1999 A.D. is a Time Period in Squaresoft's '' Chrono Trigger ''. CHARACTERISTICS 1999 A.D. is a Technologically advanced age, where humans live inside large domes and use Robot s and Computers in everyday routine. Little of it is seen in the game; the protagonist never interacts with this time's inhabitants. The Day of Lavos occurs during this time period. The Day of Lavos ; he destroys modern civilization and leaves the earth as a barren wasteland; the atmosphere is clouded or otherwise ruined, a state functionally similar to Nuclear Winter , sending the planet into perpetual night, and agriculture disappears. Most of the world's population starves and civilization disappears. Almost no hope of recovery is given. Players access 1999 A.D. only for the Day of Lavos, and can do so at almost any point in the game. However, players are not sufficiently strong to beat him until they have completed most of the game. Why 1999? Chrono Trigger sets the apocalypse in 1999 because of Nostradamus 's prophecy that the world would end in the seventh month (September) of the year 1999. This prophecy was more famous in Japan than in the United States . It should be noted that Chrono Trigger was originally released in 1995, making 1999 a date in the near future, not the past as it is today. |
