Day like it was supposed to.

Take, for instance, the forest that Robo regrows. Were it destined to happen, we would have seen it before camping. Same with Lucca's mom, she wouldn't be dead in the beggining of the game.

Think of it as Back to the Future. Every time they change something, a new timeline is born. A similar timeline, but different nonetheless.

>>23670179
Actually her mom is just crippled.

>>23670337
Ok, crippled. My mistake.

>>23670049
The entity is the planet

>>23670376
To be fair, I'm sure she'd rather be dead

You know this game was called
Chrono Nigger in Japan right?

>>23669505
This isn't true. You see the immediate effects of beating Magus change the future. If this were the case, the first time you went to the cathedral there would have been no statue of Magus. You can later change the future further by beating (or not beating) Ozzie. It's pretty set Crono and crew are derailing events and creating new timelines.

>>23670397
Not if her daughter randomly showed up as a teenager and saved her.

>>23670466
Exactly, the mystics are assholes in Medina village at first, but after you fight Magus, they worship Ozzie. Kill him and they turn nice.

>>23670472
Also, how awkward would that be in the future-present?
"Mom, can I stay over at Crono's?"
"No, honey."
"BITCH I FUCKING SAVED YOUR ASS I OWN YOU!"

>>23670588
>>23670472
She's still dead inside, dammit, she wouldn't care any way.

>>23670760
How is she dead inside? She seems pretty happy after you save her.

>>23670812
Wouldn't you be? You almost got mangled by a machine, I'd be pretty fucking happy too.

>>23670448

excuse me while i pass through...

>>23670979
Would you be happy with a man that almost mangled you

Look at that filthy house, and she's always sitting down looking forlornly out the window until you walk in. She pops up and says "I'm gonna do laundry!" with a saccharine smile, but I know she's hurting, a hurt almost as painful as what the leg machine did. Almost did.

>>23671361
Good point.

Also I'm pretty sure Janus wished he was born a girl

Throughout the game, you can change the future by doing things in the past. The game does not act like you have already done all the things you're going to do.

Magus would have turned out the same way he was by 1000 A.D.: a memory given tribute through a statue in the middle of the town of monsters.

>>23671518
Make comics of it NOW!

>>23671361
Didn't know you were a 4chan regular.

Dammit, more stuff like this.

>>23671687
I'm more around /co/ than here, that could be why.

>>23671633
Maybe I will!

>>23671833
Dalton was suck a dick

but an awesome dick nonetheless

Why is time travel always such a cluster fuck of nonsense?

>>23669582

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caRKvQAyU7M

Superior in every way.

>>23672225
Frog and Magus are my favorite.

>>23672216
It's time travel. If it wasn't a cluster of fuck, it wouldn't be any fun.

>>23672225
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3-TgT-N_B4&feature=related
even more superior.

Radical Dreamers!

>>23671831

Oh, lord. I lol'd so hard.

>>23672225

kck... kck...


keroro...

Dammit now I'm going to have to look for the OST before working on this paper now.

>>23669097
They address this in the game some what.

- If Crono & party never traveled through time, Magus would have tried to summon Lavos and would be sucked into Time's eclipse as a result(We meet this version of Magus in the secret ending).

- Frog rescues Leene, but doesn't battle Yakra, Without Magus OR the Masamune to worry about, he simply lives his life in the cursed woods..

- Robo is built in the distant future, but remains dormant.

- Lavos lands on Tyranno Layer, Ayla does not storm the palace as she would with Crono.(She has to remain alive or else Lavos would never be named)

- Ocean Palace occurs on schedule, Queen Zeal is killed and Schala is sent to Time's Eclipse.(Her magic pendant is somehow passed down as an heirloom in the Guardian royal family) The Ocean Palace never rises.

- The Day of Lavos occurs on schedule, Lavos goes dormant and his offspring leave the planet in the future.

Tyrano Fortress never leaves my head

>>23669505
that goes against the point of the game. If they're fated to kill magus, they're fated to kill lavos, and if they're fated to kill lavos, they would never have known about lavos because the only way they knew about it was from the lavos-destroyed future, which shouldn't exist if their killing lavos is set in stone.

>>23671831
Make more Lucca pics.

>>23672692
That's why time travel is finnicky and always destined to have more holes than a pyro going head to head against a heavy.

>>23672834
That was a shitty analogy.

>>23672817
Isn't there enough Lucca art already?

>>23672926

>>23669097
>would of
IT'S "WOULD HAVE", YOU IDIOT. DON'T YOU MORONS EVER PAY ATTENTION IN SCHOOL?!

>>23672975

How did Marle / Leene get Schala's pendant? Schala was wearing it when Lavos destroyed the Ocean Palace.

>>23673120
Not to mention Schala gave it to Kid. But, as Lavos was resting in a place beyond time, I guess the normal laws don't apply to her.

>>23673120
In the original timeline Schala got crunched in the Ocean Palace, possibly drowned, and the pendant fell into the ocean where it would later be salvaged by a crazed fisherman that gives it as a gift to the Guardia royal family.

