Alls I cans says ish WOW...

[Orca Wail]

Wheeee!

I did something very, very STUPID.

I've been downloading demos.

Games are banned in my household. They are the avatars of evil and all things anti-scholastic. This, yes, is mostly my own fault, however, even in times of peace games are denied passage.

I downloaded everything I've missed these years...Oddworld demos, JP:OG demos, Star Wars games demos, GhostMaster demo...

until...

God...godgodgodgodGOD!

I have met, in my demo downloading, a very interesting character. I think I found my new Monkey Island.

Razeil has devoured my soul.

I have discovered...SOUL REAVER!

Its hard to get so excited over a dark game...but this I just enjoy beyond description...with human words, anyway...njknmvd5g..

Is the whole thing worth pursuing? Fans? Questions? Comments?

*runs off, glides away*

Personally, I was never a big fan of Soul Reaver. Didn't like the gameply, concept, or idea. And the main character, aside from a seriously cool name, didn't seem to have much developement in my eyes. At anyrate, I felt (after playing the demo some years back) like I wasn't being fair. I played it at a friends house and it seemed rather bland to me, still.

But the way I see it, if you love the demo so much in the areas I didn't...you'll love the game.


Couldn't possibly cost all that much either, could it? And most retailers have that whole "played it? return it!" deal.




Happy hunting!

Never heard of it, what's it like?

There will be a special edition of Legacy Of Kain: Defiance which includes part 1 and 2, and it will cost the same as the standard edition. I wasn't able to find the PC version for sale, although Eidos' web site says there will be one.
I saw a trailer on a magazine's DVD and it looked pretty neat. It said that reviewers thought Defiance was the best of the series, which means little to me since I haven't played any of them.

Uber.
uber-uber.

Guybrush, I think we played different demos. This was HARD.]

any way, after years of difficult puzzles, impossible bosses, and dead-ends, I DESERVE a little cheap-ness...

It's very possible we did. All I remember is it being very confusing and there's a pool somewhere in the middle of the starting room.



And yes, everyone deserves cheapness after certain games. For instance, after beating Zelda: Ocarana of Time (and after crying that it was ove), I bought Tribes 2. Now THAT's quality action gaming right there. Too bad the modding community destroyed everything that was good about the game.

The edition that includes the 2 predecessors (different franchises of the Legacy Of Kain series: Blood Omen 2 and Soul Reaver 2) is a Germany-only thingie - click.

I loved soul reaver.

I loved the idea of two separate worlds that run side by side. I loved the concept. I loved the world itself and the way you could be good or evil. I loved the atmosphere.

I thought the story left a bit to be desired, but hey! There are other Soul Reaver games that explain a lot more of the story and also one for the PC that's a bit old now. That explains how Kain double crossed them all I think.

I love it
