Well, listing the things that are enjoyable about Lufia II would be a little pointless if all of these were things you hate, and you'll just ask "yeah, so what's fun about that?". What do you dislike so much about it?`
If it's difficulty you seek, you won't find it with Lufia II, at any rate. It is unfortunately a piss easy game, and if that's enough to ruin it, then that's that.

This would be my other favorite one I think. One thing that is never mentioned about this map is the fakeout during the south region. You are going through the hardest part of the game yet and you have finally reached the desert area with high mountains that you see Charlock Castle surrounded by. One would immediately think that this maze you are going through is going to take you up to the castle itself, but nope, it just takes you back down to the big swamp that you probably passed by in excitement thinking you were getting close to the end of the game.

man, I think the beginning of terranigma up through the start of the human age is some of the best action-rpg gaming on the snes. the gameplay can be challenging, the story is awesome, and the graphics and sound are terrific too. i played IoG first, but just never found anything redeeming about that game, even though I really wanted to.

RPG maps bother me. The landmasses rarely pass from side to side like you would expect from a globe laid into a flat map.

I should have seen this coming. Also, I wanna play Trigger again. I think I may. It's funny, every time I replay CT I play from fresh and go for the best ending. Never did get all the endings.

Wouldn't it be more like some kind of mathematical abomination torus where the inner and outer edges are the same length?

>terranigma was more of a step slightly back and didn't seem to have the same focus as the other two
I feel like IoG is more caught in the middle between Soul Blazer's addicting arcade-y gameplay and Terranigma's great story (though it does meander at some parts). It seems to succeed at neither of the two aspects and thus falls short compared to both Soul Blazer and Terranigma.
But then I wouldn't even say IoG is better gameplay-wise than Terranigma. Combat is a bit dull, though level-design is generally better.
