* LaterInstallmentWeirdness: Since it's partly also based on the short-lived ''Uru'' spinoff, this game carries a lot of major differences from the previous four installments, chief among them being that it's the only game in the whole series to use real-time 3D environments instead of pre-rendered. It's also the only game in the series where the player does not play as the Stranger.