>>23669097
Whatever happened to him at the beginning of the game. The way the world is when the game starts out is exactly how things turned out WITHOUT Chrono and the gang fucking with the time stream. Think about it, at that point they haven't even gone through time yet so how could history be any different from what it is in the beginning of the game?

I always just imagined Crono's opinion on all of this was "Do I get to hit it with my sword?"

The extra bullshit was what he had to deal with in order to stab things.

New DS Ending:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZ20N6syuwc

>what would of happened to Magus?

He would secretly become a nigger

>>23673297
How do you find this out?

I'm surprised there's no rule 34 on Chrono Trigger yet.

>>23673748

10/10. Excellent.

>>23673748

>>23673379
maggiekarp should draw that new ending.

Schala dancing on top of Lavos while Gato sings accompanied by Marle and Lucca. Toma could be the spinning bartender.

IF U WERE KILLED TOMORROW, I WOULDNT GO 2 UR FUNERAL CUZ ID B N JAIL 4 KILLIN DA MOTHA FUKER THAT KILLED U!

WE TRUE HOMIES
WE RIDE TOGETHER
WE DIE TOGETHER

anyone else nearly cry when they saw crono die at the black omen then going back in time to see him alive. that or using his clone, which doesnt seem the same, hes just a puppet he aint the same person ;_;

>>23673870
DAMN IT /v/ QUIT GIVING ME A BONER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>So if Crono, Marle & Lucca never did the whole time travel shit

Then this.

>>23673878
Chrono Trigger styled Rickroll?

>>23673736
It's a fan theory, doesn't make much sense with Cross taking the pendant away even though it was kind of very important.

>>23673878
Gato? GATO!?

>>23673977
>>23674012
Yes, the new final end all makes sense now...

>>23673931
It's 600 AD, not 800 AD

>>23673977
Never gonna give Schala up

>>23674012
Gato would be busy dancing and making that disco lights attack effect.

>>23674078
I know.

I didn't bother changing the image.

i want to see a rick astley gif with him doing robos laser spin

>>23673878
There should be two Lavos babies dancing in the background.

if zeal had been a good parent and slapped her kids around then they never would have fucked up the ocean palace and ruin the floating world

>>23673942
Wow. Now I have a fetish for robots giving chicks anal.

>>23672600
>- If Crono & party never traveled through time, Magus would have tried to summon Lavos and would be sucked into Time's eclipse as a result(We meet this version of Magus in the secret ending).

Actually no, because this Magus hints that in his world they've already defeated Lavos, its possible he is the end game Magus from the ending where you kill Lavos through the Black Omen and he is still searching for Schala, though its possible hes from another timeline altogether as they did say somewhere in the game "There are as many worlds as there are potentialities"

>>23669097
I've started, so I'll finish......you ALL!

>>23670049
>Two Timelines

Where have I heard this before?

>>23674808
dunno lol

Chrono Cross was better.

>>23671831
Are you in anyway related to this guy...err, gal?

>>23674596
Now?

>>23673748
There is. I've seen a picture of robo topping frog and fapping him off.

>>23674873
Fuck yes

>>23674939

>>23674939
Reported.

>>23674849
Nope, but this is not the first time a comparison has been drawn. I think that guy (gal?) is a lot better than I am currently, besides.

So during the Fated Hour Robo goes into an abandoned factory where he encounters Mother Brain and his Girlfriend. After a fierce battle he gains his girlfriends ribbon and gain three speed and ten magic defense.

Therefore it only makes sense that if Robo were to wear a Dress he would become incredibly powerful.

>>23675152
Now it's time for Japanese CT comics that don't make sense

>>23675438
Until this thread I had a surprising lack of Chrono Trigger images.

>>23675438
Robo works at a Sister Cafe

FROG YOU MOTHERFUCKERS

Flea's bra?

>>23669097
>would of

jesus christ man

>>23675632
Nigger version of the boss at the Sun Palace?

>>23675632
Wat?

Guys, I have something to confess.


I thought Flea was a man until just this year, when I discovered otherwise.

I played Chronotrigger on SNES.

>>23675632
He spammed the hell out of that move this time around.

>>23675665
Alluring Top

>>23675876
I though Flea was a dude.

>>23675789
>>23675817
Its "Dark Matter" from Kirby.

>>23675938
>>23675876
I WISH I HAD THAT DS SCREEN THAT FROG CALLS FLEA A WOMAN BUT THEN HE SAID THAT HE'S REALLY A GUY WITH BIG BOOBS!

...but I guess team Awesome killing stuff works.

>>23675876
Flea is a man. He says so. He's just a magical transsexual. Or something.

Flea is where I suspect I started my fetish of Futa/traps

Flea is a dude, god damn people.

>>23676172
GAPAR IS THE SCATMAN!

I always thought Flea just had penis envy.

>>23676299
Agreed.

I would fuck Flea.
Or let him fuck me.
Whatever floats his boat, as long as he gives it to me
