![]() ![]() I will not be getting the gog.com iteration simply because the dreamcast version is much better- not to mention that I dislike puzzle games/platformers more than any other game genre if and when gog.com ports the game from the dreamcast version and/or re-works the game to near dreamcast quality: I will not be re-purchasing these titles. Gog.com has a money back (compatibility) guarantee as well- unlike the overwhelming vast majority of the downloadable gaming industry. I already possess the steam version of the entire Legacy of Kain series, however- I like to invest in the gog.com version anyway as it is better to "own" any game rather than have it with greater restrictions that are more at variance with what has been traditionally construed as "ownership". It is 75% off for the next 34 ($1.49 per title) hours yet apparently neither the steam version nor the gog.com version was ported from the better dreamcast version. Ordinarily I would prefer the gog.com version-as it is DRM free. LEGACY OF KAIN: SOUL REAVER, SOUL REAVER, LEGACY OF KAIN, CRYSTAL DYNAMICS, and the CRYSTAL DYNAMICS logo are trademarks of the Crystal Dynamics group of companies.The gog.com version- according to one of the rare < 5 star reviews- is a playstation one port, whereas the dreamcast version is far superior graphically. LEGACY OF KAIN: SOUL REAVER © 1999 Crystal Dynamics group of companies. Fascinating, wide-reaching story about betrayal and vengeance presented in so convincing and believable way that it really makes you thirst for souls of your adversaries.Ability to shift between two overlapping realms (spectral and material) creates unique puzzle-solving possibilities.Gothic atmosphere set by stylized visuals and moody music that dynamically changes with the environment.With a gripping story, fluent gameplay, and a number so unique features it is clearly one of the most prominent tiles in the gaming history and it is surely worth checking out. Soul Reaver is a chapter in a series of masterpieces. But beware, because both of those planes are anything but a safe place and something that is harmless on one side can kill you on the other. Both worlds overlap each other in a way that allows Raziel to overcome obstacles in one world by simply shifting to the other. One of those improvements is the ability to shift between spectral and material plane. Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver continues the story from Blood Omen in a very clever and interesting way while also adding many new gameplay features. He becomes a soul reaver with one purpose and one purpose only-kill Kain. ![]() A millenium has passed while Raziel lay forgotten before he is brought back to existence by The Elder God. Jealous Kain tore off Raziel’s wings and cast him down into the Lake of the Dead. Kain, being evil and jealous vampire, punished Raziel for his "transgression". Ages have passed by and during that time you have been has “blessed” with something no other vampire has-wings. Your name is Raziel and you are one of those lieutenants. To help him maintain control over such large territory he chooses five lieutenants to command his vampire forces. Kain has created an empire in the world of Nosgoth where almost all humans have been exterminated. Many years after the events in Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain.
