Dumah - This Boss Was Tricky · SOUL REAVER Remastered [Part 5]

[@richardlllbuzas]

Your triple kill at 51:40 was just as epic as possible : D

[@hotjoe-wl8gc]

Hey LIZZ, I missed a bit of the streams with the game so I can watch it now here. Thanks for the series of this classic two ones ❤😊

[@DG_Haus]

I remember the first time I played this as a kid in 1999 I stuffed around with those two statues for ages before leading him to the furnace out of pure frustration not expecting it to be the answer because how far it is. Looking back its a great tension piece having him chase you for that long. I always loved how the boss fights were a puzzle rather than dodging a charging opponent and hitting them for ten minutes. Finding each boss to see what they looked like and when you get a new ability which was exciting for each one, this was such a creative and fun game.

[@Cothfotmeoo]

Awesome job with this one! A cool boss fight. Well played.

[@JN-hs5xl]

There's a fun conversation you can have with him if you switch to the spectral realm before pulling the thingies out of his body.

[@LIZZgame]

ah damn!

[@HiFiListener]

I didn't know that either. And I played that game several times.

[@chriswakefield6469]

The ruined city theme is my favorite track from this game

[@jasonbanta5698]

Dumah’s city music is so good! Also if u haven’t already… try sweeping the reaver through an open flame 😁

[@trueSconox]

18:36 It's a thing of beauty to watch a new bee. xD

[@SchwaWasHere]

1:07:34 funny enough that was the plan for the original game It's also possible to obtain via cheat code, super convenient 😂

[@darthkhodos4218]

Why the chat hasn't told you that if you crouch walk, or aim stance, that you won't fall off.

[@trueSconox]

3:42 Lizz, belonging to the map: be happy to have one, back in the days, we had to draw our own maps.

[@kuro-koma]

The map is pretty useless though. If they wanted to add a functional map it would've been helpful if there was a proper mapped out world and not just an overworld with icons.

[@trueSconox]

@kuro-koma The map is like Raziels wings. Other bullshit, but still not completly bare of use. 😜

[@HiFiListener]

I guess it's more about the statistic which area holds still extras not taken.

[@suburbantimewaster9620]

This boss certainly looks tricky.

[@LongShen1985]

I missed part 4 of this first Soul Reaver

[@D2daICE]

Do you mean a "Schwenker" (tripod grill)? ;)

[@Kazuha5555]

We love you ❤️ 🫀🫀🫀🫀

[@adamhonest-sw3xx]

Hey lizz can you play all soul reaver games even defiance from pc

[@LIZZgame]

maybe some time!

[@VenomBroly]

The game is less clean on my switch :/

[@LIZZgame]

it better, my PC is a killer machine lol

[@D2daICE]

Less clean? On my OLED it looks pretty great and sharp. Are you maybe playing on the old graphics instead of the remastered graphics?

[@BezoRazo]

1:02:01 -- Uhh... wtf? DId you reload your game? He is NOT supposed to be restaked if you simply leave the room and return. I've done it a million times. If you didn't reload, then you've experienced a very weird glitch 😄

[@LIZZgame]

the game crashed mid-fight, yea. So I had to restart the whole thing, but since I had no progress, it wasn't big of a deal.

[@pedronavaja4837]

Dumas's constricting gift, except for merely solving puzzles, is probably the most useless technique in my book. Which is probably why they didn't bring it back for the rest of the series. LOL

[@kaimobley5324]

What's funny about it is they reused this very power in the Newest Sonic Game. The moment I saw Sonic do this I IMMEDIATELY thought of Soul Reaver

[@HiFiListener]

22:46 And she did it again, reaching the exit of a trail without entering the beginning (glitch) 😂.

[@trueSconox]

8:25 and so she decided, to not do a 100% run.

[@mog4993]

You know if you wouldve went into the spirit realm at dumahs body you couldve talked to his spirit for some xtra dialogue.

[@LIZZgame]

that's cool!

[@Cinemaphile7783]

There's an trophy/achievement for doing it too

[@mus0rmus1c3]

Anyone have issues with crashing during this boss fight on PS5?

[@GeorgeSearsSolidusSnake]

@@mus0rmus1c3 Happened to me once. I was escaping from him and jumped on that spike monument you drop to break the gate. Raziel got stuck for some reason and the game crashed.

[@TheAwsumFunk]

Back in the drowned abbey (Rahab's territory) there is a warp gate, but then you have to go through a door that only opens from one direction with a TK blast. To the best of my knowledge, there's no way to get back, which is dumb. I ran into this problem the other day because I was doing a 100% playthrough and had to get a health upgrade, then I had to swim all the way back to Raziel's territory to get to a warp gate. Stupid lol.

[@trueSconox]

9:53 Hate to debunk you, but that are ashes.

[@LIZZgame]

I'll pretend it's snow.

[@Scyth0r]

Unfortunately, I feel a lot of exploration and puzzle games aren't the best for streaming, because there's always pressure to constantly move forward and make progress. In my opinion you lose a lot of atmosphere and nuance from that,especially in these games. For example, there's more Ariel says if you keep going back to her, as well as understanding why Kane placed his throne at the foot of the Pillars, and why there was an empty grave. But as long as everyone is enjoying themselves, that's the most important thing.

[@LIZZgame]

not only for streaming, for content creation in general I think. It can be tricky to find the right balance. Some love a 100% playthrough, especially the fans of a game, but most would rather you'd get on and play mostly the main story. I sometimes do exploration and sidequests off-camera and focus on the main stuff on stream. But that was hard in this game, I didn't want to accidentally spoil things for myself.

[@Scyth0r]

​@@LIZZgame - Definitely. if there's one series where you want to avoid spoilers, it's this one.

[@nylnoble1836]

i know that you watch some hint in youtube to beat that monster

[@LIZZgame]

@@nylnoble1836 nope. But believe what you will

[@Rahab111222]

Turel is missing from this game. He comes back in later games. There's a cool explanation why he's missing that ties into the first Blood Omen game.

[@BezoRazo]

Spoiler

[@TheAwsumFunk]

Every time I watch a streamer play this game, they just go straight for the bosses and miss all the hidden content. It looks like it's about to happen again. This game rewards the explorative backtracker.

[@LIZZgame]

I can't speak for everyone, but exploration can be quite boring for a viewer if the person takes a while to find things. Seeing someone running around aimlessly is not very entertaining, is it? I was looking for things, as I was going, and just didn't find anything, or much. It's not like I was intentionally walking past everything to go straight for the main objective. In addition to that, if I understood correctly, I could've found spells and more health items, and I didn't really need it, I didn't die once in either of the two games.

[@TheAwsumFunk]

@LIZZgame it's not really about living or dying. As a fan, it's just disappointing to see so much of the game not even get the chance to be appreciated.

[@LIZZgame]

@TheAwsumFunk As I said, I don't ignore things when I see them, I just didn't find them.

[@solomiguex]

I also finished it the first time without finding any secrets back in ps1, if it weren't for the cinematic demo that I start playing before sitting down to play, I would never have known about them 😅

[@TheAwsumFunk]

@@solomiguex man, I just remember seeing things I couldn't get to, so as I unlocked abilities, I went back to explore. The world seemed so big back then, and I was completely immersed in it. It's pretty small compared to modern games lol.

[@abx786]

i love this game for the sake of nostalgia but the level design is infuriatingly bad and tedious.

[@LIZZgame]

Soul Reaver 2 was worse imho haha

[@Jungle-m4c]

hello sister

[@Leonardo-id6tm]

Did he kill you and you just skipped that part?

[@LIZZgame]

no, my game crashed
