Last scene and credits of this amazing ending.

I let the music play for a while at the end...I had to.

Usually I just post stuff like "I've enjoyed this," or "This was great!" at the end of my playthroughs, but I'm going to be a bit more thorough with this one.

First, I need to apologize to my viewers. This playthrough took me two years to do. Why? Well, mostly because of my negligence, but I will say this: I had a lot of changes around that time of my life, such as starting college, and these changes and new lifestyles consume a lot more time than I once had.

That being said, let's talk a bit about this game and series. The artistic presentation of Terranigma is, undoubtedly, top-notch, and this embodies a lot more than just graphics. Beautiful visuals, a soundtrack that rivals games such as Final Fantasy, and the game itself has a beautiful flow and just awesome overall feel. My only real problem with the game was that the translation could be awkward at times, and I feel as if I didn't always get the whole picture of what was going on.

When I think of this game, I think that the developers tried to combine the best of both worlds from Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia. Soul Blazer didn't have much a plot, but had a fun combat system. Illusion of Gaia's combat system was fun, but not quite as innovative as Soul Blazers. However, Illusion of Gaia had an amazing story that emphasized serious concepts that you would not see in most games back then. Terranigma tried to have an innovative battle system like Soul Blazer, and an amazing story like Illusion of Gaia. Terranigma also tried to make a different kind of story that was both silly and epic, because Terranigma's story emphasized more surreal elements, versus Illusion of Gaia's realistic serious element.

I'd say my favorite still is Illusion of Gaia, but partly because of nostalgia. It was the only one I played and beat on the SNES as a kid. But, I feel that this game will grow on me as I get older. Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend all three games of this series. They are all extremely underrated games.

Thanks to all who actually took the time to read this long-winded analysis, and thanks to all who took the time to watch my videos. You guys make my little corner of the internet much more enjoyable.
