This is pretty much fixed now if you disable "SMT" and set the cores to 3 using the Decky and PowerTools plugin. Steam OS 3.5 is supposed to implement a permanent fix for this issue, it is related to core counts.

Unplayable on Steam Deck. Stutters every 2-3 seconds. Don't buy if you are planning on playing on that.

Best game of all time. I'm definitely not biased.

is the PC port playable? I keep reading reviews saying it has a lot of issues.

It doesn't have to be perfect, but I don't have a SNES anymore and would like to play a reliable version of CT.

Bought it a couple weeks ago on eneba for the same price...

perfectly playable on PC. I use nintendo switch controller plugged in as I noticed some lag using bluetooth. Then again, I am using $5 chinese bluetooth adapter so YMMV.

You don't need to have an SNES system — the Analogue Super NT System is a perfect hardware duplicate (not an emulator) of the SNES system except it has a 1080p hdmi output. I have that and the original SNES cart for Chrono Trigger and it is amazing. You can recreate the old CRT output as well if you prefer.

This game bring back so much Memory. I played in in the Original Super Nintendo.. Spent so many hours on Chrono Trigger. This game is right up there with the OG Final Fantasy and Dragon Warror

I didn't have to do anything to get it to run well a week ago. Maybe Proton experimental? I forget. It runs great for me but I'm not far into yet. Love the increased battle speed and auto attack.
