Comment on What games can you recommend that didn't get the appreciation that they deserved?

Agreed on the holy trinity. But even though you’re devout to the holy trinity, sometimes there are temptations.
Illusion of Gaia is that cool friend you haven’t seen in a long time who shows up, and you bond and reminisce like you haven’t been separated at all. Then you discover Illusion of Gaia has friends you haven’t met, and they roll together in a cool club called The Soul Blazer Trilogy.
My favorite thing about Illusion of Gaia has to be the fact that the manual contained a complete walkthrough of the game, at least in the North American release. Unless it was the same energy as “the dumb Americans ~(who invented the genre and introduced it to the East)~ don’t understand RPGs, so we’ll make Mystic Quest really simple and dumbed down for them” I don’t knwo why they did that.
I remember when I played IoG and Terranigma years later and was super angry that I hadn’t heard of either back in the day lol
bruh if final fantasy isnt on the list, that list is wrong.
