Alone in the dark
Ps1

Ah, this reminds of Alone In The Dark: A New Nightmare, which has 2D pre-rendered backgrounds but the characters have lights you can use.
I thought that was a really nice touch since backgrounds you generally wouldn't interact with in those games; just 3D models that stand out looking obvious in the decor.

Anyway Tales of Phantasia looks like a fun game. SNES version better then?

IIIRC the game constantly loaded both backgrounds on screen, the lit and the non-lit one, so they can be switched at will. Reason why that game had atrociously long loading times during every camera angle change.
