Scarlet and Violet took the worst part of Sword and Shield and made it the whole game

I forgot about it for like 2 decades before it resurfaced for no apparent reason. I only rented it for a few evenings, but me an my friend played the shit out of it. Remembering it and Power Stone made me think of how we're in a fighting game renaissance, but the arena fighter has been left behind, or even dismissed as fodder for lisenced game purgatory. The only successful remnant still kicking is the platform fighter, which is really just the arena fighter put on its side

Chrono Trigger may not be in the zeitgeist, but it's absolutely recognized as a classic and sometimes a masterpiece. I would say this game is still thought of quite often. Lufia 2 is a bit more forgotten, but often makes top lists of old RPGs from the golden era (whereas CT is a contender for top 1 in any list)

Arena fighters CAN be good, but people have forgotten the history
