* BlockPuzzle - The Millennium Puzzles. No, [[Anime/YuGiOh not that one]].
* BolivianArmyEnding - [[spoiler:Subverted during TheStinger, as the heroes are shown to have come out alive and unharmed, though everyone thinks they killed the guy who headed Filgaia's biggest religion.]]
* BonusLevelOfHell - One hundred floors. No save points whatsoever. BonusBoss from hell, Ragu O Ragla, waiting for you at the end. You have to fight him twice. In. A. Row. And he is even stronger the second time around. Have fun!
* CartographySidequest - Completing the entire map nets you a nice bonus.
* {{Catchphrase}} - Janus is "just trying to do things efficiently".
* ChekhovsGunman - 
** One in particular stands out, spanning the ''entire damn game.'' [[spoiler: Beatrice, the final boss, shows up in the [[StealthHiBye first ten minutes]], and repeatedly shows up for small portions of cutscenes throughout the game as an almost unnoticeable side character until she reveals herself as the Woman behind the Man who was behind 3 People who were behind One Man. Yes.]]

* CyberneticsEatYourSoul - The Metal Demons are a weird version of this; it's stated pretty clearly that it was ''after'' they became monsters that they took up cybernetics, but since no hero uses cybernetic abilities, it still stays in this category.
* DarkerAndEdgier - It's a toss-up between Wild Arms II and III as to which is the bleakest game in the series.
* DeathWorld - The state of Filgaia in this game is the absolute lowest in the entire series.
* DiscOneFinalBoss - Happens several times, actually; Virginia and her team fight what appears to be their ultimate nemesis and defeat him/them only to find an even bigger threat looming on the horizon. Interestingly, the intro movie continues to change throughout the game to reflect this. The game feels very much like several seasons of a multi-arc anime because of this.
* TheDogWasTheMastermind - [[spoiler:Beatrice, the purple-haired little girl.]]
* EvilLaugh - Once the antagonists (with the exception of the ''really'' dangerous ones) begin to lose it, you will hear them laughing out loud like mad men quite often.
* EvolvingCredits - Another series tradition. The "outro" for when you quit the game after saving shows a beautiful scene, with a sung score, detailing the party's level, stats, and equipment as scenes of Virginia's life slowly drift by.

* LostForever - Didn't trigger the events to begin the Telepath Tower sidequest in time? Too bad, no EX File Key for you!
* LostTechnology - The Council of Seven was founded to try and revive it, and the one major religion on Filgaia (the Order of the Ark of Destiny) is essentially dedicated to it (even having their headquarters in a millenia-old GenerationShip!).
* TheManBehindTheMan - ''[[UpToEleven Three]]'' [[UpToEleven times]]: [[spoiler:The Prophets]] behind Janus, [[spoiler:Siegfried]] behind [[spoiler:The Prophets]] and [[spoiler:Beatrice]] behind [[spoiler:''everyone'']].
** Though it seems more like [[spoiler:Beatrice and Siegfried were enemies, since when Siegfried brought the 'dream-demon' up he more or less stated 'But in this world she can't really hurt me', not to mention the visions she gave to everybody seemed more to be towards the goal of stopping Siegfried before she made her move.]] So the last one was more of a case of Villain-on-Villain action.
* TheMaze - The final dungeon and [[BonusLevel the Abyss]] are both like this.
* [[MeddlingParents Meddling Grandmother]] - Late during the second act, just before going to the last shrine, Halle, Gallows's grandma, outright reveals to her grandson that she had an hidden agenda, and that she intentionally orchestrated the events of the game's beginning, in which she succeeded to bring back home Gallows, and set him up on the rails of his quest and duties (which he ran away from at the beginning of the game).
* MegaManning - [[spoiler:Maya Schrodinger]] can do this by reading comic books.
* MexicanStandoff - The "Select a Character" screen is a stand-off between the main characters, and you play through their backstories before the stand-off gets resolved.
* MonsterArena - Gunner's Heaven.
* NewGamePlus- Epically. The EX File Keys, which require doing some ''insane'' side quests, are used in a New Game Plus to unlock things. Good luck getting them all.
