I love Woolsey but have never played Chrono Trigger. Is there a mashup "best of both worlds" version out there that adds the best Woolsey-isms to the longer script version, like the Woolsey Uncensored for FF VI?

CT doesn't feel quite as wacky as Woolsey's earlier scripts--the lighter tone of the game helps with that--and most of the problem with the original stems from Nintendo of America's censorship and a handful of localization choices that won't land with everyone (for example, a main character speaks like Cyan).

Unless you hated the FF6 revision in the GBA games or later, I'd say the DS or PC versions of Chrono Trigger do what you're looking for by revising but not completely rewriting the original.
