Did Belthasar undo the deaths of Lucca and Robo?
« on: May 26, 2011, 05:46:22 pm »
I've been going over the plot of Chrono Cross lately, and it seems to me that in the ideal timeline, the need for the Promethius Circuit to exist would be gone.

Without the Promethius Circuit, Robo would presumably be free, and without FATE wanting to disengage the Promethius Circuit, Lynx would never presumably travel to Lucca's house and kill her.

Do either of these assumptions make any sense?

Sounds reasonable to me.

...huh. Waddaya know. Yup, I think that works. So that means the entire Chrono universe got the happily-ever-after in the end-

Yeah, not really that 'Ideal' when you think about it...

This assumes:

A. That the Prometheus circuit wasn't just a COPY of Robo's program

B. That Lynx actually murdered Lucca.

We can't be sure of either, really. Although that said I highly suspect Balthasar would have undone their deaths. He's that kind of interfering person, trying to save everyone.

I'm actually playing Cross right now, though nowhere near Chronopolis yet. (Down the saving Kid path and just getting the boat...poor Serge, he gets kicked in the balls no matter what he says to Kid.)
