Right, next family JRPG has been selected: Final Fantasy VII!
We've done 1 - 6, 9 and 10.
But the eldest's best friend has played VII and I'm fearful for spoilers, so it's time.
(We've also done both Chrono games, Blue Dragon and Super Mario RPG)

Yep, that's Chrono Cross done!
What a game, been meaning to finish it for years.
Really enjoyed the Trigger hooks.

Chrono Cross update:
got a bunch more of the Chrono Trigger linking plot today, which is satisfying.
I believe we're headed into the last dungeon of the game tomorrow!

Chrono Cross update:
We're still playing even though there's been a lot of busy weekends allowing us down.
Recently did the Magical Dreamers, so the kids are obsessed with singing that now

Oh my god I'm so bad at White and Black Mage AoE placement.
Me: let's heal this unit
Enemies: move adjacent to the unit and get healed
Me: let's cast Fire on this enemy
Also me: let's use Throw Stone and knock it out of the AoE before the spell casts!

How many of the top 20 best selling PS1 games have you played?
Oh look, my gaps are mostly horror.
I'll get to Suikoden one day... And I've played later Resi games.
