But each game is so radically different... In some ways. Such as magic... In the first few games, they mooched magic off crystals and gems... In the later games it turned into a unified planetary entity/spirit, like Gaia and the lifestream... Sorry to break it to you, but they're not the same universe... Not even thousands, hell millions of years apart could magic crystals turn into a unified planetary energy source. So... Nyah...
