well, let's analyze which game you might like more...

Chrono Cross- first off, great game. if you loved Trigger, then definitely play this one sometime... soon! has one of the best scores EVER and around 40 playable characters... (i still don't have them all). has a tropical feeling world and a pretty deep storyline. Drawback= no chrono...

Vagrant Story- another great game. VERY dark world, story, characters and undertones. one of my favorite villians ever and an endlessly deep combat and armor customization system. beautiful cinematic style that relies mostly on in-game graphics... truly a great adventure. drawback= most of the time is spent in "dungeons".

Xenogears- arguably the best rpg EVER. it has a very long first play-through (it took me around 100 hours just to advance the story all the way. it has giant mechs and likable characters. the story gets a little preachy on life and its meaning and carries some serious religious messages. i recommend it highly. drawback= a little confusing at first...

*note=all of these games are very highly recommended, but you need to just go with whichever one you WANT to play. i hope i helped...
