Have I got this straight in my head:

Illusion of Gaia was the second in a trilogy: Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia and a third one that wasn't released in North America. And was that third one Terranigma or a different game?

It was Terranigma.

Holy shit I played the fuck out of this game as a kid. Completely forgot it existed until just now. I wonder how badly it's aged

I've never played it, but judging by videos of gameplay, pretty badly. Most 3D games from that era have.

Sounds right to me. Thanks for reminding me about my abandoned Soul Blazer playthrough 😬.

Edit: Shout out to Enix being awesome before the merger.

Soul Blazer is a melancholy game. You start it up and the world has been emptied of beings, throughout the game you restore beings to existence, and yet it doesn't cheer up.
