Shall Chrono Trigger Apocalypse be renamed?
« on: January 08, 2010, 01:24:44 am »
Yes... I am thinking of renaming the series, the new name would mean more to the game and the ending. Apocalypse was ment to be the cataclysm and apocalypse of time which still exists... but Crystallis would have much more meaning.

So what shall I do?

I'd have to say go with the name recognition you already have. Just my opinion.

Hey thats the point of the thread I want to hear your guys' opinions.

Either way we will find out. I am really considering this especially since when I put it on newgrounds the submissions show up as CT: Apocalypse, many people don't make the connection.

If it was Chrono Crystallis, people would make the connection much easier.

It is, in my opinion, a major no-no to rename a series. For good or ill, the names you begin with are generally the ones you're stuck with for all time. Names become the very heart and soul of a series, anything else - even if more clever - just won't be the same. If renaming things were really a kosher thing to do, I would have long ago pushed for a renaming of Chrono Trigger Unglued (and a few other things).

Hmm...

Renaming your beloved flash series?  :?

By the way, why Crystallis?  What is it's significance?

I would very much like to know if I may help in CTA6? It's not for the early preview, but I love this project and I felt all warm and tingly inside when you took into mind my dialogue suggestions for CTA5.
