Chrono Trigger doesn’t have any random battles? I remember liking it more for that reason.

I just started Mass Effect Legendary Edition a few weeks ago on steamdeck. I’m somewhere in ME2 currently and really enjoying it. I played the original ME back in the day but never finished it. This time I plan to finish the whole trilogy.

Likely a lot of time was spent iterating and experimenting with different ideas, testing out concepts, tweaking, etc. Haven’t played the game but I do work as a software developer.
