The legacy of kain is personally I consider the video game to have the best story-line ever. It is probably the only story-line from a video game that has kept me puzzled in understanding it. This puzzlement lead me to doing a lot of research on the to grasp the meaning behind the game. The central themes so far I've understood in the series are fatalism, man's struggle for free will and some gnosticism. Also discovering that Raziel draws from Joseph Campbell ideas. The storyline for me personally is a great work of literature.

@TalesOfAbsu10 жыл бұрын
tarek baziz probably, but there's a lot of support for Gnosticism. Gnosticism describes a collection of ancient religions whose adherents shunned the material world created by the demiurge and embraced the spiritual world. In Soul Reaver and Soul Reaver 2, Amy Hennig identified "the question of free will in a universe apparently ruled by fate" as the core of the story. Gnosticism, in which "the material world is an illusion, a lie perpetrated by a false and malignant god whose aim is to keep the human soul in darkness and ignorance" and the hero's goal is "knowledge, enlightenment, and the exposure of the truth", helped to formulate Raziel's arc

Literally fell in love with Raziel when I saw a screenshot of this game on the back of a PlayStation magazine. I made up a story in my head that he was some sort of prince. A few years later, I'm shopping at HEB with my mom and in the toy aisle, there is a Raziel action figure. I convince my mom to buy me the figure and also one of Kain. I loved them so much (And she loved me so much) that she bought me 2 of each over time. One set that I could play with, one set that's still in the box. One day at the local video/game rental place, I happened to notice the titles of one of the series, "Legacy of Rain". Turns out it was BO2, but over time I found my way to this game and it has been my favorite ever since.

@theunbearableman I will say: The game mechanics of that genre would translate pretty well to updating LOK and Soul Reaver into the modern era. Keep the core of the original mechanics (puzzles, world shifting, etc) and just give it a modern shine... i'd buy it twice. The original games weren't easy or forgiving, but they were beatable; so a "dark souls-like game" might work out well. Think of Darksiders 3's difficulty. That's palatable to someone like me who loves the story but doesn't want to have to git gud to see it through.

The entire Legacy of Kain series is my passion. Raziel and Nosgoth redefined my character to include my perspective in life. I have this weird feeling of happines when I'm alone. I kinda like the series ended with no conclusion, it makes me feel that Raziel is still here lurking around us searching for answers...

I think they cant/want make legacy of kain great again. It was series for connoisseurs most people dont know about it. It so hard to release new game better then masterpiece like soul riever 1. Even if theymade this game there is not much chance that creating her will earn on yourself. Now developers want make games for friendly for everyone to earn maximum profit (like they try with new legacy of kain game who was cancelled) and thats how developers are killing their greatest game brands .

@projectexplore78866 жыл бұрын
Exactly Mikele, I've just started to write a storyline for a new game and have a few people who want to focus on "reaching the most people". The focus can't be about money. The greats (like the original star wars) never worried about putting shitty characters in there like jarjardinks just to appease a certain age group and destroy the franchise. I think all of my media favorites (game/video) follow that rule.

Just come back after a long old while to give this thing a listen. It reminds me of the days I used to get completely lost in videogames, this being a major player. The cathedral music still sends a chill up my spine, just as tunes like ruined city fill me once again with intrigue. What a perfect score. I worry a little if I play the game it won't live up to my last playthrough, I remember thinking the world was pretty sizable but always wanting more, but in a time where the possibilities seem almost endless, this is still a thing of beauty. What a game!

I miss this game. I used to listen to its soundtrack religiously. I think, if this game was to be remade, I think the people who made the Darksiders games should do it. I can think of no company that could do it better. Im sure they would give it the proper respect it continues to deserve. This game is a legend in its own right, being also among the first games to function without a loading screen during the PS1 Era.

This game seriously need a remaster or reboot. With the current gen and trend open world game like Horizon Zero Dwan, God of Ragnarok and Legend of Zelda tears of the kingdom, exploring the world of Nosgoth sure is breathtaking. Start with Kain starting as vampire and follow with Raziel path for revenge with changing to spectral and materil realm. Seeing from afar the pillars that reach the sky, a remaster of Legacy of kain series sure what fans want.

Este juego fue mi infancia entera y doy gracias porque en poca o gran medida me hizo RAZONAR y PENSAR para poder ir descubriendo cada secreto del juego que, al ser un mapa abierto para que exploraras donde quisieras, era difícil hacer conjeturas para resolver cada misterio que se presentaba. Odiaba a mis amigos que se la pasaban jugando Winning Eleven y demás, creo que pocos nos aventuramos a terminar este juegazo con un poco de ayuda de las guías que vendían en los puestos de revistas. Qué tiempos aquellos en los que se hacían videojuegos que te cautivaran tanto y que te hicieran desarrollar tus habilidades.

I had the honour of surpassing my lord. For my transgression, I earned a new kind of reward. Agony. There was only one possible outcome, my eternal damnation. I, Raziel, was to suffer the fate of traitors and weaklings: to burn forever in the bowels of the lake of the dead." Tumbling, burning with white hot fire, I plunged into the depths of the abyss. Unspeakable pain, relentless agony, time ceased to exist. Only this torture and a deepening hatred of the hypocrisy that damned me to this hell. An eternity passed and my torment receded, bringing me back from the precipice of madness. The descent had destroyed me, and yet, I lived.
