For the Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia players:
Do any of you have an idea of what the point was for that "resting" thing?

I found this article which tries to give an explanation, but what do you all think?
>>
When you stop playing, the entire world of the game itself sleeps, because it only lives when you play it.
>>
Soul Blazer is my favorite of the three.

>Illusion of Gaia, which may be Quintet’s best-known effort.
Was it actually well known? It's always the one I forget about.

It definitely sold the most, IoG sold 300,000 unit in the US alone. Unfortunately I couldn't find a real number of sales for the game but IoG is most definitely the one that sold best. It's interesting how so many here seem to like it least, I enjoy it quite a lot. I hear a lot of people complain about a shitty localization but from what I have read the original Japanese is just as bizarre, take that as you will. I really need to replay the other two, played IoG last summer and enjoyed it a lot.

Actually just checked, this is what I found.
Soul Blazer- 295,000 units worldwide.

Illusion of Gaia- 650,000 units worldwide.

Terranigma- 200,000 units in Japan, couldn't find anything for worldwide.

what about Actraiser?
>>
>>3414020
It's basically telling you to turn it off and go outside. Earthbound did the same thing, it's based on Dragon Quest's save function.
>>
>>3419307
Terranigma only sold in Japan/PAL regions so I wouldn't be surprised that the numbers would be just around Soul Blazer's.
>>
>>3419280
Yes, it's the one that Nintendo published
>>
What was the point of choosing the option to not continue after saving the game in IoT/IoG? The music changed to a slow and atmospheric one and you couldn't do anything (except hitting the reset button).

the narrative illusion of a world that exists as a separate entity even as it waits for your involvement so that it's existence can have meaning
>>
>>3419319
Actraiser 1- 620,000 units worldwide (400,00 in Japan, 180,000 in US, 40,000 in Europe)

Actraiser 2- 180,000 units worldwide (estimate of 40,000 in Japan and Europe together and 100,000 in the US)
>>
>>3419615
My mistake, for 40,000 copies sold in Japan and Europe each, not together.
