20 years later I don't think you need to feel bad about playing a Chrono Trigger ROM instead of paying $6 for what is surely just also the ROM.

... Hmmm, I thought it was supposed to be refreshed. From the screenshots, it doesn't seem so.

From Wikipedia [wikipedia.org], it sounds like they've fixed stuff, but it's definitely not a full remaster:
Quote from Wikipedia :
Square Enix released Chrono Trigger without an announcement for Windows via Steam on February 27, 2018. This version includes most content from the Nintendo DS port besides the arena mode, as well as the higher resolution graphics from the mobile device releases, support for mouse and keyboard controls, and autosave features, along with additional content such as wallpapers and music. The PC port initially received negative reception due to its inferior graphical quality, additional glitches, UI adapted for touchscreens, and failure to properly adapt the control scheme for keyboards and controllers. In response, Square Enix provided various UI updates and several other improvements including adding an original graphics option based on the game's original version, fixing glitches introduced, and adding a true 16:9 widescreen presentation for the first time, to address the aforementioned complaints. In total, five major updates were released—the first on April 10, 2018, and the last on August 3, 2018—all of which have substantially improved its overall reception. On March 11, 2022, a sixth major patch was released; it added ultrawide 21:9 support and other quality of life features and improvements.
I just want to know how well it plays on the Deck compared to options in Emudeck. For $7, I have no problem buying such as classic again if it's improved.

Best game ever made? And this will make the… 12th time I've bought it?

Why not

The best version is the DS version.

Still possibly the greatest RPG of all time. I vote for the ROM as well, get the real super nintendo experience Smilie The modern version also uses (I believe) a different translation, more literal to the original japanese but also more awkward and less fun.

Unfortunately I went into this game with the expectations that it was the "greatest game of all time" and "greatest RPG of all time" and because of that I was extra critical while playing this and was rather disappointed. Dont go into this game expecting impossible levels of quality especially when it will have the trappings of being a game made in 1995. It's a very solid game mind you, just please don't read all the hype about it being the second coming of Christ
