Soul Reaver 1&2 Remastered Trailer Breakdown

[@gusgramajo5909]

We all deserve this, but you guys who kept the fandom alive with all the content, analysis, an retrospectives... You deserve it more. It's good time to be a LoK fan indeed!!

[@dasunguy]

The FMV will be upscaled with ML, just like in the Tomb Raider remasters, I guess. My biggest hope is that they got the studio audio recordings from the archives. Just to get rid of the compression on the voice lines.

[@VintageGameRoom]

So moving to see you emotional at the end of the video. It felt like ages since we last played a Legacy of Kain game. I am emotional too, it feels like the early 2000s all over again. Growing up with these games was such an experience. And now we get to show them to our friends, our children and everyone around us. So excited to see the LoK family happy after all these years. Much love to everyone out there. ❤❤ We deserve this

[@igotnopatience1717]

Pre ordered already. Did you see the map they added? We will finally be able to correlate BO1 map to SR1. I already drew some conclusions, seems raziels territory is vasserbunde, its original river that went into the lake of tears was diverted to flood the drowned abbey, which would be probably steinchenchoe. Silenced cathedral seems to be uschtemheim/janos retreat. And we finally got an explanation to the lighthouse inland. It seems to sit at the edge of the termogent forest, it is probably meant to help people navigate the swamp

[@papapapa16]

I thought the silenced cathedral was Avernus?

[@igotnopatience1717]

@@papapapa16 that was always a popular theory, but from the map, it really feels it lines up better with uschtenheim. While I think the silenced cathedral is spiritually related to avernus, I never thought they could be the same building, after all, avernus was moments from crumbling down in blood omen 1, it probably was long gone by soul reaver 1, ai always saw the silenced cathedral as more of a spiritual sucessor, maybe made by descendants that had a memory of avernus. Anyway, even though uschtenhem lines up better, avernus was just next to it, so it could be the same overall areas or somewhere inbetween

*Sanctus Christus* was the perfect choice for the trailer (and I agree, it's such a Raina Audron thing to do). Thank you for your continued coverage, and this in-depth analysis! Væ Victis! 🍻

[@Slampbell]

What makes you feel it was the perfect choice? I personally thought it was a little lazy, considering it was already used for an old SR1 trailer.

[@WilliamFaure]

@@Slampbell Hey, well I think it was perfect *especially* because it was used for that old SR1 trailer! 👍 For many, it all started with that one trailer, after all. And now, it's starting again, but also for a new generation, hopefully. Using this piece for the new trailer proves we've come full circle, and it fits the theme of death and rebirth from the game. Because the series is effectively being "reborn" and as such, with this comeback, the snake is eating its tail. *History repeats itself!* 🐍

@@WilliamFaure Y'know what, I like that.

The music for the trailer was so amazing! It looks like they know what they are doing and they are doing it very well. Melchiah looks incredible, he was THE character to test in a remaster. Can't wait to fight that boss battle again. I'm as excited as you are about this. This is a great time to be alive!

[@UnabashedNerd]

I'm excited. Still some of the best voice acting and dialogue in a game to this date. I'm looking forward to the smoother gameplay

[@kaimobley5324]

That and we get to fight the Priestess and Turel. Also fixing the Soul Absorbing bcus many times the Souls would go in a circle before finally getting to you or they'd just continuously go in a circle if you're too high up or at a certain angle

I hope that we will soon get a remaster of Blood Omen 2 as well, with better graphics and improved controls.

[@Slodsworth]

Definitely this, very underrated game in the series due to the awful controls but get passed them and it's awesome

[@pyronautsenshi1765]

I would like to see the gameplay overhauled on BL2 was underrated but the mechanics in my opinion were so much improved upon in Defiance.

[@AnotherMagicalday]

I really hope so I loved that game!

