The world changes.. does Crono remember?
« on: June 09, 2004, 11:21:30 pm »
This doesn't really affect the games so much as it effects fanworks surrounding them. I was curious, after the events of Chronotrigger occure, El Nido is instantly created yaers in the past. Porre is suddenly a military power. There are other changes I'm sure that are a part of the world's history now. Do Crono and friends notice the difference?

The reason I'm wondering is because the timetraveler retains their personal history. However, though those events could be seen as an immidiate result of Crono's actions, it's actually the result of actions in the future.

So, are these changes somehow integrated into chrono's memory like they are integrated into everyone elses? Or does he hold the memory of how things were before those changes were made?

No; he is the same person; time travelers are totally independent of everything.

When you say independent of everything, do you mean they aren't affected by changes other people make either?

I guess I wasnt certain because, at the time crash when el nido is created, he isn't the one actually doing the traveling.

Other people wouldn't affect it either. Even if someone changed history, time traveler's immunity is still in effect. The same Crono is destined to come out of a Gate at a certain time, and this will always happen regardless of what Crono exists prior to that.

This was in the wrong forum.  Moved.

I moved it there because this question is easily answered by referencing the axioms.

Fine, whatever.  I still think this belongs in the other forum, but if you think it belongs here, I won't move it back.  I will, however, point out that it is still a story-related inquiry, and that just because it can be answered by another thread in Analysis doesn't make it belong in General Discussion.
