Fan-made Chrono Trigger Sequel Shut Down at 98% Completion

[RinsLastBreath]

So lame - Square Enix issued a cease and desist order to people who were making an unofficial sequel to Chrono Trigger which traced more connections between the plot lines of Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross.

I wonder if anyone will leak the game out anyway? The people who made it couldn't because they'd be at risk for getting a massive lawsuit, but what if they've already shared it with anonymous people online...?

Does anyone on here think that they would like to play this game? Are you fans of Chrono Trigger in the first place? Do you agree with Square Enix shutting them down?

That's not right. They were almost done with it! Imagine spending all that time on something and they just come and are like "no."

This was the first time a "ROM hack" was ever shut down.

I've seen ROM hacks before. There was a remixed harder version of Mario World called Wario World and you played as Wario.

Speculation is that this was just coming out at the wrong time since Square-Enix recently re-released Chrono Trigger for DS.

A leaked version was released online by an anonymous beta tester, but it isn't the 98% done version, it's a much earlier build.