[@Lunaria.Praesentia]

​@@Slodsworththe narrative of BO2 feels extremely lacking coming from the absolute genius of Amy Hennig and her team, but it's worth playing at least once for some lore reasons

[@Slodsworth]

I totally agree but it was interesting at least and seeing an early kain and the hilden was awesome. To be fair most people seem to hate the game

[@NebLleb]

I am so hyped that I actually began a playthrough of the first Legacy of Kain adventure, Blood Omen in preparation. Helps that Blood Omen actually still holds up as a solid grown-up Zelda-like adventure and one of the best Vampire games ever. Hell, I even installed Blood Omen 2 and its Conceptual Edition mod so I could play through that after Blood Omen to see how badly Raziel screwed up the timeline during Soul Reaver 2 and to further satiate my appetite. I'm THAT excited.

[@IsraelIvanCastro]

It's such a steal for what we are getting too. I wouldn't mind purchasing the games again in physical form! Keep them coming! And I also hope we get more action figures from NECA or whoever else might create those. Super stocked.

[@விஷ்ணு_கார்த்திக்]

I can't believe this isn't the majority sentiment of the LOK fandom. I'm not big into LOK games(i stayed away mostly cus of boring combat) but even i can tell that a game like that is supposed to be dark. The "remaster" makes it look like a cartoony platformer like Jak&Daxter or something. I thought LOK was supposed to be a dark&foreboding series of games about vampires, now this remaster completely ruins that feeling.

[@alvaronavarro4895]

@@விஷ்ணு_கார்த்திக் Legacy of kain, as a product of it's time or otherwise, always had cartoony character designs. In and out of the game. Dark and gothic, grotesque? Yes! But also cartoony. Raziel and kain have big ass eyes, big ass hands, big ass feet and a very distinct shape language. Cartoony design conventions. It's not necessarily bad that that's the case. The grey and griminess may have been more of a lighting and texturing limitation from back then than anything

[@விஷ்ணு_கார்த்திக்]

quick question: are you or raina involved in the project? She was in Tomb Raider Remastered, wasn't she?

[@jeffcdeleon]

Fantasy Thinking: It would be insane if the reception and financials for SR1&2 combined with the prequel comic encouraged CD to do a remaster of Defiance - then use all the new & updated artifacts from the remasters to create a complete epic Blood Omen remake in the same gameplay style. They could then take some artistic liberties working with the original writers to make some slight retcons just so all 4 titles would flow together narratively and make logistical sense as we all know some of the mythos got a bit muddied from game to game. That would be an amazing opportunity to reward long time fans as well as bring in so many new ones. Regardless, am just so excited we have SOMETHING new brewing in the LOK world. 👍🏻👍🏻

Been following this franchise since the 90's, and was so ready for this but...did it need to be so bright? So cartoonish? The texture pack they used is not suitable for Nosgoth in my opinion. Great video as always Baz. I did not know Kurt Harland was a CD employee, I figured they just licensed him in for the OST because someone was an InSoc fan. Good info!

[@michaelbuick6995]

Completely agree. Too bright and too "clean" looking. Melchiah is definitely a stand out for the worst offender here. Even his underside is well lit literally none of him is in shadow, and his eyes need to be redder, make him properly demonic.

[@surielsolnelees5614]

exactly it quite took away the "scary factor", the atmosphere for me with that as a side note, in the remaster, melchiahs "heads" (skulls) and ribcages are boney, while his legs and arms are fleshy, which is weird on the other hand they indeed did mind his pretty inconspicuous metal mask

[@pyronautsenshi1765]

Looking forward to seeing it release, not quite all my dream of a seamless retelling with both titles as one larger game, though have my pre-order in regardless. My only real criticism is the remastered content now looks too clean in comparison to the gritty original, teaser just feels to have lost some of the Atmosphere that inherent grit brought to the experiences of the first game, sunshine on what was once a misty day. Just hope this leads to further remasters or new releases, i still want a final instalment on Kain’s story to play.

[@andreaven2287]

If I could decide myself, I would love to have the original game and plot with the human city part, the priestess, Turel and Kain death with all the reavers ect... But this would require basicaly a whole new game for the second entry and a whole new story... This would be awesome but not very realistic... Plus the shots of SR2 shows it's the same game so...

It is Crystal clear who caused it. - The Abyss has been unkind to your ears but they do not deceive you, Raziel. The sounds of our world are unchanged.

As soon as I heard about the remake I thought of you. The texture pack you did was great. Unfortunately, flycast has been giving me issues. For example it crashes every time I do a save state.
