Let's see who was Krishna
Amongst the twelve sons of Aditi I am Vishnu; amongst luminous objects I am the sun. Know Me to be Marichi amongst the maruts, and the moon amongst the stars in the night sky.
Bhagvat Geeta 10.21
So according to Bhagvat geeta lord Krishna was the avatar of Lord Vishnu
Now let's see who was Rama(the main protagonist of the epic Ramayana)
Born as a portion of Vishnu, Kousalya gave birth to the immensely fortunate Rama, the extender of the Ikshvaku lineage and one who possessed all the divine signs.
CE Ramayana 1(17)
Here in the Ramayana it says the same that Rama was none other than Lord Vishnu
Thus,there is no difference between the two because in every yuga Lord Vishnu takes an avatar and free the world from adharmis
And he takes his avatar according to the situation
- Like in the Treta Yuga he took the form of Rama who was known for morals and peace and mostly importantly he is Mariyada Purushottama
- Meanwhile in the dvapar Yuga Vishnu took the form of Krishna who was also know for peace but the avatar of Krishna is also very popular for leelas
In treta Yuga the society was less adharmi as compared to that of Dvapar yuga so when Lord Vishnu came he played his role in the form of Rama and hailed Mariyada as supreme
Meanwhile when Vishnu came in the form of Krishna in Dvapar yuga the world was more polluted with adharmis so Krishna did some leelas and tricked the adharmis(beaucse of his this nature he is also called leeladhar) he also did the war of Kurukshetra where at once he killed almost all the adharmis and freeed mother earth
So,if Krishna would have came in the in Treta Yuga he would have done the same deeds as Rama did because they both are the two faces of the same coin named Vishnu
The condition and the society of both the yugas were different and the amount of toxicity and adharmis were also different so when Vishnu came he performed the deeds accordingly taught us Mariyada in the form of Rama and gave us the knowledge of Geeta in the form of Krishna
Conclusion
Even if Krishna was there in Ramayana nothing would have changed because Rama and Krishna are not different they are Lord Vishnu himself who manifested himself in different Yugas to free earth from Adharmis
