what's a scene or environment from a video game that makes you feel wistful and nostalgic? not a cutscene or a character or a story beat, but like, a *place*

it's funny, terranigma is my literal #1 favorite game of all time but i've never played chrono trigger or secret of mana

chrono trigger is still worth playing now i think. the whole thing is shockingly pretty. combat is lots of fun. character development is great. plot is serviceable. the ~time travel~ also has some fun mechanics associated with it

ha yeah. it must've looked a lot cooler in 1995 but now it's just awkwardly incongruous with the rest of the beautiful graphics, plus annoying. i feel similarly about the airship in FF6

It's still got the music going for it, at least!
