Square Enix suddenly released Chrono Trigger on Steam last week. Several seconds later, fans around the world discovered it was a port of the mobile version of the game. I, too, was disappointed. I made this video with some suggestions on how they could make it better.
The port currently sits at a âMostly Negativeâ rating on Steam, with 374 reviews. The fansâ anger is palpable in the strong words of these reviews.
Fans have raised complaints about Square Enixâs tendency to port their mobile games to PC in the past, though only now have the complaints reached a mass critical enough for Square Enix to respond.
In a statement on the gameâs Steam page a Square Enix rep said they are âaware of all of the issues that youâve raised, which we are currently assessing.â By âAll of the issues,â do they mean that theyâre aware of all of the issues that have plagued all of their ports?
In my video, I theorize that if Square Enix makes any amends at all, theyâll do the least work possible. So I tried to keep my suggestions hyper-realistic.
The gist of my suggestions is: put a drop shadow on the font. Thatâs about it. Please watch the video if you would like to know the obsessive details that accompany this suggestion. It turns out you can get a lot of mileage out of the topic of drop shadows and smartphone screen brightness!
