Thirty years later, there’s meaning hidden in the characters who saved the world.

    Did anyone else always name the characters after their “real” names: Nadia for the princess, Glenn for the frog, Janus for the Wizard, and R-66Y for the robot?

    I also named the inventor “Tara” after her father.

      I once loaned my cart to a friend, and looked at their save when I got it back. They named Crono “Punk”, I think Lucca was “Glass”, and Magus was “Goth”. Sadly I don’t have the save anymore and I can’t remember the others.

      Edit: Also wasn’t there a typo or something when Robo is first introduced? Like R-66Y vs R66-Y? I tried to name him correctly once but messed it up because of that.

    I never see anyone bring up Queen Leene in the conversation about how to pronounce “Marle”

    I think it’s just “Marl” to make the connection to “Leene” feel more natural. “Marl | Leene”.

    Marleen

    Unless you pronounce it “Marlie” and “Leenie”.

    Weird to see them talk about how it’s related to secret of mana, which was almost FFIV, thus is basically a FF game but not just say “it was literally released under Final Fantasy Chronicles on PS1 so it’s basically a FF game.”

    I think the Italian Luca connection has to do with da Vinci being an inventor. That’s the connection I made when I was first playing it when it came out.

    Question - the scene in the thumbnail, of everyone hanging out around a fire - does (or where does) that show up in the game?

    I played through recently and don’t remember coming across it. Not sure if I forgot or missed something obvious.
